Heiress Unmasked: Shaking the World With Geomancy novel Chapter 2040

The moment the kid randomly latched onto him and called him "Daddy", Kai's first thought was: "Great, I'm gonna be the first to get cancelled, and we haven't even made it past Episode 1!"

However, he quickly regained his composure. He lifted his foot, intending to shake the child off. "The heck? Who are you? I'm not your dad!"

He was just a baby dragon that had evolved two years ago—a proper juvenile demon! Since when did he have a child?

Relentlessly, the kid clung onto Kai's leg and gripped harder when he tried to shake him off. He wore a pair of pitiful puppy eyes and said, "Daddy. You're my daddy."

Ignoring the bundle of cuteness that was before him, Kai unhesitatingly reached out and lifted him up.

His demeanor was aggressive as he warned, "Look at me clearly! I'm too young and innocent to be your dad! We're all minors, so please, look for a more convincing candidate if you wish to scam someone!"

The kid looked at him with utter innocence, as if he was processing the logic of his words. Then, after some pondering, he carefully asked, "Can you be my brother, then?"

At last, a more age-appropriate title.

However, Kai quickly snapped back to his senses. "Hey, kid. You can't just go around calling strangers your dad or brother. Go back to your family now!"

He prepared to move the boy to the side, but scoffed in disbelief when the latter continued clinging onto him. "You're not letting go, are ya? Just what do you want?"

Perhaps frightened by Kai's anger, the boy shivered slightly and looked hesitant. He finally turned his head and looked toward a spot not far away.

Kai followed the boy's gaze and saw that the boy was looking at the enrollment consultation counter set up by Hector's team.

Kai was confused, but before he could ask, the boy muttered in a frustrated tone, "I want to sign up, but they said they need a parent to register me."

Hence, he walked around looking for his "parent".

"You should've gone to your dad, then!"
