Chapter 348
“What was that? Kevin didn’t catch what Everett said.
“Nothing Just get some rest.”
After hanging up the phone, Everett felt like his mind had flung itself into turmoil. He definitely couldn’t sleep now
He thought about returning to Eldoria Cily as soon as possible the next day to see if this was all a coincidence or something else.
Jeffrey was quite obedient. When Everett asked him to bring the kid to a hotel, he did so
He glanced at the small figure walking beside him and patied the kid’s forehead. “So Everett really is your dad, huh?”
Langston locked up at him as his eyes blinked. ‘I don’t know. All I know is that I look a lot like him.”
“And what about your mom? What’s her name?”
Langston thought for a moment, then shook his head. “I don’t know”
“And her sumame?
“I don’t know that either.”
Jeffrey had hoped to get some information out of the child, but it seemed like the kid knew very little.
“You must know what your mom looks like, right? He asked curiously, eager to know who else besides Dornthy could have
shared a bed with Everest. He realized he didn’t know Everett as well as he thought he did.
But it was understandable. After being single for so many years, he thought Everett having some physical needs was normal. As
a man, he undersicod.
“My mom is really beautifu
“I don’t doubt that Any woman that Everett was interested in would definitely be attractive.
After all, with his social status, could he not have 5 pick of any woman, with any figure or face? Even Jeffrey was picky so
Everett
must have been worse.
“Do you know my mom? Langston looked up at him.
Jeffrey shook his head. “How could I? If I did, wouldn’t you be the little prince of the Lopez Corporation by now?”
“I don’t want to be a prince, I just want to know who my dearthest dad is!”
“Deadbeat Dad?” That was a new way to describe Everett. “Did he abandon your mom?”
“Yes!” Langston nodded hard as his face filled with anger. “Otherwise, why wouldn’t he come to see me and Mom? I haven’t
even met him yet!
Jeffrey thought for a moment, then nodded, “Indeed, from your perspective, he would be a Deadbeat dad. But, kid, when I called
him earlier, he clearly had no idea you existed. Could 1 be that your mom never told him about you? That’s why he didn’t come
to see you As a good friend, Jeffrey felt obliged to defend Fverett, His own son shouldn’t harnor resentment towards him.
“Why wouldn’t my mom tell him? Isn’t it because he wasn’t good to her?”
“Hey!” Jeffrey was left speechless. “You make a good point, kid. I like it?”
Jeffrey could guess the story behind this
–
It was probably a fleeting romance; the woman realized she was pregnant but was afraid Everett wouldn’t want the child, so she
secretly gave birth.
It must have all been about money,
–If the word knew her place, she would understand she was not qualified to step into the Lopez family. And if she thought she
could
rise in status because of her child, the consequences could be ugly.
“Sir, are you going to take me to meet him?”
“You’ll meet him tomorrow. He’s not in Eldoma City today. He’s gone to chase his first love”
After hearing this, Langston’s little eyebrows immediately funowed.
