Chapter 792:
They both paused, clearly taken aback by what Ellis had just revealed.
“Have you won the woman over yet?” Kendra asked, genuinely curious.
Caldwell’s face took on a grim seriousness. “He has a crush on someone?”
“You didn’t know?” Kendra asked.
“You knew?”
“I did. Ellis textedabout it,” Kendra said, answering Caldwell’s question.
After that line was dropped, Caldwell’s usually composed, handsfeatures twisted in obvious irritation as he
glared at Ellis. “You're something else!”
What kind of son was this? Keeping his father in the dark.
“Not my fault you never accepted my friend request,” Ellis replied casually.
Caldwell nearly snapped back—couldn’t you just callwith a new number?

“Don’t go around claiming you're my son. | swear, I'll donate every asset we have tomorrow! | won't leave you a

“Go ahead, | won't stop you,” Ellis said lazily. “Even if | don’t work, she’ll support me. But if you donate
everything, how are you planning to take Mom on those trips you keep promising her?”
Caldwell, so furious he couldn't hold back, abruptly ended the video call.
Kendra, still eager to talk, glared at him, clearly displeased by his tic behavior.

“You can adopt if you want, but | only have one son, and that’s Ellis,” Kendra replied firmly.
