"So, you need to hurry up and bring Richard out. Otherwise, when can you truly enjoy the leisure life of a lady of high society?"
Faye Townsend sighed helplessly: "My brother is about to become a father, and for at least this year, he probably won’t be in the mood.
You don’t know, when people first become parents, they’re very busy.
Because it’s their first time dealing with a child, they inevitably need to invest a lot of energy."
Hunter Warren sighed: "Although I already have two children, I really don’t know what the feeling of becoming a parent for the first time is like."
With that, Faye pouted and raised her hand to gently tap on his chest: "Hey, are you here to act like a spoiled child with me today?"
Hunter Warren smiled charmingly: "Not really, I am here to report to you about work."
"What?" Faye looked at him incredulously and laughed: "Since when have I been so formidable that our Second Master needs to report his work to me?"
"You’ve always been this formidable," he said as he took out a document and handed it to her: "Here you go."
After glancing at it, Faye asked, "Hm? Isn’t this the paternity test result? Didn’t they say it would take many days to get it back?"
"Actually, I lied to you yesterday."
As Hunter Warren was speaking, Faye had already pulled out the results to read. She raised her eyebrows and smiled, as this was what she expected: "Why did you lie to me?"
"Yesterday, the test results got switched. I didn’t dare give them to you," explained Hunter.
As Hunter spoke, he recounted the events after receiving the test report yesterday to Faye.
Faye shook her head in disbelief and chuckled: "You’re clearly looking for trouble.
If you had told me last night, I would have decisively told you that there was something wrong with those results.
I know very well what kind of person I am.
I wouldn’t lightly do that sort of thing with a man I don’t fancy."
Faye set the results aside: "But are you really sure that Sebastian Sheldon is behind this?"
"No one else would do such a nonsensical thing besides him.
And these past few days, the only person who has been in contact with Roman is her.
Just before I came to see you, Roman even called me, saying she wanted to meet with me tonight."
Faye shook her head and smiled: "Don’t go."
"Why?" Hunter Warren’s face wore a cold smile: "I can’t tolerate someone daring to do this to me and the woman I love.
This behavior is more than just shameful.
If it weren’t for the high level of trust between us, I suppose... her actions could have affected our marriage.
How could someone like her be forgiven?"
Faye’s brow furrowed slightly. Wasn’t Sebastian bringing this trouble upon herself?
That evening, Hunter Warren was sitting alone in a private room drinking sullenly when Roman Hughes entered.
He sat down beside Hunter with a playful smile.
"Hunter, why are you drinking alone again?"
While talking, he gestured meaningfully at Hunter.
Hunter didn’t respond but continued to drink.
At that moment, Roman said loudly, "Hey, today I brought an old acquaintance for you.
Why don’t you two have a drink together? Drowning your sorrows in alcohol alone will only make you more miserable."
He then called out to the door: "Come in."
Sebastian Sheldon came in from the door; Hunter glanced at her and continued to drink silently, but said irritably: "Get out."
Sebastian looked at Roman Hughes, whose hand was on Hunter’s shoulder, "Alright, I know you’re feeling upset, but Sebastian isn’t a stranger.
You used to get along well. Why the need for this?
We’re all pitiful creatures of the same world, right?"
Sebastian approached with a pitiful look in her eyes: "Hunter..."
Hunter huffed coldly. Roman stood up and held Sebastian down: "Come on, Sebastian. You sit down. You two have a chat alone, please help me talk some sense into Hunter. I’m going to order a few bottles of wine."
Roman left after saying that.
Sebastian sat not far from Hunter and took his hand: "I’ve heard about what you’re going through from Roman. Hunter, don’t be . I really don’t want to see you tormenting yourself, I’m worried about you, truly worried."
As she spoke, tears had already filled her eyes.
Hunter looked up at her, his eyes carrying a hint of infatuation: "Worried? Sebastian, do you still worry about me?"
