Mommy Alert! The CEO Daddy Won't Stop Courting
Chapter 23: Late Night, a Sudden Assassination…

Chapter 23: Chapter 23: Late Night, a Sudden Assassination...

Let him leave River City, go to Canada to develop!

"Excessive, it’s simply too excessive!" Malcom Moore said angrily, when suddenly a thought flashed in his mind, "Could it be... could Adrian have fallen for that model?"

After speaking, Malcom Moore decisively denied his own words, "No, no, it’s impossible! Adrian hates and detests women so much, how could he like a model who’s all about the perfume? It must be he’s overthinking it! But, Adrian’s abnormal behavior..."

Malcom Moore couldn’t figure out what the matter was after thinking about it the whole night.

Though he couldn’t understand Adrian Davies’ attitude.

But he did realize one thing, that this model was different to Adrian. She’s the only woman who could make Adrian act unusually, even care.

Interesting, very interesting!

...

The apartment that Melody Parker previously purchased was located on the 10th floor of building number 12 in Imperial Vista Garden.

For various considerations, Melody Parker politely refused Malcom Moore after his car entered Imperial Vista Garden.

She didn’t let Malcom Moore continue to send her but chose to get out and walked back to the apartment with Loren Fisher.

Melody Parker and Loren Fisher walked to building number 12 and pressed the elevator.

Melody Parker then looked at Loren Fisher and said: "Loren, it’s late, you should head back, be careful on the road."

Loren refused: "Boss, I’m fine. I’ll escort you upstairs and then leave."

Seeing Loren’s insistence, Melody Parker didn’t say anything further.

Ding~ The elevator door opened, and the two walked into the elevator.

The elevator slowly ascended and finally stopped at the 10th floor.

Ding~ The elevator door opened, Melody Parker looked at Loren Fisher, who was obviously a year younger but always wore standard professional attire with her long hair meticulously styled, heavy glasses perched on her nose, "Loren, I’m here, now you can rest assured."

"Mm," Loren nodded, looking at Melody Parker as she instructed: "Boss, remember to make yourself some hangover soup when you get back, to avoid a headache tomorrow."

"Alright, I know. You better get going too." Melody Parker pressed the button for the first floor and stepped out of the elevator, instructing Loren Fisher: "Make sure to stay safe on the road."

After the elevator doors closed and carried Loren Fisher down, Melody Parker turned around and headed to the apartment.

Melody Parker opened the apartment door.

The warm, non-dazzling small lights in the apartment instantly lit up.

And all of this came from Benjamin Parker’s thoughtful design.

Melody Parker bent over, changed into comfortable slippers, and walked towards Benjamin Parker’s room.

She opened the door and saw the tiny figure already asleep under the covers; Melody Parker smiled dotingly.

Melody Parker gently walked over and planted a kiss on Benjamin Parker’s forehead, "Baby, Mommy has found a school for you, soon you’ll be going."

"This child, never closing the window." Melody Parker softly murmured, walking over to the window.

Standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows, gazing at River City’s starry night sky, Melody Parker couldn’t help but marvel, "River City, I’m back, after five years of absence, I’m finally back!"

She promised that she would return!

And now she’s fulfilled that promise!

She’s back! Back to this place that once abandoned her!

She plans to stay for a while here; if things go well, she might just decide to remain.

After all, River City is her home, the place that birthed and nurtured her.

Though she has many unpleasant memories here, relatives more indifferent and merciless than strangers, she also has friends here, reasons she must return.

As for Benjamin, she will not let Maxwell Parker and the others see him.

Because they simply don’t deserve it!

At midnight, most people in the city were deep in slumber.

Melody Parker and Benjamin Parker naturally were no exception.

At this moment, a shadow silently made its way to Imperial Vista Garden with a clear target, climbing swiftly to the floor-to-ceiling window on the tenth floor.

Clearly, the person had exceptional skills, climbing up the drain pipe like a leopard.

A gleaming dagger, under the moonlight, radiated a chilling light.

The dagger slid into the window, unlocking the locked window within moments.

Putting away the dagger, with a flip, the shadow jumped lightly into Melody Parker’s room.

This task was all too easy for him.

Seeing the quilt on the bed, the person did not hesitate, immediately pulling out a silencer gun from his waist, and shot towards the quilt.

Unexpectedly, aside from a few bullet holes, there was no reaction from the person under the quilt.

Tricked! How could it be so easy? Thoughts shifted instantly, and the shadow prepared to leave to reconsider his strategy.

But just as he was about to move, another tall shadow suddenly sprung out from nowhere, blocking his escape, thwarting his plan.

"..." The man in the darkness remained silent, but radiated a menacing, bloodthirsty aura, moving beside him like a demon in an instant.

The shadow immediately attacked.

Facing the tall opponent’s vicious and decisive moves, the man countered cautiously.

The two began to battle.

But the fight ended soon after it began.

The shadow that came afterward had already kicked the man’s gun away, chopped towards his neck with the backhand, knocking him out with just that one move.

The man’s dark eyes glimmered with a bloodthirsty light as he picked up the previous shadow straight from the ground and tossed him out from the balcony.

Then, the tall shadow quickly scanned the room.

He swiftly tidied up Melody Parker’s bedroom, dealing with the quilt that had been perforated, restoring everything to normal, leaving no traces.

After doing all this, he promptly jumped out of the tenth-floor window, picking up the man he’d thrown down earlier and quickly left.

Before leaving, he locked the window back to its original state.

In Benjamin Parker’s room, both mother and son were deeply asleep; the events in the adjacent room didn’t disturb them at all.

Melody Parker was blissfully unaware of the assassination attempt, escaping unharmed.

Besides the ambush awaiting the entering shadow, it was because Melody Parker drank alcohol, and after seeing Benjamin Parker asleep, didn’t bother returning to her room and just slept beside Benjamin.

It was precisely because of her momentary laziness, sleeping beside Benjamin, that she avoided the shadow’s gunfire; otherwise...

When Melody Parker woke up the next morning, little Benjamin was no longer beside her.

Melody Parker rubbed her headache from the hangover as she got out of bed, slipped into her slippers, and headed outside.

"Mommy, did you drink last night? Didn’t you listen to Auntie Loren’s advice and drink the hangover soup?" Melody Parker stepped out of the room and was immediately met with Benjamin Parker’s inquiry, as if he’d witnessed everything last night.
