Chapter 6: Such an Adorable and Delicate Child
Jack walked with Oliver towards the entrance of the conference hall. As they passed a lounge, they saw a man in a police uniform scolding a petite woman, also in uniform.
“How many times have I told you? Follow orders when on a mission! You were supposed to guard the venue, but you insisted on chasing after a thief. Kayla, why do you always cause trouble for me?”
Kayla lifted her delicate face and replied righteously, “Captain, I’ve explained before. My mission is to apprehend criminals, not to protect the wealthy!”
Mick glared at her, “Protecting the wealthy? Do you even know who we’re supposed to protect? If anything happens to this person, the entire Seatowne and even the whole Estrica region’s economy will collapse!”
“Oh~~!” Kayla dragged out her response, sounding indifferent.
“You… we’ll deal with this later when we get back!” Mick gave her an exasperated look. “Stay here. I have important matters to handle right now.”
“Wait!” Kayla blocked him, “I have other things to do. I need to go back to headquarters.”NôvelDrama.Org © content.
“What else do you have to do?” Mick glared at her again, “Your most important task today is to stay here and keep watch!”
“But I…”
“Mick?” Jack’s voice came from behind them.
Mick’s head started to ache as he heard the voice. He turned around and looked at Jack’s gentle and handsome face, forcing a smile, “Bro…”
Mick and Jack both belonged to the Robins Family, with Jack being the current head of the family.
“Why are you still here?”
Mick shook his head and replied, “I’m about to return to the station. I was just assigning our deputy leader, Kayla, to oversee the security work here.”
However, Kayla’s eyes were now fixed on the beautiful boy beside Jack!
He looks-exactly like him!
These features, this aura, those violet eyes, that beautiful head of breastnut curls, and most importantly, that arrogant air of “Don’t mess with me,” “Don’t talk to me,” “You foolish mortals”!
He was a miniature version of Ethaniel!
This kid must be Ethaniel’s son!
But wait, if this kid is Ethaniel’s son, then Ethaniel wasn’t lying. Which means-I did arrest the wrong person!
Crap!
Oliver frowned as he noticed Kayla’s expressions shifting from curiosity to shock, and then to utter dismay, all without any attempt to hide it.
Stupid woman!
He turned his head away disdainfully, not wanting to see her anymore.
“Kayla… Kayla!” Mick nudged the bewildered Kayla.
“You…” Kayla swallowed hard, speaking with some difficulty, “Hey, little one, is your last name Han?”
Oliver turned his head, his beautiful purple eyes flashing with intensity, and coldly asked, “Who are you?”
“Is your last name really Han?” Any lingering hope Kayla had vanished, and she awkwardly scratched her head, saying with some difficulty, “Then your dad must also be named Han…”
Duh!
Nonsense!
Mick rolled his eyes. What was Kayla’s brain made of? Besides being able to fight, enjoy fighting, and loving to fight, had her IQ stopped developing at kindergarten?
At the mention of his father, Oliver’s eyes lit up, temporarily shedding his cool demeanor. He ran over and grabbed Kayla’s sleeve, urgently asking, “Where is he?”
“He…” Kayla looked at the stunningly beautiful little boy in front of her, feeling immensely guilty. She couldn’t possibly tell him that she had arrested his father without proper verification.
As Oliver stared at her intently, Kayla gritted her teeth and said, “I invited your dad over to my place for tea.”
A dumbfounded Mick, “…”
A speechless Jack, “…”
An utterly confused Oliver, “…”
Why are they all staring at me?
If I didn’t say I invited him for tea, should I have said I asked him to cooperate with an investigation?
Feeling nervous under the gaze of three males of different ages, Kayla was about to explain further when a beautiful woman came running over.
“Mr. Robins! We have news about the President!” Linda, holding a tablet, ran over breathlessly. “He is currently at the Seatowne North District Police Station. Why is he there? What did you do to him?”
