Meet My Brothers by Red Thirteen ( Mia Bowen ) novel Chapter 994

One wrong move and things could go south. After all, children's moods were the most unpredictable.

Right then, Caleb closed the chat window.

"Tim, let's not rush right now."

Timothy couldn't help panicking. "Don't you see him asking a question? Hurry up and answer him!"

"It's not the right time to answer. Let's keep him hanging for a bit. Besides, you just said you have something to deal with later.

"Since he wants an answer now, he won't delete your number. At least not until you finish that story," Caleb explained.

"Isn't that obvious? What if he deletes my number right after I finish the story?"

"That's a problem for next time. But if you tell him now, he might delete your number as soon as he hears about the story."

"Are you sure about this?" Timothy asked skeptically.

"It's a strategy called 'luring him in by letting him go.' You even told him you were trying to bribe him. He definitely won't delete your number. His impression of you should also be much better now. After all, you were a hero of some sort."

Timothy looked at the computer and replied, "I never considered myself a hero. At least to the child, I am an unforgivable sinner."

"No. The term 'unforgivable sinner' falls short. To the kid, you are probably an irresponsible asshole."

Hearing the word "asshole", Timothy felt like he had been stabbed in the heart.

He snapped, "Shut up if you don't know what to say."
