Chapter 215 Just a Child After All

After exchanging glanacs, they followed Peacock out of the door understandingly. “He finally couldn’t hold it in anymore in his father’s embrace,” Python remarked, Leopard added, “His performance is impressive enough. He’s just so young–of course he would be terrified. Damn! That woman is a f*cking lunatic! If we were late, I really can’t imagine what would have happened.”

Python replied, “Let’s stop talking about this. He seems to care a lot about his pride. Let’s pretend that we don’t know about this.” Leopard hummed in agreement before eyeing Peacock, who was silent all this while. “Hey, weren’t you very talkative just now? Why are you so quiet?’ Python chuckled gently.

“Do you even need to ask? Look at her eyes that were staring at Silas intently. I bet even her soul has been taken away by him.” Peacock sniffed hard, finally reacting to them. “Goddamn! He is really handsome!” Leopard looked excited as he spoke, “Look at yourself. Wily Rabbit’s mom is also very beautiful.” Peacock glared at him in dissatisfaction. “She’s not just beautiful. She’s breathtakingly stunning!” Then she changed her tone. “I used to think that I was the most beautiful woman in the world. Now only I know that there’s always someone better than you. No wonder their child is so good-

looking.” Python laughed. “Can you give up now?” Looking gloomy, Peacock asked, “Why couldn’t my mom give birth to me a few years later?” Python replied, “You have gone too far.” Leopard also added, “You’re hopeless now.” In the conference room, Silas held South’s cheeks as he asked gently, “Did she hit you?” South shook his head. “No.” Silas didn’t rush him into anything and held him as they sat on the couch. “You can tell me the truth,” he coaxed. With tears welling in his eyes, South pouted stubbomly, refusing to cry. Silas patted his back gently to console him. “I won’t tell mommy.” South sniffed. “She pinched my face and my arms. She also threw me on the floor and held a knife in her hands, saying that she was going to disfigure me. After some time, she said she was going to throw me off the building and die with me. B-But I didn’t cry; not even once!” He still tried to look tough even though tears were welling in his eyes. Silas felt so sorry for him that his eyes burned in pain. His body shook as he gently consoled South, “Don’t be afraid. Everything’s fine now. I promise you that this won’t happen again.” South gently listed his chin with a haughty expression on his face. “But her plan failed because I had this. I called the headquarters immediately, and they arrived quickly. I asked them to strangle her. Actually, Peacock and Leopard hit her until she was on the floor.” With that, he pulled out a necklace with a ruby stone on it. “As soon as I press this, it means that I’m in danger. There’s a location tracking device in it, so they figured out where I was quickly,” he explained. Silas caressed his hair as he exclaimed in a hoarse voice, “You’re so smart, son!” He wanted to say something else, but his heart hurt so much that he could not utter another word. If they hadn’t arrived just in time, I can’t imagine what would have happened. As if he had sell Silas’s pain, South patted his back with his little hand. With a young, childlike voice, he said, “I’m fine. Don’t tell mommy about this! She’ll cry!” Silas tightened his embrace on South and nodded. Why is my son so mature? He’s not even seven-he’s at an age to rebel and throw tantrums, yet he is already so thoughtful. He knows that he is a boy who should protect his mother, but he forgets that he is just a child after all.
