Chapter 42

What's with the brutality? Wouldn't I end up harming Uncle Simon?

“What if he's a gem? Would you then be willing to acknowledge him?”

Troubled by the topic, Zayron waved his hand. “We'll see. I can't judge him until I meet him.”

Maxton nodded. “My aunt's coming-of-age ceremony will be held in one month. Hence, Uncle Simon will be returning from overseas to attend it. When the time comes, I'll introduce him to you.”

“Fine. Let me warn you. Do not say a word to Bailey about this. Do you understand?”

“Don't worry, my lips are sealed.”

Zayron was speechless.

If your lips were really sealed, I wouldn't have accused you of being an incompetent teammate.

The next day, Zayron went to the courier company and sent the blood sample Maxton had given him over to Kai.

Kai had informed him that he needed to wait one week for the results.

Zayron replied that there was no hurry. All that mattered was the accuracy of the test.

When he returned to the condominium, Bailey asked him, “I'm heading over to the Jefferson residence tonight. Do you want to come along?”

Giving her a mischievous look, Zayron sneered, “Aren't you worried I drive that horrible dad of yours mad?”

“I couldn't have wished for anything more,” Bailey quipped before returning to her bedroom.

Tilting his head, Zayron waved to Maxton who was sitting on the couch.

Skipping over, the latter asked with a smile, “You must have thought of a way to prank Rhonda, haven't you?”

Zayron simply rolled his eyes in response. This guy is a lost cause.
