Divorced and Pregnant My New Life with a Billionaire Drives My Ex Crazy novel Chapter 683

Conrad wasn’t taking any chances. He was determined to get to the bottom of what was happening with his two sons, no matter how much effort it took.

Tatum gave a confident shake of his head. “Kane’s fine. I’m sure of it. Right now, only Derek is showing any signs of poisoning. I even checked Kane’s test results myself, so there’s nothing to worry about.”

Hearing this, Conrad finally let out a deep breath, relief washing over his face. “Thank you. The Sullivan family owes both you and Ms. Morgan a huge debt. I promise, I’ll help you however I can.”

Madison waved him off right away. “Please, Mr. Sullivan, you don’t need to be so formal. This is just what I’m supposed to do. Honestly, most of the credit goes to Tatum.”

Tatum just shrugged, hands in his pockets, his voice cool. “It wasn’t a big deal. Wiona, I actually came here today because I wanted to talk about something with you. About the Blue family. Could we have a moment?”

Conrad nodded and quickly gathered his sons and his mother, quietly leaving the room for Wiona and Tatum to talk alone. Madison followed their lead and slipped out as well.

As soon as they were alone, Tatum got straight to the point. “Mateo wanted me to pass on a message. Our grandparents are turning eighty next month, and he was wondering if you’d be willing to come back to the Blue family for the celebration.”

Wiona hesitated, her voice soft. “So… have Grandma and Grandpa accepted me?”

Tatum shook his head. The flicker of hope on Wiona’s face faded right away.

She’d told herself over and over not to expect too much. Still, hearing it out loud stung a little more than she thought it would. She tried to brush it off. Family isn’t something you can force, after all. In that moment, she reminded herself not to care so much.

Tatum noticed her reaction and, for once, his usual calm slipped. “Don’t get me wrong. It’s not that they haven’t accepted you. The truth is, Mateo and the others haven’t told them about you yet.”

Wiona frowned, confused. “Why not? Wasn’t that the whole point of their trip home?”
