With a determined look in his eyes, John said, "Yes, I've made up my mind."
"In that case, just do as you want. I will go to the Mist Water Park tomorrow. The place will be thrown into chaos, and I can handle the problem there." Sam sighed slightly, the wrinkles on his face deepened.
He turned his wheelchair back to his son and looked at the snow outside the window. "It will be very cold tomorrow. Remember to take care of yourself."
"I've been working out for the past six months. I'm healthy, don't worry." John only looked thinner because he was losing fat and leaning his muscles out while he toned them.
He had been training with Richard and the bodyguards for half a year now.
"I know. I also know that you went to see a psychologist, but I still feel that taking the waterway is too dangerous." Sam had always been shrewd. John was usually so good at hiding his actions, but he always had a problem keeping them from Sam.
With a faint smile, John said, "This is the most flawless way to go about it. I originally planned to blow my car up, but I would find a corpse then."
"All right." Sam didn't want to hear any more. He waved his hand and said, "Get out of here now."
"Okay," John replied. "I will come back with her."
"Fuck off, you brat!" When Sam used to say something like that, he shouted at John. But now he was too old and weak to do so.
John left.
He went straight back to North Yard.
This was only the second time he had gone back during the past six months.
The first time was on New Year's Day. Chester wanted to stay with him and John couldn't let the child sleep in his office, so he had no choice but to be here.
Helen was knitting a scarf on the sofa. Hearing the footsteps outside, she poked her head out in confusion.
A familiar voice came to her ears.
"Nine, Nine, come out and welcome your dad. How can you be so lazy? You look like someone has knocked you out." As soon as Adrian entered the garden, he walked towards Nine.
Helen and Amy specially built a lovely house for Nine, with a yard, a fence and a gate. There were light yellow lights hanging on it, creating a warm atmosphere.
Nine raised his head, hearing the voice. As expected, as soon as he saw John, he stood up excitedly.
"Woof..." Nine barked as it shook its tail, seeing John.
Adrian looked at him and stopped. "Damn it! How did you get so big and strong? If you stood on your hind legs, you'd be my height. You're a wolf, aren't you?"
"A wolf doesn't have as much hair as it does." Henry walked over and touched Nine's head. "Your father is back."
"That's right. Your father is back. Why don't you look excited at all?" With a strange look on his face, Adrian squatted down and smoothed Nine's hair. "You are so obedient. You don't look like a Tibetan Mastiff though."
"I am Nine's brother." John corrected Adrian and then snapped his fingers at Nine. Nine walked towards John.
It was snow-white and walked majestically on the snow.
Adrian was so stunned that his jaw dropped. Henry needed to snap him out of it.
"Oh, Nine seems very closed off. It's not giving us any attention whatsoever." Adrian calmly looked at the man and the dog walking forward, and nudged Henry with his elbow. "Did I just hear Mr. Shi say that he is Nine's brother?"
"It's actually not that odd. I heard Nina say that she is Nine's sister before." Henry pulled Adrian's arm and the two followed John.
Adrian quietly pointed at John and scoffed. He said, "Mr. Shi is so shameless."
"Keep your voice down." Henry nudged him.
"John didn't hear me."
