Chapter 970 Enigmatic Connections “Firstly, I thoroughly enjoyed my twith Lucy earlier,” Alexis began, his tone reflective.

“Secondly, while I appreciate everyone's intentions, I can’t help but sense Soren’s hostility towards me,” he continued, his words measured.

“Perhaps he doesn’t harbor any malicious intent but rather feels threatened by the presence of another boy in the household who shares similarities with him,” Alexis theorized, drawing from his own unique upbringing.

Despite being six months younger than Soren, Alexis exuded a maturity beyond his years.

Damien narrowed his gaze, probing. “Are you genuinely interested in pursuing a connection with Lucy Staber?” “Is Lucy Staber her name?” Alexis responded, a smile gracing his features as his brows arched playfully. “It does have a pleasant ring to it.” “In that case, if I were to follow her, could I adopt the nAlexis Staber?” he inquired, his eyes gleaming with anticipation.

Damien's eyes narrowed slightly. “That's a possibility,” he conceded, though a furrow creased his brow momentarily.

In that fleeting moment, Damien’s mind wrestled with a sense of familiarity.

The nAlexis sparked a memory as if someone had once mentioned naming a future son Alexis and a daughter Alexa.

But for a fleeting moment, he struggled to recall that individual's identity.

Turning his attention back to the young boy before him, Damien remarked, “You're quite an enigma.” “Why haven't you askedto assist you in locating your biological parents? Instead, you seem eager forto facilitate your connection with a lady you've just met?” Damien pressed, his curiosity piqued.

“Because my biological parents... they don’t deserve it,” Alexis replied candidly, his voice tinged with resolve.

“Regardless of the circumstances that led to my separation from them, they don’t deserve to be called my parents. So, I'd rather forge my own path and live well independently.” “Ms. Cherise, I am convinced that you've been misled,” Soren declared earnestly, his voice concerned as he sat in the children’s room on the second floor.

Analyzing the situation with a seriousness beyond his years, Soren addressed Cherise. “That 1/3 Chapter 970 Enigmatic Connections Alexis, who typically displays maturity and seldom sheds tears, why did he suddenly break down so easily? It's evident he’s attempting to garner your sympathy.” Cherise, seated on Serafina’s bed and engaged in folding clothes, pursed her lips thoughtfully. She cast a gentle glance towards Soren. “Why shouldn't Alexis cry? He's just a child, younger than you. Are children not permitted to express their emotions?” “It’s not about whether children can cry,” Soren responded, his lips forming a tight line. “But rather, the authenticity of his tears. Don’t you replace his display of emotion to be overly contrived?” Cherise paused momentarily, her expression grave as she considered Soren’s perspective. Eventually, she shook her head with conviction. “I don’t see it that way.” Soren was momentarily at a loss for words.

His father had often remarked that Cherise retained the sinnocence she had five years ago when they first met after she lost her memory.

Was she truly this naive five years ago? J Soren glanced at Cherise, a sense of helplessness washing over him. Despite his concerns, he couldn't deny her enduring charm.

“Well, she does have her own allure,” he admitted to himself. “Perhaps Mr. Damien is drawn to this particular [Ey PE In the ward of Adania Hospital, the atmosphere was tense as a doctor meticulously changed the dressing for Sebastian, who lay in bed enduring intense pain.

At his bedside, a certain man sat silently, his face contorted in agony, yet he uttered not a single word.

Despite the evident strain in his expression and the telltale signs of his grip on the bedsheets, which had turned white from the pressure, he remained stoic.

“Mr. Weiss is truly remarkable,” a middle-aged man who had been waiting on the sidelines remarked softly, wiping the sweat from his brow as he observed the scene unfold.

After the doctor completed the task and departed, Sebastian casually wiped the cold sweat from his forehead before turning to the middle-aged man with a grave expression. “Has the DNA test report been dispatched to the testing center?” The middle-aged man nodded fervently. “Yes, it has. I received the application and immediately rushed here to inform you...
