Back at the foot of the mountain, Quentin carried the two children into the car. Zaid and the others noticed Quentin’s bad mood and didn’t dare to speak.
The car drove on. Gradually, they arrived in the city.
Quentin said to Zaid, “Go to the bathhouse, have my two children cleaned up, and ask someone to prepare some new clothes.”
“Yes!”
Zaid, who was acting as the driver, nodded repeatedly.
“Daddy, I want to see Mommy-” Janessa blinked her big eyes and said coquettishly.
“Well, Janessa, be good, go wash up first. It’s late today, I will take you to see Mommy tomorrow, okay?”
“Okay…”
Janessa was a bit down.
Thinking of Charlotte, Quentin also felt guilty. It must be becaHe should have trusted her.
But… she must be under tremendous pressure all by herself!
The car stopped not far from the bathhouse, Quentin got out of the car and walked towards the bathhouse gate with the two children in his arms.
“Hello, we’re here to take a bath.” Quentin glanced at the manager standing at the gate and said, “Get three tickets ready for me.”
The middle-aged woman, who was the manager, frowned when she saw Quentin approaching with two children.
“Get out! I don’t entertain beggars here, hurry up and leave! What’s that smell, so pungent, smells like shit!”
Quentin’s eyes turned cold. “Who are you calling a beggar?”
The middle-aged woman made a disgusted look. “I’m talking about you! A damn poor guy, bringing two little beggars, stinking up the place, get out…”
Upon hearing this, Janessa and Theo both lowered their heads, not daring to speak.
Quentin’s tone was icy as he questioned, “Who gave you the right to stop us from entering?”
“Me!” The middle-aged woman shouted, “Because I’m in charge here!”
“Such arrogance!” Quentin sneered, “You really don’t have that right. Today, I’m going in.”
The sound of hurried footsteps came, and Chad walked up to Quentin, panting, and stood behind him, respectfully reporting, “General Quincy, all the guards are in place, just waiting to clear the bathhouse.”
The middle-aged woman shouted, “Who are you? Guards, clearing out, who do you think you are! It’s ridiculous…”
Her gaze fell on Chad at this moment, and all her words stopped abruptly, her eyes widening!
This tall man in military uniform, the stars on his shoulders shining…
A general!
This man, is actually a general!
“Gasp…”
She took a deep breath, stepping back a few steps.
“General?”
She looked around and found that the surrounding area was already silently filled with one soldier after another.
Three steps, one post!
Standing tall like spears!
With a solemn atmosphere.
Chad frowned. “What are you still standing there for? Can’t you see that General Quincy and his children want to go in? Hurry up and take them in.”
The middle-aged woman was startled, looking at the man who was holding two children like beggars, being called “General”?
She realized she had encountered someone important!
Quentin’s tone was indifferent, “Can I go in now?”
The middle-aged woman’s heart was pounding, and she bowed her head very low. “Sir, please, it was my mistake not recognizing you… I’ll clear the place immediately!”
…
Quentin took the two children inside, let them take a bath, and had Eileen bring in the newly bought clothes.
Quentin smiled gently, “I will take you home first, you guys have a good sleep tonight, don’t think too much, okay?”
Janessa looked up, with a hint of longing in her eyes, “Daddy, I miss Mommy… Can we go find Mommy tomorrow?”
Quentin nodded, “Okay! I will take you to find Mommy tomorrow!”
