“That’s fine. You can take your time. If not, you could always file the lawsuit two years from now. Mind if I ask what you do for a living?” Serena asked.

Tony gave a modest smile. “I’m a stylist.”

Well, that is about as professionally relevant as it gets.

Later that day, Serena went home and told Sebastian all the gossip she had picked up earlier. “Sebastian, your family drama could seriously be turned into a novel.”

Sebastian shot her a quiet look. “Honey, you and I are the family. That’s their story, not ours. Don’t mix it up.”

“Alright. Tomorrow, go get Trevor’s hair and run a paternity test. Once the result comes back, everything will be crystal clear.”

He nodded. “Okay.”

That night, the man was especially energetic.

By the time Serena was completely worn out, she heard him mutter softly behind her, “Honey, you wouldn’t cheat on me, right?”

Her whole body was slick with sweat. She reached back and smacked his hand lightly. “Depends on how you behave. Let go. I need a shower. I feel sticky.”

He traced the line of her shoulder blades and kissed her there, lingering for a moment. “Yes, honey. Don’t worry. I won’t give anyone the chance.”

Amber’s sudden move had clearly rubbed everyone the wrong way.

She bit her lip, realizing she might have overreacted. With an awkward laugh, she said, “Sebastian, that’s not what I meant. I just thought maybe you weren’t used to holding babies. Cubbie hasn’t been feeling well lately, so I’m trying not to let too many people carry him in case he catches something again.”

Sebastian narrowed his long eyes and let out a quiet scoff. “Oh, I see. So you think I’m the one carrying

germs.”

So cautious. What else could it be but feeling insecure?

He did not want to stir up her suspicions either. “Forget it. It’s not like I have to hold the kid. I only reached for him because he’s Trevor’s son. Otherwise, there are plenty of kids out there on the street. I’m not the type to pick up just any random child.”

Amber’s heart jolted hard when she heard that. For some reason, his words felt loaded with meaning. “Sebastian…”

Sebastian waved it off. “Dad, let’s go upstairs and talk.

His indifference hit her hard, like a punch straight to the chest.

She felt a sting of regret.
