Levi seemed to agree, "Since you know the stakes, do you still want to deal with the brothers?"
Everly said, "I don't want to either. If I can leave, I will leave immediately."
Levi looked at her for a few seconds without saying a word. Then, he seemed to have thought of something and suddenly laughed, "You are quite good at following the rules. I know that Zane and Maverick are fighting each other, so Zane is controlling you. I don't care about this. But what evidence do you have to prove that your son is one of the Lamont family?"
Only then did Everly realize that Levi was deliberately setting her up.
In fact, Levi was very clear in his heart but he just wanted to see her attitude.
Levi was so boring.
At this age, he didn't know to leave some legacy for the next generation. He was just selfish and thought about controlling everything.
Everly wondered were the people from the Lamont family were all sick.
"What are you talking about?" Everly was not interested in dealing with him. No matter what would happen in the future, she would not let her son acknowledge his ancestors or anything like him. She did not want her son to suffer again because she saw what Levi had done to Maverick and Zane.
"What about that child? I need to confirm that if he really is Maverick's son, we should announce it to the public and find him his origin." Levi said, "This is not something you can decide on your own. I am the head of the Lamont family."
Just as Everly was about to say something, she suddenly thought of something. With a thought, she decided not to say anything. Her words changed, "If you don't believe me, you can check. But do you really want him to find his origin?"
"If it is true, it is necessary. The child has to change his surname to Lamont."
Everly thought about it and said, "I agree to do a DNA test. In any case, it will only take a few days. But if it is true, I hope the announcement can be a public one."
"How do you want to make it public?"
"My son and I have been abroad for five years and have never asked for anything. If you want my son to change his surname to Lamont, shouldn't his identity be completely public? Mr. Lamont, this is about the reputation of the Lamont family."
These words had a certain effect.
Everly had completely given up the idea of using Levi to get a breakthrough.
Now that he thought about it, if he really made it public, there would definitely be a dinner party or something like that. If Maverick was in City C, it meant that he was sure that he was safe and sound. He could not act rashly. It must be because he could not be sure if Zane would hurt him.
What was missing was some help from the inside.
She was not sure what Maverick's current plan was, but anyway, it would be good to let him know that she and her son were safe.
The butler on the side was also listening to their conversation.
He subconsciously glanced at Everly, guessing that she was planning something.
The key was that even if Levi could see her planning, he would still get goaded.
The reputation of the Lamont family was equivalent to Levi's.
For so many years, he had done many heartless things, nothing more than to let himself stand higher and let others look up to the Lamonts.
"Where's the child?" Levi looked at the butler.
The butler hesitated and refused to speak.
Everly strained her ears to hear. She had thought of a way to find out where Edmond was recently, but Zane was too cautious. It was difficult for her to find him. This house was big, and she could not run around.
Under Levi's suppression, the butler had no choice but to take them to Edmond's room.
The villa was very big, layer by layer, and each floor had many rooms.
The butler took them for several minutes before they reached the top floor, the innermost room.
There were two tall and strong men standing at the door. Everly's heart beat faster because she knew that Edmond was definitely inside.
She tried to calm herself. She was sure that at least this till this moment, Edmond was safe, at most, he was locked up. Otherwise, the butler would not have brought them over directly.
As soon as they reached the door, two bodyguards blocked their way.
But when they saw Levi, they were still stunned. The butler said, "Open the door."
The two bodyguards looked at each other. It was obvious that they were unwilling to open the door just like that. Everly couldn't hold it anymore. It was tolerable for her when she knew that she couldn't see her son for now, but now she was behind the door and every second was torture.
"Open the door!"
She stepped forward, unable to restrain her excitement. "My son is in there. I want to see him. He's in this villa anyway. He can't run away! Open the door. I just need to take a look."
The bodyguard was indifferent.
The butler would not speak anymore.
The butler knew his task was to bring these two people up. If the bodyguards refused to open the door, he would have time to inform Zane.
