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,
If he offered any less, he would be killed by that guy Maxwell.Three grand was actually quite a lot for Sonnet, and she needed the money, so she readily agreed, “Okay, let’s do it. Three grand.”On weekends, she would come to work, and on normal workdays, she could find another job and earn double the salary.Perhaps it was not as much as the previous seven grand, but she still had to have a bottom line and not harm other people’s children just to earn more money for herself.Monday happened to be the end of the month, and she personally took Shay to the Intervention School. Shay did not have separation anxiety because he was familiar with the previous teachers and seemed to be adapting well.May tagged along as well. She looked 30% worried, 30% reluctant, and 40% anxious. She looked just like a mother on the first day of sending her child to kindergarten. “My, our Shay has finally grown up. I hope he’ll be better and better in the future,” she said, wiping away tears.Sonne
“Well, you know how I’m working as a private tutor for that family. As you know, their child is a bit special. Now, the other nanny resigned and they requested me to spend the nights there. They even offered to increase my salary a bit. So, I can’t stay at home anymore…”Sonnet told a lie.Myles nodded and looked at her with concern. “So, you have to be with that child all day? Won’t you get exhausted? I know it can be exhausting to take care of such a child!”Sonnet smiled. “It’s okay. I get along really well with that kid, and he listens to me. Plus, he’s good friends with Jaybie. When we’re free, I can bring him home with me.”Myles smiled proudly. “My daughter is smart and kind, so who wouldn’t love her?”After leaving the hospital, she went to see Jaybie at Harrison Estate. Lindy was off today, so Sonnet told her about renting a place for her father to live in.“Why doesn’t he just live in my place?” Lindy said while eating yogurt.“How can that do?”“Why not? Let your d
