A Mysterious Man novel Chapter 106

After they finish discussing things, Sunny and Kelly are holding hands, looking at each other and crying.

“Kelly, congratulations on fulfilling your long cherished wishes, you finally got married to a handsome man and gave birth to a child.”

Kelly spits at her, “You bitch! Every year I was crying at your grave because I had heard nothing from you for so many years. You owe me my youth back!”

“What do you mean my grave? Who set up a gravestone for me?”

Kelly pouts in the direction of him, “Who else could have done it?”

Sunny looks over at Kevin, “I’ve really made things difficult for him for so many years.”

“Oh, you want to know what else you’ve done. You also have a child now and I heard she is a very pretty young girl, you must let me see her.”

Seeing her so excited, Sunny has no choice but to let go of her hands, “Since we were having an adult discussion, I made her go back to her bedroom.”

“Then call her out here, I want to hug and kiss her, I am her godmother after all.”

“You are Ellison’s wife, so what does that make you, her aunt?”

While Sunny says this she looks over at Macie’s door and then shouts, “Macie, come on out and meet your aunt.”

“Don’t call me that, it really does not sound nice.”

Macie obediently walks out after hearing her name be called and when she sees Kelly her eyes suddenly widen, “My beautiful aunt!”

Kelly asks curiously, “Your reaction makes me wonder have you met me before?”

Macie nods her head, “There are many portraits inside my mother’s room and among them is one of you. But you look so much more beautiful in person…”

Kelly is unable to conceal her happiness by what Macie just said, “Silly girl, why are you talking like that? From now on don’t call me your aunt, refer to me as your godmother, ok?”

“But…” Macie is a little hesitant and looks in the direction of Troy, “I already have a godfather. So what am I supposed to call your husband then?”

These words stump Kelly, she looks at Ellison many times until she finally she grits her teeth and says, “Call him uncle.”

Sunny next to her spurts out rather frankly, “But won’t you then be beaten by your husband for this?”

Kelly looks at Macie helplessly, “For this little sweetheart, it will be worth it.”

“Come and have a look, this is your ugly younger brother.”

Sunny cannot help but laugh and cry at the same time after hearing this.

However Macie is an honest person and after looking at her younger brother again she says frankly, “You are actually very cute.”

“Sunny, your child is always telling lies.”

“Kelly enough, stop before you go too far.”

Sunny is a little wordless seeing Kelly with such a bright smile who is actually trying to hide her joy after hearing what Macie said about her son.

In the end, after Ellison’s repeated persuasion, a rather reluctant to leave Kelly pulls at her child to go.

“I don’t want to leave!”

“We can come back again tomorrow, alright?” Kevin is surprised to see that Ellison who once had a bad temper is now patiently persuading Kelly. He feels that perhaps he is going blind.

“Ok…” Kelly pouts her lips and then after giving a hug to Sunny and giving a kiss to Macie, she finally leaves after turning around each step she takes.

After they had left, Baron takes Troy’s collar and also prepares to leave.

Sunny is a little surprised to see them both, “You’re leaving so early?”

Baron nods his head, “I have some things that I need to sort out with him.”

Sunny understands and then sees Troy trying to get away however as always fails and in the end lets out a chuckle.

“Sunny, you can’t just watch someone in trouble and not try to help them!”

Troy is still trying to get free, while written clearly on his face is the look of panic and fear.

Before Sunny can make any response, Kevin takes the lead and pushes them out the door, “It’s late, goodnight.”

“What, Kevin, I thought we were close friends!”

How can anyone so eagerly push their close friend into a pit of fire?

“Regarding this matter, I’m not.”

He then closes the door.

Suddenly it is quiet.

Sunny then calls Macie to come and sit down on the sofa, “Macie, mummy has something she would like to say to you.”

Kevin also walks over with her.

Macie looks at both him and then her, and is a little frightened by their serious expressions. Her mum and dad, are they still not able to be together?

“So Macie, it’s like this. This man called Kevin is not actually your uncle, he is your father.”

After hearing this Macie’s eyes suddenly widen as if she understands what her mother means!

“Well it wasn’t easy for us to acknowledge our old relationship again but are you happy?”

Sunny feels that her final question was a little pointless because it is clear that from Macie’s face you can see her bright and wide smile.

“Mum, I am very happy.”

Macie kisses Sunny’s face and then stands on her tiptoes on the sofa to kiss Kevin, “We are a family now.”

