Mordecai’s injuries looked scary, but in reality they were all just superficial wounds.
After applying medicine, some places quickly scabbed over.
Even so, Alexis was still a bit uneasy, “Young Master Momo, until the wounds are completely healed, you mustn’t let the wounds get wet, or else if they leave scars, your daddy will beat me to death.”
“Got it!” Mordecai nodded like garlic, “Uncle Valle you’ve said it no less than ten times, my ears are already calloused.”
“I’m not worried about it.” Alexis explained.
Mordecai gave him an idea, “Then remember to visit me tomorrow morning and bring me a bottle of scar remover so I’m prepared.”
Right-oh!
Alexis was reminded by this and snapped her head, “Why didn’t I think of that, I’ll go then and come back to see you in the morning.”
After easily sending Alexis away, Mordecai locked the door to his room and pulled out his cell phone to make a call.
He called Anna.
Alexis’ words had nudged him that the only person in the house who could make Daddy change his mind was the doctor’s aunt.
If he could just get doctor aunty to speak for him, then surely daddy would say yes.
Mordecai even thought of how to pamper Anna.
But what he didn’t expect was that Anna’s phone was out of service!
He hurriedly helped Anna to pay the phone bill, and then called again, the cold mechanical tone changed to the other side of the temporary can not be connected.
Mordecai ran downstairs and tried to use the maid’s phone to call Anna to see if his cell phone number had been blacked out.
But the maid instantly recognized the phone number, “Young Master Momo, why are you still using this number to call Mrs. Navarro?”
“Which one do I use if not this one?” Mordecai asked with a puzzled look on his face.
The maid replied, “You don’t know it yet, right, she has changed her phone number, as for what exactly is the new number that she changed, we don’t even know, if you want to contact her, why don’t you go to your daddy?”
“Then it’s better to forget it …” Mordecai depressed back to the children’s room.
If he went to ask his daddy for his phone number, he would definitely be hounded for the reason.
By then there would really be no way to leave the country.
No, I have to think of something else!
That night, Mordecai tossed and turned, not sleeping well at all.
Soon it was the next morning.
Alexis was afraid that Mordecai would leave a scar, so she sent the scar removing cream over early in the morning, and stared at Mordecai carefully applying it.
Mordecai obediently did as she was told, and then looked up at Alexis, “Uncle Valle, can you take me back to my grandma’s house?”
“Huh?” Alexis was a bit embarrassed, “But I’m also responsible for driving for your daddy, so I’m afraid I can’t get away, why don’t I have one of the other drivers in the house give you a ride?”
“They will be busy with the cleaning today, it will be one more job if they drive me, or you can call a car for me, I can go there by myself in the car.” Mordecai said kindly.
As a fellow laborer, Alexis understood too well the pain of being added extra work.
Seeing that Mordecai was so understanding and the solution given was not a problem, he no longer hesitated and took Mordecai out to hail a cab.
The money was given by him, and he also specifically instructed the driver, “Please make sure you get to your destination, I’ve memorized your license plate number, if there’s any problem, you won’t be able to get away with it.”
“Don’t worry,” the driver patted his chest and assured, “Sir you gave me triple the fare, just for that money alone, I have to get the person to his destination safely and smoothly!”
“Yeah Uncle Valle, I’ll call you when I get to the door of THE Navarro Residence.” Mordecai said good-naturedly, but a wry look crossed the corner of his eyes.
