Chapter 496 Sorry about Scaring You
The air seemed to freeze in an instant, and everyone felt embarrassed.
Keith's smile froze on his face. After a long time, he laughed and stretched out his hand towards Larry.
"Ah. It's you. I'm pleased to see you!’
"It's really a pleasure..."
Larry smiled. His gaze was cold. ’You know what? There have been many times when I wanted to chop
you into pieces to feed crocodiles!"
"Hahaha. Larry, you are so humorous!"
Keith pointed at Larry. "I thought that Braden shut you up back then. I thought you had been hiding at
Sutor Wharf and didn't dare to come out!"
"Mr. Guerra, come on. You can try me if you want to know whether he has shut me up."
"No. If I try, I will die."
They were fighting against each other with words. They were smiling on the surface, but what they said
was not friendly.
Shirley and Nancy held hands and retreated to the side, afraid of being injured by mistake.
"Alright. That's enough. Get out of the way. Don't block the exit."
Shirley held Bennett and Alisha's hands and said, "Guys, this is your uncle. I mentioned him. Do you
remember? Greet your uncle."
"Uncle!"
The children called Larry in their cute voices.
"Hi, Ben, Ally. I miss you so much. I finally saw you. Come here. Let me hug you!"
Larry originally wanted to continue to argue with Keith, but when he saw the lovely children, his anger
vanished. He squatted down and picked them up.
Bennett asked Larry curiously, "Uncle, why are you wearing a mask like Quintin? Do you know
Quintin?"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtBennett reached out to take off Larry's mask.
"Hey. Ben, don't touch my mask!"
Larry stopped him with a serious expression.
"Why?"
"Because I was disfigured by a bad guy. There is a big scar on my face. I'm afraid that it will scare you."
Larry said that honestly.
Alisha said sweetly, "It doesn't matter, Uncle. You are our uncle. We won't be afraid. It's alright. A scar
is a mark that makes you special. No one else has it!"
"Um..."
Alisha's words made Larry feel touched. His heart, which was as cold as a stone, suddenly got warm.
It had been a long time since he had felt this way.
"Ben, Ally, don't be rude. He doesn't want to take it off, so leave him alone. Don't pester him. Besides...
It's cool to wear a mask, isn't it?"
Shirley lectured the children with a straight face.
She knew that Larry had been troubled by the scar. It was understandable that he didn't want people to
see it. Shirley never tried to change his mind.
"It's fine. If the children want to see it, I can take the mask off."
Larry smiled in relief, "There is no secret between family members."
The next second, he took off his mask.
The winding scar was like a crooked earthworm. It went from the left side of the man's eye to the right
side of his mouth. The big scar divided his face into two halves!
Everyone was shocked, but to protect Larry’s self-esteem, they didn't say anything.
The passers-by didn't hide their astonishment. They screamed after being frightened and kept a
distance from him.
"Ah! A monster!"
"My goodness! Did someone cut off half of his face? This is too scary!"
Larry felt hurt. He quickly put on the mask again and smiled bitterly, 'Sorry. I scared you."
"No. You didn't scare us..."
Shirley felt sorry for Larry and comforted him. "I think you are very handsome. Your eyes are beautiful.
They look like Mom's eyes. Your gaze is gentle and firm. And you got Dad's mouth. You have beautiful
lips. All these prove that you're my biological brother. If we are not related by blood, I will definitely fall
in love with you at first sight!"
"Really?"
Larry's dim eyes immediately lit up.
He had fantasized about the appearance of his mother many times, but he felt that it was not vivid
enough. Hearing Shirley's description, Larry immediately saw a picture in his mind. And he felt warm in
his heart.
"Of course. If you don't believe me, just ask Nancy. She is our parents' friend. She often comes to our
home. She knows what they look like... Right, Nancy?"
"Yes. Yes!"
Nancy was frightened by the scar on Larry's face. But as she looked carefully, she found that Larry was
good-looking. He was no less handsome than Braden, Keith and other men she knew. He was even
more handsome than them.
It was because Larry's eyes were very attractive. They were just like his mother's.
Shirley's mother was as famous as Tracy. She was the most beautiful woman in North City back then!
"Larry's eyes are exactly the same as Iris'. When I saw them just now, I was a little shocked. I thought I
saw her..."
Nancy spoke with a sincere expression.
"That's great."
Larry finally felt better as Shirley and Nancy kept praising his appearance. He smiled again.
It was precisely his smile that made him look like a noble and elegant prince. He seemed to be glowing.
But Keith suddenly said, "Tsk tsk tsk. Braden was too ruthless. He actually cut your face. It was nearly
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmcut into two halves. You look like a monster. People will have nightmares after they see you.”
Shirley was speechless.
Nancy kept silent.
Keith said, "Why are you two staring at me? Did I say anything wrong? He knows what his face looks
like. Otherwise, why would he wear a mask? Your flattery will only make him get confused. What if he
really quits the mask? It will scare children. Even if it doesn't scare children, the passers-by may get
frightened.’
Nancy couldn't stand it anymore and fiercely punched him. "Keith, nobody wants to hear your opinion.
Just shut up!"
"Ugh. It hurts. Nancy, you vicious woman. Are you trying to kill your husband?"
Keith covered his belly and bared his teeth in pain as he blurted out.
Hearing the word "husband", Nancy's cheeks immediately were slightly red, and she didn't say
anything else.
Keith rubbed his belly for a while and then said seriously, "Don't be angry. I have said that for Larry's
good!"
Keith looked at Larry, who kept a cold face. "Larry, it has been so many years. Have you ever thought
of finding a good plastic surgeon to recover your handsome face?"
"No!"
Larry gritted his teeth and replied angrily.
Keith is a slovenly spoiled brat. And he is Braden's friend. If Shirley wasn't here, I would have killed
him!
"It doesn't matter. Universe Entertainment may not be proficient in other businesses, but we are familiar
with plastic surgeries. Most of our artists have had plastic surgery. I know a plastic surgeon who is
known as 'Dr. Miracle'. He can definitely recover your face!"
Keith said that enthusiastically.
"Really?"
Larry frowned. A glimmer of hope was ignited.
Larry was eager to get his undamaged face back.
