Chapter 390
He was bound to figure out what was wrong with his business in Everett’s home!
Just as Everett was about to speak, Jeffrey, anxious to avoid a clash between father and son at their
first meeting, quickly intervened, “Um…. Everett, it’s your first meeting. Of course, he’s going to be a bit
wary! Take him home and ask him step by step later! Lef’s go eat now I’m starving. and he must be
too!”
With that, Jeffrey gave Langston an intentional look.
Upon receiving the hint, Langston reluctantly nodded, “Yeah, I’m hungry
“Alright” Everett, faced with this sudden son, felt somewhat helpless.
Luckily, Jeffrey was there to ease the awkwardness.

Watching Langston eat in silence, Jeffrey leaned over to Everett and whispered, “I tell you your son is a
whiz kid
Everett cast him a glance, “I’ve noticed”
“The software collapse at Lopez Corporation was probably his doing”
Only then did Jeffrey connect the dots. I wouldn’t have guessed if you hadn’t mentioned it! Well, you
have some good genes.
Everett shot him a look. “If you want a kid, go have your own‘
“Tsk! My son might not be so smart Jeffrey chuckled, “Your son is too cute, like a little adult. You have
no experience with kids, why not give him to me?”
Jeffrey wanted to take back his previous statement about disliking kids!
He loved kids! Loved them to pieces!
“No.” Everett’s refusal was simple and direct
“Why
not? You don’t know how to take care of a kid and you’re busy with work! But I have plenty of time to
spare.”
Everett softened his gaze as he looked at Langston carefully chewing his food. Their bond seemed to
be suddenly connected.
“I’ll learn how to get along well with the kid”
“You don’t even know who his mother is. Are you willing to devote time to him?”
“He’s my son. It’s my duty.” Everett was solemn and serious in histone
Failing his plan, Jeffrey felt deflated
“I wish I hadn’t told you! I should we secretly taken him in!”
He nudged Langston, “Kid, I agree to your deal. Give me that number.”

Everett was confused, “What deal?”
“Thats our secret!
Everett watched them chattering away with a strange sensation,
Upon reflection, was he a tad jealous?
“Langston, if you want a computer, I can get you the most advanced one in the world.” Everett’s offer
was as casual as buying a toy for a kid.
Sure enough, Langston’s eyes sparkled at the offer.
“Really?
“Of course”
Upon hearing this, Jeffrey was immediately indignant, “Everett, that’s not fair! You can’t bribe a kid with
money!”
“My son just wants a computer”
“You havent done a DNA test yet! What if he’s not? Jelhey’s only hope was this.
Everett imply raised an eyebrow, “You think there’s any doubt?”
