The air seemed to stand still for a moment.
All that was left was the still rolling headgear that pulled at Alexis’ gaze.
His heart stuttered, and the only two words left in his mind were finished.
Amad had just said that her mommy was super social and didn’t want to see strangers, so she came to the drop-off armed to the teeth.
As a result, he accidentally took off Amad’s mom’s head covering.
The sin was too great!
Not daring to hesitate, Alexis rushed to pick up that head covering and wanted to return it to Amad’s mom.
Turning around, he froze in knots.
What the hell?
Looking at the person in front of her, Alexis couldn’t believe her eyes, “How can you … be you, how can you be Amad’s mom?”
The person in the doll suit tugged awkwardly at the corners of her mouth and squeezed out a smile, “What a coincidence, Alexis, Mr. Navarro.”
“No, you’re definitely not Amad’s mom, are you?” Alexis was still reeling from that.
“Of course not, after all I’m a man, how can I be a mom.” Lynx explained.
That’s right, in fact the Play. The person in the doll suit wasn’t Anna at all, it was Lynx.
Bonnie couldn’t hire Anna and didn’t want to disappoint Amad, so she enlisted the help of Lynx to put on the show.
It was seamless, but then Alexis became a variable.
“Yeah, yeah, yeah, you’re a man, how could you possibly be Amad’s mom,” Alexis followed up by repeating this, followed by a change in tone and a wide-eyed stare, “So you’re Amad’s dad?”
Lynx: “… No.”
Really curious how on earth someone with Alexis’s kind of brain circuitry got to be Cedron’s personal secretary.
Does going out really not offend the clients?
“Mr. Navarro, if there’s nothing else, then I’ll leave first ah.” Lynx said as she squeezed out a smile.
Cedron’s face was expressionless, not saying yes or no.
Seeing this, Lynx walked forward stiffly.
“Tomorrow is the child’s first seven days, will she come?” Cedron suddenly lifted his thin lips slowly behind him.
It was just a soft and faint sentence, but it sent chills down Lynx’s backbone, and his whole body was fixed in place.
It took a long time before he gave a response, “Mr. Navarro, how would I know such a thing, it depends on Anna herself if she wants to go or not.”
“You’re staying with her aren’t you,” Cedron spoke again, “so I’ll trouble you to ask.”
Trouble …
To the side, Alexis was stunned.
When had the Mr. Navarro he remembered as being so high and mighty ever spoken to anyone like that.
Moreover, it was just asking Lynx to help ask a question.
But Lynx had no intention of taking the favor, “Mr. Navarro, as I said, it’s Anna’s own decision whether to go or not, there’s no use for me to ask, if you want to know so badly, just go and ask her yourself, if you can get in touch with her.”
“What’s wrong with you!” Alexis couldn’t help herself and went up to Lynx trying to grab him by the collar and tell him to go easy on Cedron.
Mr. Navarro had had a hard enough time these past few days, why should he have to take it from Lynx now?
But just as his hand touched Lynx’s shirt, Lynx’s entire body stumbled backward and spun around, falling heavily to the ground.
“You … I didn’t … press it at all,” Alexis was dumbfounded by this scene and stuttered.
Before he could finish his sentence, a man rushed out from behind a giant potted plant not far away and came up to assist Lynx.
“Are you alright, Master?”
“Miss Newman, what are you doing here?” Alexis’ eyes widened in shock, “Aren’t you in the sanitarium?”
“If I didn’t come, how was I supposed to know that Elder Brother was being treated like this?” Anna’s voice was icy cold and her gaze fell pensively on Cedron’s face.
It was morose and cold, and endlessly hateful.
