"Hello, Mr. and Mrs. Lincoln." Just as Stephanie wanted to take Xan away from the cafeteria, they met Zachary, who just came from a basketball game.
Zachary, Ashton, and Timothy were best friends, but Ashton had only introduced Zachary to Stephanie and Steven. The reason was evident not only did Timothy resemble Michael, but they were even relatives.
"Are you going home, Xan?" Zachary looked at Xan, confused. "Don't you still have classes in the afternoon?"
Her eyes were red as she sniffled and said, "My mom... is bringing me home."
Bewildered, Zachary glanced over to Timothy, who was nearby. "Did something happen?"
"Xan isn't feeling well, so I'm bringing her back," Stephanie explained.
Zachary immediately nodded and said, "Alright, Mrs. Lincoln."
As Stephanie dragged Xan out, Xan couldn't help but turn around to look at Timothy.
Stephanie felt that everything was falling apart. Getting involved with a jerk was worse than being discovered by the laboratory's people.
One of Xan's two major crises had hit hard.
"That's weird." Timothy walked over to Zachary, looking perplexed. "Ashton's parents don't seem to like me."
Zachary eyed him and said, "Perhaps it's because you look like a bad guy."
Timothy glanced at him and said in a deadpan voice, "Yeah, right. As if you look anything like a good guy here." "Well, Ashton did say that I look more like a good guy than you. That's why I'm the one he introduced to Mr. and Mrs. Lincoln," Zachary replied smugly.
Timothy got upset. Ashton used to always invite Zachary over to his house, yet he never extended that invitation to him, and that made Timothy feel jealous.
Huffing slightly, he took out his phone and sent Ashton a text, "Your parents came to the university and brought Xan back. Why do Mr. and Mrs. Lincoln seem to dislike me so much?"
Ashton instantly replied by sending him an ID photo of Michael.
Timothy: "Why did you send me a photo of my uncle?"
Ashton: "You both look alike, right?"
Timothy: "Yes. Even my mom said I resemble Uncle Michael a lot."
Ashton: "Michael cheated on my mom when he was younger."
Timothy was speechless. He only felt chills running through his back at that moment.
He immediately replied, "Thanks for saving my life."
Timothy thanked Ashton for not inviting him over to his house. It turned out that Ashton had actually been protecting him.
Ashton replied, "It's all good. Just take care of my parents and sister on my behalf while I'm away."
Timothy shot a mortified look at Zachary. "No wonder I felt the chills when I saw Mrs. Lincoln."
Zachary nudged him and said, "Speaking of which, Xan seems really attached to you. She likes to stay close to you now that Ashton's gone. She wouldn't even come to play basketball with me."
Timothy rolled his eyes at him. "Xan's pretty innocent and simple-minded, so don't read too much into it."
Zachary narrowed his eyes and asked, "Do you like Xan?"
Timothy's ears turn red. "Don't talk nonsense! Mrs. Lincoln might break my legs if she catches wind of this. My dad told me that my uncle fears Mrs. Lincoln the most. He even said that she can take down a hungry wolf with her bare hands."
Zachary swallowed nervously before pulling Timothy away.
"Timothy!" A beautiful young woman came running over at that moment. "I like you. Do you want to date me?"
