Chapter: 455
Perhaps because he was born out of wedlock.
His very existence was seen as a mistake from the very beginning.
In the middle of the night, a black Cayenne eased into the underground parking lot of the
hotel, temporary home to the Cloudwater Town film crew.
“We’ve arrived, sir,” the driver announced, glancing at Tyrone’s resting form reflected in
the rearview mirror.
“Okay,” Tyrone murmured, his eyelids remaining shuttered, his form suggesting sleep.
Detecting the strong scent of alcohol in the car, the driver hesitated, unsure whether to

Two minutes later, a shift in the back seat broke the silence.
Tyrone, blinking lazily, rummaged in his pockets and took out his phone, dialing a number.
The ringing echoed momentarily before a surprised woman’s voice greeted him. “Tyrone?
It’s really you!”
“I’m at the parking lot of your hotel.”
After Tyrone had sent bodyguards to keep an eye on her, Galilea knew that he would not

No longer could she force him into meeting her using her life as a bargaining chip. Instead,

“Tyrone!” she called in the underground parking, her voice echoing in the hush.
Tyrone looked out from the car window, stepping out as she approached.
“Why didn’t you come up?” Galilea inquired with surprise. “I thought you’d never see me
again. Did you drink? Would you like to come up for some coffee?”
“No. I’m here to tell you something,” Tyrone retorted, leaning against the car in the dimly

“What is it?” Galilea inquired, a gnawing sense of unease tugging at her.
“You need to leave. I’ll arrange for you to go overseas. Don’t return.”
“Tyrone, what did you say?” Galilea asked, her eyes wide with disbelief.
