Chapter 285 - His little boy!

"Very good! We will plant these later. Come let's go downstairs!"

The two headed downstairs and all the time Xio Lee's eyes were searching for the boy! He is not here? But the bracelet can not be wrong! "Umm..Rose did you bring along somebody else too?"

"Ohh!! Yes master! I totally forgot. I wanted to introduce my boyfriend to you. His name is Rhehan."

Xio Lee's eyes widened and he was about to stumble on his own foot, while climbing down the stairs. "So you have a boyfriend! Where is he?"

"Oh! Master! He is an animal lover too, just like you! He stopped near the garden when he saw a small cub." Rose giggled.

"So he likes wild animals too? What else does he like?" Xio Lee asked happily, remembering the time Rhehan played with wild animals as a kid.

Rose thought that Xio Lee was wanting to know more about Rhehan because, he wanted to know if he is a suitable boyfriend or not. "Besides work, he likes to cook! He has been taught to cook by his old man!"

"Oh! Old man? Who is he?"

"Rhehan says that the old man had found him on the streets and gave him a job in the cafe. Everything he has learnt is due to the old man."

"Oh! I see!" Xio lee blinked several times, while trying to control his tears. "Tell me something else about him!"

"Umm! He is very honest and intelligent. Also, he treats me with utmost respect and care. He is an orphan, so he has always been lonely!"

Xio Lee felt as if a knife has stabbed him in his heart. The boy who was so deeply loved, was yet so lonely! "Does he remember anything else about his childhood?"

"Umm...Not as far as I know! He only remembers the old man and a white dog."

Xio Lee could not control his tears so he quickly turned his head away, heading towards the kitchen. He was cursing himself, for torturting his own self! Why would the boy remember me? He was too young! I am just expecting too much! He headed towards the kitchen, changing the topic. "Would you like some fennel tea!?"

"Offcourse master! I woudn't miss it for the world." Rose followed Xio Lee in the kitchen, to help him.

"I also made your favourite chips this morning." Xio Lee fetched a large bowl and uncovered it, revealing colored chips in different shapes and sizes.

Rose jumped in excitement and took the bowl in her hands, greedily munching the chips.

Suddenly, a voice came from behind them and they both halted. "Hello sir! I am Rhehan Jobs!"

Xio Lee, who was preparing the tea halted and took few deap breaths. He blinked several times and finally turned his head to look at the boy!
