Chapter 290: Arren’s Adventures (4)
Arren thought at one point that it was better to leave this place as soon as possible, lest they be implicated more than necessary. However, after hearing her reason, he realized as well that instead of finding anyone and wandering aimlessly on the street, he could just seek her help on this.
After all, someone who could help him was already in front of him; why would Arren find another? There was still urgency within him, and as much as possible, he wanted to hurry up.
Arren wanted to escape this place, and even more so, he wanted to meet Spade. After the memories had returned to him, he didn’t even have enough time to process them before he was forced to set them aside for the time being.
He then contemplated whether to reveal his identity, but Auntie Mildred had beat him to it.
"Of course, wait here; I’ll take my phone." She stood up and entered the house, leaving Arren confused, even though he was technically the one who borrowed her phone.
Arren’s eyes focused on the door that the woman had just entered, and a realization again dawned on him. Auntie Mildred had already recognized him.
It was possible that she only realized Arren’s identity, as he was sure that there wasn’t any familiarity in her eyes when they met earlier in the dumpster. It made sense, as Arren’s state wasn’t really good, and now that he was already clean, his appearance and temperament would be emphasized even more.
As for acting oblivious as though she had not noticed, Arren knew that it was a consideration, not only for him but also for her, especially the kids with her.
If a well-known noble and the emperor’s lover at that, were reduced to that state, no one would be convinced that nothing dangerous was behind it. So, Arren began to bite the bullet; he opened the matter himself.
