Chapter 1483

Adrian sat up, scratching his temple in confusion. “Dad... what are you talking about? I don't quite

understand.”

The man sternly responded, “You're not my son.”

Adrian was taken aback. The guilt on his face was impossible to hide. He grimaced and, after a

while, confessed. “Okay, I admit... I'm not your son, Tristan.”

Marcus, seeing the honesty in the boy, raised an eyebrow. “Why are you pretending to be my son

and coming home with me? Did someone instruct you to do this? What's your objective?”

Adrian quickly shook his head, raising his hands in a plea of innocence. “No, not at all! I don't have

any ulterior motives! I just thought you were handsome and that you have a fatherly vibe. I've never

had a father growing up, so I wanted to see what it feels like.”

Marcus looked at the boy's sincere and pitiful expression, feeling an indescribable tug at his heart.

He had many suspicions, one of which was whether this boy had been disguised by someone to

replace his real son, Tristan, to spy on his life with Sophia.

But he couldn't find any traces of disguise on the boy's face. It felt just like real skin.

!

So he dismissed that suspicion.

Marcus then asked, “When did you replace my son?”

He had a rough idea, remembering when his son started acting differently. He just wanted to

confirm it.

Adrian shrugged. “It really wasn't intentional. It was all a’ coincidence. On Saturday, Mom took me

and my siblings for a picnic. There on the lawn, I saw someone flying a Mechanical Hero kite.

Since I love Mechanical Hero, I followed the string of the kite to find its owner.

Then I saw a boy wearing a Mechanical Hero mask collecting the kite. I walked over and asked him

where he got the kite and begged him to let me wear the mask.

The boy couldn't resist my nagging and took off the mask for me to try.

After I put on the mask, my mom came looking for me. But for some reason, my mom took the boy

away and left me behind.

When I tried to follow my mom, that mean lady stopped me from running, and that's when I saw

you. Then, you guys brought me home.

That's how it all happened.”

After hearing the boy explain the situation, Marcus remembered that Saturday.

Tristan had gone to collect the kite, and when Sophia found him, he was crying non-stop, saying he

wanted to find his mom.

It turned out the mom he was looking for wasn't Sophia, but his real mom.

So the problem was, why did his son look exactly like some other woman's son?

Face resemblance sometimes happened but could it really be this coincidental?

After pondering for a while, Marcus said again, “Call your mom, give her our address, and ask her to

return my son. Also, tell her if anything happens to Tristan, I won't let her off.”

Adrian furrowed his brows. “Don’t worry. My mom is super nice. Your son, Tristan, was probably

mistaken for me because we look alike. My mom will treat him really well.”

Marcus considered himself to be a cautious and skeptical person, but for this absurd situation at

hand, he didn't feel particularly anxious.
