Chapter 14 Marry Isabella?

Greyson suddenly tripped in the doorway and almost fell to the ground.

He grabbed the door frame in time and gaped at Draxton as if the latter were a ghost.

Besides Greyson, Ricky and Isabella opened their eyes wide too.

Ricky gawked at Draxton with clear eyes and looked like a small frightened animal.

Draxton found Ricky in a daze even cuter.

He thought that Ricky would call him Dad with alacrity.

However, the next second, Ricky pressed his lips together and ran toward Isabella with a grave face.

He burrowed his face into Isabella’s chest, and when Draxton looked over his shoulder, he only saw Ricky’s curly hair.

Draxton raised an eyebrow and thought Ricky was just shy.

Isabella wrapped her arms around Ricky, and her wary and confused gaze landed on Draxton. “What on earth. is he up to?

“He spent five years hunting us down, but when we finally meet, he behaves so weirdly. Is he pulling my leg?” she wondered.

Draxton knew what he had done might be too much for them. But, to be honest, he couldn’t understand himself very well either.

Perhaps he was doing so because when he first saw Isabella and Ricky at the airport, he had found them very pleasing to the eye.

Therefore, when he realized that they were a part of his life that he couldn’t ignore, he couldn’t help but want to own them.

“I’ll take my leave and come back to see you tomorrow. Have a good rest.”

Draxton decided to give them some time to accept him.

His presence there only meant more pressure on them.

Draxton walked out.

Dumbfounded, Greyson was still where he had been and couldn’t come back to his senses until a long while

later.