If you want to know the reason why Macie didn’t go to class today it was because someone was spreading around that Macie had a mother but had no father. This made her so angry that she hit that person.

The teacher then informed Baron and once he understood the reason for her actions he then took her to the amusement park to calm her down and relax her mind.

“So can I make a request? Can both of you take me to school tomorrow?”

Although a little surprised by Macie’s strange request, Sunny thinks of something and then nods her head, “I’m fine with this, now we just need to see if your father agrees or not.”

Of course, this is what Kevin has always wanted.

“I am also fine with this, so if you are going to school tomorrow then shouldn’t you be going to sleep now?”

Macie looks at the time on the clock and suddenly realizes how late it is.

“Mum, I’m going to take a bath and then go to sleep.”

Sunny nods her head, “Ok go on.”

Macie then walks into her room with her little legs.

Afterwards the only two people left in the living room are Sunny and Kevin.

Sunny then realizes that it is suddenly very quiet, even the sound of their breathing can be heard clearly.

“So how about I sleep on the sofa today.”

While Kevin says this he starts to sort out the sofa to sleep on and Sunny after being unable to bear seeing this anymore grits her teeth together and closes her eyes and says, “Its ok, you can sleep on the bed tonight.”

For Kevin this is certainly a big surprise to hear.

He straightens himself up and looks at Sunny, “Are you serious?”

The expression on Kevin’s face is like the satisfaction one would get after eating food which then makes Sunny unable to look at him directly and say, “Yes.”

Kevin and Sunny then enter the bedroom and the rest of the evening is completely indescribable.

At long last Macie who is feeling completely satisfied enters the kindergarten gates holding hands with both her mother and father. After she sees the person that was spreading rumours yesterday she waves at both Sunny and Kevin and loudly shouts.

“Goodbye mum and dad, remember to come pick me up this evening!”

The little boy walks over to her and although still has a tissue stuffed in his nose has a smile on his face and says, “Macie, are they your mother and father?”

Macie nods her head rather proudly, and then regardless of the nice things he is saying behind her she returns to class with a straight face.

However Sunny is a little curious, she has never seen Macie be so enthusiastic towards her.

“Could it be that with you here she is warmer towards me?”

Sunny looks at Kevin who is smiling like a fool waving at Macie and then denies this idea.

“Alright, let’s go. I feel like your brother and his wife have arrived already.”

Kevin and Sunny get inside the car and Kevin rubs his hands together and says, “When would you say it’s convenient for you to get our marriage certificate?”

Sunny is putting on her seat belt and when she hears these words her seat belt slides undone again.

“What did you say?”

She can’t believe what she just heard, she has experienced many things in life now so when faced with surprises she can’t help but feel doubtful.

“I’m saying, marry me.” Kevin pretends to look forward calmly however his heart is beating so fast that his hands are beginning to sweat.

“You see, our child is growing up and we have been through a lot together so are you willing to marry me?”

While talking he pulls something out from his pocket and hands it to Sunny.

“I prepared to give this to you 5 years ago on your birthday. I had already brought it for you however I had no time to give it to you, and then because of what happened to you I was afraid I would never have chance to say this to you again. So, if you are willing then please take this ring and let’s go and get our marriage certificate.”

Before Kevin felt that marriage was not essential, but now he realizes that it is essential, since this is the most effective way to make Sunny stay by his side.

Sunny feels as if she is dreaming so she then pinches her face and after she feels some pain from this she realizes that this is really happening.

“Have you really thought about it? If you really want to marry me then you can’t change your mind again.”

Sunny is still a little worried about it so she asks this question.

However this time, Kevin looks at her clearly and then replies, “I’ve thought long and hard about it and the person I want to marry in this life is you Sunny.”

Sunny is so touched by this she then puts the ring onto her finger and then shows off to Kevin, “It’s nice isn’t it?”

“It’s very nice.” Kevin looks deeply at her, “Then let’s go now and get our marriage certificate.”

As they are driving to the Civil Affairs Bureau, Kevin receives a call from Ellison.

“Where are you? We have arrived at your home but why is no one coming to open the door?”

Kevin replies a little gloomily, “We are outside right now. We have just taken our daughter to school, what’s the rush?”

Kevin does not finish speaking when Sunny interrupts him and says, “We are going back, in any case the ring is on my finger so I won’t run away from you now.”

Kevin looks at her, “Are you serious?”
