The car door swung open, and Arthur's lithe figure emerged.
That little troublemaker had sneaked out and landed here for a night out! He had no intention of returning home at all!
With determined steps, Arthur approached.
Christopher spun around, a look of near terror on his face.
Arthur, his less-than-stellar father, had tracked him down.
He was about to be apprehended and hauled back to the Bridgewater mansion by Daddy Less-Than-Stellar!
No, he wasn't going back!
With both feet, he pushed off the skateboard and glided forward.
However, not far away, Sylvia emerged from another vehicle.
He was left in astonishment.
What should he do?
If Dad spots him with Mom, things could get messy!
Mom never wanted Dad to discover that he and Jennifer were part of her life.
Lowering his head, he swerved around and smoothly glided toward the Gucci company building.
"Christopher." Sylvia noticed her son's agile form as soon as she stepped out of the car and called out. However, she observed him skating towards the building. She smiled and swiftly followed in pursuit.
Arthur was striding to chase Hendrick.
Hendrick was stunned.
Over there, Sylvia was also walking towards Hendrick.
What's going on?
What is she up to? Does she know Hendrick?
His eyelids twitched, and he decelerated.
By the time Hendrick had entered the building, he paused for a moment, then hurriedly followed, standing at the entrance and peering inside.
As he observed, his expression instantly darkened, and his eyes turned icy.
Sylvia was holding Hendrick's hand, engaged in conversation with him, occasionally ruffling his hair, appearing very acquainted.
Looking up, he spotted Hendrick's face in the upstairs window, sporting a mischievous grin.
"Boy, come down now. If you don't, there'll be consequences." Arthur declared sternly.
"Okay, I'm coming!" Christopher responded, tapping his feet lightly as he glided towards the opposite exit.
In a matter of seconds, Hendrick's agile figure appeared at the exit, standing still as he noticed Arthur waving at him.
Ignoring Arthur's wave, Hendrick stood firm, almost as if expecting something.
Arthur hesitated, glancing back at the hallway where Sylvia stood bewildered. Faced with the decision, he reluctantly gave up on her and walked in the opposite direction.
A mischievous grin, revealing two small tiger teeth, spread across Hendrick's face.
Finally, he successfully lured that scumbag daddy here!
However, he wasn't content with just leading Arthur back to the Bridgewater mansion. With a quick movement, he slid toward the square's exit, attempting to evade Arthur.
"Boy, stop!" Arthur shouted in frustration.
Christopher sped up his escape.
Anticipating his move, Arthur pressed the car key, and the extended luxury car began to move, its lengthy frame strategically blocking the exit.
