“I want to light the candles, but you said they’re poisonous. I want to eat my birthday cake, but it’s also poisonous!” Kara’s cries intensified the more she spoke. “I don’t want everyone to get poisoned, so I can’t celebrate my birthday now! I’m so sad…”
For some reason, Keith didn’t want the girl in front of him to cry.
Maybe it was because she had a pretty name. Girls with such names should have pretty smiles all the time.
But when she started crying, she no longer looked pretty. Keith took out a small handkerchief from his suit pocket and said in a cold tone, “Hurry up and wipe your tears. If you want to celebrate your birthday, then do it. Why are you crying? You look so ugly when you do!”… “T-The poison…” “You’ve already bought everything, haven’t you? It’s better to consume the cake rather than waste it. Just remember not to buy such things in the future.” Keith’s words were still icy, but now, he was soothing the little girl instead of hurting her feelings. 4.2 “Really? I can eat the cake?” “You’re already this stupid to begin with. A bit of cake won’t do you any harm.” Kara filtered out the mean words automatically and smiled beautifully in response. “Yay! We can eat the cake now! Let’s cut it together! As a family, we should celebrate together!”. “I’m not a part of your family.” “Since you’re already living in my house, that means you’re a part of the family!” Keith was rendered speechless once more after hearing Kara’s words. Never had he heard such unreasonable and illogical things before in his life. However, he deemed it inappropriate to continue being mean to the little girl. He might risk making her cry again. Kara grabbed Keith’s hand and announced excitedly, “Mommy, Uncle Frederick! Let’s cut the cake!”
Tina let out a sigh of relief.
Children would always argue over minor things, but she thought it inappropriate to interfere with their squabbles as she was an adult. It was a good thing the children had solved their problem and
successfully made up. The entire family put their hands together on the knife and divided the cake into four quarters. By the time Kara had happily finished her cake, it was already dark outside. The approaching night was beginning to make her drowsy. **
“Mommy, I’m sleepy now. I want to go to bed.” “Go brush your teeth and wash your face, Kara. I’ll read you a bedtime story later.”
“Okay!”
While Kara ran off to do her nightly routine, Frederick decided to leave the apartment. Keith sat on the couch while staring at Tina, who was beginning to clean up the place. For some reason, he started to think of this particular place as his home. He felt closer to this mother and daughter pair compared to when he was with his birth mother
At that moment, Tina noticed Keith’s expression. She asked, “Are you already tired? I’ve tidied up the guest room for you earlier. You can sleep there for the night.”

“I’m not tired yet,” Keith replied stubbornly. “Can you lend me your computer? It’s an emergency.” “Are you going to play games on it?” “No. I want to contact an acquaintance. Of course, this is my secret, so I can’t tell you anything about it. It’s bad for you if you know too much.” Keith sounded very serious when he said that. Tina didn’t press on the matter, and simply shrugged helplessly. Perhaps it was common for children to come up with imaginary scenarios all the time. Keith made it sound so mysterious, as if he was about to contact an information broker. She handed Keith a laptop and said, “Have fun. I’m going to read Kara a bedtime story.” Keith pulled out a specialized USB drive from his pocket and plugged it into
one of the laptop’s ports. Then, he logged into a website. He looked very serious as he typed a message with the keyboard. “Are you there? Soon, a reply could be seen on the chat window.
“What the heck? You’re finally here, Boss! I thought you went missing! I’ve already caused the car accident that you ordered to happen. That Langford man was hospitalized, but the autistic child meant to seek treatment there has disappeared to God knows where.”
Keith sent another order.
“Forget about that child. I want information on the tenants of this apartment building, particularly the mother and daughter pair.” After that, he sent the address that he was currently staying at.
