Jenson’s deep gaze locked onto Grayson's face. "I can take it. Tell me."
Storm still wished to cover up the tragedy. "Don't trust what you see online, Jens. They’re just rumors."
Grayson waved a hand at Storm. "It's fine, we can tell him. This child isn’t easy to lie to."
Grayson cleared his throat. Now that the lie had been seen through, he found no need to mask his emotions either. Miserably, he began, "Something did indeed happen to your daddy. He almost lost his life in an ambush on his way to save your biological grandparents. As of right now, he's still under immediate treatment at Grand Asia's intensive care unit."
Baby Robbie's pupils dilated in shock. It was as if his entire body had been steered by fury. The fists under his sleeves clenched tightly on their own accord.
Jenson's expression was frightfully serene. "Who did i t?"
Grayson replied, "We don’t know yet. But your other Grandpa, Jack Ares, has been busy lately. He even tried to move your father from the medical department to another in the name of paternal love. I'd say he definitely played a part in the scheme of things.”
Jenson’s exquisite features immediately chilled at the name 'Jack Ares’.
Meanwhile, Baby Robbie resembled a silent volcano that was ready to erupt. "I'm going to avenge Daddy."
Jenson, however, seemed to have an ungodly amount o f logic and calm. "Now is not the time for revenge.
Protecting daddy and stabilizing Grand Asia's current situation takes priority.”
Both Grayson and Storm applauded internally at Jenson's extraordinary amount of composure.
Jenson pinned his piercingly frosty gaze on Grayson and Storm. "Let Robbie and I out. We can help."
Zetty began to wail. "What about me?"
Robbie replied, "Protecting yourself is the biggest help you can give."
Baby Zetty was disappointed. "No. I want to go out and help too."
Jenson replied, "You're just a girl. All you need to do for now is sit still and look pretty."
At that, both Jenson and Robbie left.
