Chapter 149: Don ‘t Want Such a Father
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Five years ago, the Burton family was not among the big families in Buffalo. At that time, the Burton family was still running a business in the coastal area. After the world-shaking gambling and drug-related corporation was eradicated, Michael was among the sacrifices, and it was a first-class merit.
First-class merits were rare in peaceful times. Michael Burton had no descendants or immediate relatives, so the honor brought by his merits fell on his cousin, David Burton. David relied on Michael’s merits and the support of policies to soar into the sky and gain a foothold in the capital. It was also because of Michael’s merits that the Burton family was arrogant. The only people they could bend down to curry favor with were people related to politics. The goal of the entire family was to enter politics. Unfortunately, none of the children below had passed the public examination in the past few years.
Putting aside the trivial matters of the Burton family, George came to the Burton family because Amelia had unintentionally mentioned to him yesterday that her father’s surname was Burton. When she mentioned her father, her eyes were filled with anticipation. How could George bear to disappoint her? Even if the Burton family looked down on others, he was willing to come for Amelia.
Amelia shook her head. “Eldest Uncle, let’s go home.” If her father was like this, she would rather not. She had her grandparents now. It was already good enough for her to have eight uncles, brothers, and sisters!
George was slightly stunned. “Mia doesn’t want to look for Daddy anymore?
Amelia shook her head. “I don’t want such a father.”
George’s lips curled up. As expected of a child of the Walton family. George did not care about Old Master Glen’s entrustment. He would help if he could. If he could not, it was fine. He only wanted Amelia to be well. Why would he care so much about others?
George smiled and patted Amelia’s head in a good mood. “Mia, Eldest Uncle will take you to the amusement park to play. Do you want to go?
Amelia’s eyes lit up. “Go! Of course!” After saying that, she couldn’t wait to raise her hand. “Let’s bring my brothers and sisters!” Then, she added,
“Grandpa Turtle and Seven are going too!” In Amelia’s eyes, the amusement
park was a very fun place. Of course, she had to share the fun places with her friends!
After the Burton family, Old Master Burton and Old Madam Burton finished eating, they elegantly wiped their mouths and asked the butler, “Are the Walton family still outside?” If they were still waiting, they did not mind meeting them on account of their sincerity.
The butler said, “They went back.”
Old Madam Burton snorted. “They want to acknowledge us as family, yet don’t even have the patience to wait.” Fortunately, they didn’t soften their hearts to see the Walton family. Amelia, that little jinx, must stay away from them and never bother them
Old Master Burton was talking to his eldest son. “Have you contacted the person that the leader mentioned? I heard that that big shot’s surname is also Burton, and he’s a war god who has returned from the border war zone. Hurry up and think of a way to rope him in.”
The eldest son of the Burton family said awkwardly, “Dad, that person is not easy to meet. And for some reason, I feel that that person has something against our Burton family.”
Old Master Burton frowned. “Nonsense. We’ve never met before. How can he have any objections? Besides, everyone’s surname is Burton. If there’s any misunderstanding, we can just find a chance to meet and have a meal.”
The eldest son of the Burton family said, “Dad, he is really difficult to contact. That big shot is not only a war god who came back from the border war zone, but also the head of a hidden family…”
Old Master Burton glared at him. “What hidden family? You’ve read too many novels! Every time I ask you to do something, you make excuses. You can’t do anything!’
The eldest son of the Burton family:
The Burton family was in a fight because of the big shot. They were all nervous and tried to find the big shot through all kinds of connections. Little did they know that they had already missed him.
Happy Valley was the largest amusement park in the city. This was a children’s paradise. The screams from roller coasters and staff in character suits could be seen everywhere. The long slide was four to five stories tall. It slid down from the top, stimulating one’s heart to the point of wanting to jump out.
Elmer frowned. Where there were many people, the Yang energy would be strong. It was not suitable for ghosts. He glanced at George and William. The father and son were guarding Amelia like bodyguards. They probably did not need him. He said to Amelia, “Mia, I’ll find a place to sleep.”
Amelia was about to nod when Emma excitedly pulled her hand and ran forward. She had long forgotten about the little awkwardness in the morning. “Let’s go, Mia.. Let’s go and play the slide!”
