<h4>Chapter 72: Ahh, They Are Bickering Again</h4>

 (Author’s POV)

 "Where is your mum, kid?" Myra’s voice was filled with kindness as she asked the boy.

 The young one didn’t get what she said, making weird face he just, "Mmm~um?"

 "Your mommy, where is she?" Myra again asked showing utmost patience.

 "Ooooo, My mama, My mama is at, she is at home. I have,e here,e here with, my nanny, today" the boy stammered in between. He was speaking in a foreign dialect, with broken pronunciation.

 "And where is your nanny?" Myra asked slowly, giving him time to understand her words.

 "She was just here somewhere, but now she’s not. I am lost, alone" saying this, the boy started crying heavily, bawling his golden eyes out.

 Myra pressed her lips in a thin line,pressing them, scanned her surroundings to see if the child’s nanny was anywhere near or not and then bending a bit, she wiped the boy’s tears stricken chubby cheeks with her fingers and thumb, clearing her throat, she inquired, "What is you name kiddo? I will apany you. Let’s find your nanny, okay?"

 The boy immediately stopped his sobbing, with a slightly runny nose, and in his clumsy way, he said, "My name is, name is Ad~ Adrian, Adrian Taylor."

 "Alright Adrian, we will find your nanny in no time, but first let me tie up your shoce for you, hmmm" Myra spoke tenderly, giving him assurance.

 Adrian didn’t understand her words, but before he could process anything, Myra was already on one knee. This made him jerk involuntary, as he took a step back.

 Myra held his hands gently in an attempt to calm him down and uttered, "Adrian, see I am just tying your shoes for you, tying your shoes." She showed him with hand gestures, conveying through actions.

 Adrian’s shoulders rxed as he understood what Myra was doing. Then Myra muttered to him, "How old are you, Adrian?"

 "I am three and half year old, Miss pretty" Adrian mumbled proudly with a cute smile stapled on his face. Myra smiled too at the little things’ cutepliment.

 "Ohhh, Adrian is such a big-big boy. And what a lovely smile you were hiding, there." Myra was about to take out a napkin from her bag when ric suddenly barged in on their lively conversation, "Where were you all this time? I have been searching for you all over the ce. Can’t you just stay still for a second, always roaming around without a care in this world? Do you like making trouble so much?"

 Adrian thought ric was talking to him, so he hugged Myra’s legs tightly with fear as he bbered, "I don’t~, don’t~, don’t know him. Miss Pretty, I don’t know him." He fumbled with his words, shuddering profusely.

 Myra red at ric’s rude words as she reprimanded him, "You are scaring the kid. Back off will you. And what the heck are you even shooting your dagger like mouth for, huhh? It’s just been five to six minutes at maximum. And what logic is this, how can someone shop while staying still? I don’t have such skills. Is this a virtual shopping center?"

 This made ric even more enraged, Alex too didn’t like how Adrian was glued to Myra’s exposed legs and the way she was firing back because of an unknown and unrted child. He thought, ’Why of all days, she had to wear a dress today and she is also yelling at ric, although she has been trying to avoid speaking to him. Arghh, this is all because of this young brat.’

 ric clenched his teeth and asked, "Who is this brat?"

 "Language, Mr. Everests. He has a name and it is not brat" Myra spoke with restrained anger.

 Rolling his eyeballs in disbelief, ric uttered, "Who are you?" he was peeved at this point.

 "His name is Adrian Taylor. He is lost and his nanny is nowhere to be seen" Myra exined to him.

 ric angled his head, looking at Adrian observing the young wolf from head to toe, "Hey kiddo, wipe off that snort from your nose. You look~" before he could say anything rude again, Myra held his mouth tightly with her hands in an attempt to not let him finish his sentence, "If you can’t say anything nice, just keep your mouth shut." She was agitated by him. He was always so impolite and discourteous towards others. ’Mean freak’

 As Myra’s palms touched his lips, ric eyes fluttered at this abrupt action of hers and all the itchiness and prickly feeling that was rustling in his heart disappeared all at once and suddenly, he was feeling parched and craving, as his Adam’s apple moved involuntarily. 

