A Mysterious Man novel Chapter 112

Sunny is nestled in his arm, and responds, “Do you want to tell me that you have cheated on me? Is other woman pregnant with your child?”

Kevin knocks her head without a second thought after listening to her words, “What’s on your mind all the time?”

Sunny raises her head from his arm and answers him with a grimace.

“Alright, I’ll get straight to the point. This incident has already had a design on my brother. He is definitely not going to let them go. So, just leave this matter to us. All you need to do is to protect yourself. Are you with me?”

Sunny nods her head, “I understand, but…” Knowing about it is much different than being able to do it.

“I know what you are thinking about, and I can tell you clearly that you should not take yourself too seriously. This incident is not related to your return – it is just a coincidence. There are some people who will always try to muddy the water, and so your presence will only give others a misconception.”

“I don’t understand.”

“I wish you could just think of me. You don’t need to know anything else.”

“I’ll be a fool then. Do you like a fool?”

Kevin kisses her hair, “I don’t like the other fools, but I wish the one that in front of me could be a little more silly.”

“Hey, that’s too much!”

Kevin smirked, “Didn’t you ask me? I’m just telling the truth.”

Nevertheless, there is no need to be such honest!

Sunny raises her foot and steps on his foot hard.

“Darling, it hurts.”

Kevin is sounded whiny, and she just realizes that they’ve got a marriage certificate today.

“Does it hurt?”

She rubs his face with sympathy which is unlike her usual behavior. He thinks that his whining like a spoiled child works, and so he nods his head vigorously.

“Just rub it yourself then.”

She runs away from his arm after saying that. She is then standing at a safe place while laughing at his dumbfounded face.

“You naughty little evil! Just wait and see.”

Kevin’s first thought is that he won’t go easy on her tonight after he realizes what she did just now, “Just you wait!”

He reaffirms his initiative again when he watches her escaping.

“Only the fool will wait for you.”

Kevin is then following her, “Oh, walk slowly and be careful of my son!”

She stumbles when she hears it.

Ellison couple has also heard it, and look back at them with a surprised face, “Sunny, you are so good at it!”

Although Sunny can’t see Kelly’s facial expression, she is sure that it must be a teasing expression.

“Kevin, get out quickly to explain it!”

Kevin doesn’t feel anything when Sunny calls out his name. He is laughing in the back while ‘getting out’, “Darling is calling me. I’m coming.”

There is a timid voice at the door asking, “Daddy, who is your wife?”

It is Kevin who is surprised this time because he didn’t expect of his daring daughter to come back at this time.

So, he quickly changes his expression to a loving and generous one, and looks at the door, “Oh, my little fairy is coming back. Where did Troy take you to play today?”

Everyone gives him a disdainful look when hearing what he says.

However, Kevin turns a blind eye. He comes up to Macie and carries her, “Let me check if my daughter has gained any weight today. It seems like you are quite light.”

Out of his expectation, he realizes that the one who stands behind Macie is not Troy, but Baron.

“Why is it you? Where is Troy?”

Baron pouts toward the opposite door, “He can’t wake up.”

Originally it is a usual statement, but it is at this moment everyone’s face has changed.

“What do you mean by he can’t wake up?”

“That means he falls asleep, or what else do you think it means?”

……

Kevin is so angry that he slaps Baron on his back, “Don’t say half of the sentence, please. It’s easy to scare a person to death.”

Baron is still confused, “Did anything happen?”

Ellison suddenly remembers Baron’s identity at the moment, “Can you still contact your ex-subordinate now?”

Baron looks at him and nods obediently.

“Well, my driver was killed on the way back today. I'm investigating now. Can you help me to ask if you can get in touch with them?”

“What do you want to ask?

“Is any of my people not being honest?”

Baron nods his head and takes out his phone, “Do you want me to ask here on the spot or tell you after I go back to ask them?”

Ellison thinks for a while, “Just ask on the spot because I want to know it too.”

Baron nods and calls his trusted subordinate.

Baron doesn’t ask to the point after he gets through to him. Thus, Ellison grabs his phone, “Let me ask him.”

Baron looked at him without saying anything.

“Ricky Greer, right? Ellison Quinn speaking.”

Ricky Greer on the other end of the phone who talks endlessly at first is astonished after hearing the name, as though he suddenly chokes on water.

“Ellison, Ellison, you are Ellison Quinn?”

Ellison admits it by saying ‘yes’.

“What have you done to my young master? Why you take his phone? Are you kidnapping him? I can give you as much money as you want as long as you don’t lay a finger on my young master.”

