Mommy Alert! The CEO Daddy Won't Stop Courting-Chapter 110 Maxwell Parker: The day has finally come...
After speaking, her face, full of joyful smiles, turned to Adrian and continued, "If there’s nothing else, I’ll be heading back first."
Adrian nodded, "Hmm, go on back."
...
Ava Parker felt as though she was in a dream as she made her way home.
As soon as she walked in, she loudly called, "Dad, Dad!"
Hearing her voice, Maxwell Parker and Phoebe walked out.
"What’s going on, coming in and immediately looking for your dad?" Phoebe asked warmly as she walked into the living room, glancing at Ava Parker who just entered from outside.
Ava Parker’s face bloomed with an uncontrollable smile, "Dad, get ready, Adrian is coming over to our house tonight to visit and propose, to discuss our marriage."
Phoebe was shocked when she heard this, and excitedly rushed to Ava Parker’s side, grabbing her hand, "Ella, is what you said true?"
Ava Parker nodded, "Mom, it’s true, Adrian told me himself."
Compared to the joy of the mother and daughter, Maxwell Parker could not feel any happiness.
His face darkened as he looked at Ava Parker, speaking deeply, "Ava, someone like Adrian Davies is not someone you can afford to provoke."
Ava Parker immediately became displeased, "Dad, how can you say that to me?"
She immediately tugged on Phoebe’s hand, pouting, "Mom, look at Dad!"
Phoebe looked disapprovingly at Maxwell Parker, "Elder Parker, look at you, with such a happy event, what are you even saying."
Maxwell Parker ignored Phoebe and looked at Ava Parker with worry, continuing, "Ava, the things you’ve done before, you should honestly tell Adrian Davies. Otherwise, I’m truly worried that you won’t even know how you ended up losing."
Ava Parker stomped her foot in anger, "Dad, what are you even talking about! Adrian has already agreed to marry me! I seriously doubt if you’re even my real dad to still say such discouraging things at this time!"
Phoebe chimed in supportively, "Exactly, Elder Parker, with such a good thing, how can you say such discouraging words."
After speaking, her eyes sparkled with calculation, looking at Maxwell Parker, she continued, "Elder Parker, since Adrian Davies wants to marry Ava, with all his wealth, he should at least offer a substantial dowry."
Before Maxwell Parker could respond, Phoebe spoke again excitedly, "Yes, at least he should offer ten million, after all, he gets an instant son for free!"
Ava Parker immediately shook her head in disagreement, "Mom, when Adrian comes, please don’t mention money."
After speaking, Ava Parker linked arms with Phoebe, pulling her to sit on the sofa in the living room, smiling as she spoke, "Mom, once I marry Adrian, will we even have to worry about money."
Phoebe heard this, and excitedly patted Ava Parker’s hand, "Yes, yes, yes, once you marry Adrian, you’ll be the Davies Clan’s director’s wife, and I’ll be the director’s mother-in-law, we won’t have to worry about money at all then."
Looking at the mother and daughter sitting on the sofa, watching their excited interaction, Maxwell Parker shook his head and helplessly headed upstairs towards the study.
For some reason, he had an ominous premonition that Adrian Davies’s sudden visit wasn’t a blessing, but a coming storm...
After all these years, Melody had finally grown up, she no longer needed anyone’s protection, he should have told her everything by now.
As for Adrian Davies’s appearance, asking specifically to see him. Then he should meet this man.
In the evening, Adrian Davies arrived at the Parker household with Locke.
His face was dark as he walked with powerful strides into the Parker villa.
Regarding Adrian Davies’s arrival, Phoebe and Ava Parker naturally welcomed him enthusiastically.
But Adrian Davies, with a cold face, strode directly to the floor-to-ceiling window in the living room.
He ignored Phoebe’s fawning demeanor and Ava Parker’s eagerness, coldly looking at Maxwell Parker, "Mr. Parker, let’s talk in your study."
Seeing Adrian Davies like this, Maxwell Parker’s bad premonition grew stronger.
He didn’t say anything unnecessary, just nodded gently, "Alright."
After speaking, Maxwell Parker led the way, and together with Adrian Davies, went to the study on the second floor.
At the study door, Maxwell Parker pushed open the door, "Director Davies, please."
Adrian Davies strode in.
Maxwell Parker followed him inside.
Locke didn’t follow them in but directly closed the study door, standing straight outside.
Once inside the study, without waiting for Adrian Davies to speak, Maxwell Parker straightforwardly said, "Director Davies, whatever you wish to ask, just ask directly."
Adrian Davies looked at Maxwell Parker.
This elderly man, with mostly gray hair, seemed not to be in the best of health.
However, recalling what he had seen regarding the suffering Melody Parker had endured in her childhood, Adrian Davies felt no sympathy at all for this old man in front of him.
His dark eyes stared at Maxwell Parker, coldly asking, "Mr. Parker, where is your other daughter? Why hasn’t she come home?"
Maxwell Parker couldn’t help but tremble all over.
It seemed he had guessed correctly, what needed to come had come.
Maxwell Parker’s murky and aged eyes scrutinized the man standing in front of him.
This man had taken over River City four years ago, swiftly supplanting the longstanding king—the Morris family—becoming the new ruler of River City’s economic fate.
Rumors said he was decisive and ruthless.
Could such a man protect Melody?
If Melody got involved with him, would it be...?
Seeing Maxwell Parker not speaking, Adrian Davies coldly called, "Mr. Parker."
Maxwell Parker came back to his senses and immediately answered the previous question posed by Adrian Davies, "Melody lives on her own outside."
Then he sighed deeply, his voice full of helplessness, "Ah... Kids grow up, we have to let them be."
Adrian Davies hadn’t come here to chat with Maxwell Parker, much less to mention the marriage he had discussed with Ava before.
His eyes, cold as ice, fixed on Maxwell Parker, directly addressing the matter, "Mr. Parker, the reason I’m here today is just to ask you a few questions, and I hope you can answer truthfully."
Just as expected?
He wasn’t here to discuss the marriage that Ava imagined.
Maxwell Parker had anticipated this outcome long ago and showed no excessive expression, only politely saying to Adrian Davies, "Director Davies, please go ahead."
Adrian Davies didn’t hold back, "Mr. Parker, I’m asking you, back then, was the child your daughter gave birth to one or two? And, which daughter of yours is it? Ava Parker? Or Melody Parker?"
Hear the pointed questions one after another, Maxwell Parker’s entire body began to tremble uncontrollably.
Although he had anticipated this would be the outcome eventually. 𝚏𝐫𝚎𝗲𝕨𝐞𝐛𝕟𝚘𝐯𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝗺
Yet he hadn’t expected that this man before him seemed to have already seen through everything.
