Chapter 415 - 415: Lets Change Our Way (1/2)

Charles and Brother Yu decided to leave Elle and Phantom. They wanted them to have privacy while talking with each other. They were aware that the father and daughter duo had a lot of catching up to do.

After what it seemed like ages, Phantom finally released Elle from that tight hug. He even wiped her tears using his bare hands. Elle seldom cries in front of him. The same with Phantom, Elle didn't see her Master cry like this before.

”I missed you so much, Master. I'm sorry I returned very late.” Elle apologized to him.

Phantom shook his head. ”It's better to be late than not coming back to us. I thought I won't ever see you again. I am glad and thankful… you are alive. I thought I lost you forever. Losing your child is the most painful thing that could happen to a parent like me. I should have died on your behalf, that's what I am thinking all these years.”

”No, Master. No one should die. I couldn't bear it. I already lost my parents 18 years ago. I can't afford to lose you too.”

Both Elle and Phantom were becoming emotional and sentimental.

”I don't want to have another regret. So I will be shameless now for asking you this favor. Elle... Can you call me, father? Instead of Master?” Phantom asked her expectantly.

Elle gave him a faint smile before nodding at him.

”Father… I'd like to call you that. Hmm… Do you want me to call you Dad and Papa too?” Elle said with her teasing smile.

Phantom burst out laughing while his face was blushing. Even his ears were burning red. He liked it. He liked the way Elle called him 'father'. It was pleasing to his ears. His expression softened as he stared at Elle tenderly. His foster daughter came back. His heart was singing in joy and delight.

He couldn't help himself from embracing Elle once again. ”Oh, my dear daughter, my dear Elle. I've missed you so much.”

Elle giggled in his chest. She felt good hearing Master Phantom calling her 'daughter'. She didn't expect that simple things like this could warm her heart. She felt the love of a father she always longed for. She was grateful despite every bad thing that happened to her.

Eighteen years ago, she lost everything. But now, she gained more. She had Erick, the love of her life. She had Charles, Phantom, Dr. Clara, Uncle Antoine, and Phantom's henchmen as her family. Erick's parents were treating her as their own daughter. She found out that Lee Family and Falcon Family were close friends.

She also met new friends- Bryan and members of Team Alpha including Sandy and Josh. Black Shadow also added to her list of friends while James was her very special friend.

”Father…” Elle softly mumbled.

”Yes, dear?”

”Let's change our way of getting our revenge.” Elle requested Phantom.

Unlike before, Elle's heart was full of hatred and anger that she was willing to wreak havoc and kill everyone who was responsible for her misery. There was no room for mercy in her vocabulary, only viciousness and ruthlessness could be found in her.
