Who's Crying Now, Ex-Husband?

Chapter 244

He hailed a cab and headed towards Northridge Institute of Technology, flipping through the recently captured videos on his phone. The clips showed his cousin feeding Giselle affectionately, but they were rather bland.

"Is this all there is? Can't we get something more exciting?"

A sudden realization struck him. Could it be his presence was making his cousin too embarrassed to get closer to Giselle? Would he have to resort to sneaky tactics to capture anything worthwhile in the future?

He should have lingered at the hospital a bit longer. Once he left, only Giselle and Lysander remained in the room.

Excited, he tapped on the notification immediately.

The comic's protagonist was still Red Hat, the little robot. In this issue, the robot, on its world tour and quest to reach the moon, encounters a brilliant mechanic who installs a pair of pristine mechanical wings on its back. Red Hat flaps its new wings, soaring towards the moon.

Archie read with growing excitement. Could this finally be the moment when the little robot reaches the moon?

But as he turned the page, the artwork took a dramatic turn. Just as Red Hat was about to touch the moon, the immaculate wings shattered.
