Baby, I Found for You an Awesome Daddy

Gavyn hurriedly got up and patted the soil off his body. Then he said with a goofy smile, “Not too long, only a month.”

“I’ve told you that according to your stamina, your hands would not be able to keep up with your brains if you stopped practicing for even 10 days. Do you even listen to me?” Nathan approached coldly. “What have you been doing for the past month? How did you train when I wasn’t around you?”

“No, no, sir, I’ve been practicing. It’s me… Ah, I’m sorry, Sir. I went gambling. You know I have this hobby, I…”

Clap! Clap!

Nathan raised his hand and slapped Gavyn in the face. “You know your body isn’t well. Even a week can cause your life to be in danger if your muscles weaken. You can die and no one would care, but who would replace you after you die?”

“Dad, aren’t you being too cold-hearted?” Freddie was very protective over Gavyn. He immediately ran in front of him and shielded Gavyn with his hands. “Uncle Gavyn has been with you for so many years. Even if he didn’t achieve anything, he worked hard. How can you treat him this way? He didn’t do anything wrong.”

“No, sir. Your father isn’t wrong.” Gavyn lowered his head. “Sir, Clarkson has been with you for so many years. You gave me the job and I got hurt for you. My reputation is also because of you. I am your loyal dog. I’ve always been clear of my identity.”

“You!” Nathan was stunned. “Do you think this was what I meant?”

“A leopard can’t change his spots.” Gavyn’s point was on these words. “I know gambling isn’t good but I can’t control myself. I know my body can’t take it even if I stopped practicing for a day but I get tired of doing this for so many years. Lying down is really much more comfortable for me than standing up.”

“Are you trying to piss me off?” Nathan pulled Freddie away and grabbed Gavyn’s collar tightly with his hands. “I am really a failure. I can’t make my son listen to me and I can’t make my employee listen to me either!”

“Sir, I didn’t mean to…” Gavyn felt helpless.

“You didn’t mean to… Ahem, ahem…” Nathan started to cough violently all of a sudden.

Gavyn immediately helped him up. “Sir, sir! Are you alright? Don’t be mad, okay? I’ll train with you every day from today onwards. I won’t let my muscles weaken. I’ve been eating chicken breast and wheat bread all along.”All content is © N0velDrama.Org.

Nathan pushed him away and turned around to lay on his bed.

This was Freddie’s first time seeing his father acting so irrationally and furious to the point he didn’t know what to do.

“Sir.” Gavyn half knelt down before his bed and said, “This time we came here to… ask you to discipline us. We are your soldiers abroad and we can also be your sword in the country.”

“Do you really think that I care about you protecting me?” Nathan didn’t even look at him.

“Sir… ”

“If it wasn’t for Seven, if he didn’t suggest for us… I don’t even know that you lived such a reckless life when I’m not here!”

Gavyn lowered his head in shame.

At this moment, Freddie finally understood the reason behind his father’s anger-Gavyn and the rest were his trusted aides. Instead of saying that his father was worried that no one would be able to replace Gavyn in the future, it was more appropriate to say his father couldn’t get used to Uncle Gavyn’s absence.

“Gavyn, let Father rest for a while first,” Freddie spoke first.

“This… ”

“Get the hell out of here.”

“Yes, Sir.”

Freddie left the ward with Gavyn. The two of them sat on chairs in the corridor of the hospital.

Gavyn didn’t say anything. After a moment of silence, Freddie said, “Uncle Gavyn, you’ve always supported me in everything in my life. You are very important to me. Of course, to my father as well.”

“Our affairs have put you in a difficult spot.”

“No, I just feel… that there is a misunderstanding between you two.”

A misunderstanding?

Of course, there was a misunderstanding.

Sir did everything for his own good but he can’t control his own selfish desires. It was a big misunderstanding, a misunderstanding that could not be resolved.

Gavyn smiled and sighed, “Freddie, you would need to take over the family business in the future. Both your father and I will grow old one day. You just look smart but the truth is you’re useless.”

“You…” Freddie was very angry.

“What’s wrong? Did I say something wrong?” Gavyn snorted. “Your father was able to recruit me by the time he was eight.”

“He was able to recruit you?” Freddie was alarmed.

“There was always a rumor that I only followed him after becoming a mercenary. That’s bullsh*t. I became a mercenary because of him. He wanted me to gain some reputation before working for him so no one would dare to assassinate him. It’s weird to think about it. He has never been assassinated before facing AN. ”

“So, did he reject AN because of me or…”

“Don’t think about nonsense all day long. Who is your father? Do you think he’s a piece of sh*t like the other families? he rejected AN because he didn’t want to be tied down. Everything is over once he’s tied down. I’m not talking about the family but the soul. Do you understand?”

“The soul…?” Wasn’t that non-existent? Freddie didn’t take it seriously.

“I knew you wouldn’t understand. Having a soul is to be true to yourself. Your true self is made from your soul. Your soul will reflect on your true self. Don’t think that I’m just a fighter but I didn’t waste so many years following Sir.”

Freddie fell into deep thought.

“You still have a long way to go if you want to surpass your father. Back then, your father was…”

“Hello.”

A crisp female voice interrupted them.

Sheryl smiled and bowed, “Nice to meet you, Uncle Gavyn. I’m Shane and Charlotte’s daughter. You can call me Sheryl.”

Gavyn looked her up and down. “You know me?”

“Woblar Clarkson, to be honest, I never understood why Eflait named people so simply. I’ve seen a dessert shop named soap before but there’s a soap shop named Crepe beside the dessert shop. It was so weird.”

“That’s because they have a limited set of vocabulary. They can’t think of names like ‘Fish and Frogs’ in the country.”

“I think it’s because they’re located in a cold place. People in cold places don’t really like to use their brains so most mercenaries from Eflait are unreasonable people. But Uncle Gavyn, you’re different.” Sheryl sat down beside Freddie. “I asked Uncle Peter before I came, he told me you had a 100% military record when you were at Woblar.”

“Little girl, do you doubt my identity?” Gavyn squinted. This girl in front of him was much more interesting than Freddie.

Sheryl shook her head and said, “I don’t doubt your identity. I just thought it wasn’t wise for someone as smart as Nathan to establish Eflait alone. So I wanted to ask if you had a twin?”

Twin!?

Did Gavyn have a brother?

Freddie widened his eyes as he started to think.

“Who told you this? Or should I say, who asked you to test me?” Gavyn’s face was also very dark. If the girl before him wasn’t Shane’s daughter, he would’ve have grabbed her by the collar and forced an answer from her. Only Sir and he knew this secret.

Yes, even Nathan’s son, Freddie, didn’t know about this. How did this little girl know about it?

It was absolutely impossible for her to figure it out on her own. It was absolutely impossible.

No one could do that.

The only possibility was that she had a powerful team behind her, but… but she looked too calm!
