“He’s my son I can talk to him anyhow I like,” Mr. Hunt said and Sophia burst into laughter.
“Do I look like I care? I need to know the reason why you called my Dad a Bàstàrd” Sophia said with a frown.
“When did Rowen give birth?” Mr. Hunt asked. “Mr. Hunt you’ll like to answer her question fast before she gets angry” Rowen replied.
He removed a bubble gum from his pocket and throw it in his mouth.
“Anyway, I like calling him a Bàstàrd because he loves behaving like a one” Mr. Hunt replied.
“My dad isn’t a bàstàrd, how can you call a good man like this a bàstàrd?” Sophia asked.
“He’s my son I can call him anything I like,” Mr. Hunt replied.
“And he’s my dad, you can’t call him anything you want, call him with respect our generation is lucky to have someone like him” Sophia yelled.
“I surrender!” Mr. Hunt said and raised his hand up in the air and Mrs. Hunt looked into Rowen’s face surprised.
“Just like that?” Mrs. Hunt asked. “Yes, this girl can beat me up if I don’t agree with her,” Mr. Hunt said with a smile.
He moved closer to Rowen and spread his hand forward for a handshake.
Rowen reluctantly brought out his hand and check Mr. Hunt.
“This doesn’t mean I have forgiven you for running away, you will still tell me why you leave only me with piles of works,” Mr. Hunt said.
“There’s no need to explain later, you guys aren’t giving me peace of mind, all you want is money and getting married” Rowen replied chewing his gum loud.
“I was only training you” Mr. Hunt replied.
“I don’t need the training” Rowen replied and Sophia went to his side.
“Who’s she?” Mr. Hunt asked.Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
“I thought she made mentioned of her being my child” Rowen replied.
“I heard her, I’m not deaf but I didn’t believe it, when did you give birth to a grow-up kid like this?” Mr. Hunt asked.
“He adopted me from the orphanage home, any more questions?” Sophia asked and Mr. Hunt smiled.
“She’s so smart I love her,” Mr. Hunt said.
“What’s your name beautiful?” Mr. Hunt asked. “Little pretty beautiful Sophia” Sophia replied with a smile.
“Wow, all this name for only you?” Mr. Hunt asked.
“Yes, didn’t you like it?” Sophia asked with a frown.
“Yeah I do, but you didn’t add Hunt” Mr. Hunt replied.
“Oh, my bad” Sophia replied with a smile.
“I’m Mr. Hunt your granddad nice meeting you beautiful,” Mr. Hunt said with a smile.
“I’m glad you like me,” Sophia said. “Thank goodness I just finished preparing dinner, it’s time to eat dinner,” Mrs. Hunt said happily and they all walked to the dining.
Dinner was awkward until Austin speak out.
“Uncle Austin apply table manners please,” Sophia said with an eye roll and Mrs. Hunt burst into laughter.
“We have many things to talk about after dinner,” Mrs. Hunt said and Rowen nod his head.
“I’ll be going to my house after dinner, my house has missed me a lot, and I also missed it,” Austin said dramatically.
“Drama King,” Mrs. Hunt said.
“Ma did you like me?” Sophia suddenly asks. “Sure I do, why did you ask?” Mrs. Hunt asked.
“I asked because you didn’t care about asking for my name” Sophia replied with a pout. “I’m sorry, I think there’s no need since you’ve already told your grandpa” Mrs. Hunt replied and Sophia nod her head with a smile.
“Here’s what I found about you, I was going through some files your father gave me before his death and I found out he’s not your biology father,” Mr. Maxwell said.
“That’s not possible!” Brittany said immediately with a smile. “Dad this is one of your jokes right?” Brittany asked.
“It’s possible and I’m not joking my dear, your mother is your biological mother but Mr. Chad isn’t your father, my Chad married your mother with your pregnancy which is well known to Mr. Chad,” Mr. Maxwell said.
“No no” Brittany shouted with shaking hands. “you can go through the letters, I didn’t even know he left some things behind for you until now,” Mr. Maxwell said.
“Why didn’t he tell me before now?” Brittany asked.
“His reason is stated there just go through the book, your real father is also there” Mr. Maxwell replied.
“Gosh! My Hunt” Brittany said.
“Yes, Mr. Hunt did you know him?” Mr. Maxwell asked.
“I’m not really sure but I hope it’s not what I’m thinking,” Brittany said.
“Did you know any Hunt?” Maxwell asked.
“Yes I once donated my blood for Emma’s boyfriend and it worked, can Rowen be my brother?” Brittany asked.
“I think you know him, Hunt is one of my friends, we will give him a surprise visit tomorrow,” Maxwell said and pat Brittany back before walking out to call Emma.
