Chapter 1336 Maya The Pig

Zayden looked back. The moment he saw Davin, his eyes lit up like bright stars in the night. In his adorable high-pitched voice, he called, “Daddy!” Then, he opened his arms, eager to jump into his father’s embrace.

“Zayden, it’s been a few days since I last saw you. I miss you so much. How about you? Do you miss me?”

Davin tenderly embraced his precious son and observed every inch of his body as though checking if the boy had any injuries.

Zayden giggled as he reached out to pinch Davin’s neck. “Daddy, I don’t miss you. Uncle Evan’s place is great. I get to play with so many people and have lots of delicious food!”

Hearing his reply, Davin knitted his brows and pointed at the boy’s chest. “You little brat. Don’t you have any conscience? How can you not miss your dad?”

“Daddy, it’s so fun here. I-I don’t have any time to think about you.” Zayden pouted as he replied honestly. Indeed, children spoke whatever came to their minds.

“Is it that fun here? If that’s the case, you don’t need to follow me back. Stay at Imperial Garden instead.” Davin placed Zayden on the floor as he spoke.

The boy fidgeted with his fingers before taking out the edited pictures given by Joy. He passed it to Davin and proclaimed firmly, “Daddy, I want to be Superman! I’m not eating anymore.”

“What Superman? Why aren’t you eating anymore?”

Davin skimmed through all the pictures and turned toward Maya. “Did you make these?”

Maya denied, “Uncle Davin, it’s not me. It was Joy’s idea. She’s afraid that Zayden wouldn’t be able to restrain himself and would keep eating until he gets too chubby. That was why she intentionally made these pictures to coax him into controlling his diet and taking care of his health.”

Hearing her explanation, Davin scowled and inquired, “Control his diet? You guys intend to make my son eat less?”

“Yes.”

With that, the man shot a worried look at his precious son and understood the reason behind the latter’s words earlier.

“What if you cause my son to starve to nothing but skin and bone?”

“I can become Superman then!” Zayden replied.

“Still, that doesn’t mean you should starve!” Having said that, Davin turned to look at Joy, who was swiveling her eyes around. “Is this your idea? I highly suspect that you’re intentionally deceiving my son into starving himself so that you can cut the expenses on food in Imperial Garden!”

Wide-eyed, Joy refuted, “Uncle Davin, I’m doing this for Zayden’s sake. Don’t you always complain that you don’t want Zayden to overeat till he became a fat pig like Maya when she was younger?”

Upon hearing her words, Maya felt offended. With her arms crossed before her chest, she looked at Davin and demanded, “Uncle Davin, do you always go around telling the kids that I constantly pigged out when I was young? If that’s the case, you’ve ruined my image in their hearts gravely. Thus, I demand compensation for my tarnished reputation.”

Davin scrutinized Maya before asserting, “On what grounds are you claiming compensation from me? What I said was irrefutable. I’m a man that values only the truth.”

Maya pursed her lips. “Zayden, come here. I’m also a lady that values only the truth. Therefore, I’ll tell you about your dad’s glorious past. Do you know why your mom doesn’t allow you to fight? That’s because your dad, he—”

Davin immediately interrupted, “Maya! Some things are best kept from children. It won’t do them any good. Think about their feelings.”

“You refuse to let me tell them because you want to protect your honorable image in their eyes. Right? Fine. Then we should help each other out. When you tell them about my childhood next time, you have to keep my image in mind.”

Davin contemplated for a moment before agreeing, “Fine, fine, fine. Don’t worry. I will keep that in mind. We should help each other out.”
