Chapter 249 Reunion of Father and Son
In an instant, Samuel broke into tears. He felt like he was dreaming and couldn’t believe it.
He saw his son again!
His son had grown up!
“It’s not an illusion, Dad. I am your son, Remington. I have grown up… Dad…‘
Remington and Samuel hugged each other tightly. The father and son, separated for eighteen years, were meeting again, and both moved to tears.
“I thought I would never have a chance to see you all again…”
Samuel had yearned for his family every moment during his captivity, missing his wife and children, and he never gave up on the hope of escape.
And now, he was finally reunited with his son!
They hugged for a long time before parting.
Gazing into his father’s tearful eyes, Remington asked, “Dad, tell me, what happened eighteen years ago? How did you end up at Shark Base?”
Remington needed to understand if his father’s account matched what Bill had told him.
“It’s been so many years, and it’s quite a long story…”
Samuel sighed deeply. “Eighteen years ago, I went to North America for a business deal…”
From his father’s narration, Remington learned that his father had been doing business in North America, and the people from Shark Base killed his business partner and brought him under their control.
Shark Base’s leader, Donald, demanded Samuel work for them as their puppet and tool to cover their ulterior motives.
Samuel refused; he’d rather die than obey their orders.
The shocking moment came when the Shark Base presented a man who looked exactly like Remington. They claimed he was Remington’s brother.
It was the first time Samuel saw his brother, and both were already under Shark Base’s control. Then came the event where Samuel

was taken hostage, and his brother replaced him in the Nelson family.
Samuel’s account almost matched what Bill told Remington; everything was confirmed.
“Remington, that was the conspiracy of the Shark Base. They imprisoned me, and I couldn’t go home to see you all. But all these years, I missed you so much…
“We missed you too, Dad. Mom, she…”
“What happened to your mom?”
Remington informed his father about the changes in the Nelson family and his mother’s plight.
After listening, Samuel let out a long sigh, “Ah…”
He could understand everything that had happened. They had long. controlled his younger brother, and having children with Renee was also part of their plan.
Later, Samuel’s brother was forced to replace him in the Nelson family and marry Renee. Sadly, it had been a cruel fate for his wife, Aurora Snow.
Aurora didn’t know the truth and thought he had married someone else. How heartbroken must she have been?
Afterward, Aurora fell off a cliff and remained unconscious for many years. It was all so heart– wrenching to think about.
It was all because of Shark Base that the Nelson family suffered like this. Samuel said, “Remington, your uncle has suffered for many years. We owe him too much.
“I know, Dad. Uncle can also reunite with us when you recover and return home!”
“Yes.”
Due to Samuel’s rib fracture, he needed rest and couldn’t embark on long journeys for the time being. Therefore, when Remington returned to the Center City, he left his father at the base fo recuperate.
That night.
At Aroma Villa, Cecelia played with the children for a while before urging them to bathe and do to bed

After tidying up, Cecelia lay in the guest room but couldn’t fall asleep.
Her mind was filled with many thoughts, including Remington and their future together.
Some people are just unforgettable. Just as she was thinking about him, Remington’s call came.
Cecelia looked at the blinking name on the screen and waited a few seconds before answering, “Hello?”
“Cece, are you asleep?”
The seductive voice of the man penetrated her ears through the screen, making her feel a tingling sensation all over her body.
“I’m getting ready to rest. You still up?”
“I miss you, I miss you so much that I can’t sleep. I wish I could hold you while sleeping.
The man’s tone was teasing and alluring.
“It would be better if you could talk more seriously.”
When Cecelia said this, it wasn’t that she disliked the way he talked; instead, her lips curled up slightly.
“You want me to be serious? Alright, let me perform a magic trick for you.
“What kind of magic trick?”
Cecelia wondered if this guy could perform a trick over the phone.
“I’ll count down from three and whatever you think will appear before you. Tell me, what are you thinking right now?”
Cecelia remained silent.
She didn’t tell him that she was currently thinking about him.
“It’s alright if you don’t say it. I already guessed it. Now go to the door, open it, and your wish will come true.”
“Come on, you’re lying. I don’t believe it!”
Cecelia said she didn’t believe him, but she still got up curiously and went to open the door.
She gently opened the door and saw Remington standing tall at the

entrance while still on the call.
Her heart skipped a beat, “When did you come back?”
–
Remington also had his phone in hand, wearing a long black windbreaker that was dusty and travel– worn, and his profound yet gentle gaze fixed on her.
“When you didn’t know. How about it? Did your wish come true?” They were still on the call, and Cecelia blushed with a smile.
Remington put away his phone and conjured up a bouquet behind
his back.
“I specially picked these for you from the north, still with dewdrops! It’s a gift for my beautiful fairy!”
Cecelia accepted the bouquet, which consisted of white daisies adorned with dewdrops.
Despite the late hour of his return, he didn’t forget to bring her flowers, which truly touched her.
“Thank you.”
“Isn’t there any other reward for me?”
“What do you want?”
Remington walked closer, enveloping her in his embrace, his voice husky, “I want… you…”
She had given him a three–month probation period, and Remington seized every opportunity to confess his feelings.
With that, he pulled her into his arms and kissed her passionately. At some point, their relationship blossomed into love.
Cecelia might miss this man more than she had imagined!
The following day, Cecelia and Remington went their separate ways.
Cecelia took the replica of The Collection of Fragrant Clothes and went to the Taylor Group.
Maggie was already at the office, waiting for her. The receptionist led Cecelia directly upstairs.
In the conference room, Cecelia saw Maggie and her team.
“Ms. Taylor.”

“You’re right on time, Miss Linsey.”
Maggie stood up to greet her, and they both took their seats.
“So, did you bring The Collection of Fragrant Clothes?”
M 12:42
“I did, but I only have the first half. The second half is not with me, as I mentioned before.”
“I know, and you can get the second half!”
Maggie seemed confident as if she had everything under control.
Cecelia didn’t say much. She removed a cloth bag and opened it to reveal an exquisite box.
When Maggie saw the box, excitement filled her eyes, and she reached out to take it, but Cecelia pulled it back.
Maggie raised an eyebrow, “Hmm?”
Cecelia chuckled, “Ms. Taylor, I can give you the first half, but today, I must take Doris with me first!”
“Of course, once you sign this exchange agreement, you can take the child away today!”
Maggie had her subordinate hand over the agreement, and Cecelia handed over the box.
Reading the agreement, Cecelia could tell that it contained harsh terms. Maggie wanted to exchange Doris for a complete copy of The Collection of Fragrant Clothes, and Cecelia had to work for Taylor Group unconditionally until they went international.
As Cecelia examined the agreement, Maggie brought in three top experts in the industry to verify the manuscript’s authenticity together.
After careful examination with sophisticated instruments, the experts. whispered something to Maggie.
After hearing their words, Maggie looked shocked and turned to Cecelia, “Cecelia, the manuscript you brought is a replica?”
