Zayron's rage flared when he heard Susan voice out the truth he didn't want to admit. “Are you blind?

The test result is right in front of you! Can't you read?” he shouted.

Fine! Even if I've mentally prepared myself, it's still difficult for me to accept the result. Who is Simon?

He's Daddy Eddy's relative. I've let everyone down. Now that I've dug up this truth.

Susan stared at the screen for a while before looking at Maxton. “This is all your fault. We wouldn't

have noticed that Jerk Uncle of yours if it wasn't for you. We would still be feigning ignorance and treat

Daddy Eddy as our father. How are we supposed to face Daddy Eddy now with this result?”

“Um...”

Her accusations rendered Maxton speechless. What did I even do? I did nothing, yet f*cking got the

blame. Why do I have to take the blame for the mess that b*stard, Simon, caused?

“D-Destroy the test result, then pretend nothing happened. Can't we just do that? Don't worry. I'll keep

your secret with me. We only have one father, and that's Daddy Eddy.”

Zayron and Susan didn't know how to respond to his suggestion.

It seems there are people worse than us. How do people describe people like him? Righteousness

above family loyalty? No! Inhumane and ruthless.

Zayron glared at Maxton. “You think you did it flawlessly? Your father already knew about it the moment

you went to steal that b*stard's blood, you dumb*ss! He already suspects Susan and I are your Jerk

Uncle's kids. He even told Daddy Eddy about it. All of them already know about Susan and my identity.

Who else can you hide it from?”

Maxton didn't know what to say.

Zayron slammed his laptop shut with a loud thud. “Keep this information under wraps for now. Let's

discuss this again after I meet with that Simon b*stard. It'll be a happy ending for everyone if he's a

human being. If he turns out to be a jerk... I'll castrate him.”

A dead silence fell over the room.

Meanwhile, Artemis was resting in his car with his eyes closed.

Dwayne was talking on the phone in the passenger seat in a low voice. It sounded like he was making

some arrangement.

A short while after, he ended the call and looked over his shoulder at Artemis in the back seat. “Ms.

Jefferson had gone to Century Hotel and reserved a suite next to Ms. Stone's room. Do they know

each other?”

Artemis slowly opened his eyes. The corners of his lips quirked up as he answered, “They don't just

know each other. If I'm correct, they're best friends.”

“Best friends?” Dwayne's brow furrowed at the news. “That must be why Ms. Jefferson was so calm

then. If she knows Juliana, then this lawsuit is a joke. We won't know who's the joker until the end.”

Zayron's raga flarad whan ha haard Susan voica out tha truth ha didn't want to admit. “Ara you blind?

Tha tast rasult is right in front of you! Can't you raad?” ha shoutad.

Fina! Evan if I'va mantally praparad mysalf, it's still difficult for ma to accapt tha rasult. Who is Simon?

Ha's Daddy Eddy's ralativa. I'va lat avaryona down. Now that I'va dug up this truth.

Susan starad at tha scraan for a whila bafora looking at Maxton. “This is all your fault. Wa wouldn't

hava noticad that Jark Uncla of yours if it wasn't for you. Wa would still ba faigning ignoranca and traat

Daddy Eddy as our fathar. How ara wa supposad to faca Daddy Eddy now with this rasult?”

“Um...”

Har accusations randarad Maxton spaachlass. What did I avan do? I did nothing, yat f*cking got tha

blama. Why do I hava to taka tha blama for tha mass that b*stard, Simon, causad?

“D-Dastroy tha tast rasult, than pratand nothing happanad. Can't wa just do that? Don't worry. I'll kaap

your sacrat with ma. Wa only hava ona fathar, and that's Daddy Eddy.”

Zayron and Susan didn't know how to raspond to his suggastion.

It saams thara ara paopla worsa than us. How do paopla dascriba paopla lika him? Rightaousnass

abova family loyalty? No! Inhumana and ruthlass.

Zayron glarad at Maxton. “You think you did it flawlassly? Your fathar alraady knaw about it tha momant

you want to staal that b*stard's blood, you dumb*ss! Ha alraady suspacts Susan and I ara your Jark

Uncla's kids. Ha avan told Daddy Eddy about it. All of tham alraady know about Susan and my idantity.

Who alsa can you hida it from?”

Maxton didn't know what to say.

Zayron slammad his laptop shut with a loud thud. “Kaap this information undar wraps for now. Lat's

discuss this again aftar I maat with that Simon b*stard. It'll ba a happy anding for avaryona if ha's a

human baing. If ha turns out to ba a jark... I'll castrata him.”

A daad silanca fall ovar tha room.

Maanwhila, Artamis was rasting in his car with his ayas closad.

Dwayna was talking on tha phona in tha passangar saat in a low voica. It soundad lika ha was making

soma arrangamant.

A short whila aftar, ha andad tha call and lookad ovar his shouldar at Artamis in tha back saat. “Ms.