“Mr. Maxwell, how are you?” Emma asked.
“As you can see I’m fine, but your Friend isn’t fine” Mr. Maxwell replied and Emma sprang up immediately.
“What happened to her? What did you do to her?” Emma asked.
“I didn’t do anything, she will explain to you when you get to my study, I don’t know how to pet,” Mr. Maxwell said. “Emma let’s go together,” Mrs. Maxwell said and they both rushed to Maxwell’s study.
“Brittany, what happened?” Emma asked immediately she stepped foot inside the study.
“I just found out something I don’t know about myself, I found out my late Dad isn’t my biological dad” Brittany replied and tears drop from her eyes.
“Hey baby I don’t like seeing tears, but how did Mr. Maxwell know all this?” Emma asked.
“He told me he came across the file Mr. Chad gave to him before he died, but I don’t pay attention to it” Mrs. Maxwell replied.
“Oh I see, what are you going to do now? And who’s your biological father? I’m sure you have to know who he’s by now” Emma said.
“Mr. Hunt, but I’m not sure if it’s the Mr Hunt I know” Brittany replied.
“It can never be a coincidence you know why I said that,” Emma said.
“But I still find all this funny, my father has never told me he’s not my biological father, he always take care of me as his, he has never give me reason to doubt him, and my mother didn’t dime it fit to tell me,” Brittany said.
“They did that for your good I guess!” Mrs. Maxwell replied moving closer to her.
“They did it for their selfish interest, maybe they don’t want me to know who my real dad is because of their selfish interest” Brittany replied.
“You never can tell, you don’t know what your biological father did to your mother and if it’s truly Mr. Hunt Is your father, your mother might be his Mistress, maybe that’s the reason why she kept it a secret,” Emma said.
“Concubine,” Brittany said and burst into tears. “You shouldn’t have said that,” Mrs. Maxwell said with an eye roll.
“I never knew it will hurt her, baby you know I love you, stop crying everything happens for a reason, you should be happy you later know who your father is,” Emma said.
“I’m hurt!” Brittany said. “You don’t have to, take a deep breath,” Emma said with a smile, and Brittany smiled out. “Good girl, this is what I wanna see,” Emma said and sat on her lap.
“Hey don’t break my leg you àsshólè” Brittany shouted and Emma drag her hair.
Brittany’s phone rang out loud.
She looks at the screen and hissed out loud. “Who’s Austin?” Mrs. Maxwell asked with a smile.
“Brittany crush” Emma blunt out.
“Are you okay? Austin isn’t my crush” Brittany replied.
“He’s not your crush, but you like him” Emma replied.
“Give him a chance I need to see my grandchildren,” Mrs. Maxwell said and walked out of the study.
“Emma Maxwell I’m gonna kîll you today” Brittany shouted.
“I love you too darling” Emma’s replied and rushed to her room and Brittany run after her.
“Open the door!” Brittany said hitting her hand on the door.
“No dinner is ready I’ll come to join you soon, I can’t afford to lose my front teeth” Emma replied.
“I’ll still deal with you, you can’t escape from me” Brittany replied with gritted teeth.
“Sorry baby, you already lose this time around” Emma replied and Brittany walked to the dining.
“I can see you’re better now,” Mr Maxwell said with a smile.

“Hurry up, we need to prepare something delicious before your boyfriend comes” mum shouted.
“Mum don’t pressurize me, I’ll come out when I’m done” I shouted, she has been disturbing me since I told her Rowen agreed to come today, Brittany and Dad left this morning, I hope her stepmom and Dad accept her.
“Emma Maxwell!” Mum yelled.
“Mrs. Sandra Maxwell let me be” I yelled back.
“I promise to break your room door” she shouted. “You’ll fûcking fix it with your money” I replied.
“I know my husband owes the house, I can destroy anything I like” she replied.
“This woman is too proud for my liking” I shouted and she burst into laughter.
She’s planning to cook a lot of food today just because Rowen promised to come, I wished I never tell her.

Brittany and Mr. Maxwell came down from Mr. Maxwell’s car and Mr. Maxwell hold Brittany’s hand.
“Take a deep breath Brittany,” Maxwell said and Brittany smile at him.
They walked to the door and placed a knocked on it. “Good day sir, how may I help you?” A maid asked.
“We are here to see Mr. Hunt” Mr. Maxwell replied and the maid open the door widely for them to enter.
“Aunty!” Sophia rushed to hug Brittany immediately she saw her.
“Gosh! He’s truly the one” Brittany muttered. “Oh good, but have you seen him before?” Mr. Maxwell whispered. “No Dad” Brittany replied.
