Chapter 61
Eric jogged along the river. Last night, he came out to eat supper with his mother. After the supper, his
mother took him around the neighborhood. He remembered the way around here very well. Eric wouldn’t
get lost. After running for an hour, Eric was still in good spirits. His handsome little face was a little red,
and a few strands of hair on his forehead were soaked in sweat. He looked handsome. Ever since Eric
was three, he had been learning free combat with Alissa, and thus he had always been in good health
The movie “The Boxing Boy” was a good chance for Eric to present himself. He liked the character and

almost nine o’clock and he had to buy breakfast for his mother. Eric wiped the sweat off his forehead and
looked around with his big clear eyes. Judith said that Fashion Square was not far from here, and there
was a lot of delicious food there. But where should he go? Eric looked around, and a handsome man
jogged over. Eric walked over with a smile and shouted, “Sir, excuse me. May I know how to get to
Fashion Square?” It was Frank, jogging in the morning. Frank went out mostly because he wanted to
meet Judith, Frank stopped and looked at the familiar child in front of him. His voice was not as soft as
other children’s. Instead, it sounded vibrant and warm. His pair of clear and bright eyes were as confident
and handsome as the ones in his picture. Frank didn’t expect that he could actually see the boy he kept
thinking about last night. Frank could barely sleep the whole night. “Sir!” Eric saw that Frank did not
speak and called out again. But strangely, Eric found the man looking alike to himself. Frank came back
to his senses in an instant. Looking at the smiling child in front of them, Frank realized that their facial
features looked even more similar when taking a closer look. Frank’s heart suddenly began to pound
wildly, and a strange feeling arose in his heart. Frank pursed his lips. Frank was usually calm and
confident, yet he was a little nervous in the face of Eric. His hoarse voice was a little dry and much
gentler than usual, “You’re Eric?” Eric was slightly stunned. He hadn’t expected to be recognized. Eric
smiled politely. “Sir, do you know me? Do you think we look alike?” Frank smiled elegantly and
arrogantly. He wondered, “What is he talking about? He should have said that he looked like me.” “Eric

White, six years old. Recently, you have become famous all over the country. You just won first place in
the piano competition a few days ago. As long as people watch TV, they all know that you are a little
star.” Frank was so glad that Gary had told him some information about Eric last night. Thus, he could
leave a good impression on the boy who was very likely to be his son. “Thank you for your attention, sir.
Goodbye!” Eric smiled humbly. Eric was in a hurry. Judith would get heated if she woke up and found
Eric wasn’t home. “Wait!” Frank stopped Eric quickly. Eric turned around, smiled at him, and waited for
him to speak. Frank walked over to Eric and said with a smile, “Are you going to Fashion Square? I’ll
take you there. I happen to be going there for breakfast, too.” “Thank you, sir!” Eric did not refuse. It
would be faster if the man could show Eric the way. Moreover, he looked very alike to Eric, which
intrigued Eric.
