A Mysterious Man novel Chapter 88

When the young girl sees the handsome man, she can’t help but look straight at him and blurts out, “You are so handsome!”

Kevin can’t help but laugh, “You really are a naughty little girl, did you get hurt?”

She immediately stands up, bounces up and down and uses actions to tell the handsome man in front of her that she is ok.

“As long as you’re ok then that’s all that matters but don’t go running off on your own. I still have something I need to do so I must leave now. This is my business card; if something happens then you can give me a call, ok?”

The little girl obediently steps aside while holding the business card in her hand, and then waves at him and says, "Goodbye Kevin."

Kevin nods his head at her and then drives off.

The little girl murmurs to herself, “Mom, I just saw dad.”

At this moment there is a voice suddenly behind her, “Macie Ellen, why did you run off!”

Macie turns around and glances at the person who has appeared behind her, her shoulders stiffen, “Baron, I made a mistake.”

The person who has come over is Baron. He looks at the license plate number of the car that just left but doesn’t say anything, instead he uses his hand to stroke Macie’s head, “Don’t worry, I just didn’t keep a close enough eye on you, let’s go now.”

Macie is still a child and after she is soothed by Baron the rain quickly turns to sunshine. She obediently takes his hand and says, “Have mum and dad come back yet?”

“They are on the airplane, what’s wrong, do you miss them?” There is some menace in his voice and it seems if she nods her head to this question then he will suddenly turn hostile towards her.

However Macie is a very clever child, therefore in her hand she tightly grips Baron’s fingers, “With you here, then I don’t miss them.”

“What do you want to eat for lunch?”

“KFC!”

“No!”

“McDonalds!”

“Keep dreaming!”

“Pizza Hut!”

“You might as well save your breath!”

“Then, how about you make some food?”

“Sure, let’s go home.”

Macie’s face crumples after she hears this, she really don’t want to eat Baron’s food.

Baron lowers his head and notices her distorted expression, “Is there something wrong?”

“No, I’m just hungry, let’s go home now.”

Baron thinks about the license plate number of the car he just saw, “Did you encounter a rather strange person just now?”

Macie carefully thinks back, that handsome man can’t be a strange person because he is her real father. Therefore she shakes her head and says, “I didn’t see anyone.”

“Alright, just be more careful from now on. No one is like you who is just four years old but loves to trip and fall!”

“My mother says this is because when I was inside her stomach I didn’t receive enough nutrients!”

Baron rolls his eyes after hearing this, “Yes, lady Sunny is right.”

Macie turns her face to the side, Baron is so annoying!

However going back to Kevin, after he had seen that young girl he has a strong feeling growing inside of him. This type of feeling is called regret.

He suddenly slams the brakes of the car and stops in front of a cemetery.

The guard of the cemetery recognises him as soon as he sees him, every year he comes around this time. So he goes over and nods his head at Kevin.

“Has someone just been here?”

“Mr. Ellison and his wife have just left.”

Kevin nods his head and then enters.

After he gets to the place that he already knows so well, the first thing he notices is a bunch of wild lilies in front of the tombstone.

It seems it was Kelly who placed these flowers here.

Kevin crouches down and cleans up all the weeds and then sits down, “I haven’t come here in so long now.”

“I’ve tried hard to keep myself busy because I thought this would help me miss you a little less; however I soon realised that this is just not possible.”

“Sometimes I’m not willing to come here, perhaps because I don’t want to face the reality. Otherwise I can just tell myself that you are still alive somewhere else in the world living a good life.”

“Today I met a young girl, it’s normal that this would make me think about our child. Would you say that if our child was still here, then she would already have grown up by now?”

Kevin is sitting alone at the cemetery, talking endlessly about many things while facing Sunny’s picture.

When he finishes speaking he can’t help but cry, “Please come back, I’m begging you…”

But only his surroundings cater to him, just a gust of cold wind.

After Baron had brought Macie home and when they finished eating, he then takes her outside again.

“Baron, where are we going?”

“Don’t you miss your mum and dad? We are going to get them now.”

At this moment the sky is already turning dark. Because he has a small child sitting in the back, therefore he drives a little slower than usual.

It was because of this that his car and Kevin’s car that was driving back happened to have a face-to-face, which makes them both look at each other blankly.
