Fierce Daddy: His Million-Dollar Sweetheart
Chapter 37: Mrs. Ji
CHAPTER 37: CHAPTER 37: MRS. JI
"Your brother is in a bad mood right now, he doesn’t like people knocking on the door, Timmy should speak to him gently." As Leon Keane finished speaking, a furious roar came from inside.
"Get away from me! I don’t have a brother, nor will I play with anyone! Don’t bother me, just leave, all of you leave, I don’t want to be bothered, I’m very annoyed..."
Ian Keane roared out, then like a little beast, he made a whining noise from his mouth.
Timmy Monroe was clearly startled by the roar from inside, he clutched his little heart in shock, his clear eyes looked innocently at Leon Keane and said, "Brother is so fierce!"
"Don’t be afraid, Timmy." Leon Keane pulled Timmy into his arms, gently patting the little boy’s back, softly encouraging him in his ear, "Your brother is sick, he doesn’t want us to know, so you need to forgive him and have more patience to coax him out, okay?"
Listening to Leon’s words, Timmy felt very sympathetic towards Ian inside, and mimicking Leon, he whispered in his ear, "Timmy understands! Brother is so pitiful, Timmy will help Uncle Kane coax brother out."
When Leon heard the term "Uncle Kane," he frowned slightly, not feeling very happy, he really wanted to hear the little boy call him "Daddy."
Timmy got down from Leon Keane, looked at the tightly closed door, pondered for a moment, then said in a soft, sticky voice, "Brother, what’s bothering you? You can tell Timmy! Timmy will help you think of a way to solve it."
Leon was surprised to see the little one whose head only reached his waist, he really didn’t expect this child to be so sensible, coming up with such a way to communicate with Ian.
Leon felt a bit emotional, he had called Derrick Stern to bring the little boy back, and it turned out to be the right decision.
"What ability do you have to solve anything? Get out, do you hear me? Get out." Ian’s irritable voice seemed unable to accept anyone.
Leon frowned, a bit worried that the little boy couldn’t handle Ian’s temper.
Leon observed the expression on the little boy’s face, suddenly, the boy lifted his head, his handsome little face showing no anger, but he said to him,
"Uncle Kane, don’t stand here. This is a matter between children, it has nothing to do with you adults. You go ahead! Timmy will stay with brother."
Leon felt both amused and helpless, this little boy was simply too clever, his maturity even surpassed that of adults, Leon’s heart was filled with pride, this was his child!
"Alright." Leon turned and went downstairs, leaving Ian completely to Timmy Monroe.
Auntie Chamberlain saw Leon coming down, she widened her eyes in disbelief: "Young master, how can you trust a child you brought back from outside? He doesn’t know anything, he’ll only make little master angrier and provoke him even more."
Leon’s dark eyes turned cold, "This household is not for you to dictate."
Auntie Chamberlain’s face turned pale, tears welled up in her eyes as she said, "Young master, I know I’m just a servant of the Kane family, I shouldn’t have spoken to you like that earlier, but I’ve raised little master to this age. I’m worried about him! Little master’s illness, even authoritative doctors are powerless, let alone a child as young as little master? What can he understand..."
Leon frowned, impatiently interrupting Auntie Chamberlain, "I don’t need you to teach me how to handle things, you know you’re just a servant in the Kane family, so do what a servant should do."
Leon felt Auntie Chamberlain was overstepping, if it weren’t for her long service caring for Ian, he would have had her settle her pay and leave directly.
Auntie Chamberlain, seeing Leon turn away with cold indifference, sat on the luxurious sofa, lit a cigarette, the orange glow brightened, he took a deep drag, his thin lips exhaled smoke, his exceptionally handsome face looked calm, yet his actions in smoking seemed somewhat restless.
Auntie Chamberlain dared not speak up, afraid of really angering Leon Keane.

Ivana Monroe’s phone ran out of battery, so she took a cab directly to The Kanes, the receptionist had already been informed, when Ivana explained why she was there, they gave her Leon Keane’s cell number.
Ivana was a bit surprised, she had come prepared to make a scene, given how rude the receptionist had been on the phone.
The receptionist told Ivana it was President Kane who took Timmy back and would send him back later.
Ivana felt a slight relief knowing Timmy was with Leon Keane but was also very angry. Her son, what right did he have to take him away? And decide when to send him back?
Ivana used the receptionist’s phone to dial Leon Keane’s number, but there was no answer for a long time and he ultimately hung up on her.
Ivana was blazing with fury, absolutely livid.
Someone at the reception desk had previously offended Timmy and was thrown out. Special Assistant Stern specifically called the company to remind them.
Now, all the receptionists were very respectful of Ivana, not daring to offend her at all.
"Mrs. Kane, please don’t be angry, when there are special circumstances at the company, Special Assistant Stern will inform President Kane immediately. It’s normal for President Kane not to answer a call from the reception." One receptionist smiled ingratiatingly, flattering Ivana.
President Kane already admitted Timmy was his biological son, then as Timmy’s biological mother, wouldn’t she be the future Mrs. Kane?
Ivana’s beautiful face suddenly flushed a light red, furrowing her brows: "Don’t call me that, I’m not Mrs. Kane, I have nothing to do with your President Kane, I just want my son back."
The receptionist made an awkward blunder, in the past, women who came here tried every trick to cling to President Kane, using all sorts of means.
Yet Ivana wasn’t interested in their President Kane.
All the receptionists couldn’t help but hold Ivana in higher regard, because if she was playing hard to get, there was no need to do it in front of these lowest-level employees.
Ivana asked the receptionist for Leon Keane’s address since he didn’t pick up the phone.
She took a cab to Leon Keane’s old residence.
Getting off the cab, Ivana was met with a mansion seen only on TV, the antique metal gate could allow several luxury cars to pass through simultaneously.
The metal gate was tightly closed, Ivana saw two beast-shaped metal rings on the gate, she grabbed a ring and vigorously knocked on the door.
After a moment.
The metal gate automatically opened, startling her, she hurriedly released the ring.
Once the door opened to a width she could enter, Ivana couldn’t wait to walk in.
"You can’t come in yet, who are you? What are you here for?" The young maid responsible for opening the door saw Ivana walking very fast, as if to rob, and ran to stop her.
"I came to fetch my son, he was brought back by Leon Keane, please step aside."
"What? Am I hearing this wrong? President Kane would bring your son back? Aren’t you aware that President Kane has a son? If you’re trying to get close to President Kane, your trick is too low-level."
