Chapter 35 Then Let Us See Your Son
This was Bethany's second time riding shotgun in Raymond's car. At this time, she still couldn't gather herself completely perhaps because she had inadvertently mentioned Adriel just now.
After getting in the car, Bethany kept looking out of the window, and Raymond glanced at her through the front mirror. Right now, her eyes were still full of grief, which made him feel touched. He thought that Adriel was very lucky to have Bethany who still missed him so much even after his death.
The car stopped, and Bethany came to her senses and looked out. The school looked grand, which made her feel guilty. She had also studied in a school like this in her childhood, while she could only afford an ordinary school for Tyrone and Shayla.
Discarding her unnecessary thoughts, she opened the door and got out of the car. She was now looking forward to seeing what Raymond's son looked like.
Did he resemble Tyrone a little, which was why Raymond had fantasized about Tyrone as his son?
"Are you sure your son studies here?" Bethany waited outside the school with Raymond. When the other students were taken away by their parents, they still did not see his son.
Bethany even doubted whether he was having paranoia again. Or did they come to the wrong school?
Raymond raised his hand and checked the time. There must be something wrong.
Therefore, he called Damion's teacher, but the latter replied, "Damion has been taken away by his grandfather. Didn't he tell you?"
Damion's grandfather? Karter?
"No, I got it now."
After hanging up, Raymond called Karter. Karter picked it up and said apologetically, "Ray, I forgot to tell you about taking Damion home. Sorry for making trouble for you. I'm getting old and forgetful. I thought of calling you in the first place, but it later slipped my mind."
"Never mind." Raymond asked with bewilderment, "Uncle Karter, why did you suddenly take Damion to your place?"
"I missed Damion. Both you and I live not far from the school, but you still let him live on campus. I feel sorry for him. Just let Damion stay with me this weekend."
Aria was likely to be in the Shepard family. If Damion was affected negatively again...
"Uncle Karter, I understand how you miss Damion, but you know about his illness. He's finally getting better during this period of time. I'm afraid if he sees Aria again..."
"Don't worry about that. Aria has gone to the crew, so she's not at home. It's just me and my wife. Trust me, we'll take good care of Damion."
After saying that, Karter handed the phone to Tyrone with a kind smile, "Come on, Damion, tell your daddy you are going to stay with us here."
When Tyrone saw this strange old man who came to pick him up earlier today, he was so confused. After knowing that he was Damion's grandfather, Tyrone had no choice but to leave with him.
Tyrone didn't know how the relationship between Damion and his grandfather was. As his grandfather treated him well, Tyrone dared not act too abruptly to arouse suspicion, so he said to Raymond, "Daddy, I'll stay with Grandpa. Don't worry, I will be good."
What Damion said took Raymond by surprise as the boy suddenly became so sensible.
"Since he said so, Ray, you don't have to worry, do you?" Karter asked.
"Yeah." As such, Ray could only utter, "Thank you for taking care of him, Uncle Karter."
Bethany also caught on to their conversation; Raymond's son had been taken away by Karter.
At the mention of Karter, Bethany remembered when he came to her. Now that he was on the phone call with Raymond, why didn't he expose her true identity?
She couldn't guess what was in Karter's mind. She and Raymond were not a real couple anyway, there was no need to explain too much to him who she really was.
"Get in the car!" Raymond gave her an order and took the lead to get in the car when Bethany was lost in thought.
"OK, Mommy will be home soon."
After putting down the phone, Shayla immediately ran to the window and caught sight of Bethany and Raymond who walked into the apartment complex together in the distance.
"Tyrone, Tyrone! Come and look, Beth has brought back that sc*mbag!"
Damion immediately went to the window and looked out. Seeing his father, he was scared witless.
How come his daddy came here?! If he was found by his daddy now, wouldn't he be given a hard time?
"Shayla, you mustn't say I'm at home, by no means!" Damion hurriedly hid in the wardrobe, but Shayla was very confused about his behavior.
"Tyrone, what are you doing? Why are you hiding?"
"I'll explain it to you later. Anyway, you must listen to me now. Don't let them know I'm at home. Understand?"
"Got it." Shayla didn't know why he did it, but she could only help him.
Hearing the knock on the door, Shayla hurried to open the door. Bethany and Raymond saw Shayla's cute face as soon as they entered the apartment.
"Beth, Uncle Raymond." Although she had identified him as a jerk last time, Shayla still greeted him out of courtesy.
"Where are Ainsley and Tyrone?" Bethany asked as she looked around but only saw Shayla.
"Oh, Ainsley went out to buy groceries, and Tyrone went out to play basketball." Shayla had to lie through her teeth.
Tyrone went out to play basketball? Why didn't she know that Tyrone could play basketball?
