Aino immediately tugged on Maysun's arm. "Miss Maysun, Miss Maysun, let me tell you. My Dad is actually in a very, very bad mood."
"What's wrong?" Maysun asked. Actually, she did not need to ask to know that it was because Sebastian's wife had been snatched away by someone.
Aino called out to Maysun softly. "Miss, come over here, and I will tell you."
Maysun then followed Aino out.
Aino looked miserable. "Miss Maysun, do you know? The man who snatched my mom away is not just anybody. He is my dad's younger twin brother. He is m y uncle. My uncle was already in love with my mom when we were on Star Island back then. In fact, my mom..." Aino suddenly stopped mid sentence. She hung her head.
"What's the matter with your mother?" asked Maysun.
"No...nothing!" Aino kept shaking her head.
There was a pause before she looked at Maysun again. "Miss Maysun, my dad is in an immensely terrible mood today. I already knew that you and my dad go way back. Could you help me console him? I was wrong just now. I shouldn't have been so fierce to you. I just did not want others to snatch my mom's place away. But...but, I'm worried about my dad even more.
Miss Maysun, may I please...ask you for a favor?" Aino raised her head and looked at Maysun with a pitiful expression.
Maysun was puzzled. "What favor? Go ahead. I will help you as long as it's something I could do."
'Actually, it's not that hard to win a child over!' Maysun sneered secretly.
"Miss Maysun, could you accompany my dad when m y mom is not back yet? When my mom has returned, you just...return my dad to my mom. Could you? If you agree, I...will not curse and say that you're a mistress. I would even agree for you to be together with my dad," said Aino.
