Brenna felt a bit resigned, finally grasping the extent of Ellie's frustrations with her son Patrick would often see a good-looking man and assert that they resembled each other, wondering if the man could be his father "He's not your father," Brenna said, softly patting Patrick's head and tousling his hair to soothe him The smile quickly faded from Patrick's face. He released Ethan's leg and stepped back to Brenna's side, his expression one of deep sadness. He gazed up at Brenna, his eyes glossy with tears on the brink of spilling. His mother had promised that upon their return, they would see his father.

He had been back in the country for several hours now but still hadn't met his father. 'Did my Mommy Be to me? Do I really have a father?" Brenna comforted him softly, saying, "Everyone has a mom and dad, and so do you. Once your mom has gotten enough rest, she'll surely take you to see your dad." Patrick gave a reluctant nod, his lips pursed in silence.

Ethan observed the little boy with intrigue, curious about who the good-looking child belonged to.

"Whose child is this?" he asked casually.

Brenna remembered Ellie's advice to keep information from Ethan. She replied, "He's a friend's child, recently back from overseas." Ethan didn't press further and just nodded.

Later that night, Brenna arrived haround ten o'clock.

Patrick hopped out of the car and, upon seeing the expansive, luxurious house, dashed inside full of excitement. "Wow! Mommy Brenna, your house is so big and beautiful!" he exclaimed joyfully, quickly scouting the first floor.

His loud enthusiasm caught the attention of Shepard, Giselle, and Dalton, who were on the fourth floor and cdown to see what was happening.

Patrick, ever the energetic child, saw Shepard and Giselle and ran up to them with a bright smile, saying, "Good evening!" fully Shepard was instantly charmed by the little boy, thinking how delightful it would be to have such a spirited and adorable grandson.

"What's your name, young man?" Shepard asked.

Shepard and Giselle shared a chuckle and then turned to Brenna as she approached.

The moment he saw the little boy-charming and full of style-he felt an instant warmth toward him and instinctively reached out to gently pat his head.

Patrick looked up at Dalton and greeted him cheerfully.

Dalton said warmly, "You're such a polite young man! How old are you?" Patrick replied brightly, "I'm six years old." Brenna said, "Dalton, could you let him sleep in your room tonight? And maybe help him with his bath?" Dalton readily agreed and led the boy upstairs to the fourth floor.

Giselle, who had heard Patrick calling Brenna Mommy, said, "Why does the child call you Mommy? That seems inappropriate." Brenna explained as they sat down, "When I was living in Norview, I met his mother. She was pregnant and had severed ties with her family, managing everything by herself. I was also going through a tough time, so we ended up sharing an apartment. After Patrick was born, I bechis godmother, and his mother went back to work. We took turns looking after him based on our schedules. It continued like that until I cback here. Initially, he called'godmother', but eventually, he started calling'Mommy' because he felt 'godmother' wasn't intimate enough." Giselle understood the matter but disapproved of it. "You're not married, and having a child call you Mommy might lead people to think you have a child out of wedlock. It would be better if he didn't call you that." Brenna didn't agree. She believed her mother was overthinking the matter.

Shepard said to Brenna, "Your mother is right. His real mother might not appreciate him calling you Mommy. It's important to keep relationships clear. He already has a mother; calling you Mommy is confusing. And what about his father? If you're his Mommy, what does that imply about your relationship with his father?" Brenna responded, "You're right, Dad. I'll talk to him about this tomorrow." "Which family is he from?" Shepard asked.

"He belongs to the Russell family," Brenna answered. "Dad, please don't mention this to Mr. Russell. The Russell family is unaware of the child's existence. The boy takes his mother's last name."
