" I guess this pretty lady has mistaken me for that little boy . " So ... is she my mommy " But Daddy said Mommy was dead . " Yakira reached out and ruffled Daron's hair . " What's up ? Are you shaken ? " Daron couldn't help but step forward and hug Yakira He felt so warm : for the first time , he knew how it felt to be held by his mommy . Yakira , however , was stunned . She was even more convinced that " Abel " was shaken " There , there . It's fine now . Abel . Let's go find Minnie , " she said . The man on the phone told her Minnie was in his office . She figured " Abel " must have been shaken because he couldn't find Minnie . She picked " Abel " up and entered the elevator . Throughout this whole time . Daron kept hugging her tightly . He thought . " It feels so nice being held by Mommy . " I wanna be in her arms forever . " 05 441 Chapter 3 Your Mommy Is Dead With Daron in her arms , she went to the front desk of the law firm and stated her purpose . Then Herschel's secretary led her to his office . " Mr. Lozano , the girl's mother is here . " Mr. Lozano ? Yakira at the door saw Herschel , and her heart started pounding uncontrollably . She had met Herschel once ; he was the one who drafted her and Brayden's prenuptial agreement . He was close friends with Brayden and the Blanchard Group's legal counsel . She had no idea if he remembered her or not . Taking a deep breath , she tried her best to calm down . " Abel . keep your mask on . " Before entering the office , she pulled Daron's mask up , making sure it wouldn't come off . Since she had only met Herschel once , she thought maybe he had already forgotten about her . But Abel was a completely different case ; he was practically the younger version of Brayden . She didn't plan to see Brayden ever again , and of course , she wouldn't let him know the existence of the two kids . " Mommy ! " At the sight of Yakira , Minnie jumped off the couch , ran over , and threw herself into Yakira's arms . " Mommy ... " She burst into tears again , overwhelmed by grievances and sadness . " There , there . Don't cry anymore , OK , Minnie ? I'm here , " Yakira comforted her softly . Crying , Minnie mumbled , " Mommy , Abel ... Abel has been ... taken away . " " What ? He's right here . No one took him away , " Yakira smiled . " See who this is ? " 05 441 Chapter 3 Your Moinny Is Dead 298 vouchers Minnie stopped crying and looked at Daron aside through tears . " Abel " Minnie was puzzled . She thought . " Wasn't Abel wearing a suit? Ile said since we were gonna meet a lawyer, we should dress properly . " Why is he wearing a black shirt and shorts now ? " He changed his clothes so quickly ? " Meanwhile , Herschel looked at Yakira , frowning slightly . He thought . " She looks so familiar . Have I seen her before ? " But I can't think of anyone for now . " And that boy standing next to her seems so familiar as well . " His figure reminds me of Daron , Brayden's son . " Brayden has just taken Daron away . Or I would have mistaken this little boy for Daron . " Sensing his probing gaze , Yakira straightened up and stood in front of Daron . " Mr. Lozano , thank you very much . " Herschel's gaze fell upon her again as he smiled , " Ma'am , do I know you from somewhere ? " He wondered if she was one of his former clients . Yakira's heart skipped a beat as she smiled , " You must have taken me for someone else . We just arrived in Retston . " " You aren't from the local ? " he asked . " No. " Yakira smiled . Hearing this , Herschel didn't press further , figuring she resembled someone he knew Yakira said , " I'm taking them away . Thank you . " No worries . " 0544 E Chapter 3 Your Mommy Is Dead She left hastily while holding both kids ' hands . Though Herschel failed to recognize her temporarily , it didn't mean he wouldn't realize something later . As he watched the three figures retreat , his suspicion grew - the figure of the boy next to Yakira was a lot like that of Daron . He frowned even more tightly . The resemblance was alarmingly striking . Brayden put Abel into the passenger seat . Then suddenly , through the rearview mirror , he caught a glimpse of an utterly familiar figure . He looked back at once but saw no one . He thought . " What's gotten into me ? " Why would I think of Yakira ? " She's dead . How could I possibly see her ? " " Let me out ! " . At the same time , Abel pushed the car door with all his might but to no avail . Brayden shook his head to come back to his senses and explained with great patience . " Daron , cut it out . I told you already , didn't I ? I won't marry Patricia . What you saw online is just rumors . " He had always known Daron disliked Patricia . In fact , Daron had thrown quite a few tantrums because he was upset with her . " Bad Daddy ! I don't believe in a word you say ! Let me out ! I wanna go find Mommy ! " Abel shouted angrily . He had seen the online rumors about Brayden and Patricia before . Before that , he had wanted to help Brayden patch things up with Yakira Chapter 3 Your Mommy Is Dead But now , all he wanted was just child support . Neither he nor Minnie wanted a Daddy who had fallen for another woman . Brayden frowned . " What did I tell you ? Your mommy is dead . " Your mommy is dead ! " Abel was even more pissed off . He thought , " Bad Daddy ! He abandoned Mommy and is even now cursing her ? " " Bad Daddy , you're the biggest jerk in the world ! Let me out ! I don't want you to be my daddy ! " Brayden's expression darkened . " Daron Blanchard . " he said sternly , his voice warning . The car fell silent at once .. Abel glared at Brayden with tears of grievance in his eyes . He thought , " Bad Daddy yelled at me ? " Mommy never yells at me ! " " I'm afraid Mr. Daron's condition is acting up again , " Deon Weaver , Brayden's assistant . whispered aside . Brayden looked at Abel with distress in his eyes , his expression softening . He pinched the bridge of his nose and said wearily , " Call Ralph and tell him to go to the Blanchard's villa . ' " OK . " Then Brayden took Abel back to Daron's room in the Blanchard's villa . Abel locked himself up in the room out of spite . Ralph Morton , the family doctor , showed up soon , but Abel still refused to open the door . Ralph sighed , " Bray , Daron's condition has worsened . His alternate personality has been showing up way too often lately . It might mess with his brain easily. " Brayden frowned . " Is there nothing we can do ?

You mean Yakira ? She's dead . Am I supposed to dig her up ? " . Whenever Yakira's name was brought up . Brayden always felt inexplicably angry , and something else he couldn't quite deline . Back then , Yakira had left without any signs , leaving him with only divorce papers After he had turned the entire Retston upside down , all he learned was her death . All of a sudden , he found it hard to breathe . " Mr. Blanchard , Ms. McDowell is here , " Deon came in and reported . Putting away his thoughts , Brayden said coldly . " Tell Patricia - if she pulls such stunts again , I'll make sure she pays . " He knew exactly who was behind those online rumors . " And make it clear to her again that Daron won't have a stepmother . " " Yes . Mr. Blanchard . "
