Chapter 1189 - Chapter 1189 Chapter 1161 Why Cry and Still Not Admit It

Chapter 1189: Chapter 1161: Why Cry and Still Not Admit It Chapter 1189: Chapter 1161: Why Cry and Still Not Admit It After smoothing things over with his mother-in-law, Benjamin Clark and his wife, Beautiful Lady, led Beautiful Lady back home. Arlong hopped over to open the door. His leg still couldn’t walk like a normal person, but he could hobble a few steps with the help of crutches.

“Brother-in-law! You came back just in time, I have something I want to discuss with you!”

Kiara gave Mario Yuno a meaningful glance, and Mario Yuno cleared his throat, “Just in time, I also have something to talk to you about. Let’s go to the small bedroom.”

Once in the small bedroom, Arlong couldn’t wait to make his request.

“Brother-in-law, can I return to the company? The assessment is coming up, and I can’t keep lying around at home. I can sit in a wheelchair and practice. I’ve thought about it for a long time, and I’m not going to ask for any reward from the higher-ups for this incident. All I ask is for you to approve my return to learn. If that really doesn’t work, can you deduct it from my salary?”

The kid had only been at home for a few days, but he couldn’t stand it. He thought about all his friends and the addictive feeling of studying and answering questions. Once enlightened, it’s an extremely addictive feeling.

“Well… cough, cough, Arlong, I have something to tell you. I just want to ask you one thing. Do you want to become an excellent man, or do you want to protect your sister?”

“Do we even need to ask? I want to be an excellent man and then protect my sister!”

“What if you could only choose one?”

Seeing Arlong’s confused face, Mario Yuno started to play dirty. His eyes began to dart towards the door. He made sure that his daughter-in-law would be able to hear before saying to Arlong.

“Your sister, this profligate woman, is too disobedient. She’s caused trouble again. Her patients have problems, but she insists on medical ethics and won’t let go. Without concrete evidence, we can’t send someone to protect your sister. You know how busy the company is, there’s no spare manpower. Now it’s all on you. Only you can protect your sister, but if you do, your assessment is finished, and you’ll have to return to the Old Unit. You’ll have to try again next year.”

After Mario Yuno finished speaking, he saw Arlong wearing an expression as if he’d been struck by lightning, completely still.

The mischievous brother-in-law was even putting words in Arlong’s head, underpants, big underpants~

This child was pitiable, from a life filled with confusion and wasting away his days, to finally finding a goal after much experience, then suddenly being notified that he had to choose between his aspirations and family ties.

“Of course, if you don’t want to deal with our home’s willful profligate woman, brother-in-law won’t blame you. If you return to the company, I’ll approve special training for you alone. With my approval, you can pick any trainer you want, and practice however you like all day long. After all, your injury came from doing the right thing, and this treatment should be given to you. You know with this treatment, staying at the company is a sure thing.”

“Is there no one else who can protect my sister?” Arlong was enticed by the conditions Mario Yuno offered but still worried about Kiara.

“Right now, we don’t have spare people, and I can’t tie up your sister. Also, there may be other unknown things behind the Moore Clan waiting for us to uncover. Let’s put it this way, if you go protect your sister and help us find evidence of the Moore Clan doing wrong, the company will give you a verbal commendation, then you’d have to go back to laboring, and if you protect your sister and find nothing, not even a verbal commendation, it’s still back to labor. But your sister will be safe, and she’ll be happy. How will you choose?”

Seeing Arlong in a dilemma, Mario Yuno patted his shoulder, “Brother-in-law knows this is tough for you, who asked us to end up with such a headstrong young lady? I’ll give you a day to think it over, and tell me when you’ve decided.”

Kiara was fuming as she listened from outside. She was certain that Mario Yuno was settling a private score each time he mentioned ‘young lady,’ he must have cursed her countless times in his heart!

Kiara thought that Arlong wouldn’t give up this opportunity, after all the child had just found his life’s ambition. He was so desperate to stay at the company headquarters, carrying the hopes of his Old Unit on his shoulders.

Mario Yuno had not reached the door when Arlong stopped him.

“Brother-in-law, I don’t need to think it over anymore, I’ll stay with my sister,” said Arlong.

Kiara was surprised by the outcome, but Mario Yuno just smiled.

“Have you thought it through? Let me leak a little insider info to you. Based on your current scores and performance, the odds of you passing the assessment are very high. Isn’t it a pity to give up such an opportunity for your capricious sister?”

“This is what I owe my sister… Brother-in-law, let me tell you something I’ve never told anyone before. The truth is, I really didn’t know when my dad hid my sister’s Admission Notice. When she brought the issue to light later on, I didn’t give it much thought at that age and just felt that what my dad did was wrong. But now that I’ve grown up and seen more of life, I think I understand.”

“What do you understand?” asked Mario Yuno.

“I understand that back then, my dad simply wanted to keep all the opportunities for me. Including that day my mom talked about the melon, I remember now. Whatever good food we had at home, my dad always let me have it first, and whatever was left went to my sister. If there was nothing left, then my sister got nothing. But even so, she would still save something for me, even if it meant scrimping through her own needs.”

All the things that were incomprehensible during those younger years suddenly seemed to make sense.

This time, after experiencing the incident of Kiara crying and wanting to give him a blood transfusion, Arlong seemed to have grown up all of sudden. He realized how much he had unintentionally taken away from his sister during their childhood.

Even though none of it had been his conscious doing, it was because of him that such an outstanding girl had to endure such an unfair childhood.

Being the only boy in the family, his father always gave the best to him, depriving his sister of everything yet, despite this, his sister still devotedly nurtured him until he matured and came into his own.

“I’ve grown up now, and I haven’t made much money yet since I just started working. I can’t do much for my sister, but if she needs me now, then I’ll go to her,” Arlong declared.

“You don’t want to stay at headquarters anymore?” asked Mario Yuno.

“Of course, I do. But my sister is more important than that. It’s okay, I can spend another year working with the Team Leader back home. Coming back next year is not a big deal.”

“Good!” Mario Yuno patted Arlong’s shoulder, feeling very gratified.

His daughter-in-law’s many years of love and care for this brat had not been in vain. Seeing Arlong’s attitude, his daughter-in-law must surely be happy.

So, Mario Yuno explained some details to Arlong, including how to speak with Kiara, how to investigate and gather evidence, and what to do in case of emergencies. Arlong listened, his blood boiling with excitement, admiring his brother-in-law’s strategic acumen while also feeling happy about being able to protect his sister.

Outside the door, Kiara silently walked away and sat on the bay window, looking outside. The Beautiful Lady leaned in curiously, looking at the droplets on her face. Kiara wiped away her tears, “I’m fine, some dust got in from the room, it’s just irritating my eyes.”

Yeah, she’d never admit that she was moved by Arlong’s words.

Dust?

The Beautiful Lady was puzzled; there was no dust around.

Humans are truly complex creatures, she thought. Why deny crying?
