Jeffrey couldn’t help but marvel at their uncanny resemblance. Langston looked identical to Everett,
especially when he furrowed his brow in that same sericus way that could easily get under one’s skin
“I knew il! He’s a deadbeat dada‘
“You’re right! He certainly is Jeffrey bent down to lift Langston and planted a peck on his cheek. “Come
on, I will take you out for some good grub. Let’s forget about that jerk. If we see him tomorrow, 111 kick
him for you!
Langston ncdded vigerously “Okay!”
Jeffrey took him so a local diner. He had no idea what kids typically ate, so he just ordered what
seemed fancy. He filled the table with a variety of dishes.
Before they could even finish eating, a call from Heather came through. After seeing her name flash on
the screen, Jeffrey realized he was not in the mood to answer but he knew she would not let it slide

“Hello?
“Where are you. Jeffrey? Heather’s voice was laced with urgency
“Im out havir a dinner
“I heard there was a kid who looks exactly like Everett looking for him at the office today.”
Jeffrey rubbed his temple. He knew this news would eventually reach her.
“I think there might have been something like that.”
“Don’t play dumb with me. The security guard said they couldn’t find Everett, so they sent the kid to
your office. Don’t tell me you didn’t know!” As soon as Heather heard the news, she immediately called
Jeffrey. She didn’t waste a single second
Jeffrey sighed. “Why are you interrogating me? The kid isn’t mine, and I didn’t invite him here.”
“Then where is he now?”
Jeffrey glanced at Langston, deciding to follow his lead
“I don’t know.”
“Where did he go?”
“I don’t know.”
“Who picked him up?”
“I don’t know”
“Jeffrey!” Heather’s voice was tinged with anger. “You know this is important to me! If that child is really
Everett’s, have you considered what I should do?”
Even Heather couldn’t bear to think about the possibility that it was true. Was she expected to accept
that he had a child with another
woman?
“What’s wrong with you? if that child is Everett’s, what’s it to you?” Jeffrey couldn’t understand her
possessive lone. “At most, you two are friends now You’re probably even just colleagues in Everett’s
eyes. And that too is only because his father forced him to work with you. His having a child has

1 can’t accept being a stepmother!”
*Don’t worry, Evereit doesn’t plan on making you one”
Heather fell silent.
Jeffrey felt h¿ face harden, and he murmured, ‘It’s been years; you should understand by now. Don’t
pretend to be the heiress of the Lopez Corporation. Until he agrees, you’re nal”
“Amanda.”
“Do you plan on marrying his mother?” Jeffrey didn’t know why he was saying these things, but he
couldn’t stop himself. He was fed up with Heather living in her fantasy world, where she always tried to
interfore in Everett’s life.
Jeffrey had come to realize that Heather wasnt as innocent as she seemed. She would do anything to
get Everett, which was far more terrifying than mere jealousy.
Love can be fought for but there was no need to harm someone’s mother. That was downright scory
“Jeffrey, I can’t believe you’re not on my side either What? Has Dorothy charmed you too? I thought we
were old friends!!
