Chapter 100: Chapter 100
At night, when Julian Hawthorne and Paige Sterling were both asleep, Sonny Chambers planned to sneak away quietly.
But the room was like a fortress; he couldn’t even open the door.
He fiddled around all night and suddenly discovered there was a robot in the room, staring at him with glowing blue eyes.
Sonny Chambers, "..." startled out of his wits in the middle of the night.
The next morning, before Paige and Julian were awake, Sonny Chambers was already roused by the robot.
The robot was even more brutal than Paige and Julian, tormenting him in various ways until finally overseeing his running.
If he tried to sneak away, it would immediately drag him back.
After the run, Sonny Chambers was exhausted, with dark circles under his eyes, and had no appetite for breakfast.
"Paige, I had a dream last night," he said to Paige.
Paige glanced at him, "Oh? What was your dream?"
Sonny Chambers, "I dreamt I was reading a room full of books and memorized them all backwards and forwards."
"Not bad, it shows your subconscious has the aspiration to be well-read."
Sonny Chambers lay on the table, "But I died of exhaustion before I was even thirteen, a premature death! What’s the point of reading so many books?"
Seeing Paige’s lack of reaction, Sonny Chambers began to act dizzy, a drama queen reincarnate.
"No, I miss my mother who raised me. Whenever I think of her, I get dizzy. Paige, quickly take me home to see my mom!"
Paige asked the robot to get a needle.
Sonny Chambers, "Why do you need a needle?"
Paige, "TV says a little poke cures everything. Don’t be scared, I’ll fix you up in no time."
Sonny Chambers shook violently, reviving on the spot, "No need, I’m already better! I’m going to school!"
Paige told Sonny Chambers to go to school himself, with no intention of taking him.
Sonny Chambers was eager to escape, pondering a getaway to find his mother on the way.
If his mom learned how Paige treated him, she’d surely be heartbroken.
But just as he had this thought, his phone watch rang with Paige’s voice.
"Be good and go to school, respect your teachers, get along with your classmates, don’t even think about running away, you hear? I’ve installed a tracker chip on you. If you dare run, I’ll detonate the chip and you’ll be blown to bits."
That’s how you scare these reckless kids into submission.
Sonny Chambers, "..."
Paige was actually driving behind him, seeing him so scared that he walked cautiously, afraid of triggering the chip explosion, feeling a bit amused.
And the kindergarten teacher was quite surprised to see Sonny Chambers come to school alone.
"Where are your family? Didn’t they bring you?"
Sonny Chambers felt bitter inside but showed off outwardly, "I’m old enough, not three years old, don’t need adults to bring me. I’ll be going to and from school alone from now on."
Look at you, being all boastful.
During class, Sonny Chambers’ crush from the kindergarten leaned over, "Sonny Chambers, why aren’t you happy today? Didn’t you eat enough?"
Sonny Chambers had no thoughts of his crush anymore, "It’s none of your business. Do you think I can tell you my sister and brother-in-law are threatening to kill me?"
A few days ago, he was their darling; now he’s all nasty playing the bad boyfriend.
The little girl got so angry her eyes welled up.
Other kids gathered around, "Wow, you’re so pitiful. Are your sister and brother-in-law really that scary?"
"Being under the care of siblings, this poor child lives such a pitiful life."
Sonny Chambers couldn’t stand the sympathetic gazes.
He needed no sympathy!
"What do you know? I’m destined to do great things, that’s why fate sent these villains to train me. You wouldn’t understand, you mediocre folks! Humph!"
The other kids, "..."
In the afternoon, Sonny Chambers returned to Silverstream Bay by himself, the teacher was particularly worried since no parents picked him up.
But Paige called, so the teacher had to let Sonny Chambers go home alone.
Back at home, Paige and Julian were not yet back, but did you think Sonny Chambers could relax like that?
The robot monitoring him was even more terrifying than Paige.
So Sonny Chambers went through his chores for Paige under great stress.
Finally done, he had twenty minutes of rest and snuck into Paige’s lab to fool around.
In the lab, he found a yellow paste-like substance, put some in his mouth thinking it was sweet and tasty, but the robot said, "It’s for applying on your head."
Sonny Chambers, "..."
Making head lotion so sweet? What’s the idea?
"You think I don’t know? I did it on purpose! Humph!"
As he said this, Sonny Chambers rubbed some on his head and found it had quite a good setting effect.
So he took a box from the lab, deciding to apply it every morning to make the kindergarten kids envy him to death!
Just then, there was a sudden knock on the door.
Sonny Chambers ran over, checked to see who was outside, and found someone he didn’t know.
Outside, Simon Hawthorne was baffled, "Who are you?"
Sonny Chambers, "I’m the kid of this house!"
Simon Hawthorne, "I’m the younger brother of the adults of this house."
Sonny Chambers counted the relationships on his fingers, "You’re that Hawthorne Devil’s brother!?"
He said, "Let me see your ID card."
This kid was actually quite cautious, huh?
Simon Hawthorne showed his ID in front of the camera.
Sonny Chambers finally opened the door, "I’m The Demon Sterling’s younger brother."
He assumed Simon Hawthorne might be as pitiful as he was, "Come in."
Once inside, Sonny Chambers behaved like a little adult, even had the robot pour water for Simon.
Simon eyed the robot greedily.
He’d bought one of Penson’s robots, but it paled in comparison to this one.
Paige’s robot was more advanced than those sold by Penson because she used the best materials on it.
Sonny Chambers seemed very pleased with Simon Hawthorne’s wide-eyed look, "My sister made it casually, don’t be too envious." Tʜe sourcᴇ of thɪs content ɪs 𝔫𝔬𝔳𝔢𝔩·𝔣𝔦𝔯𝔢·𝔫𝔢𝔱
Simon Hawthorne, "..."
He sat down on the sofa, but didn’t know what he sat on. He picked it up and asked Sonny Chambers, "Kid, what’s this?"
Sonny Chambers, "Hair gel, to celebrate our first meeting, it’s your gift."
Simon Hawthorne, "..."
This kid was quite socially adept.
Thinking it over, he accepted it.
After waiting awhile without Paige or Julian returning, Simon Hawthorne left.
Back at The Hawthorne Family’s old house, Simon saw the old man sitting in the living room, seemingly waiting for him, making Simon gulp nervously.
He hadn’t done anything recently, right?
