Chapter 341 Why Did he Never Learn?
Maybe it’s time to confess that Austin is not the son of Maddox to them, Antonio and Elijah.
Bert Johnson had always wanted to kick Austin out of KLOC. But his background and professional ability are unquestionable. Bert as his uncle had no choice but to quit this thought.
Grace reached out to Bert last night. Soon Bert will take action and the news will spread around J City.
On the way to the meeting place, Elijah said with a sigh, “With his girlfriend, Austin is putting us behind his brain.”
Antonio was driving next to him and threw him a glance, saying, “Just you, not me.”
Antonio paused for a short while, “Maybe we should call Tate and let him come too.”
Elijah was a bit confused, objecting, “No need to call him. I spoke to him on the phone this morning. He said he was in the middle of class and wanted us to stay away from him.”
Antonio thought that if he didn’t say this clearly, Elijah would not figure it out until Austin explained.
He compressed his lips and said, “Austin suddenly changed the plan. He must have something to announce”
They are really not that into mahjong, It’s just that they are more comfortable discussing something while playing mahjong. Less serious and more casual.
Plus, four adults sitting in the room doing nothing but chatting every time they meet each other, is bizarre.
“I thought it was Suny’s idea.”
Antonio was amused by his stupidity, “Then why do you think she changed her mind?”
“For me?”
Clearly, Elijah himself didn’t believe it.
He recalled the glance Suny threw to Austin after saying this. At that time he thought Suny was just showing off.”
But now it doesn’t seem like this.
Elijah now understood and said, “I’ll call Tate.”
Antonio nod and stepped on the accelerator when the traffic light was green.
At the first turn of the mahjong, Tate arrived. He entered and sat behind Elijah, saying, “Haven’t seen you for a while. Suny.”
Suny smiled, “It has been a while.”
Tate agreed and noticed the empty chair nearby, asking, “Austin, you just stand there watching?”
Austin sitting next to Suny, answered, “The seat is saved for you.”
Tate grinned, “You two together against me? I am bound to lose.”
Elijah disagreed, “Tate, which side you are on? Have confidence in the opponent instead of yourself. You may lose but I won’t.”
Tate sneered, “Don’t cry about it.”
They gathered today, not for entertainment but it was not bad to win some money.
Suny had a very good memory, and so did Austin. So they could work out what tiles Elijah and Tate had and how they were going to play.
At the first turn, Suny won by self-draw. Elijah didn’t concede, “Games have just started.”
Suny glanced at Austin and smiled without saying anything.
In the second turn, while the machine was shuffling, Austin said with indifference, “Have you heard anything about Kasper?”
Elijah replied, “I knew that he had a car accident and hit someone who appears to be the senior executive of the subsidiary company of KLOC. What, you are going to rescue him out?”
Antonio and Tate didn’t say a word, but they all stared at Austin, waiting for him to state his attitude.
Austin shook his head. “No. But Grace reached out to me after Kasper’s accidents. She took out three paternity test result reports, between me and her, me and Kasper, as well as me and Maddox which she did earlier on.
Speaking of this, Austin paused for a moment, and said, “None of the three reposts indicates that I am highly genetically related to them.”
Elijah gasped, “Wait. What does that mean? You are not the son of Maddox. You don’t belong to that family?”
Austin threw him a glance, “Yes.”
Both Antonio and Tate frowned. Tate compressed his lips and said, “Your father has passed away. Those papers didn’t prove that you are not the biological son of Maddox.”
Antonio nodded, “I agree. It’s known in the J City years ago she abandoned you when you’ve just been born and ran away with someone. The fact you are not her biological son is not unimaginable. Besides, it has been ten years since your father died. The paternity test result reports she claimed, can fool no one except herself.”
Austin replied, “That is not my concern. I bring this up because Grace has met with Bert last night.”
Elijah is indignant about this, saying, “This woman is working with Bert to kick you out?”
Austin didn’t appear to be as furious as he should be in a normal situation. And there was always a light smile on Suny’s face.
This big news gave them a great shock.
Suny picked up the dice and smiled faintly, “It might be difficult to verify Austin’s biological relations with Maddox. But to expose that Kasper and Tina are not biologically related to Maddox is rather easy.”
Austin added, “Recently I have looked into a man who had a connection with Grace at that time. Very soon I will find out. Today I just want to inform you guys about this beforehand.”
This is pretty serious stuff. For the sake of their years of comradeship, they are entitled to know this even if it’s found that he is not the son of Maddox.
Antonio nodded and said, “I see. And I will have someone to help in finding these people.”
“Thanks.”
Antonio grinned, “Don’t say it.”
Elijah thought for a while, “I may not be much helpful. But to find a person is my field.
Austin gave him a look and didn’t sneer at it, which was rarely. “That would be great.”
Astonishing as they were, they continued to play mahjong after having a discussion about it. All of them were from wealthy backgrounds, they wouldn’t make a fuss of it.
After losing three turns in a row, Elijah still had the impression that Suny and Austin won out of luck and that he would win in the next turn.
Over one hour passed after Suny won for the fifth time, and Elijah lost all his money.
Suny threw a glance at Austin with her head a little sideways, and smiled, “Mr. Brooks, you still want to continue?”
They wanted to go to the gym if Mr. Brooks gave in.
Now it’s after three o’clock. They can still make it for dinner after practicing boxing for an hour.Copyright by Nôv/elDrama.Org.
This plan is perfect.
Elijah felt like he’d had enough humiliation today. “Nope!”
Why did he never learn?
He can’t even defeat Austin, not to mention Austin and Suny together against him.
He really should keep away from these two people with an incredible memory.
They separated at the club. Suny and Austin went straight to the gym.
Elijah was about to join them. Austin gave him a look. Elijah immediately thought of the days when he always got beaten by Austin. He gave up that idea.
Austin and Suny haven’t been to the gym for half a month. Suny got tired after half an hour or so.
But Austin was still full of energy and didn’t even pant.
Suny called his name, “Austin.”
And then she jumped to his back. Austin immediately caught her and now Suny was on his back.
She looked at his eyes and grinned, kissing him on the cheek.
