Chapter 52

Tyler spent a huge amount of money to treat Sonia and Zane to dinner, and he was evidently quite proud of himself as he swaggered into the house. He had already signed the contract for tryouts. Meanwhile, both Zane and Sonia had promised to keep this a secret for the time being. By the time he passed tryouts and officially joined the national basketball team, Tyler would no longer be fearful of Toby’s wrath because it would be insignificant. And so, Tyler hummed a tune as he walked into the foyer to change into his bedroom slippers. However, he entered the living room and was caught by surprise upon seeing Toby sitting on the couch.

Tyler stared at the other man in disbelief

and he wondered whether he had misheard something. “Toby, did you agree for me to… play basketball?”

“Yeah, go ahead,” Toby replied nonchalantly. “Do whatever makes you happy. I won’t stop you from it, and that includes playing basketball too. I’ll talk to Mom about it.”

Toby had rewatched the two video clips sent by Zane when he reached home at

night and he had contemplated the

situation for quite some time because of

Sonia’s words. Finally, he managed to

come to terms with everything. He had
