I told Jameson everything before he married meeverything.

In fact, he even knows I slept with Reginald.

And get thisback in the day, your dad and Jameson were actually close friends!" Andrew thought this was pure chaos.

He rubbed his temples, feeling a pounding ache behind his eyes.

His head throbbedlike, really throbbed.

please don't tell me..." Andrew said slowly, dread creeping into his voice, "...that Lauren isn't actually Mr.

Rhodes' daughter, but my dad's?" The second the words left his mouth, Tiana spat to the side and snapped, "You little punk, what the hell is wrong with you? I may be crazy, but do you really think I'd let Jameson raise another man's kid and not tell him? "Relax.

You're worried Lauren might turn out to be your half-sister and boomno more romance, right? Well, don't worry.

Lauren has nothing to do with Reginald.

She's mine and Jameson's." Andrew let out a long sigh of relief.

"Thank God.

"Life really plays cruel jokes, huh? | fell for Reginald so hard back then.

And now, all these years later, Lauren's fallen for you.

It's like the universe is punishing me all over again." Seeing the heaviness in her smile, Andrew straightened up.

As the front steps of the Rhodes residence came into view, Tiana suddenly buried her face in her hands and muttered, "About earlier, when I hugged you...

just forget it happened, alright? "T wasn't thinking clearly.

I saw the totem on your chest and...

I thought of him.

I mistook you for Reginald at that moment.

That's all." ---- Andrew nodded quickly.

"Got it.

Totally understand." Tiana's cheeks flushed again, and she mumbled under her breath, " Honestly, you've got a damn fine figure, kid.

Just as good as he was back then..." Andrew grinned.

"Well, technically speaking, that makes me your junior.

So if you ever feel the need to reach outhey, as your future son-in-law, I won't say no!" "Get lost!" Tiana yelled, scandalized.

"You little brat, I swear, you so much as think another indecent thought, and I'll rip your face off, got it?" Andrew wisely shut his mouth, wondering what Tiana was even imagining.
