âI thought you’ve learned your lesson after all these years I didn’t expect you to be this wayward as you were in the past!
“You had this coming for being her reason to give up on medicine”
Despite his sharp tongue, Joel had always been a man with a soft heart.
“Do you know how many times he had told me off? He just won’t stop scolding me. If I had not told him that you’ll return Madison to him, I wouldn’t have known what to do.”
“Thank you so much for pulling some strings, Uncle Tucker.”
Joel waved his hand.
“Enough with this. I promised you because I saw the potential in her. If she was useless, I wouldn’t have wasted my time on this.
“Let’s talk about you. Are you really willing to let her go? Don’t regret it tomorrow. I’m too old to play games with you youngsters.
“Don’t worry, Uncle Tucker. I was immature back then. I thought that what I did was for her sake. Now, I understand that loving someone is not fettering her wings but respecting her dreams.”
“You wouldn’t have ended up this way if you realized this sooner. But it’s still not too late to make up for your mistakes. You have a long journey ahead.”
“Got it.”
“Now, scram. Let’s not meet each other anymore.”
“Thank you for taking care of us this whole time, Uncle Tucker.” Hunter left and entered the car.
Madison didn’t know what kind of conversation the men shared. She kept feeling that Hunter had changed a lot compared to before.
The car was slowly driven out of the basement. After they steered through the darkness, it was bright ahead of them.
The streets were filled to the brim with people who were excited to welcome the New Year.
“It’s been years since we last welcomed the New Year together,” Hunter suddenly exclaimed.
“Yeah.” Comment by soonyoung gu: whose fault is that
After a race with the death, Madison felt fortunate to be able to stay alive. She didn’t even notice that it was almost time to welcome the New Year.
Today’s the last day. Where are you taking me?” She looked at him. You’ll find out when we arrive.”
The car was slowly driven out of the city, heading toward the suburbs. The dancing snowflakes adorned the beautiful scenery with a light touch.
The road was getting steeper. The farther they traveled, the fewer buildings they could see.
In the end, there was only snow and the woods.
Madison grabbed onto the armrest tightly due to the rough journey.
She didn’t know how long they had traveled.
There was no sign of people at all.
As they explored deeper into the mountain, her phone showed no signal.
Hunter explained, “There’s no signal here.”
She wondered, “Just where are we going? What a mysterious place.”
Soon, brightness shone ahead of them. Although it was surrounded by mountains, the land was spacious, with an archery range and a drill.
They could hear people shouting their slogans from afar.
As they approached the crowd, Madison could see a young man in the snow.
He seemed to be ten years old. The kid standing behind him appeared to be five years younger than him.
The boys were wearing the same clothes. They wore boots, so they ran on the snowfield with difficulty.
She didn’t know how long they had been running, but he seemed exhausted. He was huffing and puffing.
The kid before him pulled ahead with a huge gap between them. Although the boy was slow, he showed no intention of stopping.
It broke her heart to watch that as she grabbed Hunter’s wrist. “I-Is that our child?”
“It is. That’s Connor.”
“He’s still a young boy! How could you let him be!” cried Madison.
It was the child she delivered after suffering for months.
She already cared about Connor so much when she assumed that he was Andrea’s kid, let alone after finding out that he was her own son.
How could she bring herself to let him be?
“Madie, I have to train him so that he can protect himself. Spoiling him will only do him no good. Comment by soonyoung gu: not ethan if he’s not narcissistic
“Besides, he’s stronger than you think he is. Don’t underestimate him because of his young age. He’s willing to take this upon himself. Look.”
Connor fell onto the ground due to unsteady steps.
Her heart wrenched when his little face smacked into the snow.
Madison hurriedly opened the door, wanting to get out of the car.
However, Hunter pulled her back. “Madie, since I’ve entrusted him to the trainer, let’s not interrupt his training.
The rules say it all here.
“If you wanna meet him, you have to wait until he reaches all of his targets for all of the training.”
Madison leaned against the window to watch outside. The tall man reached out to Connor. It seemed like he was asking the boy if he needed some rest.
