Slumdog Billionaire Husband by Rayden Berg

Chapter 517 Things Brought by Dax

In a two-bedroom apartment at Area 45 in the North, Keith sat on the sofa, holding Danica. Since it was

late, Danica had fallen asleep in Keith’s arms.

She smacked her lips as if dreaming of something delicious.

Danica was just a child and did not quite understand what had happened, but Keith was different. He

was already eleven years old. He knew well that because his parents had passed away, he and Danica

could only depend on each other from now on.

Now he was immersed both in the sadness of his parent’s death and the uncertainty about the future.

He didn’t know what to do or what he should do in the future!

How should he and his sister live their life hereafter? He didn’t know the answer.

Everything to come turned very unknown. Meanwhile, what happened in the morning was constantly

reappearing in his mind. It was like a nightmare. He saw his parents die in front of him, torn apart by

that monster!

Keith kept wiping away his tears!

There was a woman sitting there in the room, too. She said with sadness and concern, “Keith, Danica

is asleep. Send her to bed and let her have a good sleep. Everything will be fine. In the days to come,

we will take care of you and give you the best education…”

Though she was comforting Keith, Keith just sat on the sofa and seemed not listening at all.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door.

The woman soon sat up and went to the door. She was slightly stunned when she saw Gerald and

Carolyn. She asked, “May I know who you are?”

“I’m Gerald!” Gerald answered calmly.

As she heard the name, the woman’s expression changed instantly!

Gerald was a legend among the Watchmen. People in the North naturally knew of this name.

“It’s you!” The woman turned a bit nervous.

Gerald smiled and said, “It’s alright. Could you please go out first? I’ll try to talk with him!”

Just right at the door, Gerald had heard Keith sobbing, as well as how the woman comforted Keith.

Gerald stood at the door and sighed.

He had carried out many missions and had seen many tragedies like this. He thought that he would

be immune to it one day, yet he still felt sorry every time he witnessed one. The more he saw it, the

stronger his hatred of Elite Ghost grew.

Thus, when Blood Lotus colluded with Elite Ghost and obstructed Night Watch, Gerald detested the

Blood Lotus very much.

The woman nodded. As one of the Watchmen, she bowed to Gerald and left the room.

Gerald and Carolyn walked into the room..

They came to the sofa.

Keith looked up and saw Gerald, his face showing a trace of bitterness. He recognized Gerald and said

in sadness, “Mr. Kenneth, my parents…”

Gerald raised one hand, gently touched the back of Keith’s head, and said, “I’m sorry, Keith. It was our

fault. We let you down!

“But let me tell you a story!” Gerald added.

Keith nodded.

Gerald put down his hand from Keith’s head and said, “I’ve been there, too. Back then, I was framed.

and was almost sentenced to life imprisonment!”

Gerald began to talk about his past experiences and the battles he had with the Elite Ghost.

It worked. The boy was attracted by his words.

Gerald told the story gently, and Keith listened carefully. After almost an hour, Gerald finally said, “So,

Keith, engrave this hatred on your mind. The battle is still going on, and we don’t know how long it will

last. We have no choice but to face it. As men, we have to stand out. You are the eldest in your family

now. You have to be indomitable!”

Keith cried and nodded. “That’s right. I am going to be indomitable. I want to fight the Elite Ghosts

too. I want to be like you, Mr. Kenneth.”

Hearing that, Gerald felt a bit sad.

He rubbed Keith’s head and said, “Work hard and train hard. In the future… you could be an

outstanding Watchman. You could protect your sister and protect the world!”

Gerald’s words sowed into Keith’s mind, and it seemed they had soon taken root and sprouted!

With Gerald talking with him all the time, Keith finally seemed to grow a little sleepy. Gerald then

coaxed Keith to sleep. After that, he winked at Carolyn.

Carolyn got it and soon picked up Keith and carried him to the room next door.

“Let’s go and find Franklin!” after coaxing the little boy to sleep, Gerald said slowly.

This time, Franklin must pay for Terry’s death and must die. No matter what Franklin would say, Gerald

would not spare his life anymore.

He stood up and walked outside. The woman was still waiting outside. Gerald was stunned and said,

“You can go in now. Actually, you don’t have to make yourself so tired.”

“Compared to you guys, there is just a little I can do.” The woman smiled bitterly.

The woman was not a fighter of Night Watch. She was in charge of support services, so she had seen

many heavily injured Watchmen, and many of them had even died in front of her.

Yet she could do nothing about it!

Gerald smiled kindly and said, “All of us are just doing our jobs. We are about to set off now!”

The woman nodded.

Gerald and Carolyn walked downstairs and headed to the prison.

Within a few steps, Gerald and Carolyn suddenly stopped and looked toward a place not far away.

Under the street lamp, a person was standing there. He was wearing a trench coat, holding a deck of

cards, and carrying a backpack!

“Dax!” Carolyn’s face showed a hit of anger.

“Relax. I am here to deliver things to you. I came to the North to fight against the Elite Ghosts, too,” he

hurriedly said.

“We don’t need you!” Carolyn sneered in an imposing manner.

Gerald did not expect that Dax would come here too.

He stopped Carolyn and looked up at Dax, saying, “Blaine spared your life. I don’t know why, but I don’t

want to fuss about it now. Tell me, what did you bring us?”

Dax let out a breath and threw a backpack at Gerald. “These are the new battle suits developed by Dr.

T. They will be of great help. Moreover, Dr. T had cracked the secret of the iron box, and it says…”

At this moment, there was suddenly the click of footsteps.

Dax’s expression changed, and he said, “Let’s talk another day!”

After he finished speaking, there suddenly came a strange voice.

Whew!

Just then, Gerald saw a wave of heat surging from Dax’s body. Dax jumped onto the nearby roof at an

extremely fast speed. With just a few jumps, Dax disappeared into the night.

“He is wearing the new battle suit?” Gerald frowned.
