Chapter 143 143. Xiao Bai Is Cute

"C-can explain what just happened?"

Grace, walking with confusion written all over her face, asked Alex, one moment was in front of the hospital entrance and the next, she was with Alex seated in the car with a strange woman.

She was super confused. For a moment she even thought she passed out and woke up here but seeing the calm face of Alex, She dropped that thought and thought of an even more absurd idea.

'Teleported, We are definitely teleported.'

This is what she thought, As it was easy to think of then to think someone has frozen her in time. After all, time is the only thing current people can't get hold of. At least it was the truth for most of civilization.

Still she asked Alex to know what just happened, After all, it was understandably quite weird for her.

"Ohh, nothing much, That woman you saw stopped the time of an area putting you into suspended time, When we got here, I removed, Not a big deal.".

Alex with Xiao Bai looking at the mall in amazement when he heard Grace a question, So he answered her without looking or thinking much about it as all his attention was on the mall.

This mall is a paradise for any heterosexual man, Anywhere he looks he will find the thing he loves. There were video games, and advanced pc sets, and There were also some limited edition things making him think that it will not be bad to spend little startup money.

After all, in the world of women, Man is the prize. So women pretty much buy anything to please the man they are trying to woo and like women love jewellery, Men love games and such things making this industry advance further and beyond.

Right now this industry was at least 100 years ahead of its time than the last world, making him wonder what kinda realistic games developers had made with this kinda technology.

"....Oh uhh okay..... Can you explain it again??* 

Grace was not prepared to hear this at all. It was unrealistic to think of someone stopping time, If that thing was used properly all problems in this world from war to world hunger can be solved.

So he said this casually making her think she heard it wrong, Her still normal way of thinking caused her to resist this new information, She did not want to admit it as it will break her worldview.

"Grace, In this world a lot of things are way different than it looks, So never think that things are the same as they appear, Always have an open mind, It will help you to get used to new revelations."

Alex looked at Grace when be asked a second time then he saw her struggle to accept these facts. She has been a normal girl since childhood. The only reason she has not freaked out is because her mother always tells her stories about it.

So she had an idea about this hidden world but can't get used to it after seeing it. That's why Alex said to her while pulling her towards himself, taking her into his warm hug.

Grace sensing the warmth threw out all those useless thoughts, For her if he was with her then she can even live in hell happily thinking it was her heaven, So these little things now did not bother her anymore.

"Hum, I keep that in mind."

Grace smiled sweetly as she too hugged him back, All her worry seeing his always gone away no matter how serious her problems are with him it did not sound that bad.

Even now the worry in her heart about her mother still not waking up was pretty much suppressed, And this new news of a different kinda world she was since childhood was also was easy to digest.

Seeing the two of them hug, Xiao Bai looked at Grace enviably wanting to replace her with herself, She too wanted to feel that comfortable warmth of his.

So after their hug ended as Grace had a thin face, Hugging him in a public place while others were staring at them crossed her threshold of shame.

Well yeah obviously people will be staring at them after all even if Alex still had a face mask on him, His charm had not been affected at all, It just made him look mysterious hiding his identity

"M-Me."

Xiao Bai saw an opportunity, She with her big wide icy blue eyes looked at Alex and stretched her two arms towards him asking for her, His chest-length stature of her makes her even cuter and the broken words of her trying to say something was just lethal.

"Awww Why you are soo cute??!"

Alex though does not look like it also has a little heart, So seeing her life this he too could not help but take her into a deep hug pressing their body so closely together that there was no room for air to escape.

This time Graces turn to look envying at them wanting to switch places.

Still, the trio go around shipping, eating and having fun. Alex too decided to buy lots of things and bills to send to Isabella, After all at least this much she can do after her son hurt his hands.

They are still a little red from the...what her son did, Yeah this time it was her son as he was being blamed.

Well now that Isabella is mentioned, Let's see what is happening there.

...

"Who did this happen? Tell me the name and I will personally send that person into hell."

Isabella is seated beside unconscious Nathan, She was at work when she got a call and just like before she had to come here hurriedly. 

Nathan after all that beating he got and that spiritual pressure of Helen and in the end use of the forbidden technique pretty much took all the juice out of him.

His core was damaged, and his bones were also in worse condition than being broken as it was healed but wrongly, There were lots of bones in the wrong place bones in his body giving him immense pain.

The pain was so much that their doctors had to sedate him putting him in a partial coma to give his body time to heal.

So it was an understatement to say Isabella was furious seeing her son like this, Sbe wanted to rip the head of the person who did this to her son.

She did not care who they are or what their background is, Now she just wanted justice for her son.

"Miss it was all young master. He wanted to show that the Gayler family was not weak. He challenged Miss Alia's boyfriend, Master Alex. At first he was hesitant but the Young master provoked him.

So Master Alex beat him but he was soft-hearted. It turned out he was an awakened warrior with healing powers, So he healed young Master Nathan completely, But then the young master went and provoked an S-Rank and the result was in front of you Madam.

Let me tell you, Seeing Young Master's condition, Eldest Miss was so fallen in grief that she announced a bonus to all the servants to get a blessing of their for quick recovery of young master, She also bought a private yacht to get a blessing from the sea god, Also she also decreased eating by a lot as she was on diet.

Well, there is also one thing that- "

"You said Alex, Is he alright? What happens to that S-Rank? Is she with him? If so, what were they doing? No scratch that tells me where they have gone, I will deal with the rest."

As always number one wanted to start his usual routine, And tell about how she felt bad about it by completely telling the opposite thing to provoke Isabella to follow the order of their eldest.

But unlike other times, Isabella did not get angry but rather worried. She looked at him and asked hurriedly, Her current worried appearance was way too drastic than seeing her son pretty much on her deathbed.

Number one was startled, He did not see their Madam to be this much seriousness, He thought of something going to happen to Gayler which can be a life or death thing for it.

After all, their always so calm madam reacting this way means there's really something terrible news.

"I don't know if S-Rank knows Master Alex or not as they were not together, Master Alex did not seem hurt when we bravely rescued the young Master and was bringing him here. Well, Master Alex was in the hospital but I don't think he will be there now.

That's all I know."

So he spoke everything he knew about it, Of course he still did not forget the protocol taught to him.

But Isabella did not care about his words again. After hearing what she wanted to know, She quickly turned around talking out her phone before hurryingly walking out of the house.

What she did not know was, When she was going, Nathan who was in a partial coma opened his eyes with a slight grin on his face.

He was awakened when Isabella entered this room, After all, the protagonist does have a weird sense to know when heroin is nearby but he did not wake up wanting to act to aggravate Isabella.

Now he knows his mother will not care about his background of the Miller family and get him justice, The look of worry on her face shows that she can do anything now.

Poor he thought that she was worried about him, Well there is still time to get to know his daddy.
