THIRD-PERSON POINT OF VIEW:

"Why are you coming with us?" Tristan frowned, showing his displeasure as he looked at the man with a sharp glare. The man scoffed at what he said. "Hey, I should be the one asking you that. Why are you coming with us? I'm supposed to play with Theodore today," the man said as he glared back at Tristan.

"Oh, is that so? I'm leaving, then," Tristan said as he smiled at him while raising his brows, clearly still annoyed at him.

"No! Uncle, you're not allowed to leave!" A little boy yelled loudly as he grabbed the hem of Tristan's shirt.

He was a kid with straight dark red hair that was almost close to black, sharp amber eyes, a tall nose, pink lips, and rosy chubby cheeks, resembling his father more.

Tistan looked at the man with a smug face as he shrugged. "What do we do about this, Xander? I guess he wants me here, too," Tristan said, smiling smugly.

Xander rolled his eyes as he frowned at him. "This bastard..." he whispered as he let out an annoyed sigh.

With that, the three of them left for the place where Theodore wanted to go to even though they hated each other's presence.

When they got there, Tristan could only laugh at himself for thinking that the little boy was your typical kid.

Instead of going to an amusement park, the zoo, a play place, or anywhere that kids usually enjoy going to, Theodore asked to go to the bookstore.

Yes, a bookstore.

Theodore loves storybooks so much. At a young age, the little boy can already read quite well. Although he still can't read continuously without pausing between words, it is fascinating how he can read them by himself. If people knew what he's capable of at his age, people would look at him strangely and brand him as a genius. However, to those who are dominant alphas and omegas or those who were surrounded by those kinds of people, something like that isn't something to be shocked about.

It was common for them because they were the elites of all the elites. And of course, even though Theodore was still too young to understand that, he already thinks that he's a very intelligent boy who's better than everyone.

Growing up spoiled and pampered, there was no doubt that he would have that kind of mindset.

Of course, because he was spoiled, that was one of the reasons why Tristan could never say no to him. He was the only baby in their family and everyone treasured him a lot.

"Go pick a storybook that daddy will read with you later," Xander said as he placed his hand on top of the little boy's head.

Theodore nodded with a bright smile and walked to the shelf where the storybooks were.

"Seriously, that kid... I thought he'd want to go somewhere else for a change," Tristan mumbled to himself and chuckled.

"Well, that's my son, alright," Xander said with a smile while watching his son go through the lower part of the shelf.

Tristan scoffed as he rolled his eyes. "He's more like Troy than you. There's no way my nephew takes after a person like you," he said as he crossed his arms.

"Hey, hey, watch what you say. As a kid, I loved reading books a lot. I was even the one who got Justin to love reading," Xander said proudly as he lifted his chin a little.

'Justin...?' Tristan's ears perked as soon as he heard his name. 'Ugh, I hate how they knew each other as kids...' he thought as he pursed his lips.

"Oh, speaking of Justin, I heard from Daryl that he's working in your company. Have you seen him there?" he said as he looked at Tristan. "Why are you talking to me as if we're close?" Tristan asked as he raised his brow.

"Wow, rude..." Xander said as he shook his head while clicking his tongue. "What is it to you anyway if I've seen him or not?" Tristan said as he glared at him.

"What the hell is wrong with you? I'm just curious about a friend.  Besides, I'm madly in love with my wife," Xander chuckled, finding it ridiculous that Tristan seemed to be jealous of him.

'Right, madly in love... I forgot that this guy literally talked back to my father for Troy,' Tristan thought, remembering how crazy Xander is.

Being a person whose mouth has no filter, it was obvious that Xander would defend Troy no matter who the other person is.

He talked back to Troy's father when he got mad that his son got pregnant. He didn't know that Xander was a dominant alpha at the time, so he was so furious. It even got to the point where he asked Troy to abort his baby.

Thankfully, Xander defended Troy and did everything he could to keep him and their child. Of course, the fact that he was a dominant alpha came to light and that was the reason why Troy's father allowed them to get married.

