Trading My Ex for His Uncle (Nyla and Damon) novel Chapter 1112

Mason put on a sweet, obedient expression. "Okay."

After selecting his food, he handed the menu back. "Can I go now?"

The man nodded. "Go ahead."

Mason quickly headed for the door. As he reached it, he glanced back and saw the man still sitting calmly, making no move to follow him.

Suspicion crept into his mind. Why wasn't the man worried about him escaping?

The man raised an eyebrow. "What's wrong? Not going?"

"N-No, I'm going now," Mason stammered.

Fearing the man might change his mind, Mason bolted out the door and raced down the hallway.

The man smiled, then removed his mask and took a sip of his red wine.

Instead of heading to the restroom, Mason made a beeline for the restaurant's exit. If he could just get outside, he could find a phone and call his parents to come and save him.

Although he didn't believe the strange man would hurt him, he was still afraid.

He ran as fast as his little legs could carry him, and soon the entrance came into view.

Ten meters.

Nine meters.

Eight meters.

...

Two meters.

One meter.

Just as he was about to reach the door, two men in black suits appeared out of nowhere, blocking his path.

The man raised an eyebrow, clearly amused by Mason's wariness.

His smile deepened as he said, "Buddy, we've talked on the phone so many times, and now that we've finally met, you still don't recognize me? That's kind of hurtful, you know."

Mason froze. It took a few seconds before his hands slowly lowered. He had covered his face, not daring to look at the man when he came back inside.

Now, as he stared at the man for a few moments, his eyes widened in disbelief.

"Master?" he asked.

The man nodded. "That's me."

In an instant, Mason's expression shifted from shock to joy. He jumped off his chair and ran over, his face lighting up with excitement. "Master, when did you get here? Why didn't you tell me?"

"I called you, didn't I? But you didn't answer. Then, when I tried again, your phone was off. I thought you didn't want to see me," the man said.

"No way! I was kidnapped at the time... Master, thank goodness you came to save me! Thank you! You're the best!" Mason cheered.
