A Mysterious Man novel Chapter 51

He smiles and places many photos in front of Sunny. "Sunny, look at this photo. You can choose whichever you like."

Sunny glances at them roughly. Soon she finds Roger who grows up with her.

So she takes the photo without hesitation, "Dad, I want this boy."

Roger, he’s her Roger.

Sunny is not a fool so she knows that her father wants to utilize her to achieve something.

However, Sunny thinks that it doesn't matter although she is used. It doesn’t matter if she can marry Roger.

Her father doesn't expect Sunny to accept his arrangement so well. Therefore the expression on his face looks a little strange.

"Do you need to think about it again..."

Sunny shakes her head firmly, "Dad, I want him." She doesn't want anyone accept Roger.

Steven's expressions change a lot after hearing her words. He is just about to say something. Before he even speaks, Zola just comes back from school and enters the room happily while she is followed by Lora.

Obviously, they don’t expect that Sunny will be at home although not at the weekend. So they both freeze when they see her.

Zola's reaction is relatively worse than Lora, and she directly pouts her mouth.

"Dad, why is she here?"

Steven sees Sunny's reaction while having a perfunctory explanation for Zola, "Dear Zola, go upstairs and stay with mother now."

Sunny looks at the scene that they are developing the relationship between a kind father and a filial child. Then she lowers her eyelids, as if she is so indifferent that she seems like a stranger outside.

"Sunny, have you finished your consideration?" Steven hesitates to ask her.

Sunny nods without hesitation, "Dad, I only want Roger if you want me to unite two families by marriage. I won’t agree on anyone else."

She answers with no expression on her face. She does not know that Zola is hiding on the stairs to eavesdrop their conversation.

Steven does not reject her thoughts. After all, the Louis is much richer than them. If he can build a relationship with them, it can be regarded as the fact that their ancestors are blessing them.

So he nods and takes the photos away, "I see. Why don't you live in home for a few days?"

Sunny raises her head when she hears his advice. It’s no surprise that she sees Lora wandering in front of the kitchen door.

"No, I have something else to handle in my school." It doesn't mean she has no clear understandings on something although she doesn't say.

There has no place for her in this family.

Then she goes straightly back to school and does not know what happens later.

She only knows that the Louis politely refuses the Ellen family about the suggestion of uniting by marriage. Even they give them a sum of money as compensation for the refusal.

After hearing the news when she is at school, Sunny feels that she seems soaked in cold water from head to toe. She never feels so embarrassed before.

She returns home that day, sitting face-to-face with Steven. But she can’t say any words.

Steven knows Sunny's thoughts. His daughter is rejected mercilessly at this time. More or less, it is quite embarrassing.

He looks up at the face that looks quite similar to his ex-wife. However, he is a little speechless.

"Sunny...I'm useless..."

After such a long time, she can remember the humiliation of being rejected and the upset expression of Steven whenever she reminds of it.

Sunny once thinks it is her own problem. At this moment after listening to Zola’s words, it seems that there are some hidden facts in the past.

"Zola, I'm still sitting here and talking to you politely. Before I change my attitude, you’d better give me a clear explanation."

"Oh, Sunny. The person who wanted to unite by marriage was not you. Actually, it was me..."

Zola smiles slyly. It makes her more excited than doing other things when she sees Sunny's surprised expression at this moment.

It takes a long time for Sunny to make voice, "Can you... can you say it again..."

"Well. For your request, I say it again. The person who went to unite by marriage was me, not Sunny. So..."

Zola doesn't finish her words but the meaning in them is quite clear.

Otherwise, according to Roger's care for her since at an early age, how will he refuse her mercilessly?

Otherwise, according to Roger's character, why won’t he mention it when they meet each other?

"Sunny, if there isn't that mistakes, it might be you who stand next to Roger today..."

Sunny gives her a complicated look and she knows what Zola means. Even she is guessing like this.

"Don't... don't talk nonsense." She refutes without deterrence at all.

Zola glances aside, "Sunny, I tell you that you should let it go in the past. Why are you so persistent?"

Sunny glances aside in a panic and just sees Kevin's slightly worried look.

But at this time, Sunny quickly looks away. It seems that she doesn’t dare to look at him anymore.

Kevin sees her look and stuns for a moment. Moreover, some bad feelings appear in his mind.

He always feels that... Sunny’s attention on him is distracted.

But Zola is still make things more difficult for her while standing aside, "You future husband is really pitiful. Which person do you set your mind on now?"

"Enough."

The married couple on the stage has already started their ceremony. Sunny actually feels a little comfortable when she looks at them.

