Chapter 65: Take Advantage of the Situation

Zealous returned to his house. He wanted to tell Viona what he heard, but he was also worried about Viona's reaction. As Viona had been through a lot until drowning with insanity, Zealous didn't want to put more burden on Viona's mind. 

Giselda saw Zealous and asked, "So, what did Father announce?"

Zealous sighed and shook his head. "Father announced Lilly as his."

"What?!"

"He told everyone that Lilly's surname is Gooner, not Claude. I don't know how to tell this to Mommy," Zealous said.

"If we tell her, it won't guarantee Mommy won't be furious too." Zealous kissed Giselda's top head. "You know, I still feel guilty until now."

"About what?"
