After two hours,
“Sir, all the process has been completed. Four Cannons at each direction, the energy barrier around the mansion, and the main teleportation channel has been established.”
“Mansion 2.0 is ready to face any danger and keep your family safe.”
After hearing Lily’s report, Brian heavily breathed. Because everything has been changing so fast, he didn’t know how to cope with it. His plans are failing. He has gotten more responsibility.
ɴ(O)ᴠᴇʟ And, his powers are getting more unrealistic. Things have changed so much that he had to step up and do everything to protect his family.
But, he can only keep it inside the mansion. If something happens to them when they are outside, it would be really bad.
After resting in his chair for half an hour, he finally walks out of his lab. When he reaches the hall, he saw two people arguing against each other.
They were none other than Ely and Wraith. And, Charlotte was just sitting there with her hands covering her head. She felt too tired to deal with this.
“Daddy!” Ely immediately spotted him and rushed toward him. She jumped into his embrace and shouted “Daddy, why is that guy living with us? I don’t want to live with him.”
“Humph! Who wants to live with you? I can’t even bear to stand in front of you.” Wraith folded his arms and pouted while looking away.-ɴ(0)ᴠᴇʟ.
“Daddy!” Ely’s eyes changed as if she was about to cry any moment as she looked at Brian. After hearing their fight, Brian helplessly sighed.
He finally understood that it wasn’t a real fight. No wonder, Charlotte didn’t make any move and let them bicker. It was like the relationship between daughter-in-law and mother-in-law.
He patted Ely’s head and said “It’s alright, Ely. Wraith’s parents are in some problems so he is going to live with us for some time. You can’t tell him to leave.”

On other hand, Wraith looked away and said “It’s me who said that. It’s my bloodline.”
At this moment, he understood what happened. Ely told him that one of her classmates was calling her eyes annoying and now there was another guy who called her eyes disgusting.
Obviously, she would be furious about this.
But, it wasn’t Wraith’s fault as well. If he was an adult, he would’ve known what to say. But, being a child, he just did as his bloodline told him.
And, Angel Bloodline despises the Vampire Bloodline. Two of them aren’t opposites like light and darkness. But, the Angel Bloodline only hates Vampire Bloodline because of their blood-related abilities. ɴ(O)ᴠᴇʟ
“Alright, if you two keep fighting then there will be food for two of you. And, Ely, you won’t get my blood. Wraith will stay here for sometimes and you have to adjust and be good to him.”
Brian sighed and finally decided to teach his daughter.
Although he could threaten Wraith, he was a parent, not a tyrant. He wanted his daughter to learn how to be a better person. Of course, he loves spoiling her but only when things are correct.
At the same time, he looked at Wraith and said “And you can’t call her bloodline disgusting. I know it is not you but the grown-up from Angel Race won’t say such a thing if he was in your situation.”
“You are a child, so I don’t punish you for that but you need to control your bloodline.”
“He is right, Wraith. You can’t let your bloodline dilute your thoughts. Now, let me show you your room. After you change your clothes, we can talk about your first day at the academy.” Charlotte walked up to Wraith and patted his head.
Wraith felt incredibly shy when she did that. He raised his hand and she took him to his room.
“That’s not fair. You told me you will help me change my clothes.” Ely jumped down from his embrace and stopped them.
“Can you stop being a baby about everything? I know you don’t like me because you don’t have any friends while I have a lot of them despite you joining one day ahead of me. You are such a whining baby.”
Wraith clenched his fist when he heard her words and rebuked her. There was a visible trace of anger in his eyes.
Hearing his words, Ely suddenly put down her hands and tears fell down her cheeks.
“Wraith! You can’t say such a thing to Ely.” Charlotte sharply glared at him and tried to embrace Ely but Ely escaped her embrace and left the mansion. Charlotte tried to catch up with her but Brian stopped her and said.
“I’ll go.”
At this moment, Charlotte won’t make things good. He couldn’t help but glance at Wraith. Although what Wraith said was bad, it wasn’t necessarily wrong.
He sighed and left the mansion. He walked around the mansion and finally came in front of the swing. At this moment, Ely was on the swing while crying.
Brian walked next to her swing and sat down.
“The thing that I most hate in my life is the point when things don’t go my way. I always like to plan things and whenever they don’t go my way, I get angry and frustrated.”
“After you came into my life, things have never gone the way I planned. In fact, I planned my entire life but nothing is going as I did.”
Hearing his words, Ely clutched the chains and cried even more. She has no other way to express her feelings except for the crying. But suddenly, Brian’s arm stretched to her head and fondled her hair.
“But, when I am with you, I can’t get angry. I always think ‘She is my daughter. What if she does something bad?’ ‘She is my daughter. Of course, I am going to do this thing for her’. ‘She is my daughter, I can’t blame her for doing this’.”
“Never had I ever thought of getting angry at you. But, I don’t want to be a dad who spoils his daughter to the extreme. So, even though I don’t want to get angry at you, I do get angry.”
“I get angry whenever you don’t listen to Charlotte. I didn’t angry because you don’t like her. I got angry because I don’t want you to spoil too much. I am always ready to do anything extreme for you but only when you are in trouble.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“I know the feeling of being lonely. I know what it feels like when none of your classmates want to talk to you. I did go through the same thing but do you know what I learned?”
At this moment, Ely raised her head and looked at him. She was no longer crying. She understood that she shouldn’t act like a spoiled brat.
Brian smiled and said “I learned that the person who gives you their attention will end up being the only friend you will have in your life. Despite fighting and quarreling, who are the only classmates that truly talk to you?”
Ely lowered her head and didn’t reply.
“Yes, they act like jerks and often don’t know how to talk. You are a child. They are children. I don’t know to want to scold you for fighting but you just hurt Charlotte’s feelings.”
“Now, she is too worried about you. She is trying everything to make you happy and sometimes if she messes things, she gets anxious about it. So, even if you fight, don’t make Charlotte suffer, alright?”
Brian was indeed worried about Charlotte. When Ely cried in front of Charlotte, he knew Charlotte blamed herself for this. And, that wouldn’t make their relationship good.
Ely bit her lips and nodded her head. Brian jumped down from the swing and opened his palm, stretching it in front of her. Ely held his hand and they finally returned to the mansion.
At this moment, Charlotte was standing at the door with a worried expression in her eyes. She had already sent Wraith to his room.
When she saw Ely, she rushed in front of her and lowered down.
“I’m sorry, Ely. I didn’t forget about my promise. I was just trying to get him away from you. I didn’t realize….”
Just when she tried to explain, Ely rushed into her embrace and wrapped her hands around me.
“Can you help me take off my clothes? …. mom!!!!”
For a moment, Charlotte couldn’t react. She just stared at Brian with a blank expression. He shrugged his shoulders. He already knew that she was getting closer and after meeting her future self, she was thinking about whether to really call her mom or not.
So, after Brian pushed her to love Charlotte, even more, she finally said the word she had been waiting to say after meeting her future self.
At this moment, Charlotte didn’t say anything. She just held Ely tightly in her embrace.
This was the best day of her life.
