100 Days to Seduce the Devil

Chapter 473 Comparing Bam-Bam To His Uncle

?

Day Fifty-Five…

~~*****~~

Jane was still discussing her situation with Bam-Bam when Dave arrived. He thought she was talking to someone. But she was alone inside the ward.

"Uncle Dave!" Ethan showed up, leaving his hiding spot.

Jane turned around as she heard Ethan's voice. 'How long had they been standing there?' Jane asked herself. She glanced at Bam-Bam with a questioning gaze.

Bam-Bam just shrugged his shoulders. He tossed a look at Ethan and their eyes met. 'Uh-oh, the boy is staring at me. Can he see me?' Bam-Bam began to suspect Ethan. He noticed the young boy's strange behavior when he was around.

'I'm certain. His gaze was directed at me. But he looked away when I saw him.'

Meanwhile, Dave was in a daze when he saw Jane. This was the first time he saw her but he could see the resemblance between Jane and Abigail up close. He darted his gaze back and forth between the two ladies. 'Who is she?'

"Uncle Dave, this is Miss Jane. Miss Jane, this is Uncle Dave… Miss Abigail's friend." Ethan introduced them to each other.

Jane put on a gentle smile as she glanced at Ethan and Dave. She forgot to act indifferent toward Ethan. She just missed this young boy so much. Fortunately, Nathan was not around.

"Hello… I'm Jane, Abi's elder sister," Jane formally introduced herself, informing the two that she was Abigail's sister.

Both Ethan and Dave were surprised when they heard that. They looked at each other with amusement.

"Your Abigail's sister?" Dave asked her in disbelief.

"Yes. I am," Jane simply replied.

Ethan blinked his eyes several times. This was a piece of good news. "I'm so glad to hear that, Miss Jane. But don't worry, we will take good care of your sister. Sooner or later, she will wake up."

Ethan moved closer to Jane, holding her hand as he comforted her. When he overheard some of the conversations between Bam-Bam and Jane, he observed that Jane was being problematic with her current relationship with Nathan. She badly needed Abigail's help.

"Thanks, Ethan." Dave ruffled Ethan's hair. He could see that the young boy was very kind and considerate. He knew that Ethan was treating Abigail like his own mother. 

"Uncle Dave… you have to visit Miss Abi every day so that she can wake up soon. She badly needs your presence." Ethan suggested with his innocent look.

Both Jane and Dave didn't expect to hear that from him. "Are you sure? What if your Dad won't be happy to see me here… every day." Dave smiled awkwardly.  He was aware of the possibility of Nathan getting mad or displeased if he would go there every day.

"Don't worry, Uncle Dave. I got your back. Besides, I know you want to see Miss Abi and be with her, am I right?" Ethan insisted.

Dave: "..."

Jane: "..."

'Nathan will get upset if he finds out that Ethan is allowing Dave to come here every day. Why is he doing this? Ethan is acting strangely. He is possessive of me before. Why is he letting Dave get close to Abigail?' Jane wondered to herself.

"Your dad might get jealous," Jane blurted out.

But Ethan shook his head and said, "Don't mind it, Miss Jane. Just trust me, okay? I'll deal with my father's grumpy mood."

Jane and Dave could only watch him in amusement. They couldn't figure out what Ethan was trying to do.

"By the way, it's my pleasure to meet you, Jane." Dave extended his right hand to Jane, offering her a handshake. Jane smiled faintly and accepted his hand. "Abi will be happy once she wakes up. Her dream is to have a complete family. And now, the Yan Family found her… and you too." Dave was happy for the two women. 

"I just hope she will recover soon…" His expression changed the moment he fixed his eyes on Abigail. The sadness could be seen in his eyes. 'I missed her…' Dave clenched his fists.

"I heard you were a police officer…" Jane brought up Dave's profession.

"Yes. I am. Why?" 

"May I ask for your help?" Jane didn't think twice. She wanted to trust Dave and rely on him. Nathan was watching her every movement. Black Rose was also under surveillance. She needed to mobilize someone on her behalf.

"What kind of help?" Dave asked her.

Jane didn't answer him right away. She looked at Ethan, contemplating whether she would say something in front of him or not. 

"Ethan, can you watch your Mom on my behalf? I will just talk to your Uncle Dave."

"She's not my Mom. She's my Aunt. I have a different mom!" Ethan declared to them as he glanced at Jane meaningfully. He was referring to her. But Dave and Jane thought he was talking about Monica.

"Oh. I'm sorry. I am just used to hearing you calling her Mom." Jane apologized to Ethan.

"Eh? When did you hear me calling her mom? I never call her Mom in front of you." Ethan's lips curled up in a cheeky smile as he stared at her intently. He was testing her.

Jane was stupefied when she heard that. 'Oh gosh. I forgot.'

Bam-Bam, who was silently flying next to Jane, reacted. "Are you going to blow your cover, Master? You only heard him calling you 'Mom' when you were still in Abigail's body." Bam-Bam reminded her.

Jane just shot Bam-Bam a cold sharp glare, signaling him to keep quiet while Ethan could only cover his little mouth to hold his giggle. 

"Oh… It's Cherry. She told me about it," Jane lied as she used Cherry as an excuse.

Ethan's lips curled up in a wide grin. He could no longer hold it. "Okay. Miss Jane." He didn't want to blow Jane's cover for her own sake. He just played along with her.

"Ethan, will you excuse us for now?" Jane would like to have privacy with Dave.

"Okay. Miss Jane. Go ahead. You can talk to Uncle Dave. I'll be on the lookout. I'll tell you if my Dad is here." Ethan pushed the two, guiding them to the room attached to Abigail's ward.

Bam-Bam and Ethan stayed with Abigail while Dave and Jane began to discuss something. Bam-Bam flew around Ethan, checking whether the little boy could see him or not. He was waving his paw in front of Ethan's eyes.

Ethan could no longer pretend because Bam-Bam's action was disturbing him. "Stop doing that. You will hurt my eyes."

Bam-Bam's eyes widened as he gasped. "Oh my gosh! You can really see me?!!" Bam-Bam stated exasperatedly. He moved away from Ethan, shocked and puzzled.

"How could that be possible?" Bam-Bam kept on mumbling to himself.

Ethan just rolled his eyes skyward and crossed his arms over his chest while facing Bam-Bam. Ethan pursed his lips and eyed him with his sharp gaze.

'Oh Gosh. This young boy is giving me a chill… just like my Master.'

"Why are you looking at me like that? When did you learn about my existence? How long had you been pretending that you couldn't see me?" Bam-Bam bombarded him with so many questions.

"You talk a lot like Uncle Aiden… no wonder my Mom can easily get annoyed by you."

Bam-Bam: "..."
