Maxton's mouth watered, staring at the delicious spicy meat Bailey prepared.

It looks good. I'm famished.

He gazed at the food longingly and informed timidly, “Daddy has starved me for two days...”

Words eluded Bailey.

I thought he was from the Luther family. There's no way Artemis would let him go hungry. I didn't know they were broke.

“Mommy, I'm hungry...” Maxton continued pleading.

Bailey rolled her eyes at that boy. Why does he keep calling me “Mommy”? Don't tell me he's thinking about staying for long and asking to be my son. Please don't do that to me, boy. These two rascals at home are already enough to drive me crazy. I can't take another spoiled brat.

“Wow, Bailey, did you get together with another old man? Since when did you have another son of my age?” Zayron chimed in.

Bailey took off her indoor slipper and threw it at Zayron when she heard that.

“Get out of my sight.”

Zayron flashed a cheeky smile and walked toward Maxton before eyeing him from head to toe. “Aren't you Maxton Luther? You're worth hundreds of billions. What are you doing here? Who in the right mind would trade the Luther residence for a tiny house?”

“Enough, Zayron Jefferson,” Bailey interrupted harshly. “Can't you see he's dehydrated? Get him some water. He must be parched. I can't let him die in our house. We'll be held accountable for that.”

Zayron wanted to talk back, but his mischievous gaze darted around, and he stated, “Great timing. I need you to play an act with me.”

After getting some soup from the kitchen, Bailey sat down beside Maxton to check if the boy was fine.

Hm. He really looks a lot like Artemis. He doesn't take after Rhonda, though. To be honest, I feel like I've seen him somewhere before.

Bailey urged, but Maxton puffed his mouth and shook
