Feeling excited, Nicoleâs heart beat faster as she ran toward that person, hoping he was the one she was waiting for all this time.
The children also ran toward that figure joyfully and yelled, âDaddy!â
Nicole shouted, âEvan!â
The silhouette of that person flinched when they called out to him.
Juan and Kyle ran to his front.
After they lifted their heads to look at his face, Juan was taken aback while Kyle had a shocked expression.
He doesnât even look like Daddy. Daddy is so handsome with his top-tier features.
Panting heavily, Maya ran to him and looked at his face. Her joyous expression immediately vanished while her jaw dropped.
Disappointed, Nina yelled, âNo. Heâs not Daddy!â
Noticing their disappointed yet shocked expression, Nicole walked to his front and looked at his face. Reality dawned upon her and put out the flames of hope flickering in her eyes instantly.
Itâs not him.
It really isnât himâ¦
âHis face is so hideous, but he has such a nice body and demeanor. Tsk! Tsk! What a waste.â
âLook at his face. Did he get burnt? Those scars looked terrible! Ugh! So ugly!â
âIndeed. Why is he even here? Stay in your house, you freak!â
âUgly freak! Are you here to scare people? Mind you, weâre in a high-class shopping mall. And this place isnât somewhere you should be.â
The crowd got louder with their discussions. Memories of the past flashed through Ninaâs mind as she recalled the words her Daddy said when they went to Uncle Davinâs mall and met an ugly woman who was bullied by others.
He said, Itâs not her fault to be born ugly. Sheâs not wrong to come to this place too. Those bullies who judge people by their looks and pointed fingers at her were the ones at fault.
Remembering her Daddyâs words, she gripped her fists tightly and took a step forward, protecting the ugly man from the publicâs gazes. âShut up! All of you! What rights do you have to scold him? Itâs not his fault for being ugly!â
Maya stood beside Nina and said, âThatâs right. Daddy told us itâs wrong to judge someone based on their looks.â
Looking at the two little girls protesting in his stead and listening to their words, the ugly manâs eyes lit up.
âWhere do you brats come from? You know nothing, so f*ck off!â
âYeah! We say what we want. Heâs ugly, and thatâs a fact. What can you do? Seal our mouth?â
âAn ugly man like him shouldnât come to a high-class mall, affecting the mall image and all. We should throw him out.â
Juan and Kyle exchanged glances after looking at the man and two women acting all high and mighty. With a bottle of mineral water and an iron hook in their hands, they quickly drew up a plan in their minds.
Both of them walked composedly to the trio.
Juan beckoned with his eyes to Kyle and asked, âDid you say that itâs inevitable for ugly people to be an object of ridicule?â
The arrogant man said, âRight. He should be laughed at, looking this ugly. Take a closer look. Isnât his hideous face so ugly that itâs scary?â
Juan retorted, âIf being ugly is the reason to be laughed at, how about someone pissing his pants in public?â
The man asked, âPissing his pants? Who?â
As soon as he finished talking, Juan pointed at his pants.
He lowered his head and saw his pants drenched with water streaming out of the hem of his pants.
âArgh! He⦠He pissed his pants! So gross!â
âHoly sh*t! He actually pissed his pants in public. How shameless!â
The man was confused. He didnât piss his pants, but no matter how hard he tried to deny it, everyone believed what they saw.
His pants were drenched, and that was the proof people needed.
âItâs not him. Thereâs no way heâll piss his pants. I thinkâ¦â The woman who was defending the man was the one who made fun of the ugly man the most.
Before she could finish her sentence, the zip of her pants loosened and dropped to the ground while her pants slid off from her waist.
âAh!â The woman shouted embarrassingly and immediately dragged her pants up.
