Chapter 85
Carlos raced all the way, his mind racing as well.
Upon careful consideration, aside from the roasted beef, Vivian had many things that were similar to Vera’s.
When she first appeared, why did she show up at Vera’s grave? How was she able to win Neil’s favor so quickly?
And why did her daughter resemble Vera so much but not Vivian?
Carlos had come up with numerous speculations in his mind until he drove into the community where Vivian and James resided.
From afar, he saw Vivian holding two children, waiting at the entrance of the floor in the dew–laden night. When the exhausted James walked towards them, the faces of the three immediately lit up with smiles. Content © copyrighted by NôvelDrama.Org.
“Daddy!” Catherine and Samuel ran towards James with their short legs.
James crouched down, opened his arms, and welcomed the two children into his embrace.
Carlos abruptly stepped on the brakes, turned off the engine, and switched off the headlights. He seemed unworthy of disturbing such a heartwarming scene of a family of four.
“Let me give you a good kiss.” James affectionately kissed the cheeks of the two children, holding one in each hand, and walked towards Vera.
Carlos sat in the pitch–black car and saw the light in Vivian’s eyes under the streetlamp.
That kind of radiance that only appeared when a woman saw her loved one. He had
pure and once seen it in Vera’s eyes. Unfortunately, he could no longer possess that unadulterated love.
A sense of sadness welled up in Carlos’s mind,
A faint sarcasm curled up at the corner of Carlos’s lips. He actually came all the way here to witness their affections.
Since James wanted to deal with him and wanted to use Vivian to gain an advantage, it was certain that he would train Vivian well. What was so special about her being able to make roasted beef with the same taste?

His deep and cold gaze dimmed. Carlos restarted the sports car, turned the steering wheel, and left the community.
The shiny car lights dazzled Vera’s family. Vera hurriedly covered the eyes of the two children, saying, “That’s strange. It seems like Carlos’s car.”
Vera felt that she must have been mistaken. Even if Carlos was out of his mind, he wouldn’t come looking for her. He was probably still with Averie.
“Let’s go back.” James carried the two children into the elevator, and Vera hurriedly followed.
It wasn’t until the moment the elevator doors closed that all four of them let out a sigh of relief simultaneously.
“Mommy, did I do a good job just now?” Catherine was already prepared, waiting for praise.
“Hurry up and come down. Do you want to tire your uncle out?” Vera quickly carried the two children down.
The scene just now was only for the Monroe family’s bodyguards who were guarding outside.
When James heard that Carlos had kicked Vera out, he specially designed that. The main reason was that he was worried Carlos would harm Vera, so he wanted to demonstrate Vera’s position in his heart to him.
After returning to their apartment and coaxing the two children to sleep, they began to discuss the plans for the future.
Vera felt sorry for James for all the hard work he had done for her, so she personally gave him a massage. She was very knowledgeable about massage. After a few strokes, James felt a sense of relaxation throughout his body.
“What’s your plan for the future? If Carlos really decides to save the Powell family, have you figured out how to bring him down?”
Since Vera couldn’t personally cure Neil, she had to contribute to bringing down the Monroe Group.
