Chapter 113
As the sun set, the bright light dimmed and the night fell.
In the evening, a black Maybach stopped in front of the Wilson’s residence.
The Wilson family was going to have a family dinner today. Trevon arrived at the Wilson’s residence for dinner early. When he walked into the living room, Carlos and his family were already seated and chatting enthusiastically with one another.
They would laugh from time to time.
Surprisingly, Max did not bring a woman home this time.
It was said that Max did not break up with Emily, but they were not considered boyfriend and girlfriend. At most, they were regular booty calls. He still brought women along as usual, and it did not stop him from being with other women at all.
Upon seeing Trevon enter, Carlos said, “Trevon, I heard that your wife came back from overseas a few days ago. Why didn’t you bring her home today?”
After saying that, Carlos even glanced at the door deliberately.
The Wilson family never announced Trevon’s divorce in the past two years, and he never explained it himself. The fact that he went to Sapphire City every month made Carlos’s family believe that he was going there for Natalie. As a result, everyone else thought that Natalie was still Trevon’s wife.
It was even more impossible for Emily to tell Max about the divorce. Even when Natalie was not divorced yet, Max couldn’t keep his eyes off her. If Emily told Max about it, the outcome would be obvious. Emily was not stupid.
However, the butler and Mary knew about this.
Max hadn’t seen Natalie in two years. His heart itched. “Trevon, why isn’t Natalie here?”
Peggy smiled pretentiously. “Don’t tell me you are fighting with her? I say, Trevon, you’re spoiling her too much, to the extent that she’s lawless. She went overseas for two years right after marrying into the family. She never considers your feelings. You even cooperated with her and always traveled to be with her.”
Trevon’s face darkened as he listened to these discussions. He pressed his tongue against his teeth and remained cold as he said in a nasty tone. “Do you have a problem with me spoiling her?”
The atmosphere became awkward immediately. Max lowered his head and didn’t dare to speak anymore. Carlos didn’t say anything either and even glared at his daughter-in-law, who was so chatty.
Ted smiled and said, “Your aunt is just too talkative. Trevon, don’t mind her!”
Rachel wasn’t happy with how everyone acted as if they were watching a good show. “If you have time, try to find Max a nice girl. He’s not a child anymore but does nothing every day. Even if the Wilson family is rich, we can’t afford to spend it all on the girls in Athana.”
Upon hearing that, Peggy no longer felt as proud. “I’m just concerned about Trevon.”
Rachel said seriously, “We are concerned about each other. I’m just more concerned about Max than you are. Speaking of which, Max deserves more concern. You should spend less time playing cards and shopping, and spend more time on him.”
Peggy lowered her head and shut up completely. It was true that she liked to shop and buy luxury goods. Although the entire family knew about it, it was another thing to be exposed in front of so many people, not to mention that Carlos was also there.
Rachel said to her son, whose face had fallen, “Grandpa is in the study. Go and see him.”
Trevon ignored the others and turned to go upstairs. Looking cold, he knocked on the study door. “Grandpa.”
“Come in.”
Theo was practicing calligraphy. The white paper was laid flat on the table. He did not look up at his grandson and continued to dip his pen in ink, then wrote a word on the paper briskly, “Regret.”
Trevon looked at this eye-catching word and felt an indescribable gloom in his heart.
Theo, who had finished writing, smiled lovingly. “How’s my writing? What do you think about it?”
Trevon did not answer. He sat down at the other side of the desk and pursed his lips without saying anything. He had guessed what his grandfather meant. He was clearly mocking him.
“If you’re not saying anything, why are you here for me? If you want to do a glaring match with me, I can’t compare to you.” Trevon said helplessly, “Grandpa.”
Theo smiled. He put down his pen slowly and sat down. He sighed and said earnestly, “Have you seen her?”
Trevon didn’t say anything and just nodded silently.
It was obvious from his grandson’s expression. Theo stroked his beard and said, “Yes, now that she’s back in Athana, what are you going to do? Have you thought about it**
After a moment of silence. Trevon said slowly. “She has children. They might not be mine.”
