Koi, who had been looking at him with twinkling eyes and feeling burdened, opened her mouth as if she had been waiting for Dane to put down the cup.
“How did you et my child? At work? Is Grayson adjusting well? How long have you been together? When did you start living together.......”
Was Grayson Miller just inheriting the shell from Ashley Miller?
Dane looked at Koi with a tired expression without realizing it. Koi was surprised by his blatant expression and let out an awkward laugh.
“I’m sorry, when it cos to our children, I can’t control myself.......”
That could be true.
Dane thought absentmindedly. So parents are too interested in their children.
He suddenly frowned as he thought about that. When did I beco so generous?
If it were normal, he would have gotten up already, feeling annoyed, but he continued to sit and even showed such broad-minded understanding. Was this also the tolerance that ca from the bond of the sa nature?
Dane, whose mind was complicated, coughed and quickly changed the subject.
“I heard Mr. Miller lives in the East, but how did you co here? What’s the matter?”
“Oh, Ash said he’d co to check on Grayson to see if he was adjusting well, so I ca with him. I can only see the kids when I’m with Ash......”
A shadow appeared on Koi’s face as he trailed off. When he stopped at the dark atmosphere he had felt for the first ti from the brightly smiling man, he suddenly heard a short beep from his back pocket.
Dane took out his phone and checked the ssage, and sighed without thinking.
[Dear Dane.]
As soon as he saw the first sentence, he stopped reading and quickly flipped through it, then put his phone back in his back pocket and turned his head, then t Koi’s eyes. Dane raised his hand with his palm facing up and shrugged his shoulders, then quickly dropped it on his thigh. He scratched the back of his head with his other hand and opened his mouth with a look of reluctance.
“Grayson sent it. How many tis a day does he send it? Without even thinking about the recipient......”
Realizing belatedly that he had ended up complaining about his child to his parents, he tried to cover it up and smiled. However, Koi’s reaction when he returned was, as expected, different from that of an ordinary person.
“Grayson? He sends you texts? A lot of them?”
Dane nodded his head in bewildernt at Koi’s repeated questions with a surprised face.
“Yes, a little difficult......”
“Oh my gosh, that’s right! I had no idea.”
Coin folded his hands in prayer and blinked with a moved face.
“Honestly, I was a little worried about what it would be like for soone I was dating. I was worried that I would be blunt, but fortunately, I’m okay with that.”
When Dane hesitated at the word ‘blunt,’ Koi added sothing ridiculous.
“Grayson is a man of few words.”
Who are you talking about... ... .
It was clear that it wasn’t the Grayson Miller Dane knew, ✧ NоvеIight ✧ (Original source) but soone with the sa na. Or maybe, as the conspiracy theorist at the fire departnt said, aliens kidnapped Earthlings and then copied their shells to act like them, and one of the aliens wearing those shells was that kid... ... .
What happened to my head?
Dane blinked quickly to regain his senses. He kept feeling weak because of that damned bond or sothing.
No, go back to your usual self.
Of course, going against instinct requires a lot of effort. And Dane hated effort more than anything else. That’s why his choice was set.
“Then I’m tired.......”
As he was about to clean up, Koi’s eyes widened in surprise.
“Oh, I’m sorry. I got too excited because I didn’t have a place to listen to the kids’ stories, right? You must be tired already, so what’s wrong with holding them like this? Since we have the sa personality and you’re Grayson’s lover, I got too emotional.......”
Seeing him apologize, feeling helpless, Dane’s heart weakened again. There are many cases where the way you appear to your parents is different from how you appear to them. No, most of them are. Of course, you’d be curious to see how your child is doing outside.
And, unbelievably, Grayson is known as a reserved person at ho... ... .
In the end, Dane ended up choosing to stay. He picked up his mug and said,
“There’s still so coffee left, so I guess I’ll have to drink this before I go.”
“Really? Thank goodness!”
Koi smiled happily and quickly. He pushed the tray of snacks towards Dane and continued.
“Even if it wasn’t about Grayson, I wanted to talk to Dane a little more. It’s been a long ti since I’ve had a similar trait. Oh, the youngest is also the sa trait as us! If you include Bliss, there are three people with the sa trait around . I’ll introduce Bliss to you next ti. You’ll be really happy.”
Suddenly, Dane rembered that the Miller family had six children. If the youngest is the sa trait, it ans he’s an extre oga. Then, among the five extre alphas, there’s only one extre oga... ... .
Koi smiled awkwardly, perhaps because he had unconsciously made a tired expression.
“That’s right, it was a bit difficult. So I’m also curious about how the kids are doing.......”
Dane stared blankly at Koi’s face.
“You’re very interested in kids.”
Koi smiled bitterly at the slow speech.
“I can’t help but worry a lot. Children are... special after all. But I just believe that my children can do what everyone else can and wait.”
And he muttered as if he was talking to himself.
“If I don’t believe and hold on like that, who will believe my children?”
At first glance, Koi’s eyes seed to be filled with sadness. Dane just stared at him silently, holding his mug in the air.
Ashley stared at Grayson without saying anything. Countless thoughts were going through his mind beneath his cold expression. Grayson, with his usual round face, smiled as if he was dying of joy and waited for a response.
After a few monts of heavy silence, Ashley finally spoke.
“How can I be sure that it’s really ‘feelings’?”
If that were possible, it would be nothing short of a miracle. Ashley had tried so hard to make him ‘accustom’ to emotions. No matter what he did, he couldn’t feel them. Then he had no choice but to beco accustod to them.
But no matter what he did, the child would only react the sa way. Even so, his curiosity was so strong that he couldn’t hold back his curiosity. Although he barely taught Grayson how to hold back his curiosity, he would probably never be able to hold back his thirst for emotions for the rest of his life.
A curiosity that he would never know, but that was impossible to satisfy.
But he had learned that it was ‘scary’? How?
Of course, he couldn’t believe it. Given Grayson’s track record of lying to himself, it was obvious that he couldn’t trust him. But Grayson went even further.
“Yes, and I know what love is.”
He looked at Ashley with a surprisingly arrogant expression, as if he was bragging. Ashley slowly narrowed her eyes when she saw her son’s expression. That was clearly acting. Acting appropriately for the situation, as he had taught him so far.
But how did she know to say sothing like that and make that kind of expression?
Ashley rcilessly trampled Hope as she tried to raise her head. How many tis had Grayson fooled her like this before? And now she was fooled again? Ashley opened her mouth, feeling a self-deprecating feeling that she was just a foolish parent who would blindly turn a blind eye to her own child.
“How did you?”
“I learned it.”
Grayson answered imdiately this ti. And he puffed out his chest and declared proudly.
“From Dane.”
Ashley remained silent this ti too. Dane Striker. The man Grayson introduced as his lover taught him emotions? He would tell her that he was the love of his life and then say he was wrong, but how could he make such a boast?
“This ti, it’s true.”
Grayson said, but this was also a word that had been conceived. Ashley thought that there was no need to waste unnecessary ti with her son.
“Really? Then I can check it out?”
Grayson paused, his confident deanor different from before. Ashley’s eyes narrowed. Then yes.
“If what you said is true, it wouldn’t make a difference if I checked with Dane Striker, right? Or else.”
Ashley asked, speaking slower than usual.
“You lied this ti too?”
