Chapter 1539 An Unexpected Encounter

On the bustling main street, the family of three strolling together was particularly eye-catching. Every now and then, passersby would turn their gaze toward them. "Wow, that kid is so adorable, and his parents are quite attractive too."

"Yeah, why does it feel like we've seen that kid somewhere before?"

"He looks like that internet celebrity."

Elliot was initially quite elated, but upon hearing that someone might recognize him, he promptly put on

a mask.

"Mommy, let's hurry up."

Cecilia asked in confusion, "What's wrong?"

"Ah, stop with the questions," Elliot said, tugging at Cecilia as he felt the urge to make a quick escape.

Nathaniel abruptly hoisted him up, nestling Elliot's head against his own chest.

"I told you not to draw too much attention to yourself. Now, both your mother and I have to hide because of it. You might as well stay hidden."

Although Elliot was somewhat reluctant, he thought it was a good idea and found himself taking refuge in Nathaniel's embrace.

"Sc*mbag daddy, don't even think about asking for my help in the future, hmph!"

In spite of that, Elliot was all talk. Deep down, he still wanted to help Nathaniel.

The family arrived safely at a decent barbecue restaurant. Only when they were inside the private dining room did Elliot dare to show his face.

"Whew, I almost suffocated there."

"What on earth is going on?" Cecilia couldn't help but ask.

Elliot shared with her about his online streaming activities.

"Mommy, you wouldn't mind me live-streaming, would you?"

Every time, Elena would urge him to stop, offering to give him money directly.

"Of course I don't mind, Sweetie. It's impressive that you're live-streaming at such a young age," Cecilia praised, then added, "but remember, you're still young and your main focus should be on your studies."

The mention of his studies gave Elliot a headache. "Alright, Mommy."

The barbecued meat was served swiftly, and everyone enjoyed their meal.

Cecilia placed the grilled meat onto Elliot's plate, and Nathaniel would serve,

her.

Finished

After having a satisfying meal, Elliot felt the need to use the restroom. Feeling a bit shy, he said, "Mom, I need to go to the bathroom."

Upon hearing this, Cecilia stood up. "Alright, I'll take you there."

However, Nathaniel stopped her, "I'll take him. You stay here and rest."

Cognizant that Elliot needed to go to the men's, she felt it was better if Nathaniel accompanied him. So, she nodded and said, "Alright."

Once the two had left, Cecilia went to settle the bill. She then had the waiter pack up some barbecued meat. Afterward, she waited in the corridor for the father and son.

Not far off, a pair of figures approached. Upon spotting Cecilia, one of them couldn't help but call out, "Ms. Smith."

Upon hearing the voice, Cecilia turned to find a woman of above-average looks, dressed in formal attire. She pondered for a moment, then it struck her that the person before her seemed to be associated with Nicholas. Upon noticing that Cecilia didn't recognize her, Jocelyn was reminded of the former's memory loss. She couldn't help but clarify, "I'm Mr. Nicholas' personal assistant. My name is Jocelyn Wright. We knew each other before this." After hearing this, Cecilia gave her an embarrassed smile.

"Hello, I'm sorry that I've forgotten."

Jocelyn shook her head. "Don't worry about it."

Yannick, who was standing next to her, was also carefully observing Cecilia. Seeing the latter's serene and indifferent face, he couldn't help but feel a sense of indignance for Calvin.

"Ms. Smith, I wonder if you still remember me?"

Simultaneously, Cecilia and Jocelyn turned to look at him, both wearing expressions of utter bewilderment.

Isn't it obvious to Yannick?

He chuckled. "My name is Yannick Hayes. I'm a friend of your childhood friend."

My childhood friend.

Cecilia couldn't help but ask, "Are you referring to Calvin?"

"I didn't expect you to still remember Calvin. I thought you had forgotten him as well," Yannick said, his voice laced with a hint of sarcasm.
