“Alright, have a rest!”

Rowan huffed and got up to dismiss himself. Before he left the room, though, Liam stopped him.

“Mr. Irwin, hold on!”

Rowan turned around slowly. “Anything else?”

Liam did not say anything and merely waved him over. Rowan frowned in disdain but could not bear to be petty with someone of his father’s age.

With a long face, he plopped himself down on the couch next to Liam’s bed.

Liam watched him with a discreet smile.

“What is it?” Rowan checked his watch. It was about lunchtime, and he needed to rush to Imperial Media to take a look at his precious daughter!

Liam kept his smile and turned serious as he lowered his voice to ask, “Mr. Irwin, have you managed to find out anything?”

Rowan’s expression went stiff, and his gaze dimmed.

Liam more or less understood it looking at his face.

“It’s alright, go on.” He chuckled. “I’m what, 70 to 80 now. What haven’t I seen? Something small like this won’t alarm me.”
