“You’re here to look for someone,” replied Avril calmly with her arms crossed.
Huh? How did she know?
Juan looked astonished while Kyle furrowed his brows. Can she really read minds? Or perhaps it’s just
a wild guess?
Seeing how the two were still unconvinced, Avril confidently added, “In fact, the person you’re looking
for is a man.”
Looking at the astounded children, Avril cleared her throat before continuing, “I also know that he looks
exactly like you.”
Seeing how Avril got everything right, Juan gaped at her in shock. Do mind-readers really exist?
Kyle stared at Avril with his piercing gaze and thought of two possibilities. Either she can really read
minds, or she knows something.
“If you can really read minds, tell me what I’m thinking right now.” Kyle decided to test the self-
proclaimed mind-reader.
At that, Avril pretended like she was focusing on her power. “You’re wondering how I knew you’re
looking for someone, aren’t you?”
Kyle shook his head. “No. I’m thinking you must’ve seen the person we’re looking for, haven’t you?”
Avril fell silent.
My, my! I didn’t expect this little guy to see through me like that. What a smart kid.
Hearing Kyle’s words, Juan then looked expectantly at Avril. “Did you really see someone who looks
like us? You look like a nice lady, I’m sure you’ll tell us where he is, right?”
Avril sneered at the two and said nothing in response. I do know where he is, but why should I tell
them?
“Someone as pretty as you must have a kind heart, so would you please tell us? It’s been so long since
we last saw Daddy. We miss him a lot.” Juan put on his boyish charm while Kyle nodded and made a
sound of agreement.
Looking at the boys with two different personalities, Avril inquired, “That man’s your father? Then
what’s his relationship to Sir Musgrave?”
Avril believed that the two men shared a special relationship. Otherwise, Evan would not have risked
his life just to see Stephen.
On the other hand, the children were surprised to realize that the woman knew their grandfather. So not
only has she seen Daddy, but she also knows Grandpa? Then, should we tell her the truth?
Avril could tell that they were hesitant, so she suggested, “How about I tell you where your Daddy and
Sir Musgrave are, and you tell me their relationship?”
After some thought, Kyle replied, “Sir Musgrave’s our Grandpa.”
The word “Grandpa” shocked Avril, she never expected Stephen to have grandchildren that old. And
here I thought we could run away together and have our own children.
Looking at the boys, Avril could not help imagining them calling her newborn baby their uncle. Now that
would have been a horrible sight to behold!
“Now it’s your turn to tell us where they are.” Juan’s voice pulled Avril back to reality.
She cleared her throat and answered, “Your Daddy’s with your Grandpa.”
“And where exactly is our Grandpa?”
“The Wicked House, but you’ll never find it, so go home. It’s too dangerous for you to run around in the
Wicked Palace.”
“We’re not running around, we live here.”
“You live in the Wicked Palace?”
“Yup! Our Mommy lives here too.”
Avril suddenly remembered hearing that Levant brought a woman back with him a few days ago, and
the woman had four children.
Realization finally dawned on her that the boys were Levant’s stepsons. So why would Levant imprison
Stephen here if he wanted to be with the man’s daughter? What kind of b*stard treats his future father-
in-law like that? I have to warn Stephen’s daughter not to marry that b@stard!
