A Mysterious Man

Chapter 92 Ham Omelette



Chapter 92 Ham Omelette

Jonathan gets shocked when he hears the words, "Are you going to finally treat your poison?"

"Yeah." Kevin says, "I still want to live, hope dies last they say."

Jonathan chuckles and says, "Yes they say that. It is been quite a while now but if you do well, you

might succeed."

Kevin doesn't expect to be cured, he just hopes to clean the blood in order to have few more years to

live.

"How is my big brother doing?" Kevin remembers that when he rejected the treatment, Ellison was so

angry that he almost burned the house.

Ellison reacted badly to Kevin’s stubbornness and spoke out of anger, "Don't expect me to help you dig

your own grave, I will not attend your funeral either." They have not spoken in years as he went on a

journey around the world with Kelly.

He only knows that Jonathan has always been his brother's spokesman, but it only works one way, if

Kevin asks for news, nothing is known.

"Your brother is doing quite well, and you are an uncle now."

Jonathan inadvertently drops a bomb while holding the steering wheel firmly.

"My brother has a baby?"

Kevin nearly jumps out of the car at that new.

"Yes, your little nephew is so cute, with round eyes, he is so dynamic."

Kevin feels lost. He has missed so much in the past years. He didn't protect his love ones, did not take

care of his brother nor took care of his own body.

Jonathan notices that Kevin is feeling blue, so he unravels Ellison’s plan, "Don’t be too sad. According

to what your brother said, he is on his way back, he wants you to choose the name for your nephew."

Kevin cannot believe it, "Really?!"

Jonathan nods, "We spoke yesterday and he said that the kid is feeling a little unease so they will be

back soon."

Hearing this new, Kevin's mood improves slightly, "Well, I have to think of a wonderful name now."

All the bad things he has done over the past years, lose their importance.

"Here, how can someone live here?"

A scene of unique squalor appears before Jonathan's eyes. "Can people really live in a place like this

one?"

Kevin nods preparing himself to knock at Greg Reed's house.

No one comes to open the door, so he looks back at Jonathan.

"Allow me, you are still weak." Jonathan raises his leg kicks hard the door.

Useless to mention, the door cracks in two and falls on the ground.

They look at each other, and then go in. Jonathan sharpens his eyes and notices something on the

floor. Text © by N0ve/lDrama.Org.

It is a red agate earring.

He walks over, thinks about it and then picks up the earring with the sleeve wrapped around his hand,

just to make sure not to leave any fingerprint, "May it belongs to my apprentice?"

Kevin shakes his head, "Your apprentice doesn't like such bright colours."

Jonathan nods, "This may be evidence, keep it well."

The search into the house keeps going.

Nobody have lived in the house for a long time, the spiders took over filling the walls with webs and the

amount of dust is insane, hard to breath.

Jonathan covers his mouth making a disgusted moan, observing all the garbage left around.

"I truly feel sorry for this man, living in this house was not enough, he has been poisoned to death too."

Kevin agrees with a simple nod.

The earring is the only evidence they found after a meticulous search.

"Jonathan, do you know how and where the poison has been made?"

Kevin wants to track down the killers tracing the poison back to its origin.

Jonathan shakes his head. "Synthesization of poison is very random, you can make it at home by

yourself."

...Who invented this poison? That was random too!

Kevin goes to check if the water in the well presents some irregular aspects but it is a long shot, too

many years have passed. The evidences have been wiped by the weather, the earring itself has been

worn out by time, even the colours are all faded.

"There is nothing more to be discovered in Greg’s place, let's head back."

Kevin nods. He takes a last stroll just to make sure they did not miss anything.

Sunny, back at home is looking for the right words to give Macie a bad new but she is eating and

Sunny doesn't want to ruin her meal.

"Macie, now you are a big girl, and do you know what big girls do? They go to school with their peers"

When Macie finds out that the mother wants to send her to school she whines and tears, squeezing her

eyes and puts on a nice staging.

