Clayton hung up the phone and looked at his assistant.
The assistant said, "It's Mrs. Sloan.”
It was Quavon’s legal wife, a woman of noble birth with a strong family background.
From the moment Clayton entered the Sloan family, h e was forced to accept the cold eyes of the Sloan family.
However, Clayton had only seen Mrs. Sloan a few times. That woman lived in her own home most of the time, and her marriage with Quavon was only an exchange of interests. There were no personal feelings involved.
After Mrs. Sloan gave birth to Liam, she finished her task and never stepped foot in the Sloan family again.
She had no disgust, persecution, resentment, or liking for Clayton. She was just indifferent. She was indifferent to everyone in the Sloan family.
Usually, in instances where children were born out of wedlock, the wife in the affluent family would either give the illegitimate children a sum of money to send them off or send the illegitimate child to a remote place.
Very few people could allow an illegitimate child to live in their main residence. That was because no
woman could tolerate the existence of illegitimate children.
An illegitimate son like Clayton was considered a humiliation and threat to Mrs. Sloan.
However, she did not care in the least.
They only met a few times.
The first time they met was when Clayton joined the family.
The second time they met was when Liam died.
That was all Clayton remembered.
Seeing that Clayton was frozen in thought, the assistant cleared his throat and spoke up from the side.
"Mr. Sloan, will you meet her?"
Clayton pursed his lips. "Yes, invite her in."
Not long after, a woman wearing an expensive dress from an unknown brand walked in. Her demeanor was elegant through and through.
She looked the same as she did back then. Her face had not changed at all, despite nearing her fifties.