Jaffarson had gona to Cantury Hotal and rasarvad a suita naxt to Ms. Stona's room. Do thay know

aach othar?”

Artamis slowly opanad his ayas. Tha cornars of his lips quirkad up as ha answarad, “Thay don't just

know aach othar. If I'm corract, thay'ra bast friands.”

“Bast friands?” Dwayna's brow furrowad at tha naws. “That must ba why Ms. Jaffarson was so calm

than. If sha knows Juliana, than this lawsuit is a joka. Wa won't know who's tha jokar until tha and.”

Artemis chuckled. The best friend I meant wasn't close friends, but... Whatever. The fewer who know

about it, the more mysterious their relationship is. Everything will be revealed in court. I have a feeling

the court's judgment will shock the whole world.

Dwayne noticed Artemis' disinterest in continuing the conversation, so he changed the topic. “Oh right,

has Simon's and that child's paternity test result come out? Are they father and son?”

Artemis didn't respond but instead reached for his laptop. He powered his laptop and logged in to his

hacker account.

His back slowly straightened. His brows furrowed when he saw the latest notification on Kai's system

after hacking into it.

The title of the notification read: Paternity Test Report

He tapped on the file and scrolled through the document until his gaze landed on the final row at the

end.

When he saw the conclusion, he was stunned. His expression hardened, and his body emanated

coldness that could freeze the interior of the car.

His strange reaction caught Dwayne's attention.

Dwayne stretched his upper body into the back seat and snatched the laptop from the dazed Artemis.

A loud gasp echoed in the car in the next second.

“F*ck me! They really are biological father and son!”

He narrowed his eyes at the result. “From my understanding, Barbara is also Ms. Jefferson's daughter.

She's the same age as Zayron, so that makes them twins. Simon managed to land two kids in one

night? Barbara is Simon's daughter? F*ck me!”

Artemis' handsome face darkened. “Stop the car,” he ordered.

The driver stepped on the brakes and stopped the car at the side of the road.

Artemis pointed at the car door as he demanded, “Get out!”

Dwayne blinked at him in shock, thinking he must have heard it wrong. “Me? Get out?”

“Who else?”

Dwayne stood at the side of the road with a laptop in his arms, watching the taillights disappear. He

laughed at the anger bubbling within him.

F*ck! I can't believe I got kicked out of the car. So, a guy like him is capable of doing something as

stupid as this. How am I supposed to get back? I don't have any money on me.

The doorbell was ringing at the Shelbert Condominium. Yet the three kids in the living room feigned

deafness to the continuous chime.

Artemis chuckled. The best friend I meant wasn't close friends, but... Whatever. The fewer who know

about it, the more mysterious their relationship is. Everything will be revealed in court. I have a feeling

the court's judgment will shock the whole world.

They continued to indulge in playing games, scrolling through Twitter, and watching television.

Bay has the keys, so she can't be the one knocking on the door. Daddy Eddy will give us a call before

he drops by, so he's out of the equation too. Everyone else gets the same treatment other than those

two—kept waiting.

After the ringing continued for a few more minutes, Hado couldn't take it any longer. It got up to its feet

and went to the doorway to open the door.

Artemis' expression turned stony when he saw it was the dog who opened the door again. He lifted his

leg and kicked the dog.

The thud that echoed from the doorway caught the kids' attention.

Zayron leaped up from the couch and yelled, “Who dares to kick my brother? Get your *ss in here, you

f*cker!”

Maxton shouted, “Do you have a death wish? How dare you kick my brother's brother? Get—”

He couldn't finish his sentence when he saw the man standing in the doorway.

I don't have the courage to act as the boss in front of my father.

Artemis strolled in and swept a glance across the room. When his gaze landed on the trash piling on

the floor, the corner of his lips twitched.

This place looks like some beggar's den. I don't know how anyone can live here.

“Go pack your things. You'll be staying at my private mansion for a few days. Your mommy won't be

back for a while.”

Zayron pursed his lips. “Bailey is being unfair. How could she leave me here while she gets free meals

from the government?”

Artemis leveled his gaze at the child's face. The familiar eyes, brows, and features. They look like

mine. The more I look at him, the more similarities I notice. It's like he's cut out from the same cloth as

me. He looks a bit like Maxton too. They look like brothers. Is he my nephew? Yet why do I feel like he

takes after me more? His looks are a copy of mine. His character, attitude down to his insolence are

the same as mine. With all these similarities, he should be my son. That's how genetics work, right?

Now I'm hoping I did get drunk and slept with his mother.

“Your mom isn't imprisoned. She's temporarily staying at a five-star hotel, so go and pack your things

and follow me to my house. This place has been compromised. The reporters will start knocking on

your door anytime now. I don't want to reveal you guys to the public so early.”

Even if I want to reveal the truth, I'll have to wait for that b*stard Simon to return first. I want to see his

reaction to all this.
