Chapter 35 - Randy's Secret

Aiden took out his necklace. Craig stared at the familiar shape of the pendant, his face becoming stiffer and stiffer.

“Did your father give you that?” Craig asked.

Aiden looked at him confusedly, answering: “My father gave it to me when I was still very young. But General, this ring of yours, the material and shape seems to be the same as my necklace, how did you get it?”

The little boy spoke with a soft voice, looking up politely at Craig.

Being stared by the teenager’s clear eyes, Craig unexpectedly found himself unable to tell the truth.

–How did I get it? This was something that your father accidentally left after our night together, when he ran away without a word.

Craig was silent for a moment, before asking Aiden in a whisper: “Where is your father?”

“He went to the central hospital.” Aiden said, “Something about meeting Uncle Louis.”

Craig frowned: “Uncle Louis? Who is that?”

Aiden: “He is a doctor in the Central Hospital, a good friend of my father’s.”

Craig nodded, then turned away. The man’s body fitted his suit uniform handsomely, making his body seemed taller and his back exceptionally upright. The four teenagers watched as the man leave so suddenly, sharing a look at each other.

After a while, Carlo frowned: “What’s going on? How could he leave without saying a word?”

Aiden was also puzzled, he turned to look at Xi Wei: “Xi Wei, how can that General have a similar ring as my necklace? Does he know my father? But I remember when he came to my house before he grabbed my dad because he thought my father was a stranger.”

“…..I don’t know. ” Xi Wei scratched his head, as clueless as them. He had seen General Craig’s ring in the palace before, but back then he merely felt that it looked familiar. Now he finally realized the reason why, it was because he had also seen the same shape on Aiden’s necklace!

At that moment, Klaire suddenly whispered in Xi Wei’s ear, “Do you think that perhaps General Craig has some relation with Aiden’s life? That’s why he was so shocked upon seeing Aiden’s necklace?”

Xi Wei’s eyes brightened, he immediately nodded: “Actually, he acted very strangely today. I happened to see him gazing dazedly at that ring in the palace, looking as if he were missing his lover. If our speculation is right, then he is probably… ”

The two people looked at each other, Klaire then whispered, “He is probably the alpha we’re looking for.”

Who would have expected that they would come upon this breakthrough without any effort. The one they were searching for was actually right in front of them.

Carlo saw the two teenagers whispering to each other and couldn’t help asking, “What are you whispering about? Can this general be Aiden’s father?”

“…” Xi Wei gave him a blank guy. This insensitive guy incredibly just said it outright, with Aiden on hearing distance!

Sure enough, hearing this, Aiden suddenly turned back and looked at Carlo with a pale face, “What did you say? My father?”
