NovelEnglishChapter 1402
As soon as Tarquin left, Evan sneaked out through the window.
Outside, Scarface the big guy with a face full of scars-was already waiting for him. The two of them headed off
together toward the gym.
Evan looked troubled, like his mind was spinning with questions.
Scarface was just about to ask what was wrong, ready to offer sadvice, when
Evan blurted out, "Hey, why is Dad always kissing Mom?"
Scarface: “....." How was he supposed to answer that?
He'd never been in love himself and couldn't really wrap his head around why couples were so attached to each
other.
After thinking for a bit, he finally said, "I guess it's 'cause he loves her."
Evan frowned. "So when | grow up, am | gonna be like Dad? Always sticking to my wife and wanting kisses?"
Scarface: "...Not necessarily."
"Why not? You just said Dad kisses Mom ‘cause he loves her. I'll definitely love my wife, so I'll want kisses every
day too!"
Scarface replied, "Well, you might not even find a wife."
Evan's eyes went wide. "No way! I'm so good-looking. If you and Bernard can't find wives, that's just 'cause
you're ugly. I'm not ugly!"
Scarface: "..." Wow, nothing cuts deeper than a kid you care about!
Was this little rascal even worth it?
Evan suddenly beamed, caught up in his own daydream. "When | grow up, I'm gonna find the prettiest, kindest
woman in the world, just like Dad. I'll spoil her rotten! Ha ha..."

Elysia.
Couldn't they keep their lovey-dovey stuff away from the kid?
Tarquin and Elysia would probably protest: "We have no idea when he saw anything!"
Scarface changed the subject. "So, how are we getting in? The gym charges for tickets."
Evan grinned. "I've got an invite! Punikon sent it to me. He wantsto see his dad beat up my dad, in person."
Scarface nodded, then added, "Just don't do anything reckless when we get there. Keep a low profile, okay?"
Evan shot back, "You always say Bernard is too timid, and now you're tellingto be low-key?"
The old man muttered under his breath, "Back then I only had to look after myself. Now, things are different."
He had people he cared about now...
Bernard was hiding out, faking his own death for sbig secret-he couldn't be exposed yet. And Evan well,
Evan was the great hope of the local martialarts world, but it wasn't for him to step into theo spotlight,
either. s
So, they were just here to watch the action-no grandstanding. They had to keep off the radar.
Evan grinned, full of confidence, "You're worried aboutand Bernard, right, Uncle?"
Scarface ignored him. "Race you! First one to the gym wins!"
Before he'd even finished his sentence, Evan shot off like a rocket. "See you there, Uncle!"
Scarface watched the kid's small figure disappear down the block, his eyes full of affection.

Scarface started two minutes after Evan, but somehow arrived at the gym first.
When Evan finally showed up, Scarface pointed to his watch. "You're 399 seconds late."
Evan gawked, "How did you get here so fast? Did you cheat and plan the route ahead of time?"
