CHAPTER 689: CHAPTER 689: SERENA’S USB DRIVE

The suddenly mentioned Serena, "..."

Pip actually asked her to feed Hayden Crawford cookies!

Stella cheered happily, "Yes, yes, Mommy, this cookie is so good, you feed it to Daddy~"

Looking at the children’s innocent smiles, Serena awkwardly stood in place. She couldn’t bear to refuse the children, so she lifted her eyes to glance at Hayden Crawford, giving him a look.

Hayden naturally received her eye signal but pretended not to notice. Instead, he glanced down at the cookie and nodded, "This one looks delicious."

"Right, Daddy~" Stella laughed.

Serena, "..."

At this moment, Pip tilted his head in confusion, "Huh, Mommy, why haven’t you fed Daddy the cookie yet?"

Sandwiched between the two, Serena, "..."

Serena could only extend her hand, take the cookie, and feed it to Hayden Crawford’s sexy thin lips.

Hayden opened his mouth and took the cookie.

His slightly cool and pliant lips brushed against her soft white fingertips, startling Serena. She quickly withdrew her hand, her white earlobes blushing rapidly enough to be visibly seen.

Hayden watched her shy demeanor, like a tender red rose. How odd, he didn’t usually like sweets. The only sweet he enjoyed was... her, but now he surprisingly found this cookie exceptionally tasty.

Just then, a maid came out respectfully, "Sir, breakfast is ready, you can eat breakfast now."

Serena felt a bit awkward staying here. She took off the floral apron she was wearing and looked at Hayden Crawford, "I have something to do, so I’ll leave first..."

She was about to leave.

Hayden quickly pursed his lips, displeased, "Where are you going? Don’t you even have time to stay and have breakfast with the kids?"

That wasn’t her intention.

Wasn’t he going to fight her for custody? She thought he wasn’t welcoming her here.

Hayden truly regretted it now. It seemed like his tone was too harsh last night, making her hesitant now. She dared not take a step forward, and he, concerned about his pride, didn’t want to be proactive, not wanting to indulge her too much, so the situation became somewhat deadlocked.

"Don’t you want to see Caden Crawford? Last night Caden called me, he was very upset and asked why you haven’t come to see him in these three years." Hayden brought up little Caden Crawford.

What?

Serena’s bright eyes suddenly constricted, and her heart ached deeply. Her Caden, the one she least wanted to hurt, but she knew that the exposure of secrets would surely hurt Caden first.

"Where is Caden now? I need to see Caden right now." Serena said anxiously.

Seeing that she wasn’t going to leave, Hayden’s stern and displeased demeanor softened a bit, "Let’s have breakfast first, and after that, we’ll go see Caden Crawford together. It’s better this way."

Serena could only nod, "Okay."

...

The family of four had breakfast together. Serena did not have much of an appetite; she was so worried about Caden, she wished she could fly to his side right now.

Seeing her anxious and worried look, Hayden’s hardened heart slowly softened. The once young girl had become his children’s mother, and in the future, they would face various issues concerning the children together, growing old hand in hand.

"I’m going up to get a document, wait for me here." Hayden instructed.

Serena nodded, "Then be quick."

Hayden went upstairs to the study.

Serena obediently stood in place waiting. Then, with a "ding," her phone rang; a text message came in.

It was... Melody Ashworth who sent it.

Melody Ashworth actually sent a text at this time, and Serena suddenly had a very bad premonition. She immediately opened the message.

The message was simple: Caden Crawford is with me, come alone!

There was also a photo attached below, a picture of little Caden Crawford, tied up by Melody Ashworth. His cool little face even bore some injuries.

Serena instantly gasped, Caden was in Melody Ashworth’s hands.

Melody Ashworth wanted her to go alone.

Serena lifted her bright eyes and looked at the study upstairs, then turned around and ran straight out. She left.

She was going alone to save Caden!

When Hayden came out from the study, he didn’t see Serena. The hall was empty, and he couldn’t find her.

"Someone!" Hayden called out in a deep voice.

The maid quickly ran out, "Sir, do you have any orders?"

Hayden’s face didn’t look good now. His handsome face looked so angry it could drip water, "Where is Miss Sterling? Where did she go?"

The maid sensed the cold and stern aura emanating from him, too scared to make a sound, "Sir, Miss Sterling... she just left."

She left.

She left alone.

He had originally planned to take her to look for his son, but once again she left him, left their son, and walked away alone.

Hayden felt a surge of anger rising rapidly in his chest. He raised his foot and kicked over a chair.

With a crash, the chair was kicked open.

Hayden stood with one hand on his waist, his striking eyes filled with deep breaths, "Serena Sterling!" He really wanted to strangle this woman!

Just then, with a "ding dong," the villa’s doorbell rang; someone was knocking at the door outside.

Who?

The maid, trembling with fear, ran to open the door. Outside stood a person.

Hayden quickly calmed his mood and was about to have someone bring Serena back. Meanwhile, a gentle and jade-like figure walked in from outside the door.

Hayden froze; this person was... Seth Sullivan.

Seth Sullivan came!

Hayden had been searching for Seth Sullivan these years, but Seth Sullivan was incredibly mysterious, his movements a mystery. Tales of him were legendary, yet without a trace of him. Hayden didn’t expect Seth Sullivan to come to him willingly, just like this.

Today, Seth Sullivan wore white, his handsome features like a noble gentleman. Three years without meeting, his aura became even more pure, resembling a celestial being. The maid by the door was already stunned.

Hayden quickly drew a sinister and bloodthirsty arc with his thin lips, "Seth Sullivan, you finally showed up!"

Seth’s clear black eyes looked at Hayden, revealing a faint smile, "Mr. Crawford, long time no see, hope you’ve been well."

Hayden snorted coldly, looking down at Seth with a sovereign aura, "Seth, you didn’t come to chat with me today, did you?"

"Of course not. I came to give something to Mr. Crawford today." Seth’s hand held a USB drive.

"What is this?"

"These are some videos Serena took in Alani, documenting every moment from pregnancy to childbirth. Before she fell into slumber, she mentioned that this USB drive was for you; she didn’t want you to miss any moment with the children."
