Tiana handed Kiki to Mika Sumrs, her eyes red-rimd. "Sister-in-law," she said, "my brother told to bring Kiki back to you."
"Tiana..." Mika Sumrs’s heart was a ss. She didn’t know what to say.
She had always assud that once Tristan Grayson found out she’d had their child, he would definitely take the child from her. She never imagined he would actually ask Tiana to bring Kiki back.
"Sister-in-law, my brother... he isn’t really the person you think he is. I really hope you and my brother can make up, so we can all be a family again."
"Tiana, your brother and I... it’s impossible." ’How could all the pain from the past just vanish into thin air?’
"Sister-in-law..."
Seeing that Tiana was about to say more, Mika Sumrs quickly cut her off. "That’s enough, Tiana. You should head back. If you want to see Kiki in the future, you’re welco to co over anyti."
p>"Sigh. Alright, I’ll be off."
"Mm."
As she watched Tiana leave, Mika Sumrs breathed a sigh of relief. She hugged Kiki tighter, lowered her head to press a kiss to Kiki’s cheek, and her tears began to fall uncontrollably.
’Thankfully, Tristan Grayson isn’t completely heartless. Thankfully, he sent Kiki back to . Thankfully...’
’Kiki, I’m so, so sorry. It’s all Mommy’s fault...’
Tristan Grayson’s gaze was locked on the woman standing at the villa’s entrance. Watching her affectionate interactions with Kiki, he let out a self-mocking laugh as a pang of pain shot through his heart.
’He could have had a whole family, but now...’
"Brother, let’s go." Just then, Tiana walked over and saw Tristan staring blankly at the villa, so she prompted him quietly.
"Mm."
After Tristan Grayson dropped Tiana off at ho, he went straight to the company.
「12:30 AM. LK Group, CEO’s Office.」
Ian Shaw yawned as he grumbled, "Tristan Grayson, you fucking better have a good reason for calling , or you’re gonna pay for this!" ’He was at a loss for words. Every ti Tristan summoned him, it was always to interrupt him in the middle of... sothing good. He was starting to worry that if this kept up, the man would give him ED one day!’
"Shut up! Call Cassian Jennings and ask if he’s here yet!"
"Fine, fine, I’ll shut up. So you can make the call yourself." ’He’s the one who needs , and he’s still copping this attitude? Does he really think I’m that easy to push around?’
"Ian Shaw, drop the fucking attitude. If it wasn’t important, would I have dragged you guys over here in the middle of the night?"
Ian Shaw straightened up helplessly and sat properly. "Alright, alright, you’re the boss. Whatever you say, we’ll do."
"Hmph..."
Just as Tristan Grayson grunted in acknowledgnt, the door was thrown open from the outside. The newcor was Cassian Jennings. He was drunk, fixing his mocking, hazy eyes on Tristan. "Tristan, didn’t you give ti off? What the fuck is this, in the middle of the night?"
"You went drinking again?"
"A man’s gotta have so fun while he’s alive, right? What’s the point if you don’t drink?" Cassian Jennings said with a scornful laugh as he staggered toward the sofa.
Tristan Grayson pinched the bridge of his nose, his head starting to throb. "Henry Archer, give the file you compiled to Ian Shaw."
"Yes, sir."
Aiden Avery’s cold eyes were fixed on Cassian Jennings’s pathetic state. If Alia hadn’t made him promise not to go after Cassian before she left, he probably would have crippled the man a hundred tis over by now.
He was the type to hold a grudge, even against a man who had once been his best friend.
"There’s nothing wrong with the file," Ian said. "It’s pretty much the sa as what I found before. But, Tristan, why the sudden reinvestigation into X Group? Are you really planning to take down Archie Sumrs?"
