Chapter 60
Despite lowering his eyes and clenching his hands, Omar couldn’t conceal his sadness.
Grace curled her lips coldly with a hint of sarcasm. “Your good
show almost convinces me that a Kaufman family’s child would be laughed at.”
Omar looked at her in disbelief, unable to hold back the resentment any longer.
“Why don’t you want me? Am I no better than the four–year–old kid?”
“Yes, that’s right. My son loves me. You really can’t compare to him.” Grace’s response caused Omar’s expression to abruptly change. She had never said anything so hurtful to him before. Omar found it absurd, saying, “You aren’t my mom! Where did you hide her?”
With folded arms, Grace glanced at Antonio coldly. “Aren’t you leaving?”
Antonio grabbed the emotionally agitated Omar.
He had never imagined Grace would be willing to give up Omar, but her expression gave him the impression that she really didn’t want him and Omar anymore.
Antonio pinched his brows and said in a hoarse voice, “Omar, we should leave.”

Omar’s eyes were red, but Grace didn’t look distressed. After they left, Grace stopped pretending.
Omar was her child, and of course, she cared about him.
However, Omar had made his choice, so he should bear the consequences himself.
Now, all she wanted to do was heal Grace Hewson and get out of here with Colin, or else her jealous man would lose it.
With his head down, Omar silently followed Antonio. Just as they passed by a ward with no patients staying, Kendra’s voice came from inside, “Mom, be patient.
“I’ll marry into the Kaufman family and become Mrs. Kaufman soon. I killed that old man a long time ago.
“I shifted the blame to that fool Grace for the large dose of potassium | purposefully injected into him. He was the one to blame for his misfortune. He was determined to send me away and stop me from getting married to Antonio.
“But I didn’t expect that idiot Grace would come back. I’ll kidnap her son and force her to leave.” These words made Antonio’s eyes turn cold. Omar widened his eyes; he was about to speak, but Antonio covered his mouth.
Kendra’s contemptuous voice sounded again, “Mom, Antonio simply didn’t want to marry me no matter what I said in the past few years. But it doesn’t matter. I’m sure he will after I give birth to his son.
“Then I’ll find a way to kill that ungrateful Omar. Only my son can inherit the Kaufman family’s assets in the future.”

Omar struggled even harder. At last, Antonio felt compelled to push open the ward door. Kendra’s smile froze, and her heart sank suddenly.
With a shocked look and red eyes, Omar yelled at Kendra,
“You’ve been lying to me for all these years! You killed my great- grandfather!”
Antonio looked solemnly at Kendra while holding back Omar, who was about to charge forward.
Kendra shuddered in fear. “Antonio, Omar, I can explain…”
Antonio interrupted her coldly, “Save it for the police!”
He took Omar away, feeling so panicked for the first time.
He felt regret for the first time. He wondered how many times he had misunderstood and hurt Grace because of such a vicious woman like Kendra.
Omar’s eyes were full of regret and shame.
“Dad, I was wrong. We were both mistaken. Mom used to be so kind to me. I regret it so much. Will Mom forgive me?”
Antonio’s heart was in turmoil as he returned to Grace’s office with Omar, only to find it empty. This scene reminded them of six years ago when Grace left.
The house was very tidy but also very cold. They couldn’t even find any trace of Grace’s presence in the house. Grace had vanished entirely from their lives.
Omar was acting up at the time. “She doesn’t want me. I don’t want her either!”

Antonio also thought that Grace was just throwing a tantrum and would return by herself after a while. In the past, she would return the following day after every tantrum.
But neither of them expected that Grace would be gone for six years. They couldn’t locate her anywhere in the past six years.
“Dad?”
Omar’s voice brought back Antonio’s sanity.
Just before Antonio picked up his phone to call Grace, he realized she had blocked him. After a moment, he called someone else.
“I need you to investigate a person in Drelar City.”
In a short while, Antonio received a message.
He left quickly with Omar, his face becoming extremely gloomy. Omar realized something was off and asked hurriedly in the car, “Dad, what happened?”
Antonio’s voice was particularly cold. “Someone has kidnapped Colin.”
Omar was stunned, feeling confused.
“Are you talking about the one who always follows Mom around?”
Omar thought of the little boy, who was actually his younger. brother. “Dad, is he going to be okay?”
Antonio remained silent.

He didn’t know either, but he hoped that something would happen to the child so that Grace could be with him in peace. This way, he could make up for what he owed Grace over the
years.
Without getting an answer, Omar couldn’t calm down.
He reasoned that he would accept the new brother grudgingly as long as her mother was willing to stay.
The car quickly arrived at Grace’s place. When Antonio and Omar walked into the villa, they saw Grace tightly hugging Colin who was crying.
Grace’s eyes were bloodshot, yet she was still trying to comfort Colin with all her might, “Don’t be afraid, Colin. Mom is here. The bad guys are gone.” This familiar scene made Omar clench his hands.
