The Villain Mom Awakens — Going Viral by Parenting on a Reality Show Chapter 442 - 444: Recording Ends

Margaret Jennings also shared the story of how she and Miles Sanders t.

"We t quite naturally, at a banquet. According to him, it was love at first sight, but I’ve never believed in that sort of thing. Plus, he’s younger than . When we first started spending ti together, I always thought he was a bit frivolous. I an, how could he throw around words like ’like’ and ’love’ after knowing for only a few days?"

"Then, out of the blue, he beca a junior colleague at my agency, and my manager asked to look after him. I discovered he wasn’t just being frivolous; he’s a very passionate person who loves grand gestures. He was always considerate of my feelings and never let the conversation get awkward. We slowly beca a couple. Because of our age difference, I was always hesitant about marriage. I wasn’t sure if he was just caught up in the novelty of it all. We dated like that for five years before he proposed, and I accepted."

"The public wasn’t very optimistic about us. I was extrely anxious when we first got married, and I had trouble adjusting to the new family dynamics. He was always by my side comforting . He’s younger than and can be quite clingy, but our relationship isn’t the ’mother and son’ dynamic the dia portrays. In fact, most of the ti, he’s the one taking care of ."

Carina Sanders tilted her head up and said with a mischievous smile, "Dad would be over the moon if he heard Mom praising him like that!"

A hint of envy flickered in Chelsea Raines’s eyes. Beside her, Jared Woods asked curiously, "Mom, how did you and Dad et?"

Her son’s eyes were sparkling, and Chelsea Raines couldn’t bring herself to admit that she was after Gene Woods’s money while he was after her looks. Clearing her throat, she decided to embellish the story a bit. "Your dad and I also t at a banquet. He confessed his feelings for , drove to and from the set every day, and even pulled so strings to get roles."

Jared Woods let out an impressed "Wow!" and asked, "So does that an I was born from lots of love, too?"

Chelsea Raines didn’t know how to answer, but Ruby Preston chid in, "Of course you were. Your parents’ hopes for you, the love from your paternal grandparents, the tender care from your maternal grandparents—that’s all love. You are a child who was born from love, Jared."

Jared Woods’s eyes lit up, and he unconsciously puffed out his little chest. But just as quickly, his shoulders slumped. "But why did Dad suddenly stop loving ? Does he have another son sowhere? He used to praise when I ate a lot, saying I’d grow up strong and tall. But now, he just says I eat like a pig."

Chelsea Raines clenched her fists. She wanted nothing more than to fly to Veridia that very instant and tear that bastard Gene Woods’s mouth right off his face.

Ruby Preston said, "Jared, don’t pay him any mind. There are people all around who have always loved you, and in the future, even more people will love you. They’ll love you for a very, very long ti..."

Jared Woods nodded. Hearing that so many people loved him seed to lessen his disappointnt in Gene Woods.

Ian squeezed Naomi Kenway’s hand and tilted his head. "Mommy, was I born from lots of love, too?"

"Of course, sweetie," Naomi Kenway said, pinching his fair, tender cheek. "From lots and lots and lots of love."

Since everyone got along so well, the cast mbers all worked together during the two-day, two-night shoot, completing their tasks in no ti.

The trip for the ninth episode soon ca to an end, and Naomi Kenway said her goodbyes to the others at the airport.

"Daddy!" Ian suddenly shouted, throwing himself into Ethan Shaw’s arms.

Ethan Shaw laughed, scooping him up with one arm. Then, as Naomi Kenway stared in stunned silence, he lifted her up too.

Ian let out an impressed "Wow!" "Daddy’s so strong! I want to grow up big and tall like Daddy, so I can hold both Mommy and Daddy at the sa ti!"

Noticing the crowd of fans screaming and taking pictures around them, Naomi Kenway blushed slightly. "Put down. You can hold when we get ho."

"So you’ll let hold you at ho?"

Naomi Kenway nodded eagerly.

"Give a kiss, and I’ll put you down."

"You... Ethan Shaw, since when did you get so shaless?"

"We haven’t seen each other for two days and two nights. Indulge my shalessness a little. No kiss? Fine, we’ll just walk off like this."

As he spoke, he carried both Naomi Kenway and Ian a few steps forward.

Ian, finding this highly amusing, started giggling.

"Hey, wait..."

Naomi Kenway quickly planted a kiss on Ethan Shaw’s cheek. "There, happy now? Put down." A faint blush crept up her cheeks.

Ethan Shaw chuckled, satisfied. "You still blush so easily."

True to his word, he set Naomi Kenway down.

Ian stretched his arms out to Naomi Kenway, clamoring, "I want a kiss, too! I want a kiss, too..."

Naomi Kenway gathered the warm, sweet-slling bundle into her arms and smilingly planted a kiss on his cheek.

Ian happily wrapped his arms around Naomi Kenway’s neck and kissed her cheek in return. "MWAH~"

Ethan Shaw chuckled to himself, feeling a little jealous of his son. ’His wife certainly wasn’t that enthusiastic when she kissed him.’

Liam Sherman followed behind, carrying their two suitcases—one large, one small. He seed completely accustod to such scenes. As he walked on, he found himself wondering when his own wife would get a vacation.

Having taken over the family business, Naomi Kenway dove right into work the mont she got ho.

Ethan Shaw stayed by her side, saying, "There’s a lot to deal with at Kenway Group. You’ll be swamped if you have to handle it all yourself. I’ve picked out a few highly capable people to help you. You should go et them tomorrow."

Naomi Kenway’s eyes lit up. Kenway Group had been on a steady decline ever since Jackson Kensington took over, and it was impossible to retain any real talent. The current managent team had almost no one she could rely on. She’d been trying to recruit new people, but that would obviously take a significant amount of ti.

"You’ve been such a huge help. Thank you, honey."

"Your ’thank you’ isn’t what I want."

"Then..."

Ethan Shaw pulled Naomi Kenway into his embrace. He lowered his head, inhaling deeply from the nape of her neck. "How about you save so of that energy for ?"

"I’ll be gentler this ti."

His touch was indeed much lighter, but the press of his lips on her sensitive skin sent an irrepressible tingle through her.

Naomi Kenway flinched back slightly, her arms tightening around his neck. "Y-You... even gentler..."

Following the latest lead from a private investigator, Naomi Kenway went to the Veridia Suburbs with her bodyguards, her heart heavy and conflicted.

Because the location was so remote, a worried Ethan Shaw had insisted on coming with her.

"Ms. Kenway, look. This is where the accident happened. According to the dia reports at the ti, this is where your mother’s car collided with a large truck. Her car exploded before sinking into the sea. The truck driver fled the scene. By the ti police were alerted, they spent days searching the waters but ca up empty-handed. It was deed impossible for anyone to have survived. The case was ruled an accident, and the truck driver, a man surnad Zhang, turned himself in five days later."
