Chapter 35

His words were indeed a slap in the face for Clarence. The latter refuted, “No! That's not true! My dearest grandson, I'm your granddad, the biological one!”

Zayron pursed his lips before he looked up at Gwendolyn piteously. “Grandma, he disowned my mommy when she was pregnant with me. Is it all right if I don't acknowledge such a scumbag as my granddad?”

The way Zayron addressed Gwendolyn really melted her heart.

“Zayron, the decision lies in your hands. Nobody can force you into doing anything,” she reassured him gently.

Zayron blinked as a sly look glinted in his eyes. “I don't feel like seeing them now. Grandma, could you please get someone to chase them out?”

There was a drastic change in Gwendolyn's countenance. It was as though a sunny day had turned cloudy in the blink of an eye.

Shooting daggers at the threesome from the Jefferson family, she pointed at the door and stated indifferently, “Since my grandson doesn't welcome all of you, you'd better leave now. Heed my words, and don't get on his nerves. Otherwise, it'll be too late for you to cry over spilled milk later.”

Wearing a look of sheer embarrassment, Clarence was bereft of speech.

It never crossed their minds that things would turn the other way around. Unexpectedly, they became the ones burying their faces in their hands in utter embarrassment.

“Max, come with me to the Jefferson residence, okay?” At her wit's end, Rhonda could only step forward to embrace Maxton. She could not and would not allow him to stay by Bailey's side.

Maxton snorted without struggling before he drew closer and whispered near her ear, “Let go of me now. If not, you only have yourself to blame when I force you into taking a paternity test.”
