Robert thought about it and said, "Why don't we eat at the canteen in Dad's office? I heard the food there is great, but I've never been there before."
"Sure! Will they let us in?"
He chuckled. "I'm just going to let them have a good look at me."
"Do they all know you?"
He giggled. "Of course, not. I mean I'm going to use the face recognition system to get in. Dad's security system has face recognition, and Dad entered us all into the system."
"Oh! I thought all of Dad's employees know you!" She sighed a breath of relief.
"Do you know how many employees work for him? Thousands!" he said. "Only a few of the managers have seen me because Dad is quite protective of us. Search online and you will only find that Hayden is listed as Dad's son. You can't find anything on Layla and I."
"I tried." Ivy did so in Taronia and could only find Hayden. "But since Layla uploaded that advert, I'm pretty sure everyone knows who she is."
"That’s because she's working, and it doesn’t matter if others know." Robert noticed the red traffic light ahead and slowed the car down. "It's a dangerous world out there, and the people we are in contact with are all nice people, but there are a lot of bad people that we don't see. Not announcing that we are his children is his way of protecting us."
"I know. He wants to prevent us from getting kidnapped."
"Society has improved, and the neighborhood security has improved as well. There are more rich people than before."
"Robert, maybe you just know more rich people because you are one of them," Ivy said. "There are still a lot of people who are struggling. They mainly focus on making ends meet, and it's unlikely that you will run into any of them."
Robert glanced at Ivy intently.
