Chapter 214 Caught in the Rain

After everyone left, Tyrone turned to Virginia. “Mom, what are you doing here?”

Virginia didn’t bother with small talk. “Zera and her son can’t stay in their old house anymore. I had them rent a place downtown so it’ll be casier for you to take care of them.”

The mention of Zera made Tyrone’s face darken.

“If you have something to say, let’s

go to my office.”

Virginia pointed toward the meeting room. “It’s fine. This will only take a minute.”

Tyrone gave Noel a look and followed her inside.

Noel closed the door and stood guard outside.

Tyrone poured her a glass of water and said, “Mom, how many times do I have to tell you? Please stay out of

stay out of my business.”

Virginia slammed the cup onto the table. “You cheated, and the entire family gets dragged through the mud. You think this is just your problem?”

He fell silent-it was the same argument again.

Virginia pressed on, showing no mercy. “Since you’ve already accepted that woman and her son, you need to take responsibility. They’re going through a hard time. Go stay with them for a few days. Be there for them.”

Tyrone’s patience wore thin. He couldn’t explain himself; all he could do was endure this.

“Mom, will you only be happy once I divorce Aella?”

Virginia scoffed coldly. “You know better than anyone whether Aella still wants to be with you.”

Tyrone braced both hands on the edge of the meeting table. His shoulders sank.

He was silent for a long moment.

After a long pause, he said quietly, “Mom, I know you’ve watched Aella grow up. You hate to see her suffer. But I’m your son. I already told you, I don’t want a divorce, I’m trying to fix things with her. Can you please stop pushing me?”

Virginia folded her arms. “Orson is your son too, Tyrone. He’s a Winters by blood. You need to take responsibility for them both.”

Her tone hardened. “You’ll go stay with them tonight. If you don’t, tomorrow I’ll bring that child home myself. He’ll be officially recognized-without his mother.”

Virginia stormed out with that threat hanging in the air.

When she left, Tyrone slumped into his chair, exhausted.

He’d only acknowledged Orson as his son to stop his grandfather from giving Zera a hard time.

The boy wasn’t his. If his mother brought that child home, claiming him as one of their own, there would be no turning back.

Tyrone stayed silent for several long minutes.

He took a deep breath, then called Aella.

Tyrone lied and told Aella he had a business dinner that night and would be home late. Aella simply said “okay” and hung up.

After work, a few of Aella’s coworkers dragged her to a trendy new restaurant downtown.

By the time they left, it was past eight. A light drizzle began to fall.
