Chapter 376 Time to Leave (2/2)

It's not as if ignoring the matter would make it go away and he knew he had to buck up.

When he had asked Omar whether it was too late, whether he had already lost Sophia, Omar had given him such a gentle, caring smile that Ali almost cried in relief.

He wasn't.

So he spent days praying, thinking, contemplating.

Now, he was much more relaxed and much more focused.

He felt he could face the trials God had set for him, but he would have to constantly keep at it. Keep up the positive energy. Keep up the Faith.

Just then, the announcement about their plane was ready for boarding came over the intercom. Fresh new tears formed in Delilah's eyes.

Her babies were leaving!!

Kyle, upon seeing this, gave a soft smile and walked over to Delilah.

”Come on, Mum,” he said gently as he hugged her tight, ”I'll send a message every morning and every night, okay? I'll call often.”

Delilah nodded, sniffing, ”You'd better. Or else I won't be able to sleep.”

Patrick watched all of this stoically.

His son.

A sense of pride swelled up within him but he didn't show it.

”Remember, you are the Smith Heir,” Patrick said gruffly, looking at Kyle sternly, ”You have to make sure your behaviour does not tarnish the Smith name.”

Here we go again, thought Kyle in exasperation.

Why on Earth does this man find it a need to constantly drill into him his responsibilities? As he listened on to Patrick's normal drivel about 'the Smith Name' and the 'Smith Reputation', he used up all his training not to let his true emotions show on his face.Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click visiting.

He had promised Kay, after all.

But the man could go on and on.

If Kyle had been a problematic child or one that did bring shame to the 'Smith Name', then Kyle could understand this mini-lecture. Hadn't he always proven himself? That he was capable and would not do anything to embarrass the family name?

Though granted. The movie may be an eyesore to some of the older generations. After all, an 'entertainer' could hardly measure up to the 'respectable' job of a businessman.

Kyle found that ludicrous, of course.

The only reason why the Smith Family didn't create such a fuss and ruckus was because the movie was 'high class'. Its predecessor was all box office hits and the actors were all the top. Thus, it was 'befitting' the Smith Name.

Such hypocrisy and sense of elitism. Kyle couldn't be bothered with all of that.

As Patrick ended his spiel, he nodded with satisfaction about how Kyle was actually listening this time.
