"Hmm..." Mr. Q hummed with a regretful expression on his face. "It's a pity my face is disfigured. I have a long scar, that's why I don't take off my mask. I'm afraid I won't meet your mother's requirements."
Aiden stared at the man for a long time, a frown on his little face. He seemed conflicted for a long time before he waved his small hand and said boldly, "That's okay. Even though Mommy likes pretty faces, I'm sure she'll consider my opinion. I can help put a good word in if you're good enough in other aspects. Besides... I think your features look perfect. Even with the mask on, you still look great. I'm sure you can charm my mommy into a daze."
Mr. Q's lips curled up, and he said with a touch of teasing, "Is your mother so superficial that she only cares about what's on the outside?"
"Of course not!" Aiden protested while shaking his head. Then, he sighed and lamented, "If she did, why would she have married that jerk, Stefan, in the first place? She ended up getting so badly bullied. What did he have apart from a handsome face?
"Is it possible that your mother was not only interested in his good looks but also in his great personality, talent, inner qualities, and also capabilities?"
"Come on! That's impossible!"
There was disgust on Aiden's face, and he looked as if he wanted to throw up as he said, "Do you not know who Stefan Hunt is? He's famous in Beach City for being cold-blooded and having a volatile temper. As for his talent and inner qualities... I'm guessing he has none. Why then would he be so ignorant, leaving a good wife like my mommy alone and running around to mess with other women?"
"Did your mother tell you that?"
"Of course not. I secretly listened to what Aunt Leia said and checked it out. Stefan was really a bad jerk who failed my mommy. If I see him, I'll definitely beat him up for my mommy!"
Aiden's fists were clenched tightly, and he didn't look like he was joking.
When he learned that his father was a scumbag, he decided he would teach the useless guy a lesson and seek justice for his mother.
It was unfortunate that Aiden had been in Beach City for so long, but he hadn't caught even a glimpse of the man!
"Occasionally, but I can do all the chores if necessary."
"Not bad! Not bad at all!" Aiden said and nodded in satisfaction before asking, "What about cooking? Do you know how to make any delicious dishes?"
"I don't cook much since I usually leave it to a chef, but I can whip up a few special dishes. If I pass the assessment, I'll cover all three meals daily for you and your mother."
Mr. Q seemed to be interested in both the position of Aiden's daddy and Renee's husband and had been actively fighting for both the entire time.
When Aiden saw this, he couldn't help but become more serious.
"Currently, it's all talk and no action. Why don't you prepare some of your special dishes now, and I'll let my mommy taste them? If she thinks they're delicious, you pass the test. However, if she doesn't, you'll have to enroll in a cooking class to keep practicing. What do you think?"
