Kevin really does not understand how Troy has turned into this cautious and anxious person, in the past he has never seen Troy like this.
As a result Kevin doesn’t care for sleep anymore and goes to hold Troy down and presses him onto the sofa.
“Come back, we haven’t eaten a meal together in such a long time. Let’s eat breakfast together.”
Troy looks at the clock on the wall and says, “Isn’t it a little early…”
Kevin follows the gaze of Troy and sees that the clock is pointing at 6. So he also realizes that it is early?
Kevin shakes this look off his face and says, “I saw you looking all anxious and restless as if you had many words you wished to say. If I don’t let you say them now then later on you will come again and knock on the door.”
Troy suddenly realizes that Kevin has seen through his thoughts, and scratches his head with embarrassment.
“So, tell me. Take the opportunity to tell me now.”
Troy hesitates for a short while, “I will serve you the porridge first to let it cool down.”
“Troy, be quick.”
“I… I’ve been hiding something from you.”
“What?”
Kevin just knows that Troy will not tell him the truth, so hearing him say this is not a surprise but still waits for him to continue.
“It’s just that now is still not the right time to tell you. Anyways yesterday Andrei called me.”
“What did he say to you?”
It seems as if he is recalling a rather unpleasant memory and his eyebrows crease together, “He asked me why am I still alive.”
Hearing this question, Kevin’s hands start to tremble, “What does he mean by why are you still alive? Could it be that the airplane accident from before…”
Troy shakes his head, “I don’t know, he just said this to me and didn’t say anything else. However I fell apart due to my own speculation about what he meant, as you saw how I was yesterday.”
“Are you sure it really was Andrei?”
“It is him; I will never in my whole life be able to forget his voice…”
It’s just why is it Andrei? If it was Bella then it makes sense, however who is Andrei in that he can say these things?
“It seems that since you have returned, they have started again to…”
Kevin makes a bold assumption, “What if you all had long since been targeted, and then they took that opportunity to attack you all at the same time in one go?”
Troy shakes his head, “You can say this about Baron and me however regarding Sunny; how would someone like her ever provoke people like this?”
“In addition I even don’t know anything about where Andrei came from. If he gets involved with other organizations, then he won't be so easy to deal with."
Kevin suddenly remembers Steven Ellen’s diary. Written on it is that before Andrei was called PY Gangster and after that girl disappeared, the Elliott family seemed intent on protecting him.
If this is the case then they have definitely run into big trouble.
“Wait for me, I need to go back and look through a few things. If I find evidence then I will give you a call, however before this you absolutely must prevent Sunny from going to see Andrei.”
“Why does she want to go see Andrei?”
“She looked at your call history.” More precisely is that it was both of them.
“This silly girl is so stubborn and never puts a matter to rest. Ok, I understand.”
Kevin raises his eyebrows after he hears him call her silly, “What did you just say?”
“My bad, sorry, you should go now.”
“Good boy, look after your mother.”
…
Get lost, Troy yells inside.
Kevin drives directly to his house and notices that Irene is not there.
It seems that ever since he saw through her she has not appeared in a long time.
It’s just strange that breakfast and lunches are always prepared every day and if he doesn’t come back to eat them then the next day she will replace the meals.
There’s no need to do this. Kevin sighs, I didn’t do anything anyways right?
But he doesn’t have time to think about Irene now. He goes straight upstairs, and in his bedroom, he flips through the diary and account book that had been kept for a long time.
Then he takes them both with him and goes directly back down the stairs.
In the kitchen he sees the breakfast prepared for him that hasn’t been touched yet and hesitates for a while.
He does not dare to eat this breakfast now.
Once he drives back to Troy’s apartment, he sees that Sunny is still not awake and Troy is guarding the place like a loyal dog.
“You really are so good, now I think you should go back, your husband should be awake by now.”
Troy feels slightly upset after he hears that he has been dismissed, “That’s it?”
“Yes, what else?”
“At least let me look at the legendary materials!”
Kevin looks at him calmly, “When you are finally willing to tell me the truth, then I’ll show them to you.”
At a loss on what to do Troy looks over at Sunny’s room and grits his teeth. He must remain trustworthy.
He then stands up rather distractedly, “I will not look then!”
As he says this he walks directly out the door, bringing a gust of wind with him.
“Shut the door.”
His response is the sound of the door closing.
“Fight me!”
Kevin chuckles softly and then after he sits down he starts to flip through the diary.
This time he knows what he is looking for inside, therefore he directly goes to look at the content relating to the Elliott family and the Hawkins family.
