Did something happen to the children?
If that was the case, then he would be in great remorse.
"Mango, tell me. What's wrong with the children?"
Queena and Dennis were also worried.
They had heard that Mango had given birth to a pair of twin boys, but they hadn't had the chance to see them. It wasn't that they didn't want to go back, but they couldn't.
Their duty was to guard this place. There were more and more mutant species in Dark Forest. Recently, some people were even injured. So Queena and Dennis could not leave Dark Forest.
They were regretful that they had never seen their grandchildren since birth. Now that they heard that something was wrong with the children, they felt anxious.
Mango smiled and said, "It's nothing. The children are healthy. It's just that there are some problems regarding our youngest son's eyes."
"What's the problem?"
Tristan, Dennis, and Queena asked at the same time.
Nathaniel replied, "The child's eyes are blue because of Desmond. Didn't Mango drink one drop of Desmond's blood before? The old man was afraid that he inherited Desmond's blood, so he is keeping an eye on our youngest son."
Tristan was instantly enraged.
"Bullshit! How could he inherit it with only one drop of blood? Why didn't he say that Desmond is our ancestor? At least there would be some basis to this."
Mango wanted to laugh, but she held back.
Tristan was very adorable nowadays.
"Tristan, we don't have anyone with blue eyes in our family. So we can't blame them for being suspicious. After a few years, when the child seems to be normal, everything will be alright then."
"Who gave them the rights to monitor my nephew for the next few years? Besides, who told you there is no one with blue eyes in our family?"
"What?"
Mango was surprised.
"Is there anyone in our family with blue eyes?"
"Yes, there is."
Tristan then looked at Queena and said, "Aunt Queena's mother has blue eyes."
"That's impossible!"
Queena was the first to object.
She had seen her mother before and her mother's eyes were black. How could they be blue?
Tristan touched his nose and asked, "Aunt Queena, do you know your mother's identity?"
"What identity could my mother have? She is just a..."
"Mom, grandma's identity is not simple."
Mango stopped Queena in time and told her about what happened between Javion and her grandmother. Mango had intended to tell her mother about it later, but it seemed like she could not hide the truth any longer.
