Chapter 522 Blunt Refusal
“The child is still sleeping. You can’t see him now,” Nathaniel coldly rejected.
Zachary hadn't expected him to refuse so directly. “Nathaniel, this is my second there. At least letsee
him once, right? If he’s sleeping, | promise not to disturb him.”
“No.”
Zachary was taken aback. Nathaniel was way too protective of his son, not even letting anyone see him.
Unwilling to leave without at least a glimpse, Zachary said, “Fine, I'll just go use the bathroom.”
If Nathaniel wouldn't let him see the kid, he'd sneak a look instead.
In the garden outside, Cecilia and Vivian were taking a walk together.
Vivian didn’t bring up the news as she was afraid of upsetting Cecilia, so they chatted about recent events
instead.
Understanding her concern, Cecilia assured her that she wouldn't compromise herself this time. That finally put
Vivian at ease.

“If you ever feel unhappy, make sure to tell me. Don’t keep it bottled up inside,” Vivian urged.
Cecilia nodded. “I know.”
Afterward, Cecilia asked, “How are things going for you at the Sinclair family?”
When the Sinclair family was mentioned, Vivian didn’t seem as resistant as before.
“Other than Zachary, everything's been good. Honestly, it’s better than living with my own family. Old Mr.
Sinclair is very open-minded. | have a lot of freedom, and he’s even supportive ofresuming my law career.”
As she mentioned George, Vivian suddenly remembered something. “Oh, by the way, Ceci, Old Mr. Sinclair
knows that Jonathan isn’t Zachary’s son. But he said as long as the child is mine, that’s all that matters. He truly
treatslike his own granddaughter.”
Cecilia was genuinely happy for her after hearing this.
Vivian continued, “You have no idea how much he loves Jon. Today, Zachary wanted to bring Jon over, but Old Mr.
Sinclair wouldn't let him. He insisted on keeping him with him.”
“Jon does seem to be the kind of kid that elderly figures adore.”
Cecilia could sense from Vivian's words how much George liked Jonathan, but she didn’t pay too much attention,
having never seen it herself.
As the two were having a pleasant conversation, a young voice suddenly called out. “Mommy.”
At first, Cecilia thought she misheard until she saw Elliot coming out of the room.
“Mommy, | swear | didn’t cout of the room on my own. It’s all because of this bad mister.” Elliot's face was
flushed red.
Both Cecilia and Vivian were confused.
They hurried back to the room, only to find Zachary standing there in shock. He was still holding Elliot's jacket in
his hand.
‘Mommy, it was him. He even tried to pull off my clothes.” Elliot tattled.
Zachary was at a complete loss. “Mommy? He's your son?”
Cecilia immediately stood protectively in front of Elliot.
Sitting on the couch, Nathaniel massaged his temples. “Zach, weren't you going to the bathroom?”
Though he couldn’t see, Nathaniel hadn't expected Zachary to be bold enough to sneak off and find the child.
“Can | say | got lost and wandered into the wrong room?” Zachary felt awkward.

Right now, the most important thing was to figure out who the kid was.
He quickly turned to Vivian and asked, “Don’t you think this kid looks similar to Jon?
Vivian wanted to smack him awake. What does he mean by “similar?” They are obviously identical twins!
“Maybe a little,” she answered awkwardly.
Zachary was momentarily confused, but he wasn’t a fool.
“Nathaniel, I'm leaving the gift here. I've got something to take care of.”
He then dragged Vivian out the door without waiting for her agreement and left Elliot's jacket behind.
Once they were outside, Zachary regained his serious demeanor, looking at Vivian closely.
“Okay, spill it. What's really going on?”
There’s no way two mothers could give birth to identical children, right?
“I told you, the child isn’t yours, but you didn’t believe me.” Vivian poked at her fingers, “I borrowed the kid from
Ceci to scare off the blind dates.”
Zachary’s face turned grim. Turns out the kid isn’t mine. &
