Across the street, Zera pointed to a restaurant. “Tyrone, I have a lot to say to you. Can we sit down and talk somewhere quiet?”
Ten minutes later, Tyrone and Zera arrived at the restaurant. Zera deliberately chose a booth by the window.
Zera didn’t bother ordering. She leaned forward, anxious. “Tyrone, why haven’t you answered my calls? Your grandpa already knows about Orson’s identity. When he wakes up, he’ll come after me. What should I do?”
Tyrone stayed calm and comforted her, “Don’t worry. I promised to protect you, and I’ll keep my word.”
When Tyrone promised to take responsibility, Zera burst into tears. She grabbed his hand, her voice trembling. “Tyrone, I knew you’d never be that cruel to me.”
Just then, Aella walked into the restaurant with Mason and Henry. The moment she stepped in, her eyes landed on Tyrone and Zera sitting together.
Mason leaned toward her and whispered, “Do you want to go somewhere else?”
Aella pointed to the table right behind Tyrone. “No. We’ll sit there.”
Tyrone froze when he saw them walking past. Instinctively, he pulled his hand away from Zera’s.
Zera noticed his face turned grim. Trying to smooth things over, she hurried to Aella and said, “Dr. Reid, please don’t misunderstand. I asked Tyrone to meet me. I just needed to talk to him.”
Aella set her bag on the table and smiled faintly. “Oh? And what exactly would I be misunderstanding? The way you two were holding hands just now?”
Tyrone stayed seated. His fingers were tightening into fists beneath the table unknowingly.
Zera fumbled for words. “Dr. Reid, could you not speak so harshly?”
Henry gripped Aella’s hand and urged her to sit. “Mommy, here.”
Zera’s gaze
flicked between the child and Mason. Her tone sharpened.
“You’re still married to Tyrone, yet here you are dining with another man and acting like this child’s mother. Have you even considered how Tyrone must feel?”

Aella sighed softly, then smiled with deliberate calm. “That’s the Winters tradition. Since you haven’t married into the family, it’s natural you wouldn’t understand. I don’t blame you.”
Zera’s face went pale. She nearly choked on her
anger.
Aella turned her head and swept across Tyrone behind her.
She reached over, grabbed his arm, and said coldly, “Why don’t you tell your sweetheart how it feels to be the father of someone else’s child?”
Tyrone’s gaze locked on her face, full of complicated emotion.
He gently held her hand and said, “Don’t be upset. Make sure you eat your lunch. I need to head out anyway.”
Tyrone gave Mason a polite nod, glanced toward Zera, and walked away.
Zera panicked and hurried after him, leaving the restaurant in a rush.
Mason exhaled heavily.
