A Mysterious Man novel Chapter 153

"Shut up and get out of my face."

Kevin loses his patience when he hears "back then".

Damien isn't surprised to hear him say that. He just shrugs and says, "Mr. Quinn, you'll look for me."

Kevin sneers. After watching Damien leave, he leans against the wall powerlessly.

He skillfully lights a cigarette. He has never smoked in front of Sunny, but he would do it by himself when he is in a bad mood.

He watches as the smoke that just came out of his mouth flies into the air and then slowly disappears into nothingness. Except for the nasty smell, no traces of it are left.

He sighs.

He extinguishes the cigarette and takes a deep breath before walking back in. There are some things he needs to face.

After Kevin turns around and leaves, Sunny is at a loss for what to do.

But she doesn't know where to go, so she can only look around aimlessly.

After a while, Sunny is somewhat disappointed. She watches as people leave. She is also ready to stand up and get out of here.

Just then, she is pressed down onto her seat again by someone, and she has no time to resist.

"Who is it?"

She looks back angrily, only to find a familiar figure.

"Kevin!"

Sunny looks at Kevin, somewhat aggrieved and annoyed, and then proudly turns her head and looks ahead, sitting still.

"Honey, don't stay mad. I shouldn't have done that to you just now."

Kevin says as he waves a packing box, saying, "Let's go. Take Macie. We're going back together."

"Wait. What about Grandpa?"

Hearing that, Kevin looks not far away and says, "What do you think?"

Sunny looks at the same direction and sees that the old master is sitting next to a nice-looking old woman. They are chatting and laughing.

...

"Where is Macie?"

Kevin glances around and says, "There she is. Let's go."

Sunny walks in the direction he points, and discovers that Macie is talking to a little boy blushing.

"Macie, we're going home."

Sunny calls out to her. But to her surprise, not only does Macie ignore her, but she even turns her back to her.

...

The boy is sensible and points at Sunny after he hears that, saying, "Is this your mother? So your name is Macie."

Macie gets shy for some reason. She runs to Sunny and hides herself behind her. Then, she makes a face at the boy.

"Say goodbye to him. We're going home."

Macie waves her hand at him as she was told, and then follows Sunny out.

"Mom, I didn't mean to ignore you just now."

Sunny nods and says, "I know."

Noticing that Kevin is here, Macie becomes happy again. "Dad, I just ran into a friend from kindergarten!"

Kevin squats down to make direct eye level contact with Macie, saying, "Then can you introduce him to Dad next time?"

Macie nods shyly and replies, "Then let's go home."

Kevin smiles as he holds Sunny in one hand and picks up Macie with the other. They walk over to say goodbye to the old master before going home.

"Aren't we going to let Kelly and Ellison know that we are leaving?"

Kevin remembers how he is played by his brother just now, and a cold smile appears on his face. "They are gone already."

Are they? When did it happen? Why didn't Sunny notice it?

Sunny tries to remember for a long time, but is sure that she didn't see them leave.

"Alright then, forget it."

Under Kevin's deception, Sunny soon forgets her bestie and is dragged out of this place.

"I'll fetch the car. Wait for me here. It's cold outside."

When she gets in the car, Sunny takes off her high heels and puts on the clothes she feels most comfortable.

"Changing so quickly? I haven't even had time to admire you."

Kevin smiles wickedly from the side. "But it's fine. I will when we arrive home."

Sunny glances at Macie who is asleep in the back seat, and then heaves a sigh of relief, saying, "It's inappropriate to say things like that in front of Macie."

As she says that, she puts down the back of the chair and lies on it. Inhaling, she says, "It is like I had just fought a war. I am so exhausted."

Hearing that, Kevin glances sideways at Sunny and says, "How about I provide you with special services?"

Sunny thinks of that dirty exercise and sits up, replying, "We are so tired tonight. Rain check?"
