章 57: Chapter 57: Surname

The weight of their serious conversation still hung heavy in the air, even though several minutes had passed. Landon paced back and forth in the kitchen, lost in thought as he spoke on his phone.

When Yohan requested an investigation into his parents, Jun also suggested that Landon look into Yoh's birth certificate. If it turned out to be true that Yohan's uncle and aunt were listed as his parents, then Jun suspected the birth certificate would be fake.

Coincidentally, Neo called a few minutes later causing Landon to head over to the kitchen to answer the call.

Meanwhile, Yohan stared at the cake in front of him with sparkling eyes - its frosting gleaming under soft light bulbs like spun sugar dreams. A wave of warmth washed over him at Landon's thoughtful gesture; it seemed like Landon had baked it earlier, just for him. Jun sat quitely across him, a flicker of something unreadable in his eyes as he observed Yohan's delight.
