Daddy?

Sophia, who was drinking some orange juice, turned around and saw Michael walking in with Quinton.

Even though they were half brothers, they looked incredibly similar since they had the same features. These days, Quinton concealed the arrogance in his temperament; he appeared to have an air of elegance around him as he walked in with a smile. He looked even more like the photo of Theo that Sophia had seen.

Wait a minute—why is Quinton in my house? Why did Michael even bring him here?!

As soon as he appeared, the atmosphere in the house turned tense. When Justin saw Quinton, he was instantly filled with rage and almost charged forward, but Celine was ecstatic as she jumped up with joy like a child and screamed, “Daddy!”

Quinton was stunned.

Tugging his hand happily, Celine smiled innocently and said, “Daddy!”

Michael explained hurriedly, “You’ve been mistaken, Celie. This is our little brother; he just looks like Daddy, but Daddy has been gone for years.”

Celine seemed very fond of Quinton as she quickly corrected herself, but Quinton smiled awkwardly and nodded stiffly in response to her.

Then, he caught sight of Sophia standing by the pool in a one-piece swimsuit. Although she was wrapped in a towel, her long legs were still exposed; under the bright sunlight, her snow-like skin together with her elegant demeanor made the water droplets on her thighs seem like crystal pearls.

 

He felt a tug at his heartstrings and subconsciously walked toward her. But before he could take another step, a voice came from behind him.

“You’re going in the wrong direction—it’s this way.”

 

With that, Michael forcefully grabbed Quinton’s arm and pulled him toward the other direction.

As Michael dragged Quinton away, he wrapped his arm around his brother affectionately as Sophia watched in amazement.
