My Dreamy Old Husband novel Chapter 258

Talking about Sean, Michael expressed his regrets. “His father died at a young age and his mother remarried to another man. Since he was a boy, the Mitchells did not allow his mother to bring him away with her. Hence, he was forced to part ways with his mother. I guess that was when he started having a grudge.”

Sophia also let out a sigh. The couple then went down the stairs as they headed into the hotel.

Meanwhile, Nathan, who had been left behind at home, was holding onto a laptop as he walked to Villa Number 4 across the road in his pajamas.

Harry lived there, and he was playing video games at home at this moment. He still had some business to attend to later, but he was free at the moment. So, he decided to play a few rounds of games in the meantime.

With an upset look, Nathan keyed in the passcode before entering the house. When Harry saw him, he curiously asked, “Why are you here, Nate?”

Ever since Michael got married, he would return home to look after his wife and kid when he had some spare time, neglecting his bunch of good friends.

Nathan pouted. “Do you know how to play ‘Swordsman Game’?”

Feeling confused, Harry replied, “Yes.”

Nathan then switched on his laptop in Harry’s living room before starting the video game with a furious expression. “Come and play the game with me.”

Harry was baffled. He then went upstairs to take his own laptop while making his guesses. Nathan’s parents must have gone out for a date, leaving him alone at home.

 

He must be angry at being left alone. Nevertheless, this little kid knows how to play games? And the Swordsman Game to boot? Could he be one of those legendary ‘elementary student players’?

He was rather curious too, and he wanted to see for himself just how brilliant was this ‘elementary student player’.

 

The two of them then started playing the video game in the living room. Sitting across each other, they were surrounded by junk food. After they had logged into the game, the duo put on their earphones.

“Nate, I’ll wait for you at the entrance of Stressfree Village on the Bayside server. Do you know the way?”

Putting on an expressionless face, Nathan answered, “Yes.”

Nathan headed to the entrance of Stressfree Village. The moment he arrived there, he stumbled across a character whom he despised—No. 1 Beast of the Server.

This character had been stirring up trouble in the game and had even bullied him, but his ‘father’, Sirius, told him that the competition was coming up, so he couldn’t fight the Beast for the time being. Thus, Nathan had been holding back against this scum.

On this day, Beast was here to mock him again. ‘Hey, isn’t this NateHiro? Where’s Daddy? Why isn’t Daddy here?’

NateHiro remained silent as he waited for his godfather to come and play the game with him.

Beast then purposely walked up to him. ‘Hey, you have quite an attitude, don’t you? Come, call me your brother! We’re considered a family!’

His in-game father was Scary Phoenix, while NateHiro’s in-game father was Sirius. Their fathers were married, so they were really considered as a family, or rather, a reconstituted family.

NateHiro suddenly pounced toward him without uttering a word and started giving Beast a beating.

Beast was forced to fight back too, but NateHiro seemed to be more powerful than him as it took him a lot of energy to fight back. While they were fighting, Harry said to Nathan who was sitting across him. “Son, I met a rival. Don’t come over first for the time being. Go to Rocky Pinnacle and wait for me there. I’ll be there in a second.”

If his godson found out that he was being beaten up so badly by his rival, he would be so embarrassed!

Without making a sound, Nathan beat Beast up swiftly until he was barely alive; this kid really seemed to be angry for being left alone at home.

After a bout of fighting, Beast, who was clearly not NateHiro’s match, left in a dejected manner. ‘Just you wait. I’ll ask my father to look for your father and seek revenge.’

Beast then fled to Rocky Pinnacle, but he must not let Nathan know that he had been beaten up. Otherwise, it would be so embarrassing for him as his godfather.
