Chapter 3: Hidden Secret (3)

If only I saw it in the first place. I can just seduce him. I can't ever know that not rich people are wearing expensive clothes. I overestimated him for the first time.

"Hey! You! Black hoodie guy!" She's yelling and calling him again and again.

Al didn't know that he was the one she's calling for.

"This brat. Why is he ignoring me"

She ran and tackled all the people on the escalator to catch him up.

After some effort, she catches him up. She opened her mouth.

Huff, huff.

"Hey!"

She touched his shoulder and caught her breath.

"What?" Al's response.

"You're super bad you know. Your old man wants you to carry these bags for him"

"W-what? He's not my grandpa. He's a total stranger to me"

Al was also confused by the saleslady.

"B-but, he paid for all these shoes. Just carry it. I'm so tired catching you up"

They reach the first floor. The sales lady was exhausted from catching him up and just proceeded on going back to the second floor and not seduce him anymore.

"W-what am I gonna do with this?"

Al was still confused about the situation. Suddenly, the old man appeared in front of him with two men beside him and wearing black suits, ties, and shades.

Al was surprised, and quickly gave the shoes to him. Al opened his mouth.

"Here are your shoes and also we're total stranger old man"

The old man didn't get the bags.

"Why? Just take it. I don't have time playing with you"

"Just accept those as my presents"

The old man was also smiling at the two men beside him. Al was confused why the old man gave the bags of shoes.

"Why? Who are you?"

"We can proceed with our conversation in my car. Do you want to go with us?"

"Are you out of your mind?"

"Of course not. I'm also your father acquaintance"

"Father acquaintance?"

They move to the parking lot and wait for the two bodyguards to get the old man's car. Al looked at him and observed him as much as possible. He opened his mouth.

"What's your name, Sir?"

"My name is Sebastian Avenido, you can call me Sebastian, even though I'm 39 years old it's okay to call me by my name"

Al was surprised about what he said and kept asking.

"Where did you meet my father?" he's curious about his father.

"I met your father at the meeting conference where we work, he was the most outstanding and amazing person that I ever knew"

Al twitched his eyebrows and fidgeted his fingers as he blabbered those words.

"So… Why didn't you visit him when he died?"

"What?!"

Sebastian's face looked like a ghost about learning the truth.

"He is dead? Is that true?"

"Yup, you didn't know, right? He was the most understandable father I've ever met"

"Y-yeah. I didn't even thank him properly. Sigh… At least you experience having a father right?"

Sebastian patted his head. His face turned into a frown. Al opened his mouth.p

"Why? What do you mean to thank him properly? What's the meaning of that?"

"Well, he was the one who invented the serum that can give you immunity to all diseases"

"W-what?!"

"Hey, lower your voice kid. Don't let other people know this because they might target you, like your father. I think they target your father because of the serum"

Al was shocked about the true incidence of why his father died. Al spoke again.

"Are you saying that my late father is a scientist?"

"Your guess is right."

Honk, honk.

"Out car has arrived, get inside now kid"

"Wait... Is this truly your car?"

Al's face is cold but he was surprised by seeing the car Sebastian was using.

"This is the newest model of Lambo, so get in Al"

"Okay"

He's heart-pounding super fast as he sees the Lambo of Sebastian.

They went inside the car and the two men besides Sebastian are in front, one is driving.

The sun is in the middle top, people gather more at the mall parking lot when the car starts to move. People who saw the car were amazed by its design and others were capturing photos.

After they fully entered the car. Sebastian reaps his face. Al moved away in surprise.

The face he was using is fake skin and also his arms and hands have fake skin.

Sebastian's appearance was like 30 years old, he has milk-like skin and a handsome face, his eyes are ocean-green, and have a masculine body. Al opened his mouth.

"W-what are those? They're so creepy, but you look handsome when you take those out"

"These things? We called them camouflage skin. Your father and I build this"

"Wow, they're magnificent. I'm amazed by your project"

"Of course they are amazing. So, now you can see my true handsome face. Also, we get you some clothes they're on the back of the car"

"That's too much. Even the shoes are too much for me. I can't accept them"

"It's okay, Kid. This will be my appreciation for your father ideas and friendship"

Al unconsciously smiled.

W-wait, why am I suddenly smiling?

He covers his face and Sebastian sees him smiling and pretends that he didn't see him smiling. Sebastian opened his mouth

"Kid? Do you want to work on my business? You can earn much money as you want"

What is this? Why is he suddenly bringing up a business?

"What business is it?"

"Your father and I have come up with a new project. It was the serum I was saying earlier. But when he got fired at the laboratory where we were working. The blueprint for making that serum was held by him"

"Is that all?"

"No. Because I was the one who gave the blueprint to him. Because that time the laboratory need a project that can grow their power but they fired Hiraki and couldn't get the power they want"

"Why's my father get fired?"

"Long story short. Your father has committed a great crime at the laboratory that he didn't do. They said that he takes the 'BBT959' it was a tiny explosive device that can explode around 20 meters"

"What? Did you do that explosive device that's hideous"

Sebastian laughed as Al said that.

"Yes, That's hideous. Do you want to visit my house?"

"Is it okay with you?"

"Yes, it's okay. My brother will love to see you"

Before long, Sebastian got his phone and called a person, Nicolas Cantu Avenido, who was his brother.

"Hey, Nicolas? The son of the Hiraki was with me. So get some food prepared"

"Okay. I'll see you later"

The call ended. Al was staring at him like he was curious who might that be the brother Sebastian said.

Sebastian looks at Al and speaks.

"I think if you're visiting our house, you need to eat at least once right"

"Y-yeah. Thanks for that"

"Such a great honor"

By that time, the land they're tracking was a bit more forestry. The view was extremely beautiful. The trees are greener than the city, the air was not only clean it has the sweet scents of the flowers

The economy here was not like in the city. It was extravagant and tranquil. I want to live here.

As the car moved forward Sebastian pointed his finger in the distance.

"Look at the All. You can see from here our house"

Woah! That's huge, it's like a castle without wall fences.

"Yeah. I can see it"

Suddenly, a truck was seen nearby. A tree was snap and impassable. Sebastian was upset about the situation. The house was still far for them to walk.
