Chapter 452 Ken's Nightmare

Ken glanced at Connor without a word and headed to the kitchen.

He had been here before, staying with the Lockharts while attending the nearby university. The kitchen, though renovated, remained essentially unchanged.

This place had aged over time. But back when Ken lived here, it was a brand- new home.

Ken was an orphan. Despite Wade's sponsorship, he always knew his place as just an orphan. The Lockharts were benefactors, and he was forever grateful, fully aware of his position.

Gary, on the other hand, was born into privilege. Whatever he desired was within easy reach.

For instance, this villa was bought at an auction years ago for over a billion dollars. Gary bought it without a second thought because he had the security of his family's wealth.

But Ken? All he had was self-doubt and careful effort...

"Smells good." Faye and Connor, looking after Leo, who were-looking after Leo, beamed at the delicious aroma wafting from the kitchen.

Since arriving at Gary's, the best thing Faye and Connor had eaten was instant noodles. Thankfully, Leo had formula and baby food, with a nanny making sure he was well-fed.

"Ken, can I sneak a bite?" Connor peeked cautiously into the kitchen as Ken placed the ribs on a plate.

Ken smiled and put a few pieces on a small dish. "Share with Faye and Leo. Wash your hands first; we'll eat

soon."

Connor was almost drooling with gratitude. Gary certainly couldn't make food this good.

Observing the children's excitement, Gary grudgingly sat on the couch, grabbing a cookbook to study. It wasn't that he couldn't cook; he just didn't have the time...

Given the current cautious circumstances, even the longtime housekeeper turned out to be Patrick's spy, making Gary too paranoid to hire a new cook.

The nanny was the only one he could trust because she was assigned by the army.
