“I'm proud of you too.” Shane patted Sharon on the shoulder with a huge smile.
Connor did the same. “I am too.”
Upon hearing her parents and brother telling her that they were proud of her, Sharon
flashed all of them a happy grin despite her missing tooth. It was both amusing and
adorable.
“All right, then. Let's go to the technopole first, then we'll visit the aquarium. What do you
guys think?” Natalie asked the twins.
Needless to say, the children had no objections. Both of them nodded in agreement.
“Sounds good.”
“Then that's settled,” Shane concluded before knocking on the privacy screen between
the back seats and the driver's seat.
Rolling down the privacy screen, Silas peeked at the family of four from the rearview
mirror. “What can I do for you, Mr. Thompson?”
“Turn around. Head for the technopole,” Shane answered.
“Yes, sir,” Silas replied politely before turning on the navigation app.
When Connor heard the animated voice directing them to the technopole, he beamed in
excitement and started to rave about the advanced technologies that could be found
there.
Even though Sharon could not understand, she could not help but look at Connor in
admiration.
She had always found Connor impressive whenever he shared his knowledge of
technology.
Natalie was not well-versed in advanced technology either, but she could understand bits
and pieces of it.
Contrarily, Shane could understand everything Connor was saying. The father-son pair
started conversing and discussing the advancement of technology.
Still hugging Sharon in her arms, Natalie smiled at the harmonious exchange between the
father-son pair. The family of four looked happy and warm. Peering at them from the
rearview mirror, Silas could not help but feel a bit jealous and in awe.
Shane had told him that once Natalie's competition ended, Silas could assume the position
of CEO in a subsidiary company. By then, Silas would have a lot of free time on his hands.
He would no longer have to answer to Shane all the time and would have more time to
spend with his girlfriend.
Once I'm CEO, the first thing I'll do is marry Sal, then we can have two kids. Hopefully,
we'll get a boy and a girl. When that happens, our family of four will surely be as blessed
as Mr. Thompson's family. That's such an amazing picture!
Silas began to fantasize about his future as he continued driving.
Soon, they arrived at the technopole.
Connor immediately hopped out of the car and took in all of the futuristic buildings and
skyscrapers around him in excitement. “This is it! This is the place! I've wanted to come
here for so long. I'm finally here today!”
Pumping his fists into the air, Connor cheered in delight.
Natalie and Shane helped Sharon out of the car. When they saw how ecstatic Connor was,
they could not help but break into smiles of their own.
“Well, what are you standing here for? Didn't you say that you've wanted to come here for
a long time? Go on inside!” Natalie placed a hand on Connor's shoulder and urged

Nodding fervently, Connor sprinted toward the entrance of the technopole.
Natalie and Shane each held one of Sharon's tiny hands and followed behind Connor.
The family of four had an amazing time bonding with each other.
Meanwhile, Stanley had contacted Sean.
Since he could not get hold of the hypnotist that Joyce had seen from Shane and Natalie,
he decided to obtain that information from Sean.
Sean was one of the first people to know about Joyce seeing a hypnotist so that she would
forget about Stanley. Hence, Sean should know the identity of Joyce's hypnotist.
“Dr. Quinn, it's been a while,” Sean greeted cheerfully upon picking up the phone as
though he and Stanley were old friends.
Conversely, Stanley spoke in an indifferent manner. “I didn't call you to catch up.”
“I know that.” Sean toyed with a gun in his hand as he replied. “After all, we're not even
friends. It makes more sense if we don't catch up. So, go on. What are you calling me for?”
“I want to know the identity of the hypnotist that hypnotized Joyce.” Stanley did not beat
around the bush either and jumped straight into the topic.
Sean froze momentarily before raising an eyebrow. The gun in his hand stopped moving.
“Oh? I don't suppose you're trying to reverse the hypnosis by asking me that?”
Stanley did not respond.
