    <b>As </b><b>they </b>approached, they noticed that Damon looked upset.


    N raised an eyebrow and asked, “Mr. Sumner, have you been waiting too long?”


    Damon suppressed his discontent and forced a smile. No, let’s head inside.”


    Just then, Mason suddenly looked up at N and said, “Mommy, I need to pee. Can youe with me?<b>” </b>N?velDrama.Org is the owner.


    N nodded. “Sure.”


    “I’ll take Buddy to the restroom. You two go ahead,” she said, taking Mason by the hand and walking away.


    Once N and Mason were gone, Damon’s expression turned icy. “Mr. Raynor, we’re here at the zoo as a family of three. What’s your purpose in showing up?”


    Oliver smiled, but his eyes remained cold. “Mr. Sumner, the recent troubles with the Raynor Group–that’s your doing, isn’t it?<b>” </b>


    Damon didn’t deny it. “Just giving you a little reminder not to interfere with our family time.”


    A sneer shed in Oliver’s eyes. “Do you really think N will forgive you? What kind of family do you think you have?


    “I asked Buddy, and he’s fine with me being here. If we’re being honest<b>, </b>Mr. Sumner, you’re the outsider, aren’t you?”


    “Don’t forget, Buddy is my biological son!” Damon snarled, his face darkening as his eyes turned stormy.


    “You don’t need to emphasize that, Mr. Sumner. I just want you to understand: if you want topete with me for N, then bring it on. I won’t back down,” Oliver replied.


    Damon chuckled coldly. “I admire your confidence, but sometimes, <i>too </i>much confidence bes


    arrogance.”


    “Let’s wait and see,” Oliver said.


    As they spoke, N returned with Mason.


    Seeing the two men still standing there, she looked surprised. “Why haven’t you gone in yet?”


    Oliver smiled and stepped forward. “We were waiting for you and Buddy.”


    N nced between the two of them, sensing a strange tension in the air but unable to pinpoint what was off.


    “Well, let’s go then,” she said.


    They walked into the zoo together. Just after entering and walking a bit, they spotted the pandas.


    Mason’s face lit up with excitement as he let go of N’s band and ran ahead. “Mommy, it’s a giant panda! I love giant pandas!”


    N hurried to catch up, warning him, “Buddy, slow down! Be careful not to fall.”


    When they reached the panda exhibit, Mason couldn’t see over the barrier in front of him.

    <b>Just </b><b>as </b><b>N </b><b>was </b><b>about </b><b>to </b><b>lift </b><b>him</b><b>, </b>two <b>male </b>voices <b>echoed </b><b>in </b>unison <b>from </b>behind her<b>. </b><b>“</b><b>I’ll </b><b>do </b><b>it</b>.”


    <b>Turning </b><b>around</b>, she found both men looking at her, and she <b>felt </b>an <b>added </b>weight of pressure.


    <b>Both </b><b>Damon </b>and Oliver were tall and attractive<b>, </b>easily catching the eye of the crowd,


    Noticing that several people were watching, N frowned slightly. “No <b>need</b>, I can lift him myself.”


    With that, she turned and picked Mason up.


    The two men exchanged nces, each sensing apetitive tension in the other’s eyes.


    Damon stepped up to N’s left and said, “Let me carry him. You’re small, and you’ll get tired after <b>a </b>while.


    Oliver moved to her right and softly said, “N, let me carry Buddy so he can see the giant pandas. It’s crowded here, and I don’t want you and Buddy to get bumped.”


    N was at a loss for words.


    After a few moments of silence, she decided to stay quiet. Talking to either of them would only offend the other, so it seemed best to remain silent.


    From then on, whether it was buying water or taking photos for Mason, Damon and Oliver were overly eager to help.
