On the other side, Sophia glanced subconsciously at Nathan, who was playing with the Fletchers children at the sandpit outside of the door. Her heart ached for him.

In the end, Old Master Fletcher turned to the page with Stanley on it. He started the introduction with key points, “This is Stan, and he is even more capable. He has a keen eyesight; he never missed when he used to shoot birds with a slingshot when he was still a child. He used to be a sniper in the military.

In fact, he is able to lock onto a target within 3 seconds before killing the target in one shot! He has the best marksmanship amongst all my great-grandchildren. He is not only proficient in all kinds of firearms; he is even skilled at using the bow and arrow. Look at this picture; isn’t he cool? Tsk-tsk. It’s not an exaggeration to say that Stan has a perfect score in hitting his targets.

It’s a pity that he doesn’t like being in the army. He left the military together with his uncle to join so-called Esports. He isn’t interested in shooting a real gun in real life, but he enjoys shooting in a game. He plays ‘Counter-Strike’ and something called ‘Crossfire’. Isn’t that shooting with a gun?! Recently, he even participated in an Esports World Championship.

He established a company together with a few classmates, claiming that they are creating a sniper video game. Oh, my! I am too old to understand the younger generation’s thinking. Anyway, my Stan is the best!”

Sophia remained silent while listening to Old Man Fletcher praising Stanley. After he was done with the high praises, she turned the photo album to a page with Michael on it. “Old Master Fletcher, tell me stories about Taylor.”

Old Man Fletcher was even more talkative at the mention of Michael. He started going on about Michael in an eager manner, as if he was reiterating tales from the revolutionary period.

On Sunday night, Hale came over to pick Sophia and Nathan up. Old Man Fletcher seemed reluctant to let them go. “Sophie, drop by whenever you are free!”

Sophia nodded. “Of course.”

I will always drop by as long as Old Man Fletcher doesn’t toss me to Stanley.

 

While staring after Sophia and Nathan as they left, Old Man Fletcher mumbled to himself, “Is it true that the girl isn’t a Mitchell….”

Michael had not returned by the time they both arrived home. Sophia started going through the drawers once she arrived home. It’s not in the bedroom, nor is it in the study. I’m not sure where it is.

 

“What are you looking for?” Nathan stood behind her while staring at her sweating from the exertion of searching for an unknown object.

Sophia answered him, “Kids like you won’t understand.”

“Hmph!” Nathan snorted coldly.
