Mated to Four Alphas-Chapter 235: Young master

On the other side, when Theron came out of his apartment with Velric, he put Velric in the passenger seat, sat down in the car, and started to drive after buckling Velric’s seatbelt.

As the car started to move, Velric was looking around and seemed to be enjoying himself.

That’s why Theron even played a song, and Velric was vibing to it. Since Theron was there, he wasn’t missing Silas yet.

"Daddy, where are we going?"

"We’re going to where I work, technically. I’m sure you’re gonna like it there."

"Are we going to the park?"

"No, I told you, we’re going to... where I work."

"Do you work in the park then?"

Velric was still a kid in the end, so he had many questions, and he didn’t understand many things.

It was hard for Theron to explain where they were going.

Even if he told him they were going to Dark Valley, the kid would just ask more questions. So he didn’t say anything about Dark Valley.

"Velric, it would be nice if we didn’t talk about me, okay? You can tell me about yourself."

"Like last time, do you remember? When I found you in that palace, where all those corpses were lying and you were crying? Can you tell me about that place? Like, why were you there? And who were those people? I know it felt like a dream, but in that situation, it was like a trauma of yours. That’s why I’m asking."

Velric’s smiling face turned sad, and as Theron saw that, he instantly regretted bringing up a subject that made a little kid gloomy.

"It’s okay, Velric. If you don’t want to say, just forget about it."

"That bad man killed you. And Mumma too. You all left me alone there. I was scared. I was calling for you. But you all didn’t come back to me. But then suddenly, a bright light came to me. And when I followed that light, I found Mumma and you all again."

Theron was listening carefully, but he didn’t understand what Velric was saying.

He died, Silas died, everyone died—then he followed the light and found Silas and everyone again?

It was beyond Theron’s understanding, because Theron was not that much of a genius.

"Let’s leave that aside. Tell me, what’s your favorite cartoon?"

When Theron changed the subject, Velric brightened up again. freewebnoveℓ.com

He started to laugh, smile, and was literally dancing while sitting in his seat.

After a while, they finally entered the Dark Valley.

As soon as they reached there, Theron stopped the car, got out, opened the door, picked Velric up into his arms, and started to walk toward his office.

There were guards standing outside, and when they saw Theron, they bowed to him.

But when they noticed Velric, their eyes widened, and they actually glanced at each other like, Who is this kid?

Velric was also looking around, seeing so many men wearing the same dress and style—it felt strange to him.

They went inside, where Celi, Theron’s assistant, was working. As soon as he saw Theron with a kid, he quickly stood up and came to him.

"Master, who is this kid? And why is he with you? I’ve never seen you carrying a kid before, so this feels strange to me."

"Celi, this is my son, Velric."

Hearing that, Celi’s eyes widened because he was like, How can his boss have a kid at such a young age—and that kid looks so big?!

"You’re lying, right boss? But this kid is cute."

"Isn’t he? Because he is my son, got it, idiot? Now stop slacking off and go work, or else I’m gonna reduce your salary this month!"

Celi sighed because he had been working overtime for the past three days.

He hadn’t even gotten enough sleep, but he still had to keep working because there were so many things that needed to be done.

First, he had to check the list of criminals who entered the Dark Valley—whether they had left or were still staying.

There were a lot of things that needed to be checked and handled. And technically, it was all Theron’s work.

But Theron didn’t even stay in the Dark Valley to do it—he dumped it all on Celi.

Last time, when Celi got injured in the Dark Dungeon because of that man who had kidnapped Silas—who had beaten Celi up really badly—Theron was literally scared something would happen to him, because Celi was his childhood friend.

But later, Celi recovered and returned to work.

Theron sat down on the chair while placing Velric on the table.

As he settled in, Celi handed him a file and then went back to his position. But Velric got down and walked over to him.

"Brother."

Hearing Velric, Celi quickly looked at him.

"Yes, young master?"

"Your head is like a tomato."

"Pfft—hahaha!" Theron burst into laughter hearing that.

Since Celi’s hair was red, that’s why Velric was calling his head a tomato.

But Celi was staring at Theron because he wouldn’t stop laughing at him.

"That’s enough now. There’s nothing that funny about it. And whatever the young master calls me, I’ll accept."

Celi picked up Velric and placed him on the chair.

Velric looked adorable sitting quietly beside Celi, but then his attention shifted to the stack of files on the table.

He stretched his little hand, trying to grab one, but couldn’t reach.

So, determined, he stood up on the chair to get them. But Celi noticed him and quickly caught him before he could fall.

"Young master, you can’t jump down from this chair—it’s very high. You might hurt yourself."

"Let me go! I want that," Velric said, pointing his finger at the stack of completed files.

"Why do you want those files, young master? But... since you want it—"

Celi grabbed an empty file and handed it over to Velric.

But Velric threw the empty file aside without even looking at it and pointed his finger at the completed files again.

"No, not this one. I want that," he insisted stubbornly.
