Chapter 225: Chapter 225: Charging Woman

At the same time,

Connor Bell returned home with a smile still on his face.

He went to find Madame Bell in the backyard and excitedly said, "Madame, I have some great news to tell you."

Madame Bell set down the flowers she was holding and looked at Connor Bell with curiosity, "What great news? You seem so happy."

Connor Bell took Madame Bell’s hand, his voice filled with emotion, "I found our daughter."

Madame Bell instantly covered her red lips, her face lit up with joy, and then tears welled up in her eyes, "Really? Where is she?"

Connor Bell nodded, pulling Madame Bell into his embrace, "Don’t cry, it’s true. We’ll see her tonight, and you know her too."

"That’s wonderful, after so many years, we finally found her," Madame Bell suddenly realized, "I know her?"

"Yes, you know her, it’s Julia Land." Connor Bell had not expected that their daughter was so close.

"Is it really her?" Surprise flashed in Madame Bell’s eyes as she stepped out of Connor Bell’s embrace, shocked.

"It is her," Connor Bell gently patted the back of Madame Bell’s hand, sighing.

Madame Bell’s emotions were a mix of surprise and complexity for a moment.

However, she would naturally love her own daughter if she found her.

"Madame, I’ve set the meeting place at our home, what do you think? It’s more convenient to talk at home."

"Of course, you should ask the child first if she has any objections; if not, then set it at home." Madame Bell wiped her tears and said with a smile.

Connor Bell sent Julia Land the time and meeting place.

Julia Land quickly replied with a message, [OK]

**

Julia Land put down her phone, feeling a mix of emotions.

She took a deep breath and picked up the phone to dial James Thompson’s number.

The call was quickly answered by James Thompson’s gentle voice, "Little Julia, what’s up?"

"Mr. Thompson," Julia Land tried to steady her voice, "Tonight I’m meeting with the Bell couple, the parentage test results are out, they are my biological parents."

"Do you need me to accompany you? Mr. Thompson’s shoulder is always there for you to lean on." James Thompson gestured for Jasper Winters to leave the study first; Jasper Winters nodded, walked out of the study, and closed the door.

Hearing his words, Julia Land felt a bittersweet warmth in her heart, "OK, you go pick up your daughter from kindergarten first, and we’ll meet at six o’clock downstairs at Moore Group."

After discussing, they hung up the call.

James Thompson walked out of the study and saw Jasper Winters standing outside; he instructed, "Go buy a suitable gift for the Bell couple."

Regardless, everything that needed to be prepared for Julia had to be prepared.

Jasper Winters nodded in agreement and immediately left to get the gifts.

James Thompson also prepared to pick up Dale Land from kindergarten.

He didn’t want to delegate the task of picking the child to his subordinates.

He had missed several years of his daughter’s growing up, and now he wanted to participate personally in her life.

Seeing James Thompson appear, the little one excitedly ran over, sweetly calling, "Daddy! Dale missed you so much, missed Mommy too!"

James Thompson chuckled and lightly tapped his daughter’s forehead with his index finger, "Get in the car."

Climbing into the car, Dale Land put down her bag, sat down, and turned to share with James Thompson who was getting into the car, "Daddy, my good friend gave me two candies, one for you and the other for Mommy."

"Good friend? Who is it?"

James Thompson first helped his little one buckle up, his eyes softly bright, then casually took the candy from her little hand.

Dale Land’s small eyes followed the candy as she nodded, "Good friend, his name is Julius Lincoln."

James Thompson was well aware of the family backgrounds of his daughter’s classmates; Julius Lincoln belonged to the Lincoln Family.

Throughout the drive, Dale Land shared stories from her class with James Thompson.

She smiled, revealing her small canines, looking incredibly adorable.

James Thompson listened carefully, occasionally responding.

Once home, James Thompson entrusted his daughter to the butler, squatting down to instruct, "Dale, listen to Butler Tao, Mommy and Daddy have some things to take care of, we’ll be back to spend the evening with you."

Dale Land obediently nodded, "OK, Daddy, come back early, I’ll be good."

James Thompson smiled and ruffled his daughter’s hair, "Alright."

He stood up, took the gifts Jasper Winters had prepared, and drove directly to Moore Group.

When the car arrived at Moore Group, he already saw Julia Land waiting there.

"Nervous? Want me to tell you a joke?"

"No need." Julia Land had just fastened her seatbelt but then changed her mind, "Actually, go ahead, tell me a joke."

She looked at Mr. Thompson skeptically; did he really know any jokes?

James Thompson smiled, directly pulled out his phone to search, as there were plenty online.

Julia Land, "...". She was really impressed.

James Thompson coughed lightly, "Do you know why ducks can fly into the sky?"

Julia Land, with an expressionless face, responded almost without emotion, "Because they have ’wings.’"

James Thompson, "... really smart."

Julia Land smiled, a forced smile, but it seemed her nerves were slightly eased, "Mmm."

Mr. Thompson gave up on the jokes.

The two of them chatted sporadically along the way, and soon time had passed.

The car suddenly emergency braked.

The car suddenly emergency braked, emitting a piercing sound.

Due to inertia, Julia Land’s body was thrown forward, but thankfully, the seat belt held her tightly.

"What happened?" Julia Land asked, still shaken.

The bodyguard in the passenger seat turned around and said, "A woman suddenly dashed across."

**

The doors of the Bell family home were wide open, the lights bright.

Connor Bell and Madame Bell stood at the doorway, faces filled with anticipation and tension.

Time slowly passed, the agreed meeting time of six o’clock now turned to seven.

Connor Bell and Madame Bell went directly to the door to wait.

They had waited a long time; the meeting was originally around six o’clock, but now it was already seven.

Connor Bell frowned, a hint of anxiousness on his face; he had called Julia Land three times, but each time there was no answer.

Madame Bell also appeared worried, her eyebrows furrowed, "Is she upset with us? Or is there some problem? Husband, should we call again?"

"There must be something, or perhaps a delay on the road." When Connor Bell was about to make another call, he saw a black sedan approaching, he stopped dialing, "Here they are."

Julia Land sat in the car and saw the Bell couple.

The driver opened the car door, and Julia Land got out, followed by James Thompson.

"Little Julia," Madame Bell couldn’t wait and took a step forward calling out.

Julia Land looked towards the Bell couple, a faint smile on her lips, "Sorry, there was a little incident on the road."

She still couldn’t call out ’Dad’ and ’Mom,’ as they were still strangers to each other.

After getting out of the car, James Thompson went to hand over the gifts to the Bell family’s butler, standing next to Julia Land, he nodded to the Bell couple, "Uncle, Auntie, hello."

Madame Bell, initially excited to hold Julia’s hand, heard James Thompson’s voice, her emotions immediately dampened.

The conflict from before was still fresh in Madame Bell’s memory.
