After playing the shooting game, Anderson bounced along ahead.
"Hmm, what do you want to play next? Go on the kiddie rollercoaster?" Joyce asked, following behind Anderson.
"Okay." Anderson nodded.
He glanced at the nearby merry-go-round and spinning teacups that were some distance away.
"I won't go on the girls' rides."
Luther had just gone to buy ice cream, chocolate flavored.
He caught up and handed the ice cream cone to Anderson.
"Anderson, have some ice cream. There's a VR shooting game here that simulates real life scenarios. Wanna go play with Mom? Can do team battles." Luther asked.
"No need. We already have VR controllers at home. I'm sick of those games from playing too much with Uncle Roberts. Besides, even in a team battle, Mom alone would beat everyone." Anderson acted like a little adult, disdainful.
Mentioning Trey, Anderson suddenly missed him a bit. Hadn't seen Uncle Roberts in a long time, he was in Mufron helping Mom with her career. Although they hadn't met in person, they still often ran into each other online when Anderson was gaming. Sometimes when he logged in he would team up with Uncle Roberts if he was online too.
"Alright, Anderson can play whatever he wants." Luther looked at Anderson gently.
Anderson took the ice cream cone and after a few licks, he suddenly handed it to Joyce.
"Mom, hold this for me first. There's an activities center up ahead, I'm going to the bathroom. You guys just wait here for me. Mom, sit and rest a bit, you've been walking a lot today, don't overexert yourself."
Joyce looked into the distance, the activities center was probably over fifty meters away but within sight.
So she nodded. Anderson was considerate of her pregnancy and cared about her health. His thoughtfulness made her very gratified. She was rather tired indeed.
Anderson ran off merrily towards the activities center bathroom.
Luther helped Joyce sit down on a bench beside the amusement park to rest.
The sun shone brightly, it was getting hotter, summer would arrive soon.
Joyce took off her jacket and handed it to Luther.
Luther put his arm around her shoulders and pulled her into his embrace. The sunshine was splendid, the trees lush, birds chirping all around, children's laughter and chatter everywhere, extremely lively. These peaceful, beautiful days really felt wonderful.
As they were sitting, suddenly Aaron and Darrin rushed over hurriedly.
"Young Master, I finally found you." Darrin said first.
"Boss, you weren't picking up your phones so we had to come look for you." Aaron followed up.
Luther took out his phone, it did have missed calls.
"Couldn't hear it over the noise here."
"Did something happen?" Joyce felt Darrin's expression was off and quickly asked.
"Young Master, after you left, someone delivered a strange letter. Didn't say who to give it to, the security staff happened to receive it and I saw it. I noticed the wax seal on the back had a W pattern. I guessed it must be sent by someone from OGW. So I rushed over immediately." As Darrin spoke he had already taken out the letter from his pocket and handed it to Joyce.
Sure enough, the back had a wax seal, a skull with a W on top.
Luther's brow furrowed tightly, damn OGW, lingering vengefully, stirring up trouble again.
"Athena's been controlled by Christian already, seems OGW still won't give up." He cursed under his breath.
"A centipede dies but never stiffens. What more Cloud who's still around." Joyce swiftly opened the letter. She vaguely felt this must be related to Reuben's phone call.
