Chapter 36
Mike’s words left the four momentarily stunned-Jaydon in disbelief, Alita in helplessness, Annabel in displeasure, and Kim with a subtly mocking smile.
They each harbored thoughts, but no one dared to object. In the Lewis family, Mike’s words were considered law.
“Alita, do you like my arrangement?” Mike looked at her with a kind smile. He could see her helplessness, but precisely because of her strained relationship with Jaydon, he wanted to create opportunities for them. He didn’t have much time left.
Alita gracefully smiled at him. “It’s great. I’ve no objections.”
Mike nodded in satisfaction and then looked at Jaydon, Annabel, and Kim. “Do any of you have objections?”
“Nope.” Annabel forced a cheerful smile.
“I was just thinking of taking a break. Kim smiled with composure.
*Grandpa, may I know where we’re going?” Jaydon asked casually
“You’ll know when you get there. You better work hard and try to get Alita pregnant these days. Mike shot him a sharp gaze.
Jaydon smirked. “s
“Sure, we’ll spend every moment of these two days in bed. We’ll make sure to give you a great-grandson.” He glanced over at Kim, a smug look in his eyes.
That’s the best. Annabel, keep an eye on your brother. Don’t let him slip away,” Mike arranged for Annabel and Kim to go. together for this purpose.
“Yes, Grandpa. I’ll watch over him,” Annabel sweetly responded, trying to please Mike.
“I’ve arranged a helicopter to pick you up this afternoon. You have some time this morning to arrange your current work.” Mike smiled broadly, very pleased with his plan.
Exiting Mike’s room, Annabel walked hand in hand with Kim, leaving first. Jaydon and Alita headed to the dining room for breakfast.Copyright by Nôv/elDrama.Org.
A round crystal table, white plates, silver cutlery, and well-trained servants standing by-Jaydon and Alita sat facing each other, enjoying a delicious breakfast.
Such a morning was a rare gift from the heavens
Jaydon waved to the servants, and they quickly left the dining room.
“Darling, why do you think Grandpa included Kim?” Jaydon’s casual question broke the silence.
Alita stopped chewing and looked up. “What are you trying to say?”
“I’m thinking, could Grandpa know about your affair with Kim and want to use this opportunity to test you?* Jaydon nonchalantly said, staring at her. His gaze, seemingly gentle, carried an eerie feeling. “Darling, be careful. Don’t reveal anything, or you’ll be in deep trouble. He gently whispered the last sentence in Alita’s ear.
Alita gave him a faint smile. “Thanks for the reminder.”
“You’re welcome. Let’s eat. Jaydon flashed a bright smile. Despite his seemingly kind attitude, it only made Alita more uneasy.

In the afternoon, Alita packed up two sets of dark-colored clothes, along with bandages and ointment. She waited downstairs in the hall for them. Jaydon rushed back from the office, not bringing anything but changing his clothes upstairs. Behind them, Annabel and Kim approached.
