Tempest raged, yelling, "You could always wait for Baby Zetty if you liked her, just like how Sir Ares had waited for Madam to grow up back then."

Finn exclaimed in an exaggerated manner, "Foster Father is only six years older than Madam. I'm 12 years older than Baby Zetty. She's just like a little baby to me. I can never regard her as my life partner." Tempest pointed at the door. "Tammy, the girl outside the door, is just a kid too, isn't she?"

"She's an adult, at least," Finn said.

Tempest stood up. "I understand now. You like Tammy, not Baby Zetty, right?"

Finn fell silent.

Tempest walked toward the door, and when he got there, he suddenly turned back to say, "I think you ought to know that Baby Zetty is sick."

A flash of panic emerged on Finn's good-looking face. Concern was written all over his face. "What illness is it? Is it serious?"

Tempest replied, "Binge eating disorder."

Finn's eyes were filled with confusion. "Why does she suddenly have a binge eating disorder? She was fine,

wasn't she?"

Tempest's lips parted, and eventually, he changed his mind. He replied casually, "Well, you know as well that mental illness runs in the Severe family. Baby Zetty may have inherited it." Finn was grief-stricken.

He had raised Baby Zetty for many years, and the two had relied on each other during those times. Like a father, he had devoted all his time to love and care for Baby Zetty with the only hope that she would grow up healthily and happily.

When he heard that Baby Zetty was sick, he felt as though someone had left a gash in his heart, leaving him heartbroken.

"How did she start binge eating?" Finn clenched his fists unconsciously to stop himself from shaking.

Tempest looked at the agonizing expression on Finn's face and knew that he had figured out he was the reason for Baby Zetty's misery. Tempest could not bring himself to sprinkle salt on Finn's wound and chose to leave in anger.

After Tempest left, Finn grew devastated and crestfallen.

He stood up slowly and limped outside.

Tammy saw him and hurried over to help him.

"Where are you going, Finn?" More often than not, Tammy would try to drive Finn away due to her financial constraints, but Finn would pester her and refuse to leave every time.

Today, Tammy was not the one driving Finn away and he was the one who offered to leave instead.

Tammy felt a sense of disappointment for some reason.

Finn leaned against the door. When he saw the disappointed look on her face, he suddenly laughed.

"What? You don't want me to leave?" Finn teased.

Tammy blushed with shame as she looked at him, nodding coyly.

Finn explained, "Don't worry, I'll be back soon."

Tammy was delighted to hear that he was coming back.

Finn opened the door and walked out.

He took a cab downstairs and came straight to Grand Asia.

Grayson and Storm looked at him, both of them behaving exceedingly cold and indifferent.

"Well, well, I thought you could no longer free yourself after throwing yourself into the tender arms of a woman. It didn't take you long to come back, eh?" Grayson teased him coldly. Finn said in a forlorn tone, "You're all blaming me for hurting Baby Zetty, aren't you?"