"I... I'm going to the toilet," she says and takes her handbag. She leaves here as if she is escaping from this place filled with happiness.

Kevin gives a warned gaze at Zola and follows Sunny quickly.

"Sunny, stop."

Kevin sees her walking faster and faster in high heels so he shouts in a hurry.

Sunny slows her steps when she hears his shout. But her footsteps keep going. It seems that no matter where she goes, the voice of the MC will penetrate powerfully and always follow her.

"What is wrong with you?" Kevin grabs her unbearably and presses her against the wall.

It is only then that he can see her clearly. Sunny's face is full of panicked expressions and the tears he hasn't noticed when it falls down.

"You are... crying..." Kevin looks at the tears and tries to reach out to wipe it. But Sunny turns her face away.

"Kevin...you...you go back first..." It is inappropriate if both of them come out. Maybe they will be found...

"I won’t leave if you don't want to tell me the truth." Kevin is not so easy to be fooled. At this time, he makes his efforts to finally stop Sunny.

Who knows where will she go if he leaves.

"Kevin...Please..." Sunny begs Kevin helplessly, hoping he can leave her alone.

Kevin looks at the top of Sunny's head. He wants to reach out to stroke it and comfort his angry Sunny.

His hand stretches out but he just stares at her hairpin. Then he withdraws it again.

For whom does she feel sad now?

Thinking of this problem, Kevin feels that he has to ask it clearly.

"Sunny, please look up at me." Kevin's voice sounds a little cold so Sunny cannot help raising her head. She is staring at Kevin.

"You tears..." He reaches out and wipes the tears for her during his speech, "Who do you cry for..."

Sunny murmurs but can’t utter a word.

Kevin immediately understands, "Is he worth it?"

Kevin's voice sounds even more gentle than it is as usual. But Sunny shivers by accident after she hears it.

Now she can't care about the issue that she is crying. Moreover, she can’t care about who is the marriage partner.

"Kevin... can you calm down first..."

The explanation has to start at the beginning.

When Sunny first discovers that Kevin has this problem, they have just met for not long time.

At that time, she just thought that Kevin was a little weird. When he was in a good mood, he could use all his efforts to spoil you. However, when he was in a bad mood, it was so terrible.

In that day, Sunny refuted him casually because of a small issue. She said that Kevin had a poor upbringing.

Irene was there at the time. Her face became pale when she heard this. When she was about to wave her hand to ease something, she found a strange smile on Kevin's face.

"Do I have a poor upbringing?" He walked towards her while talking. He doesn’t stop until she was forced to the corner.

"Kevin...what do you want to do..."

Sunny was a little scared because she had never seen Kevin behaving like this.

Irene who stayed aside understood what happened and said, "Sunny, wait for me." Then she turned to seek for something.

At that time, Kevin was also smiling and saying in a soft voice. However, his hands unkindly grabbed Sunny's neck.

"You..." Sunny didn't know why would he become like that at that time. She soon began to lack oxygen because her neck was grabbed by him.

Her hands and feet began to struggle but it was useless until Irene took actions. It didn't know what did she take out. She patted vigorously on several Chinese acupuncture points that would make them numb.

Only then did she escape from the death.

So Sunny looked at Kevin’s appearance right now. A fear of being covered by death appears from her back to the back side of her head.

"Kevin...we can have a nice talk..."

Later, Sunny learned that Kevin had a split personality and could not be irritated.

It was just that the disease hadn't happened for a long time and she has forgotten. We don’t know why does he get irritated. He did appear.

"Sunny, do you care about Roger so much?" Kevin is not a fool. Zola has said near Sunny's ear to make her react so great. Adding Sunny's reaction when Roger comes to the snail shell for the first time.

Kevin's guess is in a probability.

"I..." Sunny doesn't know that Kevin actually has clear mind now. He is himself.

"I don't. I just care about the thing happened in that year. For that thing ...it can be said that it keeps bothering my mind."

Kevin looks at her so quietly and says nothing.

Sunny encourages herself to give him a gaze. "It's true. I have no feelings and emotions when I see Michelle staying next to Roger. So I know that I have no feelings on him."

Sunny hasn't told lies about this. Who is Michelle? If Sunny hasn't heard anything outside the world as before, she might not be clear about her.

However, after experiencing a series of changes, Michelle can arrange her to work in Hotan just by one sentence. It can be said that the power of hers is also impossibly weak.

So Sunny also has some understanding of Michelle's identity, including her family which has a low-key style and is mysterious.
