Daisy had thought Xavier was just introducing her to his family, and she did not expect to get into
trouble.She was at a loss and her expression turned ugly.
"Dad, calm down.Remember that it’s Zack’s birthday party today.."
Chris saw that things were going bad and quickly stepped in to interrupt them.He held Warren’s hand
and urged, "Don’t make a scene now.Everyone’s here.."
Warren took a deep breath and trembled in a fury.
"Does he know that there'll be a crowd today? If he knew everyone was coming, why did he still do
such a shameful thing?!"
He heaved heavily and glanced at the black car parked on the side.
The black car was parked on the side quietly with the windows half wound down.It was the Taylor
family’s car.
They had come to congratulate the Ford family.It was supposed to be a celebration and big event, but
Xavier’s actions had humiliated them.
Zeta sat in the car and looked at the two figures standing together.She remained quiet the whole time.
When she saw Xavier and Daisy standing close together, a throbbing pain overwhelmed her heart.
Zeta’s two elders had come over too.
They had wanted to get out of the car and meet Zachary, but it seemed unnecessary now.
"They don’t take us seriously.Let’s leave the gifts and leave!"
Warren was so angry that his heart ached.
"I feel so ashamed about this...I'm sorry about my ungrateful son!"
He was extremely regretful.
In Warren’s early years, he was too indulgent to Xavier because Xavier was born late into the family.He
did not even pamper Weston, his eldest grandson, as much.He had spoiled Xavier and made him a
willful adult! He was ashamed to meet his old friends from the Taylor family.
"I'm really sorry.I’ll formally apologize again some other day after teaching this brat a good lesson.."
"No need.."
The two elders from the Taylor family doted on Zeta, especially Zeta’s grandmother.She took Zeta’s
hand and said, "We don't care about a young brat like that!"
Zeta smiled at her grandmother.
"Grandma, I’m fine.Don’t worry about me.."
Zeta’s grandparents had never approved of the marriage.
They only agreed for Warren’s sake.
Besides, Zeta loved Xavier.
This time, Warren could not refute no matter how they scolded Xavier.
"Zeta, I’m sorry.Whether you’re with Xavier or not, we still think of you as family.This won’t change.No
matter how brazenly Xavier acts, no one can surpass you!"
Zeta smiled.
"It’s okay.Mutual consent does matter in love and relationships.Please just ignore the matters between
Xavier and I.I hope this won’t affect your relationship with my grandparents.."
Xavier heard her say that and looked up at her with an inexplicable gaze.He kept his gaze at Zeta the
whole time, hoping to see something in her eyes.He had thought he would see anger, resentment, or
sadness.
However, she said nothing and was as calm as usual.He curled his lips with his eyes full of sarcasm.
"As expected of a doctor.You’re indeed very calm.You're already so good at smoothing things over at
such a young age.You remain indifferent even though you've been abandoned—"
"Shut up!"
Warren yelled at him before he could finish.
"Why don’t you reflect on your disgusting actions before you talk about others?"
Zeta heard his comments and said nothing.She only glanced at him once and then withdrew her gaze.
"The gift is here.We have something going on, so we’ll leave first.I hope Zack grows up healthily.."
This time, Zeta had lost all hope in Xavier.
