The five men at the dining table were all frozen in place like statues, even their blood flow seemed to have stopped. Don't ask how the hearts of Drake and his four sons were beating as they almost jumped out.
Why is Kylie suddenly asking this? Is it because of the presence of the old man yesterday? Arson asked in his heart. He didn't know what to answer if Drake's youngest daughter asked him directly.
Damn it! I can't find any trace of that man. I wonder what he told Kylie, Arson grumbled again.
After the departure of the old man who approached Kylie before Drake's youngest daughter's return, the head guard who was guarding Kylie immediately contacted Arson to inform him of the man's presence, and without thinking, Drake's eldest son immediately found out the man's identity. But unfortunately, until this moment he could not get the slightest information about the old man. Arson was very sure that there was something worthy of their suspicion, coupled with the questions asked by Kylie at this time.
Jeykey who was on Kylie's right side also glanced at the few men who were also at the dining table, but the four men did not move at all to explain to the youngest.
After breathing repeatedly in his heart trying to calm himself down over his youngest daughter's question, Drake smiled at Kylie.
"Why are you suddenly asking that?" asked Drake trying to control himself to look normal in front of his favorite daughter.
Arson, Carly, Jevin, and Jeykey looked at Drake who looked calm. All four of them knew how their father felt after hearing Kylie's words.
"Answer me, Daddy, am I your biological daughter?" asked Kylie again in a slightly harsh tone, this time looking deeply into Drake's eyes as if searching for something in the man's gray bead.
"Lower your tone in front of Daddy!" Arson ordered in a cold voice and glanced at Kylie.
All of them looked at Arson, as did Drake. They knew that Arson disliked it the most if someone spoke in a high tone in front of him, whoever it was. Especially like this time involving Drake.
"I'm sorry, Dad," Kylie said while bowing her head in guilt. She knew that what she did was wrong, it was also her first time doing it.
Drake smiled back.
"You're Daddy and Mommy's biological child we love you the most because you're our only daughter that Daddy and Mommy have been waiting for," Drake replied. A warm smile cannot be separated from the handsome face of a man who has entered his 50s.
Kylie raised her head again.
"Really?" Kylie asked again.
Question after question from the girl seemed to show that she knew something and did not believe every answer given by Drake.
"What's the matter, what's bothering you, baby, to think that you're not our daughter?" asked Drake in his usual gentle tone, not wanting to misunderstand Kylie if he raised his tone.
Kylie shook her head and smiled.
"I just suspect that I'm not the biological daughter of the Adams family," said Kylie who continued to stare at Drake, while the other four young men just listened silently to the father and daughter conversation.
"What makes you doubt and think that you are not Daddy's daughter?" Drake asked again.
The half-century-old man must solve this problem right now and does not want it to drag on and then make Kylie continue to wonder about such an insignificant issue for Drake.
"I noticed a lot of different things between me and the four of them," Kylie said, pointing at the four young men.
Drake looked at his four children in turn, a look that tried to be okay with his youngest daughter's question.
"Tell Daddy!" Drake told his only daughter.
Kylie took a deep breath and then let it out a little harshly.
The six people who were there waited anxiously, especially Valery who didn't understand this at all.
"You're all tall, while I'm only 165 cm and what's even more different is that your eye color is gray while mine is blue. Very different, besides that Mommy also has green eyes. So if it is also combined between gray and green, there is no way it can turn blue. If I'm different and don't inherit Daddy's eye color, at least my eye color follows Mommy. It's not there at all!" said Kylie who began to see the differences between herself and Drake's four other children.
Drake and his four sons fell silent again, not knowing what to answer. The old man struggled to come up with an answer for his youngest daughter, but Drake hadn't even thought about it before. He should have come up with an answer long ago if Kylie had asked him something like this and he wouldn't have to be such a fool now.
