A loud curse from Paxton echoed around the dining area. Even the servants left the room because of how scary he was right now. His eyes were raging in anger, he couldn’t believe the truth.“You’re upset right now, Paxton but I hope you understand me. For the past ten years, I trained you, I became your father in those years, didn’t you cherish all those moments? I even gave you my surname. Do you know how happy I was when your surname changed to Braxon? For twenty-five years I’ve been waiting for you to call me father and when you did, it makes me feel so happy. Don’t you feel the same?” Sylvester asked.Tears finally run down Paxton’s cheeks. He was panting as he remembers ever

They are all still in shock.“What is your plan now?” Red asked, breaking the silence between them.Paxton sighed and then looked outside the window. Thinking that he will put his own father behind bars makes him anxious. But on the other hand, he never really treat as his father but as his godfather who’s willing to help him all throughout. Even though he finds out that he was his father, that won’t change his mind.“We will still continue our plan of putting him in jail. What he did was unforgivable,” he replied.“That’s good, I thought you’d already changed your mind after his confession. He deserves to be in jail for killing all his friends.”He knew that Sylvester confessed to him because he wants him to change his mind.

Paxton, Ryker, your father was killed by my Uncle, you should be celebrating now! You two looked like you didn’t like the result of it,” he added.Red sighed and then leaned back on the sofa before he closed his eyes.“I want vodka. I want to go to the bar to drink and forget everything that happened just this week,” Red said chuckling. “I’ve discover

What is his connection to his brother-in-law?“Have you been eating, my brother-in-law? You looked thinner than when we last see each other,” Levi said.
