Jordan liked to go against others. The more Shaun refused to let Jordan tease his baby self, the more he wanted to tease him. After playing the rattle drum for the one-year-old Shaun, he couldn’t help pinching his cute little face.
Looking at the adorable little Shaun, Jordan sighed.
‘He was quite cute when he was young. Why did he become like that after he grew up?’
This should have something to do with Shaun’s living situation. He hid in dark places all year round and did not interact with anyone. As time pa.s.sed, his face became dark and haggard.
Jordan wanted to build a good relations.h.i.+p with Harvey and his family, so he invited them to sit down and even made them a cup of tea.
!!Jordan said, “Mr. and Mrs. Handley, I’ve seen cats fight before, but this is the first time I’ve seen cats eating another cat. What do you usually feed your cats?”
Shaun’s mother responded. “I also want to know what you feed your cat. It’s so fat. Even us humans go hungry now. How did it get so fat?”
Harvey suddenly reached out a hand as if he didn’t want Jordan to feel embarra.s.sed. He said, “You two are not from around here, right? Where are you from?”
“The capital,” Jordan said in response.
Harvey replied, “I can tell at a glance that you two are from rich families. I don’t think you should stay here. This town is not peaceful. For your safety, you should leave as soon as possible!”
Jordan and Lauren looked at each other. Shaun’s father was quite interesting. He wanted them to leave the moment they met.
Jordan sneered in his heart. Of course, he knew that this town was not peaceful.
With the Handley family around, how could this town be peaceful?!
Jordan pretended not to know anything and asked, “Not peaceful? I wonder what demons and ghosts are in this town. Why is it not safe?”
Harvey said with a straight face, “There are many things that we can’t tell you since you’re new here. Anyway, I advise you to leave. I really mean you well! I hope you two will consider it carefully. Let’s go.”
With that, Harvey and his wife left without drinking any tea.
“Wait a minute.”
Jordan suddenly stopped Harvey. “I went to your house just now and saw a little boy about 10 years old.”
“Oh, that’s my brother’s son. His name is Finn.”
Harvey told Jordan the truth.
Jordan continued to ask, “Does your brother’s family live with you?”
Harvey nodded. “Yes, my sister-in-law pa.s.sed away some time ago. I live with my brother’s family. My brother is at home. When you went to my house just now, didn’t you see him? He was in the innermost room.”
Hearing this, Jordan couldn’t help feeling a little afraid. He had gone to every room. Other than Finn, he didn’t see anyone else!
‘d.a.m.n it, where did Harvey’s brother hide? Why didn’t I notice him?’
Jordan felt that Harvey looked like a normal neighbor. At the very least, he did not appear to be that scary on the surface. On the other hand, Terrence had avoided Jordan when he went to his residence. He seemed to be very mysterious.
It seemed that Terrence was much more difficult to deal with than Harvey.
Jordan smiled. “Oh, I didn’t look in the rooms.”
Harvey did not say anything and left with his wife and little Shaun.
Out of courtesy, Jordan and Lauren sent them to the door before returning.
After they left, Jordan, Lauren, Shaun and Rong Huangde started a conversation.
Jordan said, “Shaun, the impression your father gave me was a little unexpected. He looks like a good person. I thought he was like you, a fellow who hid in the dark and attacked in secret. When I found out that your parents came to find Lauren, I really thought they were going to kill her. I didn’t expect them to come to apologize. Not only that, they advised us to leave. They don’t seem to want anything to happen to us.”
Lauren added. “Yes, yes. I have the same feeling. I feel that Shaun’s father isn’t a bad person, but I do find it very strange. Why did he advise us that it’s not safe here? If he doesn’t want to kill us, he can just leave us alone, right?”
After Shaun heard their evaluation of his father, he said, “Deity Jordan, you’ve always had a huge misunderstanding about our Handley family! You think that my family is the most sinister and vicious family in the world, but that’s not the case at all! I have my father’s bloodline. I can feel deeply that I have the most honest and kind heart of a simple farmer! Not only is my father not a bad person, I’m not a bad person either! Don’t think of me like that!”
At this point, Jordan and the rest sneered.
If Shaun wasn’t a bad person, then there were no bad people in the world!
Jordan said, “Alright, Shaun. If it weren’t for the fact that we all have our methods, the three of us would have already died in your hands. I have some understanding of your father now. I’ve also experienced your mother’s strength. I want to know more about your uncle and your cousin Finn. How much do you remember about them?”
Shaun said slowly, “What do I remember about them? It’s been so many years. I remember that my uncle doesn’t like to talk. Finn, that b*stard, always bullies me. That’s all.”
Jordan did not believe Shaun. He felt that Shaun was unwilling to tell him too much about the Handley family.
At this moment, Rong Huangde spoke up. “I’ve fought Harvey and Terrence before. Terrence is clearly stronger and he has the final say in the Handley family’s matters. Jordan, if you want to know the Handley family’s secret, you have to make Terrence talk.”
After hearing Rong Huangde’s words, Jordan knew what to do. “I understand. However, Terrence avoided me just now. He seems to be very difficult to come into contact with. Lauren and I have already met Harvey once. I’ll find an excuse to meet him again tomorrow and get to know him first.”
Rong Huangde and Shaun agreed with Jordan’s plan.
Shaun said, “Jordan, what excuse are you going to find to meet my father tomorrow? I think you can bring some delicious food over. Just say that you made a good meal and want to let me try it. Didn’t you bring a lot of delicious food from our era? I have a pot and the ingredients here. I can send them to you via drone. You and Lauren know how to cook, right?
“You can make me some delicious food. Fish, beef, pork and so on. Send them all to me. Ahhhh, poor me. I was born in the 70s and lacked proper nutrition. Since we’re here, we have to let my younger self eat and drink better!”
