Debra looked sideways at Marion. "What's wrong? You seem kind of tense."
"It's nothing." Marion kept his eyes on the road.
After a long pause, he asked, "Is Robert going too?"
"Probably. He is Theda's bodyguard."
"Then I'll go too."
Debra put her phone down and raised an eyebrow.
"Why? You're not worried I'll find out about your embarrassing childhood stories from Robert, are you?"
"I don't have any embarrassing stories."
"Right. You still haven't told me anything about your childhood. I only know you went overseas, worked for Shawn, and teamed up with Drake and Robert. What about before that?"
Suddenly, Marion slammed on the brakes.
Debra almost bumped her head, but luckily Marion was quick to reach out and stop her from hitting the dashboard.
Her heart skipped a beat, and when she looked up, she saw the worried expression on Marion's face.
"Are you all right?" He checked her forehead.
Debra shook her head. "I'm fine. Just that stray cat darted out of nowhere at the wrong time."
Born with defects, he couldn't feel fear, anger, or sadness. His emotions never fluctuated.
The upside was, he could focus and learn faster than others. While his peers were chasing and playing, he didn't feel the urge to do the same. Even when his parents died in that car accident, he didn't shed a tear.
Caleb kicked him out of the house and demanded, "From now on, you'll learn how to live like a normal person."
He had to learn about human emotions and expressions. He learned quickly and started making expressions in response to different situations.
But he still didn't understand why this world existed or the meaning of life.
One day, his grandfather stood in front of the study window, facing away from him.
Caleb said, "If you can't find the meaning of life, then make revenge your purpose. Find the person who killed your parents."