 Seeing that, he was silent; Myra withdrew her hand and turned toward the kid with a tissue, carefully wiping his nose with it, "Adrian, don’t listen to this big brother. His mother has scolded him today, so he’s in a bad mood since morning."

 ric was speechless, as Alex wasughing at Myra’s words. Indirectly she was taking a dig at him.

 Adrian tried to subdue his chuckling too, "Does this big brother~, also gets, sc-scolded by his mother? But he is, he is soo tall and big and scary?"

 Myra replied in a hushed tone, suppressing a wry smile, "This big brother here is a troublemaker and is always scolded by his parents. Don’t be like him when you grow up, hmmm, Adrian? You have to be kind and polite to others, always."

 "Yes, Miss Pretty, I won’t be a troublemaker" Adrian answered innocently.

 ric mouth frowned at their words, his face turning somewhat ugly.

 Oblivious to ric’s frustrated mood, Myramended Adrian Taylor, "Ohh you are such a good boy, so obedient. You will be one fine man when you grow up." She ruffled his shiny blonde hair.

 And then, without looking at ric, Myra spoke back to him, "I am taking Adrian to the missing person’s department. You can return to Nora’s side and when I am done with it, I will join you guys." Holding Adrian’s hand, Myra started walking to the other side.

 ric raised his right brow, creasing his nose again, "Don’t tell me what to do. I will do what I want." He reached to the other side of Myra, holding her wrist in his in a firm grip, ’Meddlesome human.’

 Myra tried to retrieve it but he silenced her, "Do you know where it is? It’s already crowded enough and my time is precious as gold, so stay put and let’s get this over with." ric started taking big steps.

 Myra waved her head from side to side, she called out, "ric, wait."

 ric nted his head to look back with a pouty expression, "Now what?"

 "You are walking way too fast, Adrian isn’t able to keep up. Let me carry him" she was about to take Adrian in her arms, but ric beat her to it, bending and swooping him with one arm. He didn’t wanted Myra to carry Adrian at all, the thought of it made him as well as his wolf somewhat gloomy.

 Seeing their bickering, Nora smacked her forehead, "Jeeezzz, I gave Brother ric a chance to mend things with Myra and apologize to her. Forget about apologizing, he’s not even behaving nicely towards her. Arghhhhh, sorry but I had to say it, but why the heck he keeps acting like a jerk in front of Myra?"

 Shana, keeping a poker face, responded to Nora’s question, "Alpha ric is being nice to Ms. Miracle; otherwise he wouldn’t have searched so frantically for her. He’s even searching for the unrted child’s nanny for her."

 Nora was not fully convinced by Shana’s logic, she mumbled, "But to me, it seems that he is just trying to fulfill his obligation. His Alpha ego is too big. What a pity, he surely will regret his actions in the future."

 Meanwhile, at the Everests Cooperation’s, Brave was perplexed as well as ufortable after that call from ric.

 Brave was swamped with work from the past two days and was about to go back home and rest a little, when Noah called him to attend a meeting with an important delegation. As soon as he returned to his office, ric’s call came in.

 And ever since then, he hasn’t been able to read a single letter from the document he was supposed to sign, his mind was a web of chaos, ’Why are they together, that too at a mall? He said he’s guarding her on mother’s orders. But, but he hates Myra and isn’t the best choice for that, isn’t it? So, why him? And why the hell all this, is making, me, feel, annoyed?’

 Rubbing his mildly swollen eyes, he patted his cheeks, "Come back to your senses. Let’s finish this work and head to the mall."

 Brave’s assistant Kaylee, who was standing in his office waiting for the signed paperwork, was watching his wild mood swings and animated facial expressions. He was always aloof andposed, so seeing him like this was odd and puzzling.

 She called out to Brave, "CFO Everests, we ’urgently’ need that document to be signed" reminding him.

 "On it" he hurriedly signed the files, and handed over to his assistant asking, "Are we done for the day?" and started getting up from his chair.

 This came as surprise for Kaylee. Brave was a workaholic and never asked such questions from her. Nevertheless, she replied, "You have a casual luncheon meeting arranged with Chivel’s Corps. After that, there is nothing arranged on your schedule for today."

 "Okay thank you. You may leave." Brave was once again dejected as he slumped in his chair.
