Married a Secret Billionaire novel Chapter 761

The result was out, and the child was not related to Noah as expected.

Zephyr's hand shook a little as he clutched the piece of paper. Although he was mentally prepared, he could not help his rage when he saw the result with his own eyes.

Although Liam doted on him when he was younger, the Hamertons fought and schemed against each other, so he had not received much warmth from there.

It was on his maternal grandfather's side that shone a ray of light on his cold childhood. Zephyr especially could not forget his uncle's affection for him. He would carry him on his shoulders, give him horsey rides, and take him fighting with wooden swords.

He was young and did not know how to hold back, always hitting and bruising his uncle, but the latter had never blamed him, merely grinning at him without much care.

Each time he returned to Centrolis from Chaiseland, he would cry and bawl about not wanting to leave his Uncle Noah…

Now, however, Zephyr would break his uncle's bubble with his own hand.

He took a deep breath and bit his lips.

Cordelia stayed close to him. "Zephyr, what do we do next?"

"Like what we've agreed on," he replied seriously. "This farce should come to an end."

Ava was hiding in Chuck's apartment when she received Trinity's call.

It had been days since she went out, and what was weird was that the Bakers had not sent anyone after her. Even Hannah's hospitalization was found out through their family servant.

She had asked the servant not to disclose her whereabouts, but the servant answered weakly, "Miss, no one at home seems to be concerned."

Ava's heart dropped.

She was really redundant in the Bakers. For years, she did not manage to make her presence matter. Instead, others were disdainful toward her!

When thinking about that, resentment and grievance rushed into Ava.

She had to star in the movie and shoot to stardom! She wanted those who looked down on her to beg her on their knees!

"What's gotten into you?" Chuck came out lazily from the bathroom in a robe and saw Ava, distracted by the window.

She had been distracted in bed just now, making him lose interest and the mood that he could only end it hastily.

"You don't even know how to keep a man happy. All you know is being dazed here!" Chuck lit up a cigarette and plopped himself down on the couch. "You can't even compare to your mother!"

Ava turned back to look at him.

The man was vile and ugly. She was disgusted when she was with him, and it was already a favor to him that she could moan. What more did he want!?

However, Ava could only fume inwardly. She contemplated and went over to snuggle him, saying coyly, "Uncle Chuck, I haven't gone out for days and have been keeping you happy all day long… I'm just a little tired!"

Chuck snorted and pinched her chin. "So, you want to go out?"

"I…" Ava paused. "I want to act."

"Act what?" Chuck narrowed his eyes.

"Ms. Lulham's film! She called me again."

"Ms. Lulham? Trinity Lulham?" Chuck recalled that he had previously wanted to use her production to launder his money.

"Yeah! Ms. Lulham regards me highly and has been keeping the female lead role empty for me. She even asked me to attend the press release a week later!"

The more Chuck listened to it, the more he found it a trap.

How many awards had Trinity won, and what kind of award-winning actresses had she never met? Why would she have eyes on Ava, who was more like a wooden sculpture?
