Cross Roads

Chapter 311

On Christmas Eve, Molly found herself in a rather awkward situation.

She had been standing on the roadside, waiting for a car to take her home, when suddenly, a sapphire blue

Lamborghini sped towards her. Terrified, Molly thought someone was trying to kill her. But then, the car

screeched to a halt, and a familiar small figure jumped out.

“Molly, why did you call the way to Carlorium? I've been looking for you all day. So, you and my dad secretly

chere on vacation... How could you forget about me?” Andy had tracked her down to Caclorium.

Molly's face flushed with embarrassment at the child's innocent question. “No, it’s not what you think...” she

stammered, desperately looking to the man beside her for support. But Scott, with a gentle smile, just patted his

son’s head and said, “We're going hnow. He offered no further explanation.

Meanwhile, Vincent, who had driven Andy there, smiled and gave Molly an even more suggestive look. Molly

thought to herself, ‘Great, now there's no way to clear this up.

Since Vincent had driven there, Molly and Scott didn’t need to wait for a car. However, driving back from

Caclorium to Havencrest would take at least four hours, whereas Scott and Molly had flown over by plane.

“Nothing better to do?” Scott asked as he got into the driver's seat of Vincent's flashy Lamborghini.

“You think | enjoy driving so many miles by myself? It’s all because of your son. He was worried sick, saying

it while driving, quite miserable. Vincent complained, stretching and relaxing in the passenger seat. He gave a

cheeky glance at the rearview mirror and grinned. “Did not expect you two to actually be together

Vincent was blunt, and Scott, driving calmly, raised an eyebrow but said nothing. Sitting in the back seat, Molly

overheard. their conversation and felt increasingly embarrassed.

“Molly, I've finished half of the dominoes you gave me... Andy, also in the back seat, scooted closer to Molly,

suddenly much more affectionate after not seeing her for a few days.

“You've already done 5,000 pieces?” she asked.

Andy nodded proudly. “It’s easy. | just find sspace in my roam and work on it a bit each day?

“I was worried 10,000 pieces would be too hard,” she said.

Andy, getting even more excited, responded, “I'll finish them all by tomorrow.”

Molly smiled and pinched his cheek. “You're so amazing.”

“It's really simple,” Andy said, confidently accepting the praise.

The two men in the front stayed silent. Vincent cast a meaningful glance at Scott, who was driving, and

mouthed, “Looks like you'll be working overtime.”

Scott kept his eyes on the road, revealing a hint of resignation.

His son was too boastful. The dominoes were painstakingly assembled by him and Andy, who had worked late

into the night to get halfway done. Yet, Andy claimed he could finish them all by tomorrow. Scott thought his son

was getting more shameless by the day, Scott intended to drive heven a bit hard. But given the traffic on

Christmas, Vincent wasn’t willing to. “I'm hungry, Vincent, sitting in the passenger seat, yelled without any

regard for his image.

In the backseat, Andy had secretly stashed away a bag of fries and handed it to Molly as if to please her. “Molly,

these are for

you. They're a bit cold but still tasty.”

Tm not hungry. You eat them,” she replied.

Vincent turned his head, glaring at them, but Andy, in his childish voice, said, “We're men, and men aren't afraid

of hunger.”

What did that mean? If men weren't afraid of hunger, were those who were not men? Vincent thought, feeling a

pang of pain. This little boy was so cunning at such a young age.

“Scott, this is the good son you've raised, Vincent grumbled. He had driven Andy around all day, yet the boy had

Vincent was full of resentment, thinking, Scott is a schemer, and Andy is a little schemer. They're all deceitful.

Damn, if 1 had known. | wouldnt have meddled in their family affairs. My Christmas is ruined.

Turning a corner, Scott casually retorted, “Vincent, if you're so capable, go have a kid yourself.”

“If I had a son, he wouldn't be so terrifying. Vincent muttered under his breath.

Understanding Vincent's feelings, Molly interjected, “Children de take after their parents. If | had a child, they'd

be well- behaved... She couldn't help but critique.

“Ah, you don’t like me?” Andy, quick-witted, looked at her with his big, bright eyes, a bit anxious.

Scott seemed to care about Molly’s casual remark and glanced at her sharply through the rearview mirror.

Feeling awkward. Molly quickly corrected herself, “I meant if Stephanie had a child, they’d be very lively and

tough...”

Vincent, horrified, imagined it and sighed, “Stephanie... That would be more than just terrifying.”

Everyone paused for a second and then burst into laughter.

To avoid Vincent's constant yelling, Scott wisely found a restaurant along the road to have a meal before

continuing.

While waiting for the food, Molly watched Vincent's comical eating and teased. “Why didn’t you go out for

Christmas?”

On a festive and romantic day like Christmas, a guy like Vincent should be surrounded by girls.

“Weren't you celebrating with Dominick and the others?” Molly asked casually.

Vincent suddenly stopped reaching for the fries, his expression complex as he glanced at her, “I'm not close to

him. After that, he continued eating, but his expression soured.

Molly was surprised, thinking Vincent must have fallen out with Dominick.

She wanted to gossip, “How is Dominick doing lately?”

“You don’t need to worry about Chloe. She's crazy,” Vincent continued. “Scott married her because of his

Molly was momentarily stunned: “Scott has a brother?” She hadn't heard of it, and Scott never mentioned it.

Vincent glanced at Scott and Andy, who were waiting in line for food, and then back at her. After a long pause, he
