Anxiety and nervousness coursed through Erica as she had not received Matthew's reply for a long time. Was he angry as Rhea had said?
'Perhaps I should forget about it. After all, it's difficult to figure out what's on a man's mind!' Since it was futile to continue guessing, she decided to wait until he returned.

Once inside, Tam put aside the valuable gifts that he had brought. Suppressing the urge to hug his son, he and his wife first greeted the older Li family members who stood before them in the living room. "Hi, Mr. and Mrs. Li." Then he nodded to Chantel and Yvette. "I am Tam Wu, Ethan's biological father, and this is my wife, Yanny Gao. Thank you for taking care of Ethan for so long."

Chantel looked at Blair with concern while Yvette tried to hold back the tears that threatened to spill down her cheeks.
As no one spoke for a while, the atmosphere became a little awkward. Tam steeled himself and broke the silence. "I know that all of this has been my fault, and I apologize. My actions have caused a lot of trouble, especially for Erica. We'll take Ethan to Australia and settle there. We won't return to Y City again. My wife is kind, and she will treat Ethan well. Please don't worry as we'll take good care of him!"
Yanny had mixed feelings as she looked at the wide-eyed little boy, who was holding a toy car. 'No wonder Tam wants to take him home. It isn't just fatherly love and instinct that draws him to Ethan. This boy is so cute that anyone would want to hug him at first sight, ' she thought.

Ten minutes later, her phone rang again. She thought it was Tam, so she answered the phone without even looking at the screen. "Are you here yet?"
"Yes. How do you know?"
It was not Tam's voice.
Erica checked the number. It was not Tam's. "Who is this?"
"It's me. Watkins. You saved my number. How could you not know it was me?" Watkins had watched Erica save his phone number when they were partying the other day.
Confusion coursed through Erica. She remembered that she had saved his phone number, but why was his name no longer on her contact list? "It's so strange. I lost both your WeChat account and phone number. Is my phone infected with a virus?"
That was the only possibility that she could think of. But, she hadn't downloaded from or browsed any unsafe website recently. How could a virus attack her phone?
