Chapter 268
“No chance?” Adrian chuckled softly. “How do you know if I have a chance or not p>
After learning that Eva had children, and two children that big, Jacob felt extreme sympathy for Mr. Blackwood. So now, he was also wearing a mournful expression.
“Mr. Blackwood, with someone else’s children being this big, it means they have a father. So you definitely have no chance left. And if you keep going like this, you might become a third party in someone else’s marriage. Do you want to let your reputation develop like this in the future p>
Hearing this, Adrian glanced at him, his gaze as if he were looking at a fool.
Jacob didn’t understand. Did he say something wrong?
“Do you remember what you said before p>
“What did I say? Mr. Blackwood, can you please make it clear in one go?” Jacob was getting a bit impatient from Adrian’s comments, not knowing what he meant, so his tone inevitably became anxious.
But after he finished speaking, he regretted it.
Even if he was in a hurry, he shouldn’t have spoken to him in that tone.
Just as he was about to apologize, he realized that Adrian wasn’t angry at all. He seemed to be in a good mood.
“No rush, take another look at the photos p>
Adrian handed the photo to Jacob once again.
Jacob furrowed his brow, feeling skeptical. After considering it for a moment, he earnestly examined the photo, scouring it thoroughly, yet he couldn’t find anything different.
In the end, he had to inquire, “Mr. Blackwood, I’ve looked at this photo countless times. Is there something I’m missing? It’s just Ms. Hansen’s two children, isn’t it p>
Adrian cast a suspicious glance at Jacob, unsure why this person’s brain seemed to have stopped working at this critical moment.
In the past, he always had his own ideas about everything, but now that there was something going on, he couldn’t come up with anything.
Thinking of this, Adrian impatiently reminded him, “Look closely at the children’s features p>
Their features?
Jacob followed his words and looked again, saying, “To be honest, these two children have beautiful features. They look quite similar, yet they possess different temperaments. The girl has the charm of a girl, while the boy has his own uniqueness, but p>
As Jacob pondered, rubbing his chin, he rambled on without getting to the point, leaving Adrian speechless.
“But what p>
“It’s just that these two children don’t resemble Ms. Hansen at all. Instead, they somewhat resemble p>
When he reached this point, Jacob’s voice abruptly trailed off.
After a few seconds, he gazed at Adrian’s features, then back at the two children, seemingly confirming something. After several consecutive glances, Jacob struggled to swallow his saliva.
“Mr. Blackwood p>
“Hmm.” Adrian silently watched him, his voice steady. “Finish your sentence. What do they resemble, in fact p>
Jacob had countless expletives running through his mind, finding it hard to believe, but the more he looked, the more they resembled each other.
Especially the little boy in the photo, he was practically a spitting image of Adrian.
Jacob had mentioned it before, but back then, he hadn’t given it much thought. After all, who could have imagined that Mr. Blackwood had children?
But now these two children belonged to Ms. Hansen, and they had grown so much.
“Speak,” Adrian urged, his brow furrowing.
After a few silent seconds, Jacob firmly declared, “They look like you, Mr. Blackwood. I’ve said before that these two children resemble you, but I didn’t think much of it at the time. However, now… Mr. Blackwood, if these two children are somehow connected to me, then doesn’t that mean Ms. Hansen p>
Adrian was also contemplating this question.
“Mr. Blackwood, you truly… didn’t know p>
At this moment, Jacob’s gaze towards Adrian had changed, suggesting a hint of awkwardness.
Adrian pursed his lips. He also wanted to know why he didn’t know about this matter.
“Pack up, we’re going to Chicago,” Adrian said.
Jacob nodded, “I’m all packed. When are we leaving p>
“Now,” Adrian replied with a serious expression.
Before boarding the plane, Adrian turned to Jacob and said, “Find someone to investigate where these two children are now, and get detailed information p>
“Alright, Mr. Blackwood, I’ll make a call and have someone look into it right away p>
After boarding the plane, Adrian stared out the window, but his eyes didn’t seem to see anything.
He never expected that Dylan and Ruby could possibly be his children. No wonder he always felt a special connection with them.
So, that’s how it is!
At this moment, any pain or discomfort seemed to vanish for Adrian.
Jacob sat down next to him with a notebook in hand and whispered, “Mr. Blackwood, I’ve asked someone to investigate. We should have the results by tonight or tomorrow.” “Hmm.” Jacob glanced at Adrian, then looked away, still shocked by everything.
He never imagined things could take such a dramatic turn.
Those two children could potentially be Mr. Blackwood’s bloodline p>
He always ignored others, so how could Mr. Blackwood inexplicably enjoy watching the livestreams of those two children and even spend so much money to reward them? It turns out, some things are guided by fate.
Destiny unconsciously brings people together if they are meant to be.
Although the results haven’t been found yet, judging from their striking resemblance, it seems likely. Just waiting for the results now.
After finishing work, Eva left the company and went to Lisa’s place to pick up the two children.
She went to the same place as last time, where Lisa was still living.
At first, there was nothing unusual. However, as soon as Eva stepped into the living room, Lisa was reminded of how she had previously driven her away, and her heart felt heavy. So, when Eva came over, Lisa apologized first.
“Sorry about last time p>
Upon hearing this, Eva was momentarily stunned, then she dismissed it and said, “What’s the big deal p>
“Really, I don’t know if I was being stupid, but I actually made you leave because of that incident. I rented this house because of your return, but I never expected that I would… I’m sorry p>
As Lisa spoke, her eyes turned red, and she walked forward to embrace Eva. “I’m truly sorry p>
The two children were in the room and didn’t see this scene. Eva hugged Lisa, patting her shoulder gently. “It’s alright. If I held grudges, do you think I would have brought the two kids to find you? Coming to you means I don’t mind.” “I feel guilty because you reached out to me with so much care, and I easily destroyed it p>
“How could that be?” Eva smiled gently, “Even if you don’t want this friendship, I still do. It’s okay p>
Lisa sobbed on Eva’s shoulder for a while before finally leaving with red eyes.
She couldn’t help but think about her conversation with Adrian earlier today.
After making the phone call, he felt even more guilty and wanted to explain to Eva, but the words got stuck in his throat.
Forget it, she probably doesn’t mind, judging by her appearance.
