Chapter 71 A Strange Connection
Seeing how James' eyes lit up, Hanson t smiled smugly. "These were all assembled by me personally, so no amount of money can get you these. I'm giving you these now. What do you think?"
With a complicated expression, James looked at Hanson. His gaze was filled with shock, question and even some amounts of admiration which he himself was unaware of.
As they had investigated Hanson before, they knew that he was from the special forces and that he had knowledge of such things. However, they did not foresee that he would design and build such a complicated model.
Although James liked it very much, he did not want to owe Hanson any favors just because of some toys.
So, he rejected the man. "I don't want your gifts."
James' actions, especially when directed to his irresponsible father, made his heart skip a beat and an indescribable feeling started to well up from within.
Pouting, James hesitated for quite a while before he finally reached out with his pinky and hooking it around Hanson's. "It's a deal."
Not only did James detect the strange current between the father and son, Hanson also felt this connection too.
They stared at each other just like that, and it was the first time that the both of them had such similar thoughts.
A short time passed before Hanson said gently, "So, can you tell me your name now?"
Looking at him disdainfully, James figured out that the man was just after his name.
Holding the toy in his hands, he then said, "I can only tell you that my surname is Greyson."
His reply made Larry choke. What a sly boy.
Not estimating that he would reply in such a way, Hanson looked at the brat again. "Seems like it will not be easy to know your full name."
"Of course not. Do you think just anyone can know my name? Don't think I would listen to whatever you say once you gave me some presents."
After that, James ignored Hanson and started to play with his toys.
At first, he disassembled all of them before rapidly and accurately assembling all of them back together.
This made Hanson quite impressed, as these toys were all made to replicate the real thing. It had a lot of components, which made assembling them quite hard. Even their best members had a hard time doing that. I never thought that the little kid could assemble them so quickly.
Nodding in approval, Hanson then sat beside Vania after seeing James having the time of his life. "How's everything? Are you feeling better?" he asked with a concerned tone.
Subconsciously, Vania smiled stiffly. "Much better now. Oh-the product of our contract has been completed, so how about you take a look? You can contact me if any problems arise. Also, he's still a kid, so I'm kind of at a loss here by you giving him such expensive presents. When I get discharged, I will also give Morales and Morgan some, so as to make us even."
Frowning, Hanson replied, "It's fine. They already have all they want at home. Since the two aren't interested in stuff like this, it's perfect to give him these. Besides, they have gone to their grandparents' for now, so they aren't in the country anymore. We can wait until they come back, then we'll discuss this further."
Hanson still saw the distant feeling in Vania's eyes.
Although he roughly knew the reason for it, he did not say it out, thinking that Vania might have misunderstood his words, since he still was undecided whether he liked her or not.
That was why he only accepted Vania's folder and said, "I'll have a look when I get back. I'll come pick you up once you're discharged."
