Chapter 838

Timothy suspected that Mr. Q was probably a source of contention between Stefan and Renee, so he avoided asking anything else about him.

Adie, on the other hand, was a child. Even though he had tremendous intelligence, he had little understanding of relationships and continued to battle for Mr. Q’s justice. “I disagree with you marrying Bad Daddy, Mommy. You should get married to Q – He’s a thousand times better than Bad Daddy!”

Pouting, the little boy fiercely declared, “If you don’t marry Q, I won’t acknowledge you anymore!”

Timothy was perplexed. He grinned as he affectionately rubbed the boy’s head. “Can you explain why you like Q? How is he superior to your father?”

“Q aced all of my tests. He cooks well, talks kindly, sings well, makes mommy laugh, and most importantly, he has a house full of unique treasures. If Mommy is upset, she will go inside for a stroll and immediately feel better!”

“Treasures?”

“Yes. It’s Water Dock’s treasure house. Everyone admires and fears him. He’s incredible!” When Adie said this, everyone realized what he meant.

“Oh, it’s him.”

Francine boldly raised her chin and added, “Do you know that he’s an evil man who your Daddy once defeated?”

“A few years ago, he was defeated by the Hunt family and hid at Water Dock,” Alexander said mockingly. “He now dares to interfere in my son and daughter-in-law’s relationship! He’s inviting his own demise. I’m going to give him a lesson right now!”

There was a major disagreement between the Hunt family and Carmine Pawnshop that year. They were like two opposing forces that couldn’t stand each other. Following that, Stefan conquered Mr. Q and injured half of his face.

Mr. Q leapt into the water to escape and had never been seen since. Stefan took over Carmine Pawnshop as Mr. Q a few months later. Water Dock became more tranquil after the war, and Carmine Pawnshop ceased conducting illegal business.

The Night Demon had perished.

“He should’ve been killed a few years ago,” Timothy muttered, looking murderous. “However, Maurice decided to let him go, so he is still alive. Otherwise, we’d have to kill him.”

“My grandfather knew him?” Renee was taken aback when she heard this.

“Yes. They know one other, and he and the Everheart family had a business relationship. But I have no idea what occurred after that.” Timothy was old and couldn’t recall much of the past, nor did he want to.

“He must have known about me a long time ago, but why didn’t he tell me about it?” She was filled with questions about Mr. Q.

“I’m not sure what his motivation is for wanting to get close to you, but he’s not a decent or simple guy.

Get as far away from him as you can,” Timothy instructed Renee.

“You don’t get it, Great-grandpa! It doesn’t matter if Q is a good person or not. As long as he’s good to Mommy, he’s good to me,” Adie said, looking up at the elderly man. “If Bad Daddy passes my exam like Q, I’ll support his relationship with Mommy.”

“Test me as you like,” Stefan responded carelessly after hearing his comments. “I’ll show you that no one else is a better fit for your mother than me!”

“Alright. I’m hoping you won’t let me down.” Adie spoke like an adult as he reached an arrangement with Stefan.

The father and son bumped fists, and for the first time, the sight of Stefan’s massive hand colliding with Adie’s petite one seemed to be peaceful.

Four generations of the family gathered together that day and ate supper amicably.
