Chapter 432


    Chapter 432


    Larissa had not even begun to reject the offer when Dn scooped Aster into his arms, turning around


    and speeding away with haste. He ignored every shout of Larissa’s. With the way he acted, one would


    think he was a child trafficker or something.


    Though Larissa was annoyed, she could not do anything to Dn. Spitting curses internally, she ran


    after him. Kevan matched his pace to hers.


    Larissa did not want to talk to him, and Kevan had to do his best to pretend that they were not familiar


    with each other. They remained silent, and only the sound of footsteps could be heard.


    Dn drove them to a private dining restaurant that was not far from where they were. Unlike other


    widespread restaurants in which anyone could dine, this was a restaurant with a strict member-only


    system. Moreover, even if one was a member, one had to make a booking at least a day before the day


    of dining and decide the course with the chel.


    Dn had clearly made a booking early on. He gave his name, and the waiter led them to a private


    room. The decor here had a colonial style, probably because the mansion rented by the restaurant


    belonged to some general in the colonial era.


    Dn and Aster sat together. They kept chatting without stopping-naturally engaging in topics that


    Aster was interested in


    Aster was a fan of superheroes. Although he was young and did not know a lot of words, he had seen


    and read many superheroics and movies. His favorite superhero was Superman. From a young


    age, he loved wearing the red cape Larissa bought for him and darting about the house, shouting about


    how he was going to defeat the bad guys. He could even memorize the plot of the Supermanics.


    However, the other kids this age-regardless of where they were from, were not interested in


    superheroes. They preferred SpongeBob or Peppa Pig. It was only after meeting with Dn that Aster


    was able to broach the subject with another person,


    Dn was only a casual fan of superheroes. He would watch any movies that were screened in


    cinemas and was aware of the world- building of the superhero universe as well as the superheroes’


    rtionships with each other. But he was not necessarily well-versed about everything. As he chatted


    with Aster, he immediately noticed how meager his knowledge was. In order to not embara ss himsell,


    Dn changed the subject. “Aster, do you like superhero figurines?”


    Aster excitedly nodded. “Yes! I really love them!” But they were too expensive, so he could not bear to


    make Larissa buy them for him.


    Pointing at Kevan, Dn said smugly, “Uncle Kevan’s home has a lot! Next time he can take you there


    for a look!”


    Larissa frowned. “Don’t lie to a kid” She knew that Kevan did not have any superhero figurines at home


    “He’s not lying.” Kevan spoke up. He was watching her quietly, his eyes lilled with sincerity.


    Dn exined. “The figurines arent at Kevan’s current residence. It’s normal that you have not seen


    them. Those were his childhood joys. It was probably because he thought that they were shameful to


    have, so he dumped them all in a property that he did not live in.”


    Larissa, however, had a thought. She asked Kevan. “How do you remember things from the past?”


    Kevan and Dn froze for two seconds. But as they had experienced much in life, they did not show


    how panicked they were. Kevan spoke calmly. “I’ve been to all my properties in Bartham-to understand


    just how many assets I had.”


    This reason did not give Larissa cause to suspect him. The only thing she thought of was how tired he


    must have been to go to every single property of his in the city! This was probably a rich person’s


    problem


    Because of what Dn said. Aster turned his attention to Kevan at once.N?velDrama.Org: owner of this content.
