Conrad was pretending, of course. He wanted to give them the impression that he did not know they lived here.

“We do, Uncle Security!” Irene gave a cute smile at the guard.

“This mister is no scammer!” Adrian could not help defending Conrad. To him, this poor man had already lost a leg. Why did everyone keep bullying him wherever he went?
“Okay, okay. Now I know he’s not a scammer. You two can bring him in now. Geez, this man has such a bad temper. He keeps on yelling at us and refuses to listen to reason.”

Conrad and Adrian were stunned seeing this.
Worried that the children would misunderstand that he hurt their puppy, Conrad explained, “I only touched it for a while.”
Irene looked at Conrad sympathetically, “…Poor mister. Even a puppy doesn’t like you.”
“Can you not make this any worse?” Adrian pouted at Irene before chasing after Milo.
Looking at their interaction nearby, Fia felt that blood ties were really a magical thing. Adrian and Irene were not children that would open up to just anyone. Yet, when they saw Conrad, they could not help approaching him.
“Mommy! Mommy! Helpcatch Milo!” Adrian ran as he called out to his mother.
Hearing this, Fia immediately hurried over and grabbed Milo by his collar. She was deep in her thoughts earlier so she instinctively reacted rather harshly, like how she did when she was on
a mission.

“Don’t worry, Irene. Don’t you trust Mommy? Milo will be fine.”

Crude? Who? She?! No way!
She glared at Conrad, who was watching the good show, and retorted, “But what about this cripple over here?!”
