Chapter 158
Xavier's voice wasn't loud, but it could still be heard clearly.
Daisy was stunned and was at a loss. She looked at Xavier in disbelief. "What did you say?"|
Xavier looked up and said again, "Now that you want a grandson, I'll give you one."
"Xavier!" Daisy was furious. "What's wrong with you? Are you trying to deceive me again? When did
you have a son?"
Daisy thought he had another reason.
"I didn't lie to you."
Xavier's eyes were so calm and deep that it was hard to figure out his thoughts.
Daisy's eyes widened. "Are… Are you serious?"
"Yes," he replied resolutely.
Daisy still couldn't believe it. 'Where did the child come from?'
Xavier knew Daisy's doubts. He took out the paternity test report that Edward had given him and
handed it to her. "Take a look."
Daisy was in a daze for a moment. She ignored the top of the report and stared at the bottom.
Although she did not have medical knowledge, she understood what the result meant.
Daisy was so shocked that her body was shaking. "What happened on earth?"
Xavier sat back in his chair and rubbed his eyebrows as if he was unwilling to say it.
Daisy stared at him and asked tentatively, "What did you do?"
Daisy thought that his son was not a person with a messy private life.
"Bring the woman home first. Get married if you match each other. Where is the child now? Show me."
Daisy still felt strange. "I can't just believe what you said. Bring the child here. I'll get someone to do the
test."
Suddenly, Xavier looked up. "Do you want to check?"
His voice was very soft and calm.
But Daisy knew that this was a sign of his unhappiness.
Xavier laughed in anger.
Daisy didn't dare to say anything more. She didn't know what he was going to do. She would look into
this thing herself.
But she couldn't let Xavier find out what she was thinking.
She pretended to be calm. "Bring the child back as soon as possible."
Then she turned around and left.
When Jacob saw Edward leaving, he carried Ryan up, only to see Daisy coming out of the office. He
quickly hid.
'Why is she here?'
He didn't know if Xavier had told it to Daisy, so he didn't dare to let Ryan appear in front of Daisy.
After Daisy left, Jacob carried Ryan into the office.
Xavier was smoking and his face was covered in smoke.
Jacob put Ryan down, patted him on the shoulder, and then left the office.
Xavier asked Ryan to come over.
Ryan walked towards him. Xavier pressed the cigarette into the ashtray and let Ryan sit on his lap.
He rubbed Ryan's hair and asked, "In a few days, I'll take you a place. Do you want to go?"
Ryan blinked and asked, "Where is it?"
"A place with grandparents…"
Now that their bone marrows didn't match, he had to ask his family to do a test. But the precondition
was that he had to confess Ryan's identity.
So, he tried to talk to Ryan first and let Ryan know that. At least Ryan could be prepared for it.
Ryan tilted his head and asked, "Are they my biological grandparents?"
Xavier held him tightly in his arms and said, "Yes."
He looked forward to it, but was afraid at the same time. He was afraid that they wouldn't like him very
much.
"But… Will they like me?"
Ryan hugged Xavier's neck nervously. "Can't I wait for Mom only with you?"
Xavier's hand trembled slightly. 'Will she come back?'
It had been so long. The sea was such a dangerous place, so the chance of her survival was really
slim.
Even if he didn't believe it, the fear in his heart only increased. This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.
"Your grandparents will like you very much. Let's wait for your mom with them."
Fortunately, Ryan was around him at this time. Otherwise, he didn't know how to pull through the rest of
his life.
Ryan looked up at Xavier. Looking at his sad face, Ryan wanted to comfort him. "Dad…"
"Hmm?"
Ryan's voice was low. Xavier didn't hear him clearly.
Ryan was not used to it. He shook his head, buried his face in Xavier's arms and said, "I miss mommy."
Xavier's Adam's apple was rolling up and down, and his voice was low and hoarse. "I miss her too…"
"Then where's mommy? Why isn't she back yet?" Ryan blinked and asked.
Xavier didn't know how to lie to him.
He took out his cell phone and played the voice message Arya left him.
"It's mommy's voice!" Ryan opened his eyes wide and said in surprise, "I want to talk to mommy and
ask when she'll be back."
"You can only listen. I have told you that she went far away so she couldn't call us. She asked me to
take good care of you…"
Xavier couldn't continue to say.
As soon as Ryan looked up, he saw the tears in Xavier's eyes.
He then didn't ask anything more.
"Then I'll go there with you."
Ryan didn't want to see him sad.
He had to protect his father when Mom was not around. When she came back, he would tell her that he
had found his father.
At the door, Jacob didn't close the door, so he could see what happened inside through the crack.
He knew that Xavier was afraid of hearing bad news, so he didn't go looking for her. He was afraid that
if he really found the body, he wouldn't even have the fantasy.
But if this continued, wouldn't Xavier be mentally ill?
He was getting more and more irritable and sometimes forgot what he said. He had never done this
before.
Jacob didn't know whether he should go look for her. It was suffering to wait…
But what should he say if there was bad news?
