Chapter 1483

Adrian sat up, scratching his temple in confusion. “Dad… what are you talking about? I don’t quite understand.”

The man sternly responded, “You’re not my son.”

Adrian was taken aback. The guilt on his face was impossible to hide. He grimaced and, after a while, confessed. “Okay, I admit… I’m not your son, Tristan.”

Marcus, seeing the honesty in the boy, raised an eyebrow. “Why are you pretending to be my son and coming home with me? Did someone instruct you to do this? What’s your objective?”

Adrian quickly shook his head, raising his hands in a plea of innocence. “No, not at all! I don’t have any ulterior motives! I just thought you were handsome and that you have a fatherly vibe. I’ve never had a father growing up, so I wanted to see what it feels like.”

Marcus looked at the boy’s sincere and pitiful expression, feeling an indescribable tug at his heart.
