With one deal after the next, Mr. Q gradually overca the other n to beco Aiden’s favorite and most suitable ’daddy1 candidate.
As for whether Mr. Q would be the most suitable ’husband’ for his mother, Aiden had to further examine him to be sure.
"Q, let tell you sothing..."
After playing with the ga console enthusiastically, Aiden suddenly turned serious and said, "I went to the kindergarten with Mommy today, and we were bullied. They said I couldn’t attend that kindergarten because
I didn’t have a daddy. I really liked that kindergarten, and It makes so sad that I’m not allowed to attend. Is it true that children without a daddy like are always dood to be inferior?"
Mr. Q’s brows suddenly furrowed deeply, and he asked in a low voice, "How can you not have a daddy? Didn’t you say that your daddy was Liam, the sixth son of the Blackwood s?"
"Ah... Since we’re already so close, I will tell you the truth. Indeed, Daddy Liam is my daddy, but he’s not my real daddy. Mommy has already broken up with him, and she doesn’t want to give him trouble. Because of that, I’m not allowed to look for him..."
"Broken up?’
Mr. Q’s tone seed a little playful, but he followed up with more urgency," Then, do you know who your real daddy is?"
"Of course I do!"
Aiden hooked a finger toward the man with a mysterious look on his face.
"Co closer and give your ear. I’ll tell you!"
The man frowned, but he did as he was told. He bent down and brought his ears closer to the child. There was clear tension in the man’s broad shoulders as he waited with bated breath.
Aiden blinked his big eyes and said cutely, "It’s a secret, but I don’t actually have a daddy. I only have a mommy. Mommy said she carefully raised in a spirit stone for several months, then ’boom,’ and I popped right out!"
Mr. Q was speechless. He must be a real dumb*ss to let a little kid tease him like this!
"Q, don’t you believe it?"
"Haha... What do you think?"
Naivety and pureness filled Aiden’s glassy eyes, and he hurriedly explained, "I really didn’t lie! Mommy told that! You can ask her next ti if you don’t believe .’
Even though Aiden hadn’t believed it back then when Joanna had explained it to him like this, this kind of statent used to coax idiots were really what Joanna had told him.
If he used the sa words she did, Aiden shouldn’t be lying, right?
After all, Mr. Q and that jerk, Ace, were enemies, and if Aiden were to divulge the truth to Mr. Q, his life would probably be in danger. He wouldn’t have the chance to find a daddy if that happened, much less a husband for his mother!
"And?"
Being played by the little kid like a fool, Mr. Q wasn’t sure whether he should be angry or laughing, so he asked coldly, "What’s the purpose of telling all this?"
Aiden’s eyes shone brightly. He gave Mr. Q a sunny smile and said kindly," Don’t you think I’m pitiful for not having a daddy? Don’t you have the impulse to be my daddy?"
"That’s... a possibility."
"You barely et the qualifications to be my daddy, but to be my mommy’s husband, I’ll still need to think about it and do so tests. If it works out, I’ll arrange a eting with my mommy. If it fails, I’ll look around to pick soone else for her," Aiden said, logically explaining Mr. Q his ideas.
Mr. Q indifferently asked, "Did your mother agree to all this nonsense?"
"What do you an by nonsense? My mommy is a young, single woman in her pri, and it’s only natural that she finds soone. She not only agreed but even encouraged to find soone for her. It’s just that... my mommy is very demanding!’
"Is that so? Let’s hear it, then," Mr. Q said with great interest.
"First of all, my mommy likes tall, handso young n. So, n below 188 centiters, under thirty years old, and lacking good looks fail the criteria imdiately."
Aiden rubbed his chin while talking as he continued to consider Mr. Q’s eligibility.
"I’ve known you for so long, and your height and age seem fine. I just don’t know how you look. You might want to start by taking off your mask?
"Hmm...’ Mr. Q humd 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 et your mother’s requirents."
Aiden stared at the man for a long ti, a frown on his little face. He seed conflicted for a long ti 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 lanted, ’If she did, why would she have married that jerk, Ace, in the first place? She ended up getting so badly bullied. What did he have apart from a handso 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?"
"Co 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 Ace Moran is? He’s famous in the 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 ss with other won?"
"Did your mother tell you that?"
"Of course not. I secretly listened to what Aunt Clara said and checked it out. Ace 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 the City for so long, but he hadn’t caught even a glimpse of the man!
Mr. Q calmly said, "Capabilities are also part of a charm. Since you’ve checked, you should know that Ace had robust capabilities in business. All his endeavors are very successful, and perhaps that’s what got your mother infatuated with him."
"I agree that he’s quite capable, but Mommy is not any less good than him. They’re evenly matched. So, in conclusion, he still relied on that pretty face of his to win over Mommy! Other than having a good-looking face, he has nothing else!"
When he said that, Aiden’s brows were deeply furrowed, and he clenched his fists even tighter. There was a look of sorrow and anger on his face as he continued, "Adults say that lust reduces a person’s vigilance to ashes, so how co Mommy doesn’t understand that?!"
"Having learned from the past, I won’t let Mommy repeat the sa mistake! The outside of a person is important, but the inside is even more important! I want to choose a husband for my mommy with better insides than the outside!"
Mr. Q beca interested and asked, "You have a good head on those shoulders. How do you intend to choose?"
"First of all, he has to be good to my mommy and can take care of her. With that said, the first step of the test is to check if he has a good temper. He has to be able to do housework and know how to cook a good al..."
Aiden sized Mr. Q up like a boss considering a new recruit for hire, then said in a serious manner, "Q, I see that you have a good temper. You showed up on ti for your appointnt in the middle of the night and played gas with with a lot of patience. Those qualities alone make you better than that jerk. Do you usually do housework?"
"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 assessnt, I’ll cover all three als daily for you and your mother."
Mr. Q seed to be interested in both the position of Aiden’s daddy and Joanna’s husband and had been actively fighting for both the entire ti.
When Aiden saw this, he couldn’t help but beco more serious.
"Currently, it’s all talk and no action. Why don’t you prepare so 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?"