Theo didn’t look too surprised. “So you’re hesitating because of the children You don’t want to take over.”
Trevon said in a low voice. “It’s not that”
Looking at his grandson, who was not in a good mood. Theo continued, “Since you don’t plan to give up, why are you still conflicted? In fact, love and marriage involve gambling. You can’t be sure that everything will turn out great in the end. Some people have been in love for more than ten years, but in the end, they would find out that they are betrayed when they are already old Some people argue for their entire lives and eventually grow old together We can’t predict the future, but what we can do is restrain ourselves and have faith in what we believe in in the first place Of course, we are not saints and would make mistakes. But it’s okay as long as we know how to make up for our mistakes.
“Trevon, you have a unique vision i doing business. You can see through everything. Why are you so slow when it comes to relationships Don’t you know why you’ve been running to and im Sapphire Caty countless times in the past two years? Don’t you know why you messed with the flowers in my courtyard?”
Trevon’s eyes remained lifeless and he could not make sense of what to do. He looked like someone looking for answers. “Would you mind if the children are not your great-grandchildren by blood”
Then wanted to shake his head. He was right to say that Trevon had a low EQ
“I don’t care. After all, she is my granddaughter The children would still be my great-grandchild even if they are not yours”
Trevon was speechless. Theo’s answer almost gave him a heart attack.
Afraid that his grandson would make an irreparable mistake, Theo reminded him. “Thave to remind you not to do a DNA Test If you take the children’s samples and do it in secret, I guarantee that Natalie would leave you forever. You would have an even harder time trying to get your wife back’
Trevon raised his head and looked at his grandfather in confusion. “Why?
Thro closed has eyes. He somewhat ked down on his grandson, who was so bad at being in a relationship Judging from Trevon’s expression, he was planning to do exactly what Theo told him not to “There are only two results for the test The children are either yours or not. If they re yours, you’d be satisfied. But have you thought about what Natalie would think? If you find out that they are yours, are you getting her back for the children or for her This would lead to misunderstandings. But if you find out that they aren’t yours, wouldn’t you care and hold a grudge against it You’d only be torturing yourself”
Trevon was speechless. Theo’s every word hat ham race and hard
Theo continued to analyze the situation for him. “What you’re doing is like opening a mystery box and drawing lots. There is a 30-30 chance Trevon, you’re a huge gambler in the company’s decision-making and can analyze things thoroughly. Why don’t you dare to take a risk in a relationship? If you win, everyone would be happy If you lose, you’d still have a wife. The worst situation would be that you’d become a stepfather. But who would dare to gossip about you in Athana? What are you afraid
Trevon was provoked, but he did not say anything Theo knew that his grandson understood.
In the end, he continued. “It seems like you’ve at least understood a part of at Since you know what you want, go ahead and do it. But remember that sincerity is the most important thing in the world Just because you’re rich doesn’t mean that you’re worth so much in everyone’s heart You d only be high and mighty if they care about you. If they don’t care about you, you’re nothing Don’t try to deceive her or try any schemes This would only make things worse. Love is very fragile. You can’t use any of your tricks and schemes from doing business when dealing with love. It won’t be easy for you to get your wife back. She is stubborn, but she’s kind. Don’t treat her with the same attitude as before. Think about it carefully. That’s all I can say to you. The rest is up to you.” Judging from his words. Theo was indeed worried sick for Trevon’s love life.
From the moment Trevon entered the study. Theo knew what he was conflicted about. Gage had long reported what the young master had been investigating these few days and also said that Natalie was back with two children.
Theo changed the topic. There’s one more thing you have to remember. A Wilson can never be a mistress. The prerequisite for you to pursue Natalie is that she is single. Otherwise, you’d be a home-wrecker.”
Trevon was speechless. After hearing Theo’s words, his eyes weren’t as gloomy as before.
Theo said, “If you really love someone, you wouldn’t care about what she does for a living or what she has gone through You only care about her. It’s actually a good thing that she has children already. It saves you a lot of effort.”
