‘Damn it.
‘But that’s true.
‘Hansel is still a child if we look at his age!’
Blake found himself speechless. “Why do we keep doing illegal stuff?”
Orpheus said, “…That’s not our business. He did all that voluntarily.”
“Okay, but don't pretend that you are a virtuous person!” At this moment, Justin Pattinson could not help but speak up.
Although they stopped discussing the topic, they still put the blame on Hansel.
“If he wants to throw somebody under the bus, he can only blame himself. You are a liar!”
Hansel said, “...Fine, it’s all my fault, I shouldn’t have lied to you guys!”
“Good that you are admitting to it!”
“What’s the use of an apology? You have already done us harm!”
“Yes!”
There was a lot of resentment among members of the floor.
Hansel ignored their anger and said, “But we did that for your good!”
“It’s for our good that you lied to us?” Orpheus asked. ‘Is there such a thing as saying that you did it for someone else’s sake by lying to them?’
"Of course, just think about it. Despite my young age now, I’m already on an equal footing with you. When I am a little older… how would I handle all of you? So, I didn’t say it because it’s for your own good. I don’t want to hurt your self-esteem!" Hansel said this clearly. He was being really earnest, sincere, and innocent!
There was dead silence as soon as he finished his speech.
“Damn it!”
“Hansel, you bastard!”
“How could you be so ruthless at such a young age? Do your parents know about this?”
Upon hearing their words, Hansel gave an innocent smile.
Everyone had now cussed him and made sarcastic quips at him. Finally, Justin Pattinson opened his mouth and said, “Come on, baby, let big brother take a look at you!”
“Are you sure?”
“Yes, bring your twin sister along. Come together!"
Hansel said, “That doesn’t sound like a good idea.”
“Enough with the nonsense. Start the video!”
Upon saying that, Justin Pattinson started the video recording. Hansel did not refuse this time and accepted it.
However, the child’s face that appeared stunned all of them.
‘What a chubby child!’
It was a chubby and fair face.
“Are you Hansel or Gretel?” Orpheus stared at the camera and asked, as he only could see one person.
Hansel spoke to the camera, “Of course it’s me, my sister said she wants to remain enigmatic!”
Listening to his voice, they felt that their bones melting. ‘He’s really just a child!’
“Why are you still trying to be mysterious? Now that we know how you look like, we’ll be able to identify your sister, because she will definitely look similar to you.”
“Justin, I’m not letting you see my face because I'm afraid that you may covet my beauty...” Gretel said from the other side.
Justin Pattinson was speechless.
The facts proved that one out of the sibling pair had a rotten nature, and the other was a narcissist.
They really belonged to one family.
“But Hansel, you are so chubby!” Orpheus said while touching his chin.
“Please do not covet my beauty too!”
Orpheus said, “...Damn, could you not be so shameless?"
Hansel smiled. When they saw him smile, they always felt as if they were a century apart.
After chatting for a while, Justin Pattinson said, “Hansel, we are doing just fine. But this is not the case for Lingo. You have to work hard because she threatened to withdraw from Hell’s Angels Alliance if you do not quit the alliance!”
Hansel was speechless.
He had never expected Lingo to react so strongly!
“You broke her heart!” said Orpheus, delighting in his misery.
Hansel felt resigned. He had been most innocent.
But he nodded. "Okay, I get it, I’ll talk to her!" Hansel replied. His tone made him sound like he was very experienced in this field.
They chatted for a while, but they never quite left the topic of Hansel being a child. This still bothered them for the time being. Even if they could accept it, it did not stop them from making sarcastic quips about it.
Hansel could only accept their comments silently.
At that moment, Hansel's cell phone rang. When he saw Piers Brion’s number, he frowned and answered the call.
“What is it?”
“Boss, what is your mother's name?” Piers Brion asked.
Hansel frowned. “Why are you asking that?”
“Tell me first!”
“Lyla Lowe. What’s the matter?!”
Piers Brion said, “…Boss, did your mother offend someone?”
“Why do you say so?”
“Someone asked me to murder your mother!”
There was a sudden change in Hansel’s facial expression. “And what happened after that?”
“After coming back from your house, I suddenly remembered about it when I saw a photo. I didn't take the job. They must be looking for someone else now!" Piers Brion said.
Hansel held the phone with a very gloomy expression. Lyla Lowe and Mark Pattinson had a business meal together today, so now, she must be with his father!
‘If they are together, it is still okay. She should be safe with him. If not...’
Without saying anything else, he directly cut off the call with Piers Brion. He found Lyla Lowe’s number and called her.
“Sorry, the number you have dialed is unavailable...” When he heard these words from the answering machine, Hansel uttered some cuss words...
