Zev sat across from Wade, glancing at Wade, who remained silent. “Grandpa, did you call me here just so we could sit and stare at each other?”

Wade let out a sigh. “You’re already this old, yet all you seem to do is test my patience.“.

Zev straightened his posture. “It’s not like I’m trying to upset you, but have you ever considered that maybe you’re the one frustrating me?”

Wade clenched his teeth, raising a hand as if he was about to throw something at Zev.

However, his movements were sluggish with age. He hesitated, grabbed the ashtray from the table, then set it back down. “If you truly refuse to divorce Kelly, I won’t interfere. But you must wholeheartedly accept Shane. He’s done nothing wrong.”

“Grandpa, it’s not that I don’t want to acknowledge him, but I’m only telling the truth. The sperm left behind back then, it wasn’t mine …” Zev looked at Wade seriously. “Can you believe me this once? That sperm… it belonged to Caden Hardison.”

Wade froze, his sharp gaze fixed on Zev.

If Zev had merely denied responsibility, Wade might have dismissed his claim.

But the moment he mentioned Caden’s name, a chilling sensation crept over Wade’s heart.

“Grandpa, Clarissa and Beau are dangerous. You’ve served in the military. You understand what my assignment in Solmaris entailed. There are things I can’t disclose, but illegal trade, smuggling, and organ trafficking. They might all tie back to the Lynches. You’ve lived honorably all your life. Don’t let them manipulate you in the end.”

Zev had been wanting to tell Wade this for a long time, but Wade had refused to listen.

At last, he succeeded in intimidating Wade with Caden

Wade still hadn’t fully processed everything. It took him a moment to gather his thoughts, and only then did he decide to grab the ashtray and hurl it.

“Grandpa!”

Zev didn’t evade. The blow landed on his chest, sending a sharp pain through him.

“Clarissa is a kind girl … ” Wade remained firm in his belief that Clarissa was a good person. “As for the child, I won’t trust anyone’s claims until I see the paternity test results myself.”

“She hurt Jasper and stole his hair while he was in the hospital. Do you seriously believe Shane just had a fever? Clarissa is manipulative. Even the so–called rescue she gave you was probably a setup,” Zev scoffed.

Zev fixed his gaze on Wade. “At your age, don’t be so nave. I’m your grandson. At the very least, I wouldn’t deceive you. Our family assets–who you choose to give them to is your business. But Clarissa and the Lynches? Absolutely not.”

Wade remained seated on the couch, still in a daze.

“Get out!”

Wade’s voice shook as he ordered Zev to go, unable to withstand the emotional turmoil.

What Zev had done had truly hurt him.

Back then, he could hardly bear the blow of his son’s early death. Fearing something might happen to his grandson, he wanted to leave behind an heir, a memory to hold on to.

But Zev resented him so much that he refused even to leave him with a memory. Instead, he went so far as to use Caden instead.

If this was true, then Shane

Wade slammed his hand against the table, his fury erupting.

This is a sin!

It was Zev’s sin, but also his own.

Seeing Wade’s genuine rage, Zev hesitated, not daring to say anything else. He preparing to leave.

“This matter…” Wade’s voice was rough and strained. “Do the Hardisons know about it?”

“They don’t …” Zev admitted truthfully, barely speaking above

a

whisper.

“You’d better keep it that way. If the Hardisons find out, they’ll want you dead, and I won’t step in.” Wade’s tone quivered slightly.

The child is so innocent.

Zev studied Wade’s expression, realizing that he was thinking about Shane’s future.

This caught Zev off guard.

He had assumed that, to Wade, only honor and lineage mattered.

But that wasn’t the case.

“Could you and Kelly adopt Shane?” Wade finally broke the silence, his voice aged and weary, carrying a trace of supplication.

Having Zev and Kelly adopt Shane seemed like the most straightforward solution now.

If Shane stepped into the Lockharts, he could claim the inheritance without ever setting foot in the Lynches.

Zev stayed quiet.

After standing motionless for a long time, he finally spoke. “Grandpa, aren’t you worried that he doesn’t trul, belong to our family and will disgrace your name
