How could Jeffrey not know? It’s as clear as day - a done deal.
If Langston wasn't Everett's child, it would be a cold day in hell!
But...
"Have you considered how to look into the child's mother?"
The Lopez family couldn't just take in a child with an unknown origin! Besides, the appearance of this child would stir up many things; it wasn't just about the child.
Everett, of course, wasn’t going to let it slide. He intended to investigate but didn't want to rush into it.
"This kid seems to have some hostility towards me. I think instead of prying, it's better to let him tell me straight."
Jeffrey pointed at Langston, "Ha? He doesn't know anything. What could he tell you?"
"Do you actually believe that he doesn't know anything?"
Of course not.
Jeffrey even suspected that the child's IQ might be higher than his own! Not knowing anything was just an excuse for not wanting to speak.
After taking Langston back, Jeffrey escorted them to their house in Bay Residence before reluctantly parting ways.
Of course, Langston didn't forget about the computer and promptly provided Jefferey with the promised number.
Once back at the Lopez Corporation, Jefferey intended to handle company affairs first, but his mind wasn't on his work. He pushed his keyboard aside and wrote down the number on a piece of paper!
This number was new to him.
Jeffrey had input it into his phone, but there was no match.
As soon as he received the number, he immediately compared it to Heather’s. Upon realizing it wasn't her number, he breathed a sigh of relief.
He hoped it wasn't Heather; he didn't want to admit that he had once been infatuated with such a ruthless woman.
"Knock, knock..."
Suddenly, someone knocked on the office door.
Jeffrey looked up to see one of the people he had sent out to find Langston.
