Arthur gazed at Philip’s stern face and didn’t hesitate any longer. Turning to Apollo, who was sitting on the couch, he said, “Let’s see what you’ve got.”

He felt a twin

of discomfort as he said this, as if he were intimidating a child.

It’s not a fair fight: it’s one–sided aggression!

Oh, well. I can’t disobey the commander’s orders….

I’ll just stop when I have the upper hand. He’s just a kid.

Milly had been living with the Burnetts for a while now and was familiar with Arthur, so she was surprised to see Philip letting Arthur spar with Apollo. Her eyes widened in shock.

“Grandpa, should we just forget about this?”

Philip remained calm, his expression unchanging as he fiddled with the beads in his hand. “If the kid wins, I’ll let him carry the Burnetts‘ last name.

“When you start school, I’ll take care of him and guide him. What do you think?”

Milly listened to Philip’s words, biting her lip and remaining silent.

The conditions were indeed appealing. If Apollo had Philip’s protection, even if he was different from everyone else, no one would dare say anything to him.

But she still felt uneasy….

“Grandpa, Apollo is still young and hasn’t received any training. He can’t control his emotions yet. If they really fight, I’m worried something might happen

Philip hadn’t responded yet when Arthur spoke up to reassure her, ‘Don’t worry, Ms. Burnett. I’ll make sure to hold back and not hurt this young boy.”