"You're still better like that, even though you're only 165 cm tall, but that's very reasonable for a woman. As for eye color, many people are like that. Take my friend for example, he's much worse than you. His parents have white skin and blue eyes, while his son has dark black skin and dark brown eyes. He thought that he was not his parents' biological child, and even took a DNA test. It turns out that it is true that he is the biological child of his parents and has no effect on anyone's genetics. Her grandparents have the same skin color as he does," said Jeykey, trying to break Kylie's bad thoughts.
Kylie narrowed her eyes at Jeykey's words as if asking if the young man was lying to her.
"Is the friend you're referring to Jackson?" asked Arson without looking at Jeykey and keeping his voice and expression cold.
"You're right. He got frustrated at first thinking about this matter after we told him to do a DNA test with positive results that he was indeed the biological son, that's when he started to get back on his feet. He even cried apologizing to his mother for thinking all kinds of things," Jeykey replied while tilting her head slightly to look at Arson.
Kylie who heard that still looked silent after the words came out of Jeykey's mouth.
"Why is it like that?" said Valery who did not understand, or rather was a little confused.
Carly's wife had often encountered similar cases with her schoolmates, but not as blatant as the friend Jeykey that Drake's fourth son had just mentioned. The people she had met were only slightly different from the other siblings.
"That's what multicultural is. There was a jug in which country, I forget. In one house, the woman has children with different skin colors from the others, and they are even called rainbow people because of the diversity of their children's skin colors," Jeykey said.
It turns out that there is also a benefit that the man often spends time together with his friends, thus getting such information.
"Really?" asked Valery again, still in disbelief.
"Try browsing and finding out on Google!" Jeykey told Carly's wife.
Valery nodded. "After eating, I want to see the news. I think it's very interesting and it's good to know that our children will be different from each other," said Valery, who believed Jeykey's words, but indeed the news spoken by Drake's fourth son was true.
"Many of your Mommy's family are tall like you, some are even shorter. As for eye color, Daddy's grandmother's grandmother also has different eye colors. Later after Daddy comes home from work if you still don't believe me, Daddy will find a picture of them. Hopefully, it's still neatly stored in Daddy's study," Drake said with a smile. The half-century-old man did not want his youngest daughter to think anything of their relationship.
Kylie quickly looked at her father and shook her head vigorously.
"No need, Dad. I'm so relieved to hear your answer. I was just thinking that I'm not your son because of such glaring differences, but it turns out there's something even worse than me, which is his friend Jeykey," Kylie refused with a wide smile. She felt bad for her father as if he was accusing her of being an adopted child in the Adams family.
Kylie thought that if she were an adopted child, it would not be possible for Drake and the four young men around him to love her as much as they did. There would certainly be distance and differences in affection between them, but Kylie never felt that way. She is more everything than Drake's other four sons.
"No problem baby, that's normal. Moreover, you are the only daughter in this family, so you must think about all kinds of things. So now throw away your thoughts because you are Daddy's favorite daughter! Daughter of pride," said Drake reiterating that Kylie is his child.
"Ah, I'm not recognized and not loved. Well, it doesn't matter," Jeykey said suddenly and made them all stare at the man who was still a student.
"Has your hearing started to deteriorate? Daddy mentioned Princess. Are you a woman?" asked Carly with a sour face towards Jeykey.
"I think he just had a s*x change," Jevin replied.
"I think he's been wanting to be a woman for a long time!" Arson said with a sardonic look at the man sitting next to Kylie.
"I was just joking," Jeykey said, folding his face as his three siblings took his words too seriously. He was just joking to liven up the atmosphere that seemed tense due to Kylie's previous question.
"But it seems to be true what you guys said, he's going to change s*x because he keeps asking me about the latest tank top models," Kylie said as she looked one by one at the rest of her family.
Jeykey widened his eyes as Kylie, instead of defending herself, responded to the other three men's words.
"What a cruel slander! I'm really sad to hear it," Jeykey said as he put his hand on her chest with a face made like a very oppressed person.
Laughter broke out among them after the tension created by Kylie.
