Chapter 401: Picking up the sister at school

A couple of hours passed.

Wil was now watching the dungeon gameplay of B-division where Death King (Min) was guiding everyone.

*Ring* Ring*

"Hmm, mom?" He frowned as soon as he saw the number. He was conflicted about whether to lift it or not. But, after seeing her for a week, Wil also knew that she'll call the office if he ignores the call. So, he picked it up reluctantly, "Hello."

"Where are you, Wil?" She asked him.

"Office at SGC. Had important work." Wil answered her as he prepared the excuse beforehand. "I will return by evening."

"Ah, I see" Her tone turned slightly dull but then, she asked, "you had lunch, yet?"

"Nope."

"Then, I'm sending the lunch with someone. I made eastern dishes as you asked. Be sure to eat all." Without giving him a chance to reject it, Scarlet quickly disconnected the call after informing him.

After a while, a bodyguard brought the lunchbox or more like a five-layer bento box.

He opened it.

The first one is rather a simple miso soup. The second box contains a tempura dish. The third one is rice and thick curry made of beef, potato, and carrots. The fourth one is a Seaweed Salad, and the last one is an ice-cream-filled mochi. 

He doesn't how did this dessert didn't melt even at room temperature but it tastes f**k**g as hell.

People say the way to man's heart is through the stomach. For that half an hour, Wil really forgot all of the animosity he had against his mother and thoroughly enjoyed the food. Now, he really wanted to eat the food his mother makes every time.

Back at the Venus apartments, Scarlet was watching her favorite tv drama.

*Buzz* *Buzz* her phone vibrated.

"Hmm" She looked at the text. Instantly, a smile appeared on her, "it looks like Wil liked the food if he finished everything." A thought appeared in her mind. "Should I start making eastern dishes for Mia and Rey too? Scott also stayed here for some time. So, he probably will also like it. Yeah, even Rea used to love eastern dishes"

Suddenly, her face dimmed upon remembering her twin sister she grew up with. Scarlet fell into sadness, "I haven't heard from you for six years now. Where have you gone? Are you captured? Are you even alive? Just need a small clue"

Letting out a deep sigh, Scarlet put her thoughts aside and focused on the television.

***

A few hours later;

Darwin Institutions, Leafway city;

Just like the other private institutions, several children born with a silver spoon are attending the school. With the school timings over, the scene of Cars lining up at the entrance of the school is common.

On the other side, some are just exiting the gate by bicycle, and others just are walking out.

Just like others, a luxurious vehicle of Liger Brand stopped at the entrance and a driver get down to wait for the kid of his employer.

Norman-Liger, commonly referred to as NL, is an automotive brand headquartered in the city of Pregas, the Western continent. It is popularly known for producing only luxury vehicles with a starting price of a hundred thousand dollars (200 thousand yuan/ 1million credits).

It isn't that rare in top-tier cities like Ares or Pregas. However, in the first-tier city like Leafway, wherever such vehicles go, it tends to attract the people around even if it is for a moment.

On top of that, this one is even more of a luxury one that costs nearly five hundred thousand dollars.

And considering the location is a school, then such vehicles grab even more attention from the students and their parents. So, it's not an exaggeration that every kid or adult passing by at least glances at the vehicle for once.

Meanwhile, a 13-year-old girl with short hair exited the academic building along with two of her friends or one should say her underlings. Even her school bag was carried by one of them.

Everyone's eyes are on the rich granddaughter of their school's Chairman wherever she passed by and the people walking in the front instantly gave the way. Wang Xieren is known to be a spoiled brat who acts sometimes like a bully too.

With no teacher dares to take action on her, the students could only either flatter her or ignore her.

As for why no senior tries to bully her in return is that she was a taekwondo practitioner with a Red Belt. A year ago, once a tenth-grade senior tries to trick her but she used violence and broke his bones. In the end, it was declared as self-defense, and the student that complained got a demerit instead.

Since then, no one dared to mess with her. Soon, they reached the vehicle parked outside and her underlings got inside. This was also one of the merits when one sticks with the rich. They can get free rides along with free lunch/dinner treats.

Just when she was about to get inside the vehicle, her eyes fell on a group of three exiting the gate. Two of them have bicycles while the other one didn't.

Saying goodbye to her friends, Mia stood on the side alone, looking at the distant left in anticipation.

"Hey Westerner," Wang Xieren called her in a loud tone, grabbing Mia's attention.

"Hmm?" Mia looked at her curiously, "what this girl wants?" She gestured abruptly raising her chin, asking her what the matter is.

"Which babysitter are you waiting for this time?" Xieren tried to taunt her for no reason. When there's no reply, she further said, "There's space inside our car. Come. I'll drop you at home. You might not get a chance in your life to ride a car like mine." 

Mia ignored her and looked at her phone, trying to dial a number.

It was then a white sports car and an SUV appeared in everyone's view. For a moment, every single person halted their footsteps and stared at the car that stopped right before Mia who was also seemed to be taken aback. The window was slid down and she saw it was none other than Wil on the driver's seat.

"Big Brother?" Mia took a step back in surprise and then, took a look at the car before her. "Is that yours?" She knew that Wil is rich but didn't know that he will drive this kind of vehicle.

"Hop in," Wil said to her while clicking on a button. The right door automatically opened itself, revealing Wil's appearance for those who are on the other side of the street.

Glancing at Xieren, she grinned and waved her hand, gesturing goodbye before she got inside. Soon, Wil started to drive. The SUV also followed behind, leaving a shocked Xieren in a daze for a while.

As Wil continued to drive, Mia looked around the interior of the vehicle curiously. "Big Brother, Can I ask something?"

"What is it?"

"Don't you have any other cars other than this?" She asked him, hinting that she was uncomfortable.

Wil immediately understood she was a little bit embarrassed to get into such a high-end car in front of everyone.
