Chapter 309: REUNION
Lexus felt as if all his life had been a big lie as he continued hearing Ramon's words.
Actually, Lexus didn't really listen to what Ramon said after learning the person named Leon Dawson was his father. That their mother had a relationship with the man and that he, Lexus, was their child.
It felt like listening to the outline of a cheap that made no sense with far-fetched twists.
It was unfathomable how Lexus's perception of his own family, Ramon and Lis, instantly changed, with just one sentence from Ramon.
The problem here with Lexus is; he always believed what Ramon said. Whatever that is. Ever since they were little, even when Ramon lied to him, Lexus still believed him.
Therefore, it was hard for him to start doubting what his brother said now. Not in the face of such a big secret.
Ramon rarely even joked about trivial matters, so there was no way his brother would start with such a big issue, especially when his pregnant wife had been kidnapped and her whereabouts were still unknown.
"Are you sure about what you said?" asked Lexus when Ramon asked if he was okay.
There's no way he'd be okay. Even now, Lexus felt his head spinning rapidly. He didn't even realize that they had already arrived at the building where Ramon was holding Leon.
"Do I look like I'm joking?" Had this not happened, then Ramon would not have wanted to be the first to break the news to Lexus, or if possible, this would not be a priority for Ramon.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtNot because he didn't care, but because nothing would change even if Ramon knew this. Lexus is still his little brother and nothing else will change that fact.
However, what was happening now, complicated things and Ramon resented the circumstances which made him the person to deliver this news to Lexus.
"I hope you're joking," Lexus said, his voice an incoherent mumble. "You know, when two siblings tease each other, the older brother will tease his younger brother by saying that he is an adopted son. Kids always joke like that…"
Lexus would babble on obscure things like that to hide his own feelings, because then he could think that the facts in front of his eyes were not very real.
But, Ramon pulled him back to the reality he had to face.
"We are not children." Ramon cut off Lexus's incoherent rambling with a firm sentence. "And I never used that as a joke to prank you."
"Yeah, because you've never bullied me like a big brother," Lexus muttered. He didn't even know what to say anymore or how to respond to all of this, because he was too confused about how to deal with all of this.
"We have to get down and you can meet him," said Ramon. He then got out of the car and because Lexus did not follow him, Ramon then walked to the other side of the car and opened the door for Lexus.
"This is the first time you've done this to me," Lexus muttered. He then got out of the car. "Is it because you feel bad for me, because I am the child from our mother and another man's affair?"
"Stop saying that," Ramon growled. "There's something else I want you to do," he said.
"Meeting the man," Lexus replied gloomily.
Then the two of them walked toward the building, in the basement of which Ramon kept Leon.
"You're not kidding about this, are you?" asked Lexus again, his head down and Ramon had never seen his younger brother look so unenthusiastic like now, he was used to seeing Lexus being careless and not really caring about his surroundings.
"You want a DNA test?" Ramon offered.
"Are you kidding me?" asked Lexus, raising his head and staring grimly at Ramon.
"You want me to joke now?" Ramon returned Lexus' gaze.
"No." Lexus then shook his head and looked in a direction other than Ramon's. "You'll look a lot worse than this if you force yourself to joke."
Then the two of them walked toward the elevator which led them to the basement of the building.
"What do you want me to do?" asked Lexus when the elevator doors opened again and they had arrived at the intended basement.
"I want you to find out where Leon has hidden Hailee," said Ramon. Leon wouldn't say anything to him, no matter how hard he tortured the man while Lis didn't know anything about Leon's involvement in this sinister plot.
Therefore, perhaps by presenting his biological son to him will help Ramon in getting the answer he wants.
"How… how do I do it?" asked Lexus. He felt very nervous. He still felt like he was in the clouds and was still trying to digest the reality in front of his eyes.

"Just a moment," Lexus said quickly, holding Ramon's hand which was about to open the door. "Let me think for a moment."
Ramon looked closely at Lexus, then saw the worry in his younger brother's eyes.
Lexus then shook his head, as if that way, he could get rid of his bad feelings and be able to accept the reality that was laid out in front of him more.
Unfortunately, the problem can't be solved that simply.
"Tell me, what should I do with all of this?" asked Lexus, he muttered while lowering his head, not daring to look at Ramon.
"I know this is hard for you," said Ramon. "But I need you to do this." Ramon really needed him and couldn't think of any other way to quickly get information about Hailee's whereabouts except by using Lexus.
"Give me two minutes," Lexus offered. "Two minutes for me to organize my thoughts."
Ramon then let go of the door handle he was holding and allowed Lexus to open the door himself. Even when the promised two minutes had passed, Lexus was still transfixed in his place, not moving at all.
"Are you sure mom has an illicit relationship with this man and I am the result of that affair?" Lexus still refused to look at Ramon, he only heard Ramon acknowledging his words softly. "He knew about this?" he asked again.
"Yes, he knows. But, he didn't know that you were aware of it now." Ramon then added. "I don't want to ruin the reunion between you and your biological father, but I need to know where my wife is."
Hearing Ramon's words, Lexus frowned. "Reunion my a**," he cursed, then opened the door.
