Chapter 1454
However, there was no one there.
They only saw a black SUV slowly drive away.
Ellinor’s frozen expression slowly warmed up. She turned around gently and said to her son, “Alright, this is the last
time. No matter what, you cannot run around on your own anymore. Mommy will worry about you, okay?”
Tristan stared blankly at Ellinor. After watching her soften from her serious demeanor and softly talk to him, he
suddenly stopped resisting.
He didn’t like his ‘mommy’ named Sophia. No matter what that ‘mommy’ said to him, he didn’t like it. He always
strongly resisted her.
Ellinor hugged her son, enclosing him tightly in her arms as she patted his back gently. “Adrian, you like Mechanical

Tristan clearly knew his name wasn’t Adrian, but he couldn’t resist this gentle woman’s coaxing. He nodded and
leaned on her shoulder. “Okay!”
Everyone smiled as they watched the mother and son make up.
Only Layla was frowning with a heavy heart.
Greenhaven Hotel.
When they returned to the hotel, Adrian was already asleep in Marcus’ arms.
After Sophia pushed the man into the suite’s bedroom, she reached out to hold the child, intending to put him to
bed.
But as soon as her hands touched the child, he started crying in his sleep. When she pulled her hands back, he
stopped crying.
After several failed attempts to hold the child, Sophia frowned in frustration. “What’s with this kid? Can’t he stay put
even when he’s asleep?”
The man looked at his sleeping son in his arms with loving eyes. “Alright, I can take care of Tristan myself. Go rest.”/
Sophia grew upset as she looked at the child she single-handedly raised but who was completely indifferent to her.
“Marcus, don’t you think Tristan has been acting differently?”
Although the kid was never close to her, he had never rejected her to this extent. It was strange.
The man didn’t notice anything amiss at the moment. “He must have been uncomfortable when he slept in the car
and is a bit cranky. You know how he has always been a grouch when he wakes up, right?”
Sophia sighed unhappily, thinking to herself that she would lose patience with this child sooner or later.
The kid was always grouchy with her, but never with his dad.
Clearly, he was playing favorites

“Alright, I’m going to take a shower. Marcus, please put Tristan down and rest for a while; carrying him all the way
must’ve been tiring.”
The man nodded slightly and hummed in agreement.
After Sophia went into the bathroom, Marcus wheeled himself to the bedside, gently holding his son as he placed
him on the edge of the bed and pushed him a bit further in.
Adrian simply frowned a little. He was uncomfortable with the change in position, but he rolled over and did not
wake up crying.
Marcus then pulled a blanket over the child.
At this point, Adrian mumbled a few words in his sleep.
“Mommy, Adrian wants chocolate… Mommy, hold me to sleep…”
The man was slightly taken aback.
Adrian?
Who was Adrian?
Why did his son murmur a name he had never heard before?