Although it was only once, talking back to him was a really brave thing to do. If he got on his bad side and things got bad, there's no telling what might have happened to Xander and his family the day after.

Tristan cleared his throat, feeling a bit embarrassed. "Whatever. It's still none of your business," he said as he looked sideways to avoid meeting Xander's eyes.

The phone that was inside his pocket suddenly rang. He took it and accepted the call from his secretary.

"What is it?" he said as soon as he picked up.

"Good morning, sir. I apologize for disturbing you today, but your presence is needed in the office right now. There's a problem with one of the investors, Mr. Yu, and his son was sent here to speak with you about it. I explained to him that you're not available at the moment, but he kept insisting that he wants to see you. I suppose this is a matter that needs to be taken of urgently, sir," Erika said on the other line, her voice trembling a bit from the nervousness.

She only got the job just recently, and facing something like this right off the bat really made her all nervous.

She felt even worse because she knew how scary Tristan can be, based on how he acted like it was nothing when she was all drenched in coffee. Also, the rumors about her boss are also something she took into consideration. If she does something wrong, she might really lose her job.

"I understand. I'll be there in 20 minutes," Tristan said as he looked at his wristwatch, estimating how long it would take him to reach there. "No... 15. I'll be there in 15," he said as he put his arm down.

"Understood, sir. I'll inform Mr. Yu about this," his secretary said on the other line. "Alright," Tristan said and ended the call.

"Hey, I'm leaving. Something came up," he said as he faced Xander. "Yeah. Say goodbye to Theo before leaving," Xander said as he looked at the little boy who was still busy looking through the books.

Tristan took a deep breath and walked towards Theodore. When he was already in front of him, he bent his knees to level his head with the boy. "Hey, kiddo. Uncle has to leave right now because something happened at work," he said and sighed.

"Are you leaving again? You also left last time," the little boy said as he faced Tristan while frowning.

They just got there but Tristan already has to leave. There was no doubt that he would get upset.

"Listen, how about this? I promise I'll be back as soon as I finish working. Would that be alright?" he said as he glanced at his watch quickly.

Theodore, being an intelligent kid, noticed that his uncle was really in a rush, leaving him no choice but to agree with what Tristan said.

"Okay," he replied as he nodded. "Good. I'll be back real soon," he said as he patted the little boy's head as he stood up.

He said goodbye to Theodore and Xander and quickly left the bookstore to head to the company.

Thankfully, the car they used earlier was his, so there was no problem with his transportation. Xander can easily call someone to bring them a car, so leaving with the car didn't pose any problem for their side either.

He quickly drove to the company, passing by each car that was on the other lanes.

Meanwhile, at the bookstore, Theodore was still busy looking at the books. Suddenly, a little boy came and stood next to him. He was also going through the storybooks just like him.

"Chester, I want that one!" A little girl ran towards the other boy and grabbed the same storybook that Theodore has set his eyes on, too.

"This is mine," Theodore said as he yanked the book from the little girl's hand. "My sister took that first," Chester said as he pointed to the book that Theodore was holding.

"But I wanted this first," Theodore said as he tightened his grip on the book.

"Hey, sweeties... What's the matter?" A man who's on the shorter side and had jet black hair walked up to the kids.

Xander who was watching his son argue with the other kids was stunned after seeing the person who was before him.

"That boy took my book," Chesca pouted with trembling lips as if she's about to cry any moment now. As Theodore watched her tell on the man that was with them, he couldn't help but feel annoyed.

"This is mine!" Theodore said a bit loudly, almost yelling.

"Oh, no... Let's go ask the big sister over there if they have another copy, shall we?" Justin said as he looked at a woman who's wearing the uniform of the bookstore's employees.

Chesca and Chester nodded with what Justin said, but before Justin could talk to Theodore about the storybook, Xander walked up to him.

"It really is you."