After all, Connor was Hunter’s son. The trainer would more or less make up an excuse for Connor to rest.
Connor didn’t take the trainer’s hand. “I-I can get up on my own.
He slowly got back to his feet.
Despite the small frame, there was an enormous strength in him.
Once again, he slowly ran forward to keep up with the troop.
Madison didn’t know what was on his mind.
Even though he couldn’t keep up with the troop, he still ran forward with all his might.
The guilt grew in her because she felt that she owed him too much. Tears were flowing down her cheeks.
She didn’t know what kind of life Hunter had been through, but Connor was still a child to her!
By the time Connor finished running, the older kids had already gone for a meal.
When he arrived at the canteen, there was only leftover food.
Madison couldn’t tolerate that. “He’s just a kid. How is he going to grow up if he can’t even eat well? No. I have to take him with me.”
“Calm down, Madie. This is how the kids go through their days here. A dietician is looking after them.
“Connor is taller than his peers, and he’s healthy. He’s my son. It pains me to watch him like this, too.”
She watched the boy sit down meekly without complaining.
When he was going to start to dig in, the lady in charge of the canteen brought him a plate of food.
Have this, young boy I left it especially for you.”
“Thank you.”
She sighed. “How pitiful. Your parents had abandoned you at such a young age! Eat up!
Connor let out a faint smile. “My parents didn’t abandon me. I came here on my will. They’re good people.”
After he took a few spoonfuls of it, a tall kid swept his food off the table.
The tall kid smirked. “Eat up.”
Madison clenched her fists at that. “Why is bullying still happening here? It is already bad enough.”
Calm down, Madie. Connor is here not only to build himself up.”
“What else then?”
“People like us have to train with our peers. Take Kelvin, Brent, and the others for an example. We’ve been through fire together. They can even take a shot for me in a war.
“If we assigned a few men to Connor, do you think that they’ll genuinely respect and protect him? You should know that he might die if they mutiny.”
Madison gradually calmed herself down. “What do you mean?”
“He’s here not only to build himself up. Most importantly, he has to tame these wild people who come from different backgrounds.
“In the future, these people will become his significant weapon!”
It was a nearly insurmountable challenge for Connor.
He was still so small. It was devastating for him both physically and mentally.
The tall and slender boy had a few other kids at his side. He seemed to be the leader of the group.
The boy’s frame was slender, and his collarbone was very pronounced.
It was clear that he had a rough life and was a little malnourished. But the boy didn’t possess the naivete of kids his age.
His eyes reminded Madison of an alpha male of a wolf pack. They were filled with ruthlessness and authority.
“The kid’s name is Titus. He might be young, but he’s an orphan we found on the battlefield up north.
“He was eating corpses for sustenance when we found him. He often had to fight against vultures for food.
Madison gagged at the thought. “He ate human meat!”
“Rotten meat, to be precise. Humans would do anything to survive. He would have eaten dirt if he had to. Titus was the name he gave himself..
“He never knew his parents. He was on the verge of death when we found him. He was infected with several illnesses, too,
“He was sent here for training right after he recovered. He’s also the leader of the kids here. Do you know why he was bullying Connor?”
“He wanted to be the Alpha, but Connor didn’t acknowledge his authority?”
âThat’s true. Connor is still young, but he knows what his goal is. He will never admit defeat so easily.
“He didn’t submit, so Titus wanted a chance to put him in his place.”
After hearing the explanation, Madison was curious about the decision Connor would make.
Titus crossed his arms and had a mocking and cruel smile on his face.
âI’m pretty curious. Which wealthy family are you from? What did you do to end up here? Even the canteen lady kept food for you. You don’t deserve special treatment!”
Titus didn’t know Connor’s identity. All he knew was Connor was completely different from the other kids here.
Connor had pale and tender skin and a better build than most kids his age. He was unlike the rest of them, who looked malnourished.
So. Connor got the nickname “Young Master” as soon as he got here. He lowered his head to look at the lunchbox and food scattered on the floor.
No one could see his expression clearly.
