"Right on!” Jamie said with his mouth still stuffed with dumplings. "It must be the psychotic boss who's keeping Mommy in the office and not allowing her to go home."
"Yeah." Ellie's plump cheeks were covered with tears as she pouted. "I've seen him before. He's so fierce, and he almost killed Fifi. I hate him."
"He is so arrogant that he would only talk through his men when he came to the kindergarten." Robbie frowned in contempt. "I hate him too."
"What a detestable guy," Jamie seethed as his fingers tightened around themselves. "Next time I see him, I'll make him pay for bullying Mommy, Robbie, and Ellie!"
"Who is this man who bullies women and children?" The elderly gentleman too got riled up just hearing their exchange. "Tell me so I could teach him a lesson!"
"You're too old to fight him, Grandpa Nacht," Jamie said solemnly as he regarded the old man. "The man's got many bodyguards. He's big and tall and looks like a meanie!"
"Yeah, his eyes are scary..." Ellie added as she recalled with fear her encounter with that bad guy at the mall. "He has the look of a lion who wants to eat me!"
With that, the little girl pursed her lips and started to bawl pitifully again.
"Hey there, don't be afraid." Mr. Nacht almost melted when he pulled her into his arms to comfort her. "Even if he's a lion or a tiger, I can tame him!"
"Yup, your Grandpa's the best," Spencer said in amusement. "There's no one in the world that he cannot subdue!" "Really?" Jamie became excited as he came close and tugged at the elderly man's sleeve. "Do you know martial arts, Grandpa Nacht?"
The old man laughed. "I don't, but I have this!"
