Chapter 2421
The skills Kyson had acquired in the Secret Investigation Department were undeniable-efficient, ruthless, and uniquely effective.
But his wrong choices had derailed what could have been a brilliant career.
Sonny shook off his reverie with a sigh and turned his attention back to the task at hand, coordinating the aftermath of David’s arrest.
Outside the bar, Kyson changed into his men’s clothes in the back of the car.
The familiar attire brought a sense of comfort and normalcy.
As he settled in, his phone buzzed with an incoming text message.
He glanced at the screen and saw it was from Dulcie.
The message was brief: “It’s already eight o’clock.
Will you come back for dinner? Ryder and Sally are waiting for you.
”
Kyson smiled, a hint of weariness in his expression.
He quickly typed a reply: “Are they the only ones? What about you?”
He sent the text.
Minutes ticked by with no response.
He waited, eyes glued to the screen, feeling an unfamiliar but pleasant sense of anticipation and he found himself hoping more fervently than he’d like to admit.
Finally, the phone buzzed again.
Dulcie’s reply was succinct but heartfelt.
“I’m waiting for you, too.
”
Her concise words warmed him, and he smiled, genuinely and deeply.
After so many years of solitude, the thought of someone waiting for him at home was a novel, yet comforting feeling.
It was something he never thought he would have, and it felt undeniably good.
Kyson put away his phone and left the message unanswered.
He swiftly smoked a cigarette; then he started the engine and accelerated powerfully.
His luxury car sped under the moonlight, heading straight back to the Shaw family estate.
At the Shaw family home, the cook had already set dinner ready.
Ryder, Sally, and Dulcie were all waiting for him in the dining area.
With his hands casually tucked in his pockets, Kyson sauntered into the dining room.
“I often work late, and I’ve told you all to go ahead without me.
Why wait to eat until I return today?”
Sally, seated and supporting her chin with one hand, responded in a gentle tone, “It was Dulcie’s doing.
Cyrus and I invited her to dine with us, but she insisted on waiting for you.
So, we ended up waiting alongside her.
”
Ryder chimed in, “Kyson, your new wife really is considerate.
She seems to care about you a lot.
It’s rare to find such genuine people these days.
You should really appreciate her.
”
Dulcie shyly cast her eyes downward, feeling slightly embarrassed.Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.
Kyson’s gaze was serene and thoughtful.
“I certainly intend to take good care of my wife.
”
The siblings exchanged a few more words, and then they all started eating once Kyson took his place at the head of the table.
