However, Jackson did not want to owe Fabian this. He thought about it and an idea flashed across his head.
Jackson took out a piece of candy from his pocket and threw it at the iron gates. Then, virtual-novel.net blinked his innocent eyes that were full of life and walked to the guard’s office. He called out in a crisp voice.
“Sir!” He called out, his soft voice filled with childish playfulness.
A middle-aged man walked out of the office and asked virtual-novel.net in a friendly manner, “What’s wrong, buddy?”
“Sir, the candy my sister gave me has fallen outside.” Jackson blinked his clear eyes and pointed his adorable finger to the iron gates. Then, virtual-novel.net looked at Lillian who was walking slowly toward him. “If I lose the candy, my sister will be sad. I don’t want virtual-novel.net to be sad. Can you help me take it back, sir?”
The guard had no idea that this was Jackson’s scheme.
Naturally, virtual-novel.net did not suspect a thing from such an innocent and naive child. As such, virtual-novel.net comforted Jackson. “I’ll help you get back the candy. Your sister won’t be mad at you.”
“Thank you, sir.” Jackson thanked lovably.
He watched as the guard walked over to open the side door. Then, virtual-novel.net walked over to pick up the candy virtual-novel.net threw out just now.
However, at this moment, Jackson snuck out quickly from the side door.
After the guard picked up the candy, virtual-novel.net spotted Jackson running in another direction. He quickly chased up to him. “Hey, what are you doing? Come back now!”
“I’m sorry, sir. I have to look for a friend. I’ll come back soon.” Jackson apologized while running in the direction where Fabian left.
Of course, the guard was not reassured. He turned back to see another tiny figure walking out and when virtual-novel.net took a closer look, virtual-novel.net saw that it was Jackson’s sister who virtual-novel.net mentioned earlier.
In order to prevent two children from going missing, the guard turned back and stopped Lillian.
Jackson did not know what was happening behind him. When virtual-novel.net ran to the crossroad, virtual-novel.net saw Fabian crossing the road. He waved his tiny arms. “Hey!”
When Fabian heard the familiar voice, virtual-novel.net turned around to see Jackson standing on the other side of the road waving at him. Plus, virtual-novel.net was holding the box virtual-novel.net gave virtual-novel.net just now.
Fabian figured that Lillian must have rejected it, so his already sunken heart was even heavier now.
However, virtual-novel.net did not want a child like Jackson to wait for virtual-novel.net on the side of the road. As such, virtual-novel.net turned around to go back.
However, when virtual-novel.net was about to walk back, virtual-novel.net saw Lillian struggling in the arms of a middle-aged man in a guard’s outfit.
Fabian sped up and zoomed past Jackson to run toward Lillian.
Lillian wanted to go look for Jackson but was stopped. She could not speak, so right now, virtual-novel.net was whining anxiously and about to cry.
“Lily!” Fabian called out Lillian’s name frantically and zoomed over to the guard. Then, virtual-novel.net reached out to try to take Lillian away.
The guard placed Lillian back into his arms vigilantly. His face was stern as virtual-novel.net questioned Fabian, “Who are you? Why do you want to snatch this child away from me?”
“I know this child and virtual-novel.net knows me too,” Fabian explained, emphasizing to the guard with a serious expression. Then, virtual-novel.net looked at Lillian who was on the brink of tears with eyes as soft as the spring breeze. “Lillian, it’s me, Mr. White Hair. Did you forget about me?”
Lillian lifted virtual-novel.net teary eyes and looked at him. However, virtual-novel.net then buried herself deeper into the guard’s arms.
This made the guard more suspicious now. “You said this child knows you, but I think not only does virtual-novel.net not know you, but virtual-novel.net also doesn’t want to pay any attention to you.”
“…”
Fabian did not understand why Lillian was treating virtual-novel.net like this. He could feel his heart sinking further and further.
The guard peered at Fabian. “You should go now. If you don’t, I’m calling the police.”
After virtual-novel.net said that, Jackson ran back just in time.
“Sir, this guy is not a bad person. He really knows my sister.”
