Chapter 528: Departure (2/2)
Kai also thanked her for her continuous support by helping her with some additional support on the battlefield.
After a long stay, Kai finally returned to the airport together with Sofia.
He walked with a smile on his face and muttered, ”It's been six months.”
”Haha, I don't have much memory for half of it though.” Sofia chuckled, teasing him.
”I am sorry, but at least you got strength. Nothing happened during that time either.” Kai shrugged.
”I was joking. No need to take it to your heart.”
Kai smiled and walked together before finding a group of people waiting for him.
”Big Brother Kai!”
All the kids from the orphanage quickly jumped to him, trying to hug him. Although it was a short period of time, most of the kids had begun to idolize Kai. Not only his strength but his kindness had melted their hearts after all.
Kai greeted the kids with a warm smile, hugging them one by one.
After that, Marsha and her butler came to him.
”Thank you for the help this whole time. The Union has become clear right now. Although it's impossible to deal with all the corruption inside, we are happy to eliminate the potential threat to humanity.” She smiled.
”It was my problem to begin with.” Kai shrugged. ”I'm glad that I don't need to worry about United Asia and this base in the future.”
”Haha. If you need my help, just call me. I will try to do it for you… Of course, with some compensation.” She chuckled.
”You never forgot that last part…” Kai laughed and shook her hands.
After that, he bid goodbye to Rena and Leisa. Leisa was thankful for the opportunity to settle a few things with Evan, while Rena thanked Kai for all the things he had done for the base.
Arnaud and Roselyn also saw him off without many words because they had been saying their thanks since they accompanied him most of the time.
Still, there was one problem. Jules truly came.
”Please take care of my daughter.” Bastien shook his hand.
”Yes, I will do my best.”
”My daughter must have been annoying you at the start, so I apologize for her behavior back then.”
”It's a thing in the past. People can grow.” Kai chuckled.
”Mother!” Sofia pouted and looked away before seeing Jules' expression. ”I wonder what will happen when Grandfather meets with Sir Nathan and Sir Tarou…”
”Don't… Don't give him the idea.” Kai quickly stopped her helplessly before knowing that Jules would certainly do that from his expression alone. ”Look! His expression tells you that it's a good idea. It's going to be a mess.”
”Hahaha.” All of them laughed.
Last but not least, Kai met Felice alone. ”Felice, will you be okay alone?”
”Of course. I am going to prove to you that I am worthy of being your student.” Felice pumped her chest proudly. ”I have several tasks to do, so you will be surprised after another six months.”
”I am looking forward to it.” Kai patted her head for a while before finally leaving together with Sofia.
While waving their hands, the pair finally entered the gate and departed.
