Chapter: 734
Everyone around them, including William Jones, was dumbfounded. On one hand, they were amazed by the calmness and courage of Adie, a mere four-year-old kid. On the other hand, they were also astonished by the rare warmth and tender side shown by Mr. Q, who was generally feared by everyone.

So you really could not judge a book by its cover after all! Just as still water could hide unfathomable depths below its surface, their one meeting with the man himself completely eradicated the image of Mr. Q they had in mind after hearing countless rumors about him!

William nursed the sore spot where he got kicked as he was clouded in a dilemma. Was this his golden chance to save his own skin, or should he beg for Mr. Q�s mercy so he would let the kid go?

Judging from what he saw, the tall and handsome man seemed to exude an excellent temperament. He looked much more sensible than the one- eyed man, so William thought he might not be a senseless psychopath who would not listen to any reasoning after all.

But before he could open his mouth, it was Adie who walked up to him and told him, �You�ve successfully brought me to Carmine Pawn Shop. You�ve completed your task, so you can go back and tell Mommy that I�m fine now. Tell her that I�ve made a new friend and I won�t be seeing her for a while.�

�Ki-Kid!� William was completely caught offguard. Bewildered, he replied, �Do you have any idea what you�re talking about?! This is an extremely dangerous place and this friend of yours is not a good person! We should instead be begging him so he�d let go of you, that way you�d be able to go home and meet up with your mother soon, so she won�t get worried about you!�

�Don�t worry,� Adie assured him. �This isn�t the first time I went missing. Mommy�s pretty strong and calm about it now. Just tell her that I�ll surely go home once I�m done playing with my new friend, okay? Bye bye!�

Adie waved William goodbye and walked away, but returned again after a few steps to tell him, �By the way, you shouldn�t be friends with Briar Desrosiers anymore. She�s a really naughty person, and there�s no hope of her ever turning nice. You�re pretty naughty too, but there�s still hope for you if you�d improve yourself. Anyway, thanks for being my driver and bringing me here today! Goodbye!�

The little man then went over to Mr. Q, raised his chin to look up at him and bluntly told him, �It�s done. You can take me away now.�

The off-road vehicle was very tall, but Adie stretched out his sprightly arms and legs to climb up like a heart-achingly adorable little monkey.

No one had ever dared to speak that way to Mr. Q except for those with death wishes, yet Adie seemed to have acquired a special immunity against this man�s frightening aura. Not only was he completely unafraid of him, but he was also even giving Mr. Q orders!

But what was even more puzzling was Mr. Q�s reaction. Not once did he show a sign of anger or impatience with this boy. Not only that, he even tenderly and thoughtfully put on Adie�s seatbelt, which was an incredible sight to behold! He could not be any more gentle and kind to the boy if he had been his biological father!

�Sit tight,� the man reminded Adie in a deep voice as the boy sat in the passenger seat next to him.

Adie leaned back against the seat lackadaisically, his round, chubby face completely untroubled and at ease as he told the man, �Don�t bother trying to drive so fast, because no matter how fast you are, you�ll never beat Mommy�s speed. You guys are nothing but losers compared to her!�

The car soon arrived at the infamous Carmine Pawnshop. The place was rumored to be a treasure house, filled with displays of rare treasures, curious cultural antiques, exotic animals, and other peculiar paraphernalia from all over the world.

Nevertheless, the actual pawnshop did not occupy a large area at all. In fact, it was just a simple building. It did not even have that many guards surrounding it, so it looked no different from the other buildings in the area.

The car drove into the pawnshop�s private garage. Mr. Q parked the car and turned to Adie, and asked him in a leisurely tone, �Are you sure you want to go inside? You do know that anyone who�s stepped into Carmine Pawnshop gives up the control of their own fate, don�t you?�

�I�m just a kid,� Adie replied chirpily, blinking his big bright eyes innocently, �So anything I say doesn�t count. As for you being in control of my fate, you�ll have to ask for Mommy�s permission before you can do that.�

Adie had always been an expert in using his status as a child to his own advantage. He was clearly much smarter than many adults!
