New Life : A Second Chance

Kyle stood there silently for a second before he turned on his heels and walked out. Everyone else gave out a breath of relief.

Though they didn't know who the stranger was, his manner was rather imposing. His dressing also appeared expensive and those blue eyes were so piercing. Though they were intimidated, they were all feeling sympathy for Stephan right now.

They had thought he was unemotional and cold, but it turned out he was hurting so much inside. Now, a foreign stranger took away his kids?

From then, their attitudes towards him became better and they were much nicer.

When Sayuri saw Kyle enter the front desk area, she got up from the sofa and walked over to him.

"How was it?" she asked, grabbing his arm and leaning on it.

"As expected," Kyle said.

"Such a good actor?" Sayuri asked softly.

Kyle smirked, "I don't think it was really acting."

"Huh? But you told him of the plans and he was okay with it," Sayuri said in surprise, "He was even glad you could get his kids out of danger."

"But he's still angry at me for being able to do it while he can't," Kyle said, "He actually has two types of personalities within him."

Sayuri listened as they walked towards the carpark, her mind whirling at the sort of life Kyle must have had in his past life.

"The neanderthal male-chauvinist and the sensitive man. He feels more than most, but his upbringing and society were such that he felt embarrassed by that, I think," Kyle mused, "So he compensates by being more aggressive. His male ego can smash a mountain."

"But his heart bleeds," Kyle said softly, remembering the pain in his former spouse's eyes as he shouted how the kids were his.

"Knowing what his kids needs, yet not being able to do it or give it," Kyle said, "Kills him inside. So his anger at me was real."

"How did you stay married to that man?" Sayuri asked in wonder. The Kyle that she knew, would not have tolerated such a person.

"I was a different person back then," Kyle whispered, as they got into the car. After ensuring that Sayuri had buckled up, he drove the car out.

Once inside the car, Kyle could talk normally and did not bother with talking without moving his lips. The car was soundproof, plus had a jamming device to disrupt any bugging equipment and the glass was tinted which made it difficult for anyone trying to lip read.

Kyle was being extra careful since the mastermind was in a position of power. Xavier had access to all sorts of weapons and spy equipment, and for all you know, he may even mobilise the military or the spies on the pretext of 'national security'.

Things were sensitive and delicate.

Hence, the show earlier.

Taking the kids out of the country, plus getting rid of the goons, would have put those people on high alert.

What Kyle needed to do was divert their attention and view what Kyle did as a separate matter altogether. That it had nothing to do with Stephan and Kylie stepping into 'their' business.

Right now, what was important was for them to continue to underestimate Stephan, and not view Kyle as a potential threat or backing for Stephan. Their little skit showed this, and how Kyle didn't take Stephan's feelings into consideration at all.

Kyle was just a person that was interested in the kids' welfare and not whatever that was happening with Stephan.

Donnie flung his phone out in anger.

Not only did the kids escape, but the people he sent to capture them had also all disappeared. Looking at the CCTV cameras of the airport, he had seen how that silver-haired bodyguard of theirs had eliminated three of his people in the airport.

And how their bodies had been spirited away.

Such a person that had such resources could not be underestimated.

Luckily, the so-called CEO was only interested in the kids and never bothered with Stephan.

Donnie snorted at the report he had gotten from those trailing the so-called CEO. All he did was play around while clinging to that admittedly delicious-looking girl. He was really enjoying his holiday here and ignoring everything else.

Even this stunt with those two kids.

Donnie didn't believe that it was a genuine case of interest. Must be some sort of publicity angle.

Donnie refused to believe that this frivolous kid was a real CEO.

Too young. Wilful, spoilt.

He must have been put there because of his good-looking face and his past achievements. A puppet, to give a good image.

Hah.

Donnie knew better.

A guy who could shamelessly make-out in public in a conservative country, not caring about the people watching, truly showed how decadent he was. All that mattered was him, and what he wanted to do rather than the people around him.

Donnie pushed the file on Kyle aside, dismissing him entirely and focused on Stephan.

It was only much later that he regretted that. For not digging more information about Kyle.

Not that he would have found anything, actually. So let's just let him live under the delusion that he could have been more prepared if he had.

Beatrice was having a headache.

No, not a real one but in the form of two figures that decided they had to be at the airport as well to welcome Kay and the kids back.

Boss had told them to send a team to protect Xing Han when he went to the airport, but the moment they heard that Beatrice would be there as well ... they assigned themselves.

There was no way they were going to let any other goon protect their woman.

Even if that said woman hadn't accepted them yet.

They had time.
