Chapter 254 After the Reclaim of His Daughter, Remington's Slyness
"The Nelson Group has sent an invitation, stating that tomorrow they will hold a child custody transfer ceremony at the Celestial Hotel in Center City. They request your presence!"
Isn't this hitting where it hurts?
Stealing the girl and asking her to help deliver the girl home?
She had truly underestimated the audacity of Remington Nelson!
"Nonsense! I'm not going!"
Maggie Taylor slumped in her chair, visibly frustrated. Her assistant, sensing her distress, continued cautiously, "Mrs. Taylor, but the police and mainstream media will be present. If you don't attend, what if..."
"Get out! Just get out!"
Maggie didn't want to hear it. She needed some time alone to gather herself.
The assistant hurriedly left the office, closing the door behind her.
Maggie sighed deeply. She realized she had been played badly in this situation-attempting to steal chickens and losing the rice. She had lost both the girl and her dignity.

Remington had meticulously arranged everything.
He had elevated Maggie Taylor to a position where even if she wanted to back out, the public wouldn't tolerate it.
Remington was confident in this approach because he understood Maggie's character. As a woman who cared about her reputation and image, she couldn't afford to disregard them.
Back home, Remington informed Cecelia about the upcoming custody event.
"Good move! Maggie Taylor won't have a good way to respond to this!"
"Yes! You'll be attending with me tomorrow!"
"Sure!"
At noon, a lavish lunch was prepared in the Nelson Residence, with Samson and Sabrina, the siblings, returning as well. The whole family gathered together.
With Doris's return, the Nelson Family's joy was multiplied.
They all enjoyed a harmonious lunch together.
In the afternoon, the kids played in the garden, while Cecelia sat on a swing chair watching them.
Rarely did they have such a peaceful and enjoyable moment. Remington approached her, sitting beside her, his long arm naturally draped around her.
Being with his beloved woman, watching their kids play-wasn't this the beautiful future Remington had envisioned?
Thinking about accommodations for the night, Remington lowered his head and asked, "Cece, can you stay the night here?"
"I need to go back. I can't keep staying here indefinitely."
"You can stay here as long as you want, for as long as you need! If you leave, what about the kids?"
"I can take Doris with me. She just returned, and we still need time to bond. I need to be with her."
"I want to stay with you too. We need to build our own bond!"
Leaning his head on Cecelia's shoulder, Remington showed a rare dependence.
"Are you a cat? So clingy?"
"Exactly, my dear owner. You can stroke my fur!"
"Go away!"
Cecelia laughed, trying to push him away. She attempted several times but failed, eventually just letting him be.
From a distance, Samson approached. He had intended to discuss some company matters with his cousin Remi, but seeing this heartwarming scene, he didn't have the heart to interrupt and quietly withdrew.
Cecelia's phone rang; it was a message from Adam.
A picture accompanied a short message.
Remington looked up and saw the image-a young man with a stylish appearance. His spirits instantly lifted.
"Who's this?"
"A friend."
"Let me see!"
Remington snatched her phone, enlarging the picture. The young man looked quite handsome and posed stylishly.
The username was "Adam." He remembered the name.

*This was a good read... Why this ending...should be more to this story....
This was a rant for read. I was disappointed because the ending really leaves you hanging. Why?...
