Mother and son united, their strength unbreakable.
Mr. Hart, who had dedicated several hours in the kitchen, ultimately ended up being chased out with a hungry belly.
Alia sat down at the dining table and stared in disbelief at the four dishes and one soup laid out before her.
Seeing her fixated on the al and not moving, Noah, unsure what she was thinking, crisply said, "Mom, go ahead and eat, there’s no poison! Little brother has already polished off two bowls of rice!"
Alia’s face fell.
It was fortunate that a certain soone had already left, otherwise, wouldn’t it have stabbed his heart to hear his son’s comnt?
Her disbelief was twofold—first, because all the dishes were her and her son’s favorites, she was surprised that he knew her son’s tastes.
Second, because the dishes looked quite decent, not like the work of a novice.
After all, it was the high and mighty Christopher Hart!
Him cooking was shocking enough!
And to think his first attempt at cooking actually turned out decent!
How could anyone believe it?
However, encouraged by her son, she picked up her chopsticks and tasted a beef steak that felt like chewing leather, and imdiately felt relieved...
It indeed seed like a beginner’s first attempt.
"Mom, is it very bad?" Noah gazed at her eagerly, then glanced at the floor, "Look... even Little Dunham is refusing it."
Pfft—
Alia burst out laughing, unable to help herself.
President Hart’s hours of painstaking work, and in the end, even the dog wouldn’t touch it...
Truly his own flesh and blood, his son’s biting wit was already masterful.
Speaking of the dog, Alia looked at the fluffy bundle scampering around the table, her thoughts swirling again.
It seed soone really had put his heart into it.
To please his son, he had indeed racked his brains.
And to please her as well...
Reflecting on the mishap in bed, she couldn’t help but blush, the unique scent of him still lingering in her nose, a wave of heat stirring inside her.
That bastard, truly desperate.

In the blink of an eye, the triplets’ birthday arrived.
Christopher Hart had long planned to throw a grand fifth birthday party for his daughter, and now that he learned he had twin sons, it was a double celebration, and naturally, the scale of the party was even grander.
However, although the birthday party was luxurious and grand, it was not open to a wide array of guests.
Invitations were limited to close friends and family, and upon entry, guests were kindly reminded— to protect the children’s privacy, no photography or filming was allowed, nor was any private dissemination.
Alia dressed up early.
It was her first ti celebrating her daughter’s birthday, so of course, she dressed beautifully to leave an unforgettable impression on her little girl.
The brothers also wore matching suits, their hair neatly combed, looking handso and polite, exuding an innate dignity and elegance despite their young age, extrely delightful to behold.
Seeing their mom co out of the room, the brothers’ eyes widened in surprise, their mouths agape.
"Wow... Mom has turned into Queen Elsa."
"Mom is so beautiful! Even more beautiful than Queen Elsa!"
The brothers generously showered her with complints, making Alia’s heart bloom with joy.
This ice-blue off-the-shoulder gown, styled after Queen Elsa, was specially tailored by a friend in the fashion industry just for her daughter’s birthday party.
Although the attire was a bit out of place, as long as her daughter was happy, it was all worth it.
"Babies, it’s your birthday too today, but Mom can’t just celebrate for you two, you aren’t upset, are you?"
Ethan replied, "Of course not! Being able to celebrate with our sister is the happiest thing!"
"Mom, let’s leave soon, I can’t wait to et my sister."
Noah, who had just turned five and returned to the country a few months ago, had learned quite a few idioms and was speaking more and more like a little adult.
"Alright, let’s go!"
The trio got ready and left the house excitedly.
Who would have thought that when she opened the door, she would be startled by the figure standing in front of her!
The tall and burly Kane stood at the doorway with just a backpack, his hand raised, about to knock.
Their eyes t, and Alia was so shocked she was speechless, her eyes wide as if she were petrified.
Kane was surprised too, but quickly recovered, and with a change of direction, he gently embraced her: "Hi, I’m back, just in ti."
"Kane!" Noah and Ethan exclaid joyfully.
The man touched the children’s heads and congratulated with a smile, "Kids, happy birthday!"
Only when Alia stepped out of his embrace did she recover from her shock, her voice altered by surprise, "Kane, why are you suddenly back... You didn’t even say a word!"
"I wanted to surprise you, also..."
He hesitated, then helplessly spread his hands and said, "I didn’t know if I could get away, so I didn’t tell you ahead of ti."
This simple sentence aptly expressed the "predicant" he had been in these past few days.
Alia naturally understood what he ant.
But now she was in a hurry to leave and didn’t have ti to ask more.
"We’re heading to Hope’s birthday party, we need to leave, and you..." Alia was a bit distressed.
He had co all this way to celebrate the boys’ birthday.
And now they were going out, leaving him alone.
It wasn’t right, either emotionally or logically.
Kane eyed her up and down, his eyes full of admiration: "You are the most beautiful and charming Queen Elsa I have ever seen, would the Queen require a knight to protect her?"
This—
Alia certainly wasn’t averse to Kane.
It’s just, if she took him to Imperial Garden Villa, she didn’t know what that scoundrel would do.
"Mom, let Kane co with us!" Noah, turning his eyes craftily, seed to have so sche in mind as he tugged on his mother’s arm.
Alia smiled awkwardly, "Uh... if you’re not afraid that person will make things difficult for you and feel embarrassed, then let’s go together."
"Heh, what do I have to fear from him? He should be thanking , right?"
After all, he had been helping look after the two children for years.
Alia gave a dry laugh and muttered, "You’re thinking too highly of him."
That guy was a big shot, but could be very petty about certain things.
Getting him to thank a rival was as likely as Mars colliding with Earth.
On the way to Imperial Garden, Alia’s phone rang.
It was Christopher Hart urging her to hurry.
She briefly responded and hung up without daring to ntion that Kane was with her.
She was still sowhat worried, afraid that the guy would cause a scene without considering the circumstances.
Upon reaching Imperial Garden Villa, they saw several cars parked outside from afar.
Maserati, Porsche 911, Rolls-Royce, Bentley...
It was like a luxury car show.
Her several-hundred-thousand dollar Audi looked like Cinderella who had stumbled into a grand household.
The party was set on the lawn in the garden behind Imperial Garden.
Although autumn was deepening, the weather was still warm and comfortable.
The golden sunset filled the sky, and twinkling neon lights adorned the venue. Guests chatted, and children chased each other, laughter and joy everywhere.
As Alia and her children stepped onto the lawn, Hope in a white Princess dress saw them, instantly turned around, and ran towards them.
"Mommy!"
The call of "Mommy" drew all eyes, both adults and children, all turning to look at the young woman in icy blue, exuding an aura of nobility.
Christopher Hart, who was chatting with Benny Palr and so friends, heard his daughter’s voice and turned around in response.
Instantly, his eyes were captivated by the stunning blue beneath the setting sun, and his entire body moved in slow motion as he turned.
Benny, seeing his reaction, imdiately pulled out his phone, aid it at him, and started recording.
