“Big sister, let’s talk this out. Don’t hit the child,” he said.
“You don’t know, this kid isn’t my own. His dad’s a murderer, got caught and got life. We took him in because he had nowhere to go. But look at this, the beam is crooked, and so is the column under it. We show sympathy for him, how does he repay us with his work?”
Hearing the Boss Lady’s words filled the child’s eyes with tears, though he forcibly held them back, unable to flow down. It seemed he resented the woman speaking ill of his biological father yet felt powerless to refute.
The harsh realities of life had already taught a teenager what it meant to compromise with reality.
“Adult issues should not be taken out on the child. At his age, he should not even be working,” he said.
Mario Yuno was upset by the woman’s high-handedness and arrogance, but he considered that if he intervened now, this woman would surely intensify her beating of the child after he left. So, he could only suppress his discomfort and advised her lightly.
“Big brother, you’re unaware of something. As the old saying goes, ‘Dragons beget dragons, phoenixes beget phoenixes, and the rat’s son will burrow holes.’ His dad committed bad deeds and got his retribution. Now that we’re this child’s guardians, to prevent him from turning out like his dad, we have to keep a tight watch on him,” she said.
She was measured in her words when dealing with patrons, but still, they were unpleasant to hear, indicating that when no one was around, she was undoubtedly even crueler to the child.
Upon hearing the Boss Lady repeatedly speak about his father, the child turned and ran away, angering the Boss Lady who pointed and cursed at him.
“You little bunny, if you run away don’t bother coming back, an unfathered wild child that nobody wants to raise!”
This entire scene was witnessed by Mario Yuno and others, even little Chloe sitting next to Isaac saw it, and her expression immediately showed something was wrong.
The Boss Lady seemed to want to chase after the child, but Mario Yuno stopped her.
“Big sister, stop hitting the child. We’ll buy whatever he dirtied, but you have to promise not to hit him again,” he said.
Kiara rolled her eyes. Look! His savior complex is kicking in again!
He has the face of a domineering CEO but spends his days doing things only a saint would care about!
But then she thought, in her past life, her bond with Mario Yuno started because of his savior complex, didn’t it?
In her past life, Kiara tried to jump into a river to end her life, and it was Mario Yuno who saved her.
Thinking this, Kiara was not as disgusted with his random acts of generosity anymore.
Hearing that Mario Yuno would pick up the tab, the Boss Lady immediately smiled as radiantly as a flower, “This big brother at first glance isn’t ordinary, such a good heart. Alright, if you pay for him I won’t hit him anymore. Please follow me this way.”
As she turned around, she muttered to herself, “This child, ah, not being your own just doesn’t work out, can’t get them to rely on you, say a few words and off he runs. We’ll have to make him find his way back soon.”
Isaac, presumably a dialect term for ‘father’, after coming to this home, the child learned to call the Boss Lady and Boss ‘Isaac’ and ‘mom’, but even with the change of addressing them, they did not treat him as part of the family.
The Boss Lady was complaining about the child’s inability to be raised by others as she led Mario Yuno downstairs, Kiara, seeing this, left Isaac and Chloe behind and followed Mario Yuno downstairs.
As they were settling the bill, Kiara whispered something in the Boss Lady’s ear. Her face turned green immediately.
“Is that true?!”
“Absolutely. We often come here to eat, so naturally, we notice more than others. Please be kinder to that child. He must have seen something that made him worry about you, leading to his distraction and mistakes. Think about it, even if he’s not your own flesh and blood, he still cares about you. If you keep hitting him, who can you count on when you’re old and have no one else to rely on?”
“Yes, yes, yes, I’ll think about it carefully…” The Boss Lady’s face softened and her heart was moved by Kiara’s words, and she muttered to herself, “It seems I can’t always beat the child.”
Mario Yuno stared at Kiara in astonishment, Dear, what exactly did you trick them into?
Kiara raised her head in proud disdain, Brainwashing people is my specialty, definitely more efficient than your way of spending money like some naive philanthropist!
When they descended the stairs, Zoe’s mood had visibly darkened, clearly having taken in everything that was said.
On the way home, Kiara held a large bunch of kebabs that her man had bought and which had fallen on the ground, and the two searched for stray cats and dogs along the road.
“Wife, why do you have to take them out? Why not just throw them away?” Mario Yuno just wanted to get home and try making a baby with his wife, but his wife insisted on packing up the kebabs he had bought, so now the two of them were looking for cats and dogs along the road.
“Just a little further ahead, there should be plenty of stray dogs in the park–I’d rather feed cats and dogs than leave any for that fat woman. Didn’t you notice as soon as we left, she’d take the skewers back, process them a bit, and then resell them?”
That’s just Kiara’s character; she had money, but wouldn’t let just anyone take advantage of her. Since Mario Yuno had purchased them, they had to be packed up and taken away. If people couldn’t eat them, then animals would.
Mario Yuno realized she had a point. Since he got himself into this, he had to listen to his wife and deal with the aftermath. Thinking about what had happened at the Grill House, Mario Yuno couldn’t help but ask,
“Kiara, what exactly did you say to them?”
How could the notoriously ferocious Boss Lady change her attitude so quickly after just a few whispers from her?
“It wasn’t much, really. I just told her that the last time we were here, her husband was getting cozy with a young waitress. The child happened to see it and had a few words with the waitress, and then he got ostracized by the whole staff.”
“…So you created a distraction by spreading rumors?!” Mario Yuno was speechless. How could such a sincere-looking face say such things?
“It’s not entirely making up rumors. We often come to this restaurant, and you can tell what kind of person the owner is. Even if there isn’t any substantial relationship with the waitress, some inappropriate touching definitely happened. These men who rise from the bottom to become small bosses like to do these things.”
Wasn’t her estranged father, Rico Clark, exactly like that? He started a restaurant and then became involved with the waitress, Scarlett. Kiara had encountered the Grill House Boss a few times and those glances he gave the waitresses were decidedly off.
All she did was use this information to shift the focus of the conflict. In the future, the Boss Lady probably wouldn’t treat the adopted child as her own, but she wouldn’t abuse him at will either. The Boss Lady would certainly want to have an informant keep an eye on the Boss, and if the child was cunning, he could use it to his advantage to avoid some suffering.
When they got to the park, they indeed saw some stray dogs. Kiara took all the meat off the skewers and scattered them on the ground, drawing the dogs over before long.
“Wife, I often see you feeding cats and dogs. Do you like animals? How about we get one ourselves? I’ve had it with Gildan Yount for a while now. His wife has a little Jingba, and they go for walks every day. That guy struts around so smugly. If we got a big dog, and our dog chased his around and bit it, how would that be?”
“Childish! No way! Our home is absolutely no place for pets.”
Kiara thought keeping up with him was already challenging enough as he was perpetually acting like a clown. Adding cats or dogs to the mix would be just too much for her to handle.
Mario Yuno saw her determined stance and said nothing more, joining her in feeding the dogs. When they were about done, Kiara took out a tissue to wipe the grease off her hands, ready to throw it in the trashcan, when suddenly they heard someone crying.
