Chapter 26 – Chapter 23: How dare you compare yourself with the person my dad likes?

Little Master was a smart and perceptive child, and ever since he could discern the good and evil of those around him, he had been filled with disgust and resistance towards Kiara Dunn and her daughter.

At first, he only thought that his mom and grandma didn’t like him, but later, whether it was due to his nature or sixth sense, he began to feel that Kiara Dunn was not his mom at all.

However, he knew that if he said so, no one would believe him.

It wasn’t until he met Timothy and Tifanny at kindergarten that he became a hundred percent certain that Kiara Dunn was an imposter.

Roy Lewis slightly furrowed his brows, holding his son’s shoulder and looking him in the eye, trying to reason with him earnestly.

“Timmy, even if your mom did something that made you unhappy, you can’t talk about her like that.”

Little Master turned his face away in annoyance, “You really are stupid!”

Even he, as a child, knew that Kiara Dunn was an imposter, but why didn’t his dad believe him?

Worse still, he had promised Timothy and Tifanny not to tell his dad or anyone else that Richelle Dunn was his mom.

Kiara, wearing high heels, finally swayed gracefully to their side. She slightly lifted her face and gave Roy Lewis a shy smile.

“Roy, you guys are here. Go and sit over there, by the window; the air is better.”

After saying that to Roy Lewis with a blushed face, she finally remembered her “beloved son” and squatted down, speaking to Little Master in a soft voice, “Timmy, mommy got a lot of seafood you love to eat, let’s go over quickly!”

Little Master turned his face away from her, raised his head, and said to Roy Lewis with a stern expression, “Dad, I don’t want to eat lunch, I want to go home!”

Roy Lewis didn’t know what suddenly upset his son. He had been fine just a moment ago.

“Timmy, be good, don’t make a fuss. Your mom is leaving this time and won’t be back until next month to be with you.”

Little Master snorted coldly, “I don’t care! And she’s not here for me, she’s here for…”

“Timmy!”

Roy Lewis interrupted him sternly, his head aching slightly. How could his son switch between being soft and cute to being stubborn so quickly?

Could it be that he was entering his rebellious phase at such a young age?

Little Master furrowed his brows and pointed at Kiara Dunn with his chubby finger, “Dad, are you blind? She likes you, and you don’t know?”

Roy Lewis frowned as well, “Timmy, don’t talk nonsense. Your mom and I are just friends!”

Kiara Dunn was pointed at by Little Master and had her unattainable desires exposed. Roy Lewis then distanced himself from her in public, which was like being slapped in the face, making her embarrassed and angry.

Inwardly, she couldn’t wait to smack the little brat a few times.

However, in front of Roy Lewis, she had to pretend to be a very patient and good-tempered mother, so she could only smile awkwardly but politely at Roy Lewis. Then, she looked at Little Master with a guilty expression, “Timmy, I know you’re still angry, but mommy has no other choice. Mommy has to work, so I can only come to see you once a month…”

As she said that, it misinterpreted the situation of Little Master being angry when he went home a few days ago to mean that he was throwing a tantrum because he wanted her to be with him more.

This way, Little Master appeared to be the spoiled and unreasonable child who didn’t understand his parents’ hard work.

Little Master glared at her fiercely and then looked at his dad with a disappointed expression.

Wake up, Dad! How could this scheming woman possibly be my mom!

How could such a stupid and ugly woman give birth to a smart and handsome child like me?

My mom is not only beautiful and kind-hearted, but she also excels in medicine, is knowledgeable, and her cooking is amazing!

However, his dad couldn’t receive any of his inner rantings at all. He scooped Little Master up and began walking towards the location Kiara pointed to without hesitating.

Following behind him, Kiara Dunn wore a cunning grin, her scheme seemingly succeeding.

The young master’s protest was futile, so he could only resist passively.

As they sat down, Kiara explained to him that Richelle didn’t come because she was out shopping with her friends, while handing him a glass of juice.

The young master didn’t even glance at her, as he pushed his dad, “Daddy, I want lemonade.”

The main characteristic of a buffet is that you have to get your own food and drinks.

Roy Lewis knew that his son just wanted to have a word with his mom, so he patted him on the head, “Alright, Daddy will get it for you. But you can’t be angry at your mom anymore, alright? Just talk to her calmly, okay?”

Roy would usually avoid letting Kiara meet the young master.

On one hand, he was genuinely busy.

On the other hand, he was tired of Kiara’s persistant pursuit. He had made it clear from the start that he and her were an impossibility, yet she always hinted and openly pursued him when given the opportunity.

However, after meeting Richelle’s children yesterday, he couldn’t help but reflect on his own behavior. The young master’s temper had been increasingly volatile and hard to predict lately – could it be related to his rejection of Kiara?

After all, which child wouldn’t hope for their parents to get along?

The young master snorted through his nose, expressing either “I understand” or “mind your own business.”

The buffet restaurant was large, with a small fountain and colorful goldfish in the middle. It separated the food and drink area from where Kiara and others were sitting.

As soon as his dad moved to the other side of the fountain, the young master folded his arms and stared coldly at Kiara.

“Let me tell you, my dad already has someone he likes. Stop clinging to him like a desperate leech.”

Kiara was frustrated to the point of grinding her teeth, but she had to contain her temper. She also wanted to gather useful information from the young master.

“Impossible! My father has high standards. Apart from me, who else could catch his eye?”

Even when prying for information, Kiara couldn’t help but boast about herself.

She thought the young master was naive and didn’t know that she and his dad never had any relationship to speak of.

However, the young master wasn’t so easily fooled, and he sneered at her.

“You wicked monster; my dad would have nightmares just looking at you. You dare compare yourself to the person my dad likes?!”

The young master, Timothy, and Tifanny had exchanged their smartwatch numbers the first day they met at kindergarten. Behind their parents’ backs, they had secretly spoken several times, speculating on the origins of their sibling relationships.

After intense discussion, the siblings unanimously agreed that their dad and mom were once deeply in love but were eventually separated by malicious forces, hence their current indifferent behavior towards each other.

Therefore, even though Roy and Richelle didn’t display any romantic affection when together, the young master still stubbornly believed in his heart that his mom was the one his dad truly liked.

Otherwise, after all these years, his dad wouldn’t remain single and avoid girlfriends.

Kiara was furious enough to flip a table, but managed to maintain a polite smile on her face, “Really? So, who is this person your dad likes? What does she do?”

Today was the first time Roy had ever called her voluntarily, so she decided not to bicker with this brat.

Moreover, she needed to gather more useful information from him. Knowing oneself and the other party is the key to win any battle.

Propping up his cheek, the young master thought for a moment, then proudly told a curious Kiara.

“Oh boy, the person my dad likes is very powerful! I mean, even my super cool dad has to act according to her wishes. When she tells him to sleep, he obediently goes to bed!”

Kiara’s face turned pale, her fingernails digging deep into her palm!
