Chapter 1392: He won't even call me Daddy! (First update, seeking subscriptions!)

~4 min read 625 words

Watching Ashley Barrett's departing figure, Su Quan actually admired this little assistant who wasn't pretty and often groveled and flattered.

She really knew how to lick, and had a very good eye for things.

Whether it was that 'you are the best, I will support you forever' or that 'I didn't hear anything just now', they were actually all bullshit!

It wasn't from the bottom of her heart at all, or to look at it from another angle, she was flattering Homelander from the bottom of her heart!

Could a 'sorry' change her long-standing resentment?

Don't bullshit.

She wasn't that naive, and Su Quan wasn't that naive either.

They wouldn't believe at all that childish tricks like 'sorry' and 'it's okay' could change anything.

Even the relatively simple Starlight probably wouldn't believe that Ashley Barrett would support Homelander forever just because of one 'sorry' from him.

As for Homelander... he probably wouldn't believe it either.

But he didn't care!

Whether it's support or recognition, whether it's from the heart doesn't matter at all; what matters is the actual action!

Just like the persona and script Vought International had always arranged for him, as long as he could obtain support and recognition, whichever plan was better was the one to use.

He didn't care!

If Su Quan, or rather 'Father', felt that this was better, that it was easier to get recognized, he was willing to do it.

To be fair, Homelander and Su Quan were quite similar in this regard; both judged by actions rather than intentions.

It's just that they received different educations, and developed different habits and personalities, so outside of 'I want to do whatever I want', Su Quan and Homelander were completely different.

"We'll talk later." Su Quan said to Starlight, then invited Homelander with a smile: "Shall we father and son race to see who flies faster?"

This was a parent-child activity Homelander had always longed for, so he naturally couldn't refuse. After responding eagerly, he opened the floor-to-ceiling window of the conference room directly.

The two flew out of the window and looked at each other.

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

Two sonic booms appeared simultaneously.

The moment the sonic booms appeared, Su Quan and Homelander had already disappeared like galloping lightning.

"This is too crazy!"

Starlight muttered to herself and called Queen Maeve on her phone: "Maeve, did you know that Su Quan is actually Homelander's father..."

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

With two loud thuds, Su Quan and Homelander landed one after the other in front of a remote house.

Here, grass covered the fields, green trees stood tall, and it was full of the quiet feeling of living in seclusion and seeing the Southern Mountains.

"Mom!"

A seven or eight-year-old boy shouted loudly while running out from the doorway.

Homelander's eyes were eager, his face full of smiles as he walked toward the little boy, greeting him while asking.

"Look at this handsome little rascal; buddy, do you know who I am?"

"Homelander!"

The little boy said his name without hesitation.

He was at the age of worshiping heroes; how could he not know Homelander, this superhero known all over the world!

Homelander looked at him with full expectation: "You got it right, but... do you know any of my other identities?"

The little boy shook his head and answered obediently: "I don't know."

At this time, the little boy's mother had already walked out. When she saw Homelander, an expression of surprise, bewilderment, and helplessness appeared on her face.

The whole person froze instantly.

Homelander glanced at her, smiled, and continued to say to the little boy: "Your mom didn't tell you... well, I am your father!"

Homelander stroked the little boy's head gently and said sincerely: "We are a family."
