NovelEnglishChapter 65 Where Is His Father? Camila and Silas exchanged glances with each other and smiled. “Sure, let’s eat. What do you want to
eat?” Silas turned his head and glanced toward South. “South, what do you want to eat?” Then, they
looked each other in the eye and said in unison, “Hotpot.” Upon hearing that, she burst out laughing.
Look at this tacit understanding between them; if I didn’t know better, I’d have thought that they were
actually father and son. Later, they arrived at the hotpot restaurant. It was past 2 PM, and lunchtime
was long over. Therefore, relatively few people were eating there. So, they didn’t ask for a private room
and found a place to sit in the front hall. “What kind of hotpot do you want? Spicy, or non-spicy?”
Camila asked. “Non-spicy!” the two guys sitting opposite her replied in unison. She was surprised. “Mr.
Nolan, do you not take spicy foods?” “I do. But, I just can’t get used to eating spicy hotpot!” Silas

words were carelessly said, but South narrowed his eyes happily. Well, we are father and son after all.
Of course, we’re similar! Recently, Daddy has been doing really well. I’m going to observe things for a
little while more. If he treats Mommy as well as I treat her, I’ll tell him the truth! In the end, Camila
ordered a non-spicy hotpot along with many dishes to go with it. It could be said that she had
completely satisfied the appetites of the two guys sitting opposite her. Silas looked at South and smiled
with a warm and gentle expression. “Your son is extremely adorable.”
Camila glanced at South and groaned, “He only acts well-mannered. But, he’s actually very cheeky!”
“There’s nothing wrong with a boy being mischievous.” Then, Silas glanced at the mother and son pair
and hesitatingly asked, “I’ve been meaning to ask; why does
South have your surname? Where is his father?”
He didn’t believe the vile words that the old lady said. Therefore, he decided that it was better to ask
the person involved directly. Camila was taken aback, then she dismissively replied, “He’s dead! He
died before the child was even born.” Pfft- When South heard those words, he spat out the water he
was drinking. At the same time, he nearly died choking on the little bit of water he swallowed.
Glaring at Camila resentfully, he secretly said in his heart, Mommy, why are you telling Daddy that he
died to his face? Isn’t that bad? Silas nervously patted him on the back. “Are you okay?” Meanwhile,
Camila anxiously handed him a cup of water. “Quickly drink some water! Honestly, slow down! How can
you choke on water?” Then, he drank his water while silently scolding her in his heart, Don’t you know
how shocking the words you said were?! After a while, he finally stopped coughing. Lifting his gaze, he

She glared at him. “Don’t talk back so much!” However, South simply grinned. On the other hand, Silas
had secretly noted down that fact. I see; the father is gone. No wonder the child takes after her
surname. “All these years, have you been raising him alone?” She nodded. “Yeah, more or less.” He
found it extremely admirable. “That’s amazing. You’re so talented. Even then, you still managed to take
such good care of your child.” Camila was praised so highly that she didn’t know how to react. Thus,
she was stuck in awkward embarrassment. Fortunately, the waiter came over to serve their food, and
the topic was averted. Who could have known that the little guy would continue the topic after the
waiter left? South said, “My mommy isn’t really good at taking care of others. Since she can’t cook, we
constantly eat out. Besides, she’s extremely busy. So, I basically took care of myself. I mean; she
doesn’t even know how to put on an extra layer of clothes when she gets cold! I need to remind her to-”
Before he could finish, Camila cut across his sentence. “South, hurry up and eat.” How can this child
tell him everything?! Can’t you leave me a little dignity in front of others?
