Jennifer’s POV:
My room was near Linda’s.
I heard a strange noise, so I went out to check what was happening, only to find out that Linda had
only just come back.
What had she been doing out so late at night? Moreover, why did it look like she was sneaking in?
My intuition told me that something was wrong, so I secretly followed her.
Standing outside Linda’s room, I eavesdropped on the conversation between her and her son.
I heard Andy ask Linda how many fathers he had.
What did he mean? But what surprised me the most was not his question, but Linda’s response.
She immediately shushed Andy, as if she was afraid that someone would hear.
Was she trying to hide something? Werewolves had a heightened sense of smell.
I knew Linda would find out that I was outside her bedroom if I lingered here too long, so I hurried
back to my room.
After returning to my room, I couldn’t get the conversation I’d just heard out of my head.
Did it mean that my brother was not Andy’s biological father? But in that case, how could Linda dare
to go ahead with the paternity test? Or was I just jumping to wrong conclusions? Whatever it was, I
had a strong feeling that things were not as simple as they seemed.
After all, Linda had disappeared for many years.
Who knew what had happened during those years? For the time being, there was nothing I could do
except wait for the paternity test result to come out.
It was already two o’clock in the morning.
Anthony was still taking a shower in the bathroom.
Through the transparent glass door of the bathroom, I could see the water running over his naked
body, sending a jolt of electricity through me.
“Anthony, I want to join you.”
Stripping off my clothes, I walked into the bathroom and hugged him.
“How about we take a bath together?”
Looking at me with a smile of pleasant surprise, Anthony nodded.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAfter filling the bathtub with water, the two of us sank inside comfortably, facing each other.
I ran my hands through the warm water, and then leaned against his chest and twisted in his arms.
“Look how enthusiastic you are,”
Anthony teased, cupping my breasts and gently rubbing them.
“Jennifer, do you want to make love in the bathtub?”
The thought alone made heat rise within my body, and I couldn’t help but swing my waist, rubbing
my butt against his cock.
As I kept shifting on his lap, his cock stiffened, stabbing my thigh and evoking an involuntary moan
from my lips.
I gripped the edges of the bathtub with my hands and lifted my crotch slightly, letting it hover right
over his erect cock before sitting down.
“I have something to tell you.I saw that Linda only came back about half an hour ago.She was
acting weird, so I followed her.I heard her say something strange to Andy.The boy asked her how
many fathers he had, but she shushed him and told him to not talk nonsense.What do you think it
means?”
“Honey, do you suspect that Andy is not Jerome’s child? I don’t blame you, but let’s see the result of
the paternity test first.Anyway, be careful of Linda.Don’t trust her blindly,”
Anthony advised with a frown.
“Yeah, you’re right.I’m a little worried about my brother.I want to stay here at the Rainbow House for
a while longer.I’ll go back with you after the matter with Linda is settled, okay?”
I acted like a spoiled child in front of Anthony.
“Of course, honey.Whatever you say.”
Anthony planted a kiss on my forehead.
“Go to sleep.It’s getting late.”
“Anthony, you are so good to me.”
With a content smile, I drifted off to a peaceful sleep in his arms.
Skylar’s POV:
I had been waiting anxiously for three days.
Finally, the moment I was dreading arrived; the result of the paternity test was out.
Everyone gathered in the hall, waiting for Jerome to announce the result.
The expression on his face was unreadable as he put his hand inside the folder and took out the
report.
“The paternity test report came out.It turns out that Andy really is my son,”
Jerome said slowly, staring down at the report.
The words from his mouth left me thunderstruck.
Up till this moment, I had still been clutching on to a last sliver of hope.
But now that Andy really was Jerome’s biological son.
I suddenly felt like the villain who destroyed a happy family.
God, what was I supposed to do? At this time, under everyone’s stunned gaze, Linda walked up to
me and knelt down in front of me, holding Andy’s hand.
“Skylar, I know that our existence has caused you a lot of trouble.I’m sorry.But I beg you, please
give us a place to stay.If not for me, then at least for this child.I know my place.I won’t ever compete
with you for Jerome’s love.Can you please just take me and Andy in? Andy needs a father,” she
cried pitifully, begging me on her knees.
Why did I feel like I was a sinner?
“I’m sorry.I need to go and clear my head first.Please get up.You don’t have to do this.”
My mind was in a mess.
After helping Linda up to her feet, I ran out to the garden without looking back.
My legs were so weak that after I left the house, I staggered the rest of the way.
I collapsed onto a stone bench in the garden, with tears streaming down uncontrollably from my
eyes.
Tears were for the weak.
I knew I shouldn’t cry.
And yet…why did it hurt so much? I felt like my heart had been stabbed with a thousand knives.
My shoulders shook with sobs, and I clutched my chest.
“Skylar!”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmJerome called out to me just moments later.
It seemed that he had chased after me.
Letting out an exasperated sigh, he said, “Please don’t be like this.Come on, cheer up.I didn’t know
that Linda was pregnant when she left.I had no idea that I had a child until now.You know I would
never willingly hurt you.Can you accept my past?”
“Even if I’m willing to do that, how can I stay by your side, Jerome? Linda won’t let you go.She has
come back with your child.I should give you back to her.”
I shook my head and smiled bitterly.
“Skylar, don’t you still love me?”
Jerome asked softly, staring at me with affection in his eyes.
“Of course I do.But I don’t want to be a monster who destroys a family! You know what? I feel like a
third party in my own relationship.You’ve no idea how much I hate myself right now!”
I reached up and tugged my hair with a groan.
“No, you didn’t do anything wrong.Don’t blame yourself.”
Jerome held me in his arms and tried his best to comfort me.
But no matter what he said, I couldn’t stop the self- deprecating thoughts that flooded my mind.
The result of the paternity test had crushed my one last remaining hope.
How could I stay calm after this? Even if I married Jerome, I would never be able to live with a clear
conscience.
My heart would always be heavy with regret.
“Skylar, listen to me.We will be fine.Trust me, okay?”
Jerome said desperately, still trying to persuade me.
I wiped my tears away and took a deep breath to compose myself.
“That’s it.Take good care of Linda and Andy.Don’t let them suffer.I’m going back to my room.Don’t
follow me.I need some time alone.I have to carefully think about our relationship.”
I pushed him away, not daring to even look into his eyes in case I changed my mind.
Holding back my tears, I turned around and ran away.
