:

Zera thought, When I first returned to the country, Tyrone treated me with care and attention.

So why is he so distant now?

Could it be, as Aella said, that he’s bowing to Edwin’s pressure and keeping me at arm’s length on purpose?

Even so, it doesn’t really matter.

After today, my son will be Aella’s godson.

From now on, anywhere, Orson can openly call Tyrone “Daddy.”

Over time, my relationship with Tyrone would be completely public.

“I’m going out for a smoke too,”

Brad gave Aella a look, set down his fork, and left the dining room.

On the living room balcony, Brad casually walked up behind Tyrone. “So, how does it feel having your wife and mistress getting along? Pretty sweet, huh?”

Tyrone leaned both elbows on the railing, body slightly forward.

He held a cigarette between his fingers, staring off into the distance.

He glanced at Brad but didn’t say a word.

Tyrone refused to respond, but Brad wasn’t done.

He lit his own cigarette and stood next to Tyrone. “I didn’t expect Aella to carry herself like a proper matriarch. You really hit the jackpot.”

Tyrone muttered, “She’s gone mad.”

Brad shrugged. “If she’s mad, that’s on you.”

Tyrone closed his tired eyes and drew several deep breaths.

Finally, in a low, slow voice, he said, “This isn’t the outcome I wanted.”

Brad turned to face him. “Tyrone, whether you admit it or not, Aella doesn’t love you anymore.”

Tyrone stayed silent, so Brad continued, “You destroyed the confident, radiant Ms. Reid. You destroyed the Aella who gave herself to you completely.”

Tyrone stood stiffly, expressionless, his back rigid.

He stared straight ahead without moving, though the cigarette in his hand trembled slightly.

He stayed quiet for a long moment, then struggled out, “Our lives are too tangled up. She can’t just let it go because she says so.”

He remembered how much Zera had sacrificed for him. He had accepted Orson and hidden the boy’s true identity.

Hearing familiar footsteps, Tyrone turned.

He met Aella’s smiling eyes and forced a small smile. “Is everyone gone?”

Aella complained, “They only came this once. You could at least spend some time with the kid. Is that too much to ask of a dad?”

Tyrone felt a heavy weight in his chest.

He grabbed Aella’s hands and pulled her close. “Aella, can we talk calmly, please?”

Aella lowered her gaze and nodded.

They stood side by side on the balcony, Aella staring into the night.

Tyrone watched her.

After a quiet pause, he spoke.

“Aella, I know you’ve lost trust in me, but I need to tell you something again.”

Aella made a soft hum and looked calm. “Go ahead.”

Tyrone said, “Zera is my past, and the kid was an accident. If you really can’t accept them, I’ll find a way to send them away.”

Aella quietly turned from looking out and faced Tyrone.
