Chapter 26

The sweet voice of a young boy abruptly sounded, startling her.

Bailey almost had a headache when she saw Maxton, who was squatting at her door.

D*mn it. Why is the father and son duo everywhere? They keep taking turns to appear before me!

“Mommy...”

Bailey held her forehead and heaved a sigh. “Maxton, can you please leave me alone on account of me saving your life once? I kindly took you in for a few days and was almost sent to jail by your parents, which, come to think of it, is quite frustrating. Just look around you. My place is too small for you.”

The young boy stood up and looked at her piteously. He said in a meek voice, “It was my fault that the woman managed to take advantage of the situation. But don't worry. I've already taught her a lesson.”

The woman?

Bailey narrowed her eyes and frowned. “Do you know who poisoned you guys?”

Maxton bobbed his head fervently and replied in a serious manner, “Yes. That woman is cruel. She has been looking for an opportunity to murder me. The method she used this time enabled her to get rid of me and frame you at the same time, which is killing two birds with one stone. She's evil.”

Bailey was quite shocked. After staring at him for a while, she asked solemnly, “She's your mother, right? Why does she want to murder you?”

Maxton became emotional all of a sudden and raised his voice abruptly. “She's not my mother. Stop saying she's my mother.”

Bailey didn't know how to respond to that.

Rhonda isn't his mother? That doesn't sound right!

However, as she mulled it over, she felt that there was indeed something strange about the whole situation.

Logically speaking, Maxton should have been Rhonda's cash cow, because her position in the Luther family depends entirely on her son. Despite so, she tried to kill him by poisoning him. It's obvious that she doesn't want him alive. There's obviously something wrong.

“Why did you say that she's not your mother? She was the one who took you to the Luther family in the very beginning. If you're not her son, then why were you in her hands?”

Maxton pouted and said, “Maybe I was kidnapped.”

Bailey fell quiet.
