Sonnet did not mind that Maxwell acted like a child. On the contrary, his childlike nature made him get along well with her own children.She also did not mind that having him around would invite ridicule from others. Over the past few years, she had endured too much ridicule and contempt. Those years were now behind her, and she would not take this slight to heart.Love was like water. One knew best whether they liked warmth or coldness.What she wanted was this pure cup of water!“Maxwell, um, can I take you to meet someone later?”Maxwell had been grinning foolishly, but his smile froze when he heard this.His heart began to race wildly.Maxwell had an inkling who she was going to take him to meet.A joy that rose from deep within filled his heart as if all the buds in his heart had bloomed in an instant.His wife was going to take him to meet his father-in-law! What did this mean? It meant that even if he was a fool, she had accepted him!Was this not what he wanted?R
Hayden shrugged. “Looks like I’m not the person you were hoping to see!”Maxwell frowned. “Why are you here?”“Don’t worry, I checked the surveillance before coming here. She’s still in her father’s hospital ward and won’t be coming down anytime soon,” Hayden said, seeing through his thoughts with a smile.“What’s up?”“I wanted to talk to you about the bone marrow matching. So far, we haven’t found a match, and this is the bill.” Hayden handed Maxwell a piece of paper. “It’s been quite costly. Do you want to continue?”Maxwell just glanced at the bill and said, “Continue it.”Hayden hesitated.“Spit it out!” Maxwell frowned and spoke to Hayden harshly.“I’ll say it again, the best way is still to find the child’s biological father or relatives. If that doesn’t work, then we can try something else. The chances of bone marrow matching between strangers are small. You can’t delay the child’s treatment just because you don’t want to find that man,” Hayden said.Maxwell did not re
The police asked, “Why did you go to that underground casino?”“I was looking for someone named Quad Lawson.”“What’s your relationship with him?” the police asked again.Sonnet looked at Maxwell and said, “I know his parents. They said they lost touch with Quad, so I helped them look for him…”Maxwell had a silly smile on his face, but there was a glint in his eyes. Who was Quad Lawson?Sonnet stayed with Maxwell and her father in the hospital all night, going up and down.The next morning, the doctor saw that Maxwell’s wounds were in good condition, so he was discharged from the hospital.Sonnet took Maxwell home and rushed to the mansion to take care of Shay.In the afternoon, after kindergarten was over, Jaybie brought Lune to the Brooks household to visit Maxwell.“I heard you were very brave yesterday and saved Miss Turner. You’re amazing!” Jaybie gave Maxwell a thumbs up.Maxwell chuckled. “Of course, a man has to protect his wife!”“Uncle, you’re such a good husband!
Sonnet learned about Quad’s situation from Old Lady Lawson.Just before she got off work, Old Lady Lawson called her and said, “The police called my son and daughter-in-law. That little brat stole things from the supermarket and was taken to the police station. He had no choice but to call his parents to rescue him.”“Which police station is he in?” Sonnet asked hastily.“The police station on Helio Road,” Old Lady Lawson replied.Sonnet hung up the phone and hurried to the police station on Helio Road. When she arrived, she saw Quad coming out, led by Sole and his wife.Sonnet’s heart started beating faster at the sight of Quad.It was because he looked so much like Tre, whom she had seen in a photo. They were identical twins, and if Tre was the biological father of the children, the chances of a successful match with his twin brother would be much higher...She approached Quad and called out to him, “Quad!”Quad looked up at her and seemed confused, asking, “Who are you?”So
Quad Lawson again!Previously, Sonnet had gone to great lengths to find Quad, even venturing into an underground casino. This showed that Quad’s identity was not simple.After some thought, he dialed a phone number. “Nick, help me look into Quad Lawson…”Meanwhile, Sonnet also received the matching results from Westfield Hospital’s laboratory.The results showed a complete mismatch!Seeing this result, she was a bit disappointed.Jaybie would have to wait again!However, did Quad and the child not match solely because they did not have the same blood type or because they had no blood relationship at all?It seemed that this matter needed to be clarified. If he had a blood relationship with the child, there was still hope.The members of the Lawson family could also do the matching test. Perhaps there might be a chance of a match.The next day, Sonnet went to the hospital where Old Lady Lawson was staying again.Sole, his wife, and Quad were all in the ward accompanying Old L
“Quad Lawson, 25 years old. His father is named Sole Lawson, and his mother is Dilys Watson. He also has a twin brother named Tre Lawson who died four years ago in a fight.“Quad used to work at an electronics factory but was fired because he owed usury from gambling. Now he’s unemployed and has a debt worth 50 grand.“He was born and raised in Harbor City and lived with his parents in North City for a few months before going to work at the electronics factory in Harbor City. He has never been to United County.”Maxwell looked at the words on his computer and stroked his chin.This gambler seemed to have zero connection with Sonnet. He probably was not the biological father of the children, right?He frowned as he looked at the face on the e-mail. This disgusting man. Just thinking of the possibility that he had touched his woman before, Maxwell wanted to tear him apart!“You’re back… Young Miss…” Mrs. Wilson’s voice echoed from downstairs.Maxwell was startled and quickly tur
Maxwell went to the closet, and Sonnet quietly opened her eyes. She saw him wrapped in a white towel and opening the drawer to find his underwear.Thinking Sonnet was asleep, he found his underwear and directly put it on after removing the towel.Sonnet’s eyes widened, and then her face turned purple with embarrassment. She quickly closed her eyes again.After a while, she felt Maxwell come to the side of the bed. Her heart was still racing. She dared not move, afraid he would notice she was pretending to sleep, which would be even more embarrassing.He pulled the covers off her, and then put on a new blanket. Then, the bed sank down on his side, indicating he had gotten on the bed. Sonnet could feel her head being lifted gently and placed back on his arm.She did not want him to feel uncomfortable and pretended to turn over.However, he stubbornly moved closer and positioned her head on his arm as a pillow.Sonnet was considering whether to pretend to wake up or not when sudd
Sonnet looked at the report and saw that the results indicated that the two samples provided by Jay Turner and Quad Lawson showed that they were not genetically related.Quad and Tre had the same DNA, so even if the test did not prove a parent-child relationship, it would have at least shown some degree of kinship. Since it did not, it was confirmed that Tre was not the biological father of the two children.Sonnet felt a bit upset about this. Another hope for Jaybie’s bone marrow transplant had been completely shattered! She had mentally prepared herself to accept it even if their biological father was a thug like Tre.However, now...She tried to suppress her disappointment and started thinking again.If Tre was eliminated, there was only one person left—Kenji—as Leonard had mentioned.Was Kenji the biological father of the two children? It was said that Kenji disappeared after the brawl, and finding him would be like finding a needle in a haystack!Sonnet felt a bit cold,
