Both Xavier and Lilith instantly froze, a chilling wave of suspicion washing over them.
They had no idea what was inside the box, but they knew with terrifying certainty that it had everything to do with Summer's explosive claim about his Severe Oligospermia!
Yet, Xavier still found the idea utterly ridiculous. How could he possibly be virtually infertile?!
If he was, then how did Leo come into existence?!
Xavier grew even more convinced that this was simply Summer’s psychotic way of getting revenge.
Deliberately choosing a grand event like his twins' banquet to publicly humiliate him!
But standing beside him, Lilith didn't share his blind confidence.
Because Xavier didn't know that during her years in the US, Lilith had kept another man on the side.
A sudden, icy panic gripped her chest.
Her body began to tremble uncontrollably.
After a stunt like this, the Sterling family would absolutely demand a paternity test.
If... if those babies really weren't Xavier's, what was she going to do?
Assuming Lilith was simply shaking from anger, Xavier’s resentment toward Summer skyrocketed. His gaze turned predatory, the air around him dropping to a suffocating chill.
He raised a hand, signaling the guards. "Throw her out! And call the cops!"
"Hold on!" Xander wheeled himself forward, positioning Leo right beside Summer.
"Xander!" Xavier growled, refusing to back down this time.
This was about his pride and the entire Sterling family’s reputation.
If he let Summer walk all over him without consequence, the Sterlings would become the laughingstock of Empire City’s elite.
He and his sons would be nothing more than cheap gossip.
He would never let Summer get away with this!
He was going to throw her in a jail cell and teach her a permanent lesson!
Xavier’s voice was like ice. "Stay out of this, Xander!"
Xander opened his mouth to reply, but Summer cut him off. "Go ahead. Call the police."
Before anyone could react, Summer pulled out her phone and dialed the authorities herself, right in front of the stunned crowd.
She smiled brightly. "I saved you the trouble. You’re welcome."