Baron sighed when he listens to his subordinate on the other end of the phone that chickens out.

“Shut up and listen to me.”

That’s the way Ellison is. Ricky Greer has successfully turned off his talkaholic mode and showing his cute side after Ellison says shut up.

“Mr. Ellison, let me know if you have any order.”

……

“Do you know whether any group of people go to my place?”

Ricky Greer’s daring Mr. Ellison throws a difficult question at him when he comes up, “Hold on a minute. I’ll ask my subordinate.”

After that, the sound of footsteps and the door opening is heard, following by his sound, “You all come here!”

……

Ellison takes a glance at Baron, “You guys are usually……?”

Baron as their boss feels that his subordinate makes him embarrassed.

“They are not usually like this. Maybe I’m not getting in touch with them for a long time, and on top of that, they may be a little overexcited.”

Ellison nods his head in understanding.

Ricky Greer the little cutie still continues by saying, “Mr. Ellison called me to ask just now. Yes, exactly! It is that Mr. Ellison! He asks us whether there was anyone who has ever caused any trouble at his place.”

There is a man who boosting his courage and responds, “Who dares to cause trouble at Mr. Ellison’s place? Does anyone who wants to dig their own graves?”

……

Kevin doesn’t know what expression he should wear after hearing those words and looks at Ellison, “Although you are not in the underworld anymore, your legend is still all over the underworld.”

“You better shut up too.”

Ellison has finally finished waiting for Ricky to ask his subordinates and Ricky answers back the phone happily.

“Mr. Ellison, thank you for your waiting. Well, I have asked my subordinates, and one of them did see a few sneaky people staying at your place for a while.”

“Who did he see?”

“I don’t know. Someone just offered a cigarette to the doorkeeper and it seemed like they were inquiring about something.”

……

“Alright, I got it. Thanks.”

After hearing the last words, Ricky suddenly hesitated, “It’s my pleasure to help Mr. Ellison. There is no need for thanks.”

……

Ellison is too lazy to speak a word anymore. He straight away throws the phone to Baron.

“Bye.”

Baron also speaks concisely as usual. He hangs up the call immediately after saying the one word. He has been embarrassed today because of them.

The people beside them try to keep a straight face. After they seeing Baron hanging up the phone, they are all laughing out loud.

“Hahahahahahaha, I’ve never thought that Mr. Ellison is so brilliant and to my surprise, Baron’s subordinates are his fanboys…”

Kevin’s laughter is the most cheerful one, “I almost died laughing! Hahaha…”

Ellison raises his head and looks at him. He is grinning, “You are really happy, aren’t you?”

Kevin will usually be able to notice that this is the sign of his elder brother losing his temper, but there are a lot of things that have blocked his strong instinct. Thus, he is nodding his head when Ellison asks him.

“Then why don’t we count how often you’ve been to Jonathan’s place?”

Kevin’s smile fades when he hears of the words from Ellison as if he slams the brakes on.

“Bro~~~”

Ellison doesn’t buy it, “Do you want to tell the truth yourself or you want me to come back to you after asking Jonathan?”

“I confess, I confess. I’ve not been to…”

Kevin is chickening out like a coward now, and almost kneeling down to shout for his brother to spare his life.

“Do you still want to laugh?”

Kevin shakes his head violently, “There is nothing funny at all. I just don’t understand why you guys are so easily amused and even laugh like a fool!”

After he just finishes his words, Sunny who is beside him replies coldly, “Is it so?”

Kevin chickens out immediately again after listening to his wife, “No, no. What I mean is I’m the one who is so easily amused.”

“Alright, knock it off. Kevin, you should also be careful in these few days. They won’t let you go as well since they have designs on us.”

Kevin is naturally grateful for his brother that is rarely to not pull a long face when saying such a lengthy statement.

“Bro, I get it. You should take care of yourself, sister-in-law, and also my little nephew too.”

“How caring you are.”

Kelly suddenly laughs out loud, “You are really not leaving out any one of us.”

Kevin is the kind of a person whom you give an inch and he’ll take a mile. He forgets the matter that happened just now and is playing with her daughter happily now.

Only Sunny who is considerate, “Then you all shall stay the night here. I’ll tidy up a room for you guys.”

Ellison shakes his head, “Kelly and I still have some things to do, so we can’t stay over. I’ve called other people to fetch us. He should be here soon.”

The sound of a car horn from the downstairs can be heard after he has just finished talking.

“We are coming. Kevin, come and see us off.”

Kevin has to hold Macie to see them off as Ellison has ordered him to do so.

“Darling, you take a shower first. I’ll be back soon.”
