Melanie’s heart skipped a beat at Roderick’s words.
“W–What brings you here?” she asked.
“This is the first day of your spring auction. I’m coming to root for you,” Roderick said.
Melanie roared in her heart, ‘No, I don’t need you to root for me!”
“No need. Did you just say that Elias has already got in?”
“Well, my mom and elder sister came in early. It’s time for us to go in,” Roderick said meaningfully, staring at her.
Melanie was completely desperate.
Ethan was standing on the auction block. As long as the audience who went in were not blind, they could see him.
“Umm, no. You go in first. I have something else to do,” Melanie said.
What if the Lambert family saw Ethan? She didn’t know how to deal with it.
Melanie quickly left the auction hall and went back to the CEO’s office.
She pulled the surveillance footage of the auction and saw Jennifer and Emma sitting in the audience seats with Elias.
They stared at Ethan on the auction block with excitement.
Ethan was auctioning a limited edition of the Pokemon sculpture at that moment.
He stood on the auction block calmly and skillfully bid for more money.
He pounded his gavel one after another.
Melanie was both happy and worried.

She worried that the Lambert family would take Éthan away from her soon.

Unsurprisingly, the Fashion Art Auction’s lots were all auctioned off. The audience erupted into loud cheers of celebration as the auction ended.
The audience kept asking to take photos with Ethan one by one.
Ethan became popular in Beloris this time.
His delicate and lovely face and mature temperament immediately attracted everyone’s attention.
Before the auction was over, agencies and film companies kept calling to say they wanted to sign a contract with Ethan.
Looking at Ethan holding Elias tightly in the video, Melanie couldn’t help but suspect that Ethan had planned all this secretly.
When she arrived at the hall, she saw Ethan talking to Jennifer with a smiling face.
She was worried that he would say something about Edward, so she hurriedly shouted, “Ethan!”
When Ethan saw her, he threw himself into her arms.
“Mommy, I’m so tired. I want you to hold me.”
At this moment, everyone else in the venue left.
Seeing Melanie coming, Jennifer hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed her hand.
“Mela, why didn’t you tell us about Ethan?”
“Well…” Melanie felt a little embarrassed.
“Grandma, Mommy said she wanted to give you guys a surprise today!” Ethan replied with a smile.
“It’s a big surprise, Mela. You gave birth to twins for the Lambert family. Geoffrey is overjoyed. He’s waiting for you at home. We’re going to have a family reunion,” Jennifer said excitedly.
She thought, ‘What? Reunion?‘
“Jennifer, Ethan just arrived here and finished hosting the auction. He is a little.

tired. I’d better take him back to have some rest,” Melanie quickly refused.
“Well, that’s right. Let’s hurry home now. Roddy, why don’t you carry Ethan for Mela?”
“I’m not tired at all,” Melanie hurriedly said.

Melanie glanced at Elias and thought she made a mistake in the past. Ethan was supposed to be the one who deserved her love most.
“Mommy, I’d like to go to Daddy’s house for a reunion dinner, Mommy. I haven’t had a reunion dinner since I grew up!” Ethan suddenly said.
Melanie’s scalp tingled. She was burning with anger.
She really wanted to throw him away.
She thought, ‘A reunion dinner? The Lambert family is trying to bribe us!”
“Ethan, you need to have a rest first,” she said gently, keeping her anger at bay..
“Mommy, you forgot that I’d been sleeping for a couple of hours since I got back,” Ethan replied with a smile.
Elias, who had been smiling all the time, suddenly stepped forward, put his arms. around Melanie, and said pitifully, “Mommy, you haven’t visited me at Daddy’s home recently. I want to have dinner with you.”
Melanie sighed when she saw the eager and pitiful eyes of her two sons.
These two children were united to dig a hole for her.
