Chapter 86

“Alex, Ajax, are you lot stirring up trouble again?”

Suddenly, a slightly chubby middle-aged man walked over from a distance. He wore flip-flops and had a stick in his hand.

He quickly walked to Madelyn’s side and gave her a once-over. Then, he asked with concern, Kid… Did they do anything to you?”

Madelyn shook her head, “Nope.”

Meanwhile, Alex stood at the side with a look of disdain.

The man seemed to know Madelyn. He asked again, “Are you the girl Rosario brought back from the city? Mad… Mad something?

“Madelyn Jent.”

The man gasped and said, “Yes, yes, yes, Madelyn. When Rosario left earlier, she told me to look after you, but I was too busy and lost track of time. Don’t worry. With me around, these hooligans won’t dare to do anything to you.”

He continued, “I’m telling you, Alex. You’re a girl, can you act a bit more reserved? Why are you dressed up like this every day? And you guys! All you guys do is play truant! Hurry up and leave, or I’ll whoop your asses.”

Alex started smoking impatiently, “Hey, fatso. Why are you butting in when I’m talking to her? Mind your own business. You’re already this old, yet you’re still all hung up about some old hag. Tsk!”