Sunny is not easy to fool though and goes ruthless, "Quit with the act already, you are a big girl but not

that big to fool me. I have already contacted the school for you, do you want me to take you there or do

you prefer to be accompanied by your two uncles?"

Macie glances at the door in the other side of the room and thinks about her uncles still asleep, does

she really have a choice?

She can only say aggrieved, "You take me there mommy."

Sunny chuckles. The little one is madly cute.

"Mommy is a badass, isn’t she?"

When the school is on sight Macie begins to walk like a man toward the gallows and the teacher, who’s

waiting for her, is brutally compared to the hangman waving his hand to take her life away.

"Mrs. Ellen, don't worry, we will take good care of Macie. She is in good hands now, be at ease."

After all due explanations were given to the dean, Sunny pats Macie's head, "Atta girl, don't make

troubles, I will pick you up after school."

Macie, not happy, says, "I want uncle to come and pick me up!"

"Okay, I'll tell your uncle then, go in with the teacher now."

The dean bends down and takes Macie's hand, "Macie, let's go to the playground and meet your

teachers."

Macie turns her head every step while she was walking into the school. She looks at the daughter until

she disappears behind the doors. She turns around and goes on her way.

The phone rings, anonymous number it says, Sunny picks up the call to hear, "You are back after all."

That voice, calls for an unpleasant feeling in her heart, "Who are you, how do you know that? Are you

stalking me?"

A chill shivers down the spine.

"I would not go that far. I have to say I am impressed. You have survived, was it luck?"

Sunny sneers, "Bella…what do you care?"

"Sunny, if I'm not living happily, why should you? I told you, I will haunt you to death. Hahaha."

"Psycho."

Sunny hangs up. She glances back at the school and many bad images emerge in her mind. She is

concerned now, she wants to take Macie back...

Then she thinks about it, Macie just went in, taking her away now will do no good to her. It is better to

pick her up earlier in the afternoon.

When Sunny gets home, the two uncles are already awake and Troy is peeping out of the door.

When he sees Sunny coming out of the elevator, his eyes light up, "What happened?"

Sunny's face is ghastly, "Bella called."

Troy assumes a frown, "How does she know about us..."

Sunny burst out, "She is been stalking Kevin!"

They both feel dizzy, "What does she wants and why now?"

Troy feels the same way, "She wants revenge, Bella is dangerous and unpredictable, we have got to be

extremely careful, where is Macie?"

"I just dropped her at school and one of you two has to go and pick her up later this afternoon."

"What’s your plan?"

"I will go to find a job for living, we gotta eat no?"

"A job, wait up, I have found it for you, come and take a look."

Troy is euphoric about it, "I found a doctor's position in the city hospital, and sent your CV, they want

you there this afternoon."

Sunny's eyes widens as he speaks, "Really?"

"Really indeed. Have your master ever lied to you?"

"Thank you so much, really..."

Sunny's eyes get wet. She would not have survived without their constant cares and affection.

"Shut up… just make some food, I'm hungry."

...

No more emotional moments after those words, Sunny’s mood went from unconditional love to

stiffness. "Keep dreaming."

"Oh, you have to honour your master. Go prepare.”

"What would you like to eat, Sir?"

"Ham omelette."

He likes the same things that Macie likes making Sunny wonders if Troy is her biological father.

"What does your husband want to eat?"

"My husband..." Troy is full of indignation and says. "My husband?! I obviously am the man in this

relationship!"

As soon as he finishes the sentence a cold voice sounds from behind, "Say that again?"

Troy trembles at that sound, "Ahem, that, by the way, my apprentice has something to tell you."

He plans to slip away, but Maud grabs his collar, and with it still in the hands, looks at Sunny Ellen,

"What did you want to tell me?"

"...What would you like to have for breakfast?"

"Anything."

Sunny nods, hesitates and goes, "Bella called me, I..."

Maud looks straight into Sunny’s eyes, "What did she say?"

Sunny repeats the words to him, and Maud's face whitens from fear, "Just keep living as nothing

happened, as for Kevin, I'll put him up to speed."
