Chapter 24: ?Unfortunate Accident
Thirteen ate and chatted with his Aunt, but he didn't forget to pay close attention to his surroundings.
This act caught the attention of Gideon, who was Sandra's husband.
'Although his father has been kicked out of the Leventis Family, this boy isn't half bad,' Gideon thought. 'His awareness of his surroundings fits that of someone born from a Prestigious Family.'
A few minutes later, Thirteen finished eating the food on his plate. He then made a gesture for his Aunt to come closer so that he could whisper something to her.
"Aunt, no matter what happens, don't interfere and remain seated," Thirteen whispered. This chapter is updated by
Before she could even ask the boy what he meant, Thirteen had already left their table and was walking over to the buffet area to get a drink.
At this exact moment, a boy who seemed to be twelve years old walked toward Thirteen with a determined look on his face.
The Adults who had been paying close attention to Thirteen from the beginning also noticed the older boy moving in his direction and smiled.
All of them were thinking that they were about to see something very entertaining.
Lady Callista, who was also paying close attention to her grandson, noticed the boy who was approaching Zion.
She vaguely remembered the boy to be a subordinate of one of her husband's grandchildren.
Although she mostly stayed inside her own villa, Hans made it a point to report to her everything that was happening within the Leventis Family.
Understanding what was going to happen next, Lady Callista planned to put a stop on it.
However, before she could order Hans to interfere, her husband's words reached her ears.
"Just watch for now," Arthur said in a volume that only Lady Callista was able to hear. "I want to see what the brat of that no-good son of mine is capable of."
Arthur was still annoyed that his speech was stopped midway due to Zion's sudden arrival.
He knew Lady Callista well and understood that his wife wouldn't do anything to make him lose face intentionally.
Thirteen, who had just finished filling his glass with Lemon Juice, sneered inside his heart.
He already noticed that a particular group of children had been staring at him from the beginning.
The boy standing at the center of the group had short black hair and blue eyes. Clearly, the child belonged to the Leventis Family.
Seeing that he already had a group of subordinates with him at such a young age, Thirteen knew that this only meant one thing—that boy was someone that the Leventis Family had recognized as a talented member of their family.
Thirteen walked towards Sandra's table, and the brown-haired boy who was targeting him hurried his pace to intercept his target.
When the boy was only a few meters away from Thirteen, the five-year-old suddenly sneezed, sending the contents of his glass flying in the direction of the boy who planned to do him harm.
Due to how sudden it was, the boy was unable to dodge the juice that landed in his eyes, making him shout in pain.
"Ah! I'm sorry," Thirteen gasped when he saw that he had accidentally hit someone with his fruit juice. "Let me help yo—wah!"
Due to some of the juices that spilled on the floor, Thirteen slipped making him "accidentally" headbutt the boy's stomach, making the latter cry out in pain, as his body bent over like a cooked shrimp.
Thirteen then raised his head and "accidentally" hit the boy's jaw, making the latter stagger before falling on the ground, unconscious due to the three-hit combo that short-circuited his brain.
First, he lost his vision, and the stinging pain of the lemonade made him raise his hands to cover his eyes. The next second, he felt something hard hit his stomach, taking all the breath out of his lungs.
Last but not least was the finishing blow that hit his jaw, rattling his brain and causing him to lose consciousness.
Everything was timed perfectly, giving the pitiful boy no time to dodge or even defend himself due to how sudden and fast things had escalated.
Thirteen, who was responsible for knocking out the boy, painfully rubbed his head, acting hurt.
However, a minute later, he returned to the buffet area to refill his glass with fruit juice, not even bothering to look at the unconscious boy, who was hurriedly taken by the servants of the family away to be treated.
Some of them also expertly cleaned the floor, making it squeaky clean.
Clearly, they were already used to cleaning up after the mess made by their young masters, who were all looking at Thirteen with frowns on their faces.
