Bradley didn’t waste any time and went straight to the point, “Mr. Sanderson, give my son back to me.”
Upon hearing that, Steffan smiled and calmly said, “Mr. Warner, it’s my son’s 10th birthday today. If you’ve come to
congratulate him as a guest, you’re welcome to do so.”
Bradley looked at Steffan fiercely, gnashing his teeth to contain his anger. “Mr. Sanderson, I would extend my
congratulations considering the time you’ve spent raising my son.”
“Please.”
Steffan wasn’t intimidated by Bradley. This was the Sandersons’ estate, and if Bradley caused any trouble in front of
the guests, Steffan would make sure he understood the consequences.

birthday party were all influential business leaders. The world’s most prestigious orchestra was performing live, and
top chefs from a renowned restaurant were preparing exquisite dishes nearby.
Steffan guided Bradley to a table where Agatha was seated.
“Mr. Warner, please have a seat.” Steffan stood behind Felix and told Bradley, “If Felix is willing to leave with you, I
have no objections. But if he is unwilling, I’m sorry, no one can take him away.”
This statement carried significant weight.
Bradley gazed into Steffan’s deep blue eyes, sensing an air of determination.
Steffan offered a faint smile and turned to embrace Xara, greeting other guests.
Xara asked anxiously, “Will Bradley cause trouble?”
Steffan replied confidently, “He won’t.”
“But—”
“No ‘buts.'”
Steffan believed that Bradley wouldn’t create a scene on this day. It would serve him no purpose to offend him.
Xara took a few steps away, then glanced back at Bradley, feeling resentment. How could he have the audacity to
appear here? After all, he was the one responsible for Esther’s suffering.
Steffan lightly pinched Xara’s slender waist. “Don’t look at other men.”
Xara retracted her gaze and explained with embarrassment, “You know I was looking at him…”
“No matter the reason, you’re not allowed to look at other men.” Steffan’s lips were close to Xara’s ear, his eyes
exuding intensity. “Xara, in your eyes, in your heart, in your world, there can only be me.”

Nestled against Steffan, Xara softly said, “I have a gift for you.”
“What is it?” Steffan asked.
Xara handed Steffan a meticulously wrapped gift box and playfully winked. “For you.”
Steffan asked in surprise, “What is this?”
“A gift.”
Steffan unwrapped the elegant packaging to find a pregnancy kit. Inside was a pregnancy test stick with two bright
red lines.
“You… are pregnant?!”
