“Granny, don’t worry!” Jaybie replied happily.The two of them left the villa and got into Maxwell’s Rolls-Royce.After the car left, Sonnet also left the villa area and took a taxi to Ocean Garden.As Lewis was driving with a kid in the vehicle, he was not going very fast.After Sonnet arrived at Ocean Garden, she got out of the car and looked around. She immediately saw Jaybie and Maxwell.One was tall and one was short; one was big and one was small. Both of them had outstanding looks. In the midst of the crowd, they could be recognized at a single glance.People around were also attracted to them, looking at them one after another.Jaybie held his head high, took Maxwell by the hand, and walked to a dolphin sculpture at the entrance of Ocean Garden. He began looking around.Sonnet hid in the shadows, watching them. After waiting for about five minutes, she saw a tall man walking toward them.Since he was facing away from Sonnet, she could only see that he was wearing black
In the stands of the sea lion performance hall, there were already many spectators sitting. There was loud music blaring, and it was deafening to the ears.After Sonnet entered, she began scanning the crowd, searching for the three’s figures.After two rounds of searching, she finally found the three in the front row facing the stage.She did not dare to sit too close to them and could only sit far away.Soon, the sea lion performance began.Sonnet had never seen this kind of performance before, but as she watched, she became completely absorbed.After the sea lions performed several programs, it was time for the audience interaction segment. “Now, we need a few children to come on stage and interact with the sea lions. Who would like to volunteer?” the host said on stage.Many children below stood up and raised their hands, and Jaybie in the front row also stood up, waving his hand vigorously. The host immediately picked a few children, and Jaybie was one of them.Jaybie w
Moreover, even after all the fuss, Sonnet still did not see the true face of Mr. Sunglasses!Oh well, maybe she should just head back. In any case, when Jaybie came back, she could just take out Hayden’s photo and ask Jaybie if he was Mr. Sunglasses.Then, she shook her head again and decided against it. She was already here. It would be best not to let Jaybie know. What if there was something Hayden did not want others to know? She could figure out the truth first, and it still would not be too late to let Jaybie know who he was.Hence, she waited outside the sea lion show.It was already autumn, so why was the sun still so scorching hot? After waiting for a while, she was sweating profusely. Seeing a nearby cold drink stand, she licked her lips and decided to buy a bottle of iced water.When she came back with the iced water, she saw the audience coming out of the sea lion performance hall. The performance had ended.She drank the iced water and stared at the crowd without
Mr. Sunglasses was still wearing a mask and a cap, which covered most of his face.However, probably due to the dim light in the cave, he finally took off his sunglasses.Although only his eyes were visible, Sonnet recognized right away that Mr. Sunglasses was Hayden! She had a deep impression of his eyes when she first met him. His eyes were slender, and he looked very gentle when he looked at others.She was sure that Mr. Sunglasses was Hayden! Sonnet’s mind was in turmoil, and she thought about it for a long while. When she came back to her senses, Jaybie and the others’ boat had already left the cave.Sonnet insisted on completing her job as a puppet mouse before leaving the cave.After she went outside, she searched for the three people’s figures, but she could not find them anymore.Sonnet left Ocean Garden full of doubts. On her way back, she kept thinking, ‘Why on earth does Hayden want to be Mr. Sunglasses?’Was it a coincidence or intentional when he suddenly appea
“I’ll treat you to an ice cream,” Maxwell said as he lowered his head and glanced at Jaybie, who was lying in his arms. Jaybie had a weak body. He fell asleep from exhaustion after playing for a while. “You’re so stingy. Is that all you’re going to treat me to?” Hayden puffed out his cheeks. Maxwell cast an impatient glance at him and said, “Do you want it? Never mind if you don’t want it!” “I’m having it! Of course, I’m having it!” Hayden exclaimed. He then got up to buy the ice cream. “I’ll get the most expensive one!” “Help me buy an ice cream as well,” Maxwell added. A couple of minutes later, the two men licked at their ice cream, standing opposite each other. Hayden laughed out loud while eating his. “I’d like to use my phone to snap a photograph of you having ice cream. I’ll show everyone how Mr. Brooks eats his ice cream!” Maxwell rolled his eyes at him and said, “Be more serious.” Hayden immediately stood straight. He leaned towards him and said, “If th
Hayden glanced at Maxwell gleefully. He laughed out loud and said, “Sure! Of course, you can do that!” He then stood up and moved his face closer to Jaybie. “Cough cough.” Hayden turned around, saw the icy expression on Maxwell’s face, and turned away from Jaybie. “Well, we’re both men. It’s rather cheesy if we kiss each other. Let’s do a high five instead!” Jaybie puffed up his chest proudly when Hayden referred to him as a man. “Sure, we should do a high five since we’re men!” Hayden reached out his hand. Jaybie reached out his small hand and clapped down on Hayden’s hand. After the high five, Maxwell carried Jaybie in his arms and stood up. “Let’s go home, Jaybie.” Jaybie thought that it was rather sudden. He looked at Maxwell in confusion and asked, “We’re leaving now?” It felt like they could still chat for longer! Mr. Sunglasses did not say that he was leaving. Hayden glanced at Maxwell. He noticed the unhappy frown on his face. He immediately said, “It
Maxwell immediately walked over to interrupt them, “Uncle Myles, I bought you your favorite peach crisps!” He had asked Lewis to pass by a shop to buy some peach crisps on the way back. Myles smiled brightly when he saw the peach crisps. “Oh, I was craving them and you bought them for me!” He started eating happily. Maxwell sat beside him and watched him as he ate. Sophia, who was sitting by the side, was looking at her phone. Suddenly, she sighed heavily, “Oh, why did it drop again?!” She spoke very loudly and caught everyone’s attention. “Grandmother, what dropped?” Lune asked her curiously. “The share prices! I didn’t have the time to look at it just now. I decided to take a look since I’m free right now. I didn’t expect the prices to drop to the limit during the market’s closing!” Sophia said in a pained voice. “Grandmother, did you buy shares again?” Jaybie had a dark expression on his face. “It’s way too risky to buy shares. Mom wouldn’t let you buy any sh
After speaking, Sophia and Myles exchanged a gaze. “It might be a coincidence,” Myles said softly. “It must be a coincidence. Isn’t he mentally impaired? How can he understand the share market?” Sophia said, pointing at her head. Both of them remained quiet for a while. Myles then said, “Let’s keep observing him.” The next day, when Maxwell came over, Sophia asked him about the share market again. Maxwell pointed at one of the shares and said, “Buy this one. It looks good.” “Why does it look good?” Sophia asked. “It’s just good,” Maxwell said with a nonchalant expression. He made it sound like he could not explain things to her. The next day, the price of the share that he had pointed out rose again. Myles started getting suspicious too. He asked Maxwell, “Do you know how to analyze the share market?” Maxwell shook his head and said, “I don’t understand anything.” “How did you manage to advise Aunt York correctly every single time?” “I was just looking at
