Chapter 425

"Brother-in-law?"

No one seemed sure who blurted it out, but the moment Lyndon shot them a deadly glare, everyone instantly clammed up.

McNeil rolled the phrase around in his mind. Brother-in-law? Who's the sister in question? And what's up with this whole odd crowd?

"We came to see you, boss. How's my godson doing today? Was he good? Didn't kick too much, did he?"

"We brought a ton of toys, and some racing videos too. He can watch all the classics, so when he's born, we'll take him straight to the racetrack."

McNeil listened as they all called Victoria "boss," his eyes scanning the room in search of her.

"Who exactly are you people? And who invited you here?" he demanded, his face darkening.

Lyndon's lips curled in a mocking smile. "Does it matter who we are? What matters is that you're the ex-husband now, aren't you?"
