"Listen, Fin. I indeed loved someone when I married your mom, but after I married Cecil, I slowly opened my heart to her and forgot my old love!"
Evan gasped for air as he explained things that he would never explain if not for this misunderstanding. Saying that you love your wife is kind of embarrassing for someone like Evan.
"I never cheat on your mom, and I also love her. If not, why would I give birth to you?" Evan let out a long sigh as he massaged his temple. "I'm not the type to bear a child just for the family."
"Uh…but mom always thought that you hated her because you rarely met her, and every time you two met each other, she said that you're always frowning…"
Finley had a sour look on his face as he retold what his mom told him. In his eyes, his dad is indeed a cold man that doesn't care about his wife.
But when Evan heard that, he suddenly looked a bit lost.
"Huh? I'm glaring at her? But I always try to hug her whenever we meet, but she's the one running away from me!" Evan was flabbergasted.
"I always sent her gifts, jewellery, and all kinds of things she would like after I went home from a long mission, but I guess she didn't like it because she never wore it?"
"Uh…mom said you sent her gifts because you feel guilty that you're cheating…"
"The heck? Just because I kept a female baby's necessities, does it make me cheat on her?" Evan raised his voice, unable to hold back his emotion.
Isn't this misunderstanding too big to begin with?
"But dad, mom said she once saw you go on a date with your old love…"
"Ah, we just coincidentally met at the cafe around the estate. Back then, she was with her maids, and I was also with my people. We didn't meet alone."
Evan pressed the space between his eyebrows as he continued to explain the misunderstanding. From the so-called affair, and his so-called cold behaviours…
All of that was just a big misunderstanding.
Well, his scary face also contributed a lot to the misunderstanding.
After Finley finished listening to his dad's explanation, he suddenly slumped to the sofa.
"Ahhh…damn it. So mom passed away with a heart full of grievances, but she didn't know the truth!" Finley suddenly regretted complying with his mom's wish to be the sacrifice.
He could just let Chronos take his soul as the price of turning back time, never to reincarnate, but then, his mom became the sacrifice…
"Oh, right, dad. Maybe it's still not too late." Finley, who was looking gloomy, suddenly brightened up. He looked at Percival, the oracle fairy, before looking at his dad.
"I heard from Chronos that mom would reincarnate as a young woman outside of the mafia family. She's going to be in another country. If dad can find her soul in her new body…"
Finley paused. He peeked at his dad's serious face before continuing.
"You can possibly meet her and then pursue her? Even though she won't remember you, at least you can make up for what you can't give her in the past– "
Before Finley could finish, Evan suddenly stood up. He grabbed Finley's hands and grasped it tight. "Is that true? Chronos said Cecile is going to reincarnate into a young woman's body?"
"Err, yeah– "
"Okay, then. If you can tell dad when Cecile is going to reincarnate, dad will find some soul shamans to find her soul!" Evan's eyes lit up like a child getting candy.
It was the first time Finley saw his dad getting overly excited like now.
The concept of reincarnation was not a secret in this world, and that's why shamans with a contracted dead spirit that could detect souls were fairly popular to find the reincarnated people.
Even though these people wouldn't remember their past life anymore, their loved one would try to get them back. Well, as long as they didn't bother the reincarnated people's new life.
However, only a tiny part of society could do this because a dead spirit with soul-related ability was extremely scarce. Fairies and other creatures related to souls that could detect one's unique soul was also not easy to find.
However, the Walter family could do that thanks to Aetheria.
Chronos's lukewarm relationship with Aetheria and her good relationship with Finley made it possibly for the family to even detect their reincarnated enemy and extinguished their souls or something.
This was why ever since Finley got Chronos, Finley's value in the Walter Family was top-notch. And that's why a lot of people wanted him dead.
Because thanks to Finley, offending the Walter family was the same as never reincarnating again. And if you could reincarnate, they also could detect you wherever you are and kill you once more!
This time, Evan wanted to borrow Aetheria's power to find his wife's reincarnated body. Even when Aetheria was only the fairy of space, she could at least detect reincarnated souls.
But to extinguish souls, the Walter Family usually paid some prices to the fairy of soul and spirits.
That fairy was also a royal fairy close to Percival, Evan's contracted fairy. Ah, Percival could also foresee where Cecile's new body is, and so on.
In short, this family was a giant among giants until Aetheria made a contract with Blair in the past.
After the father and son discussed finding their mom's reincarnated body, the topic went back to Ainsley and the casino.
"So, Fin, tell me. What is Ainsley to you until you want to accompany her to the casino silently?"
Evan looked at his son with a slightly mischievous smile.
