Chapter 732 Ava brought over a cup of black coffee. Everett glanced up, took a sip, and replied casually, "I've already got a son and a daughter. Mateo is top-notch in every way.

She was annoyed, but she knew Everett et all grown and independent, didn't respond well to pressure. She had to be gentle.
