“Is this Mrs. Batton?” The caller was Leon Batton’s class teacher.“Yes, speaking,” Xyla Quest replied with a frown.“Has Leon recovered? When will he be returning to school?”Her eyes widened in shock when she heard this.When did her son fall sick?With a sinking feeling, she instantly knew what was going on.Leon was probably playing hooky and came up with the lie of falling sick to get out of attending classes.That was unexpected and shocking to her.Her eldest had always been a good student since he was a kid. He was a model student in the eyes of his teachers and peers.She never had to worry about Leon academically.So, what happened to him?Why was he playing hooky?Could it be due to teenage rebellion?“Yeah, he’s almost fully recovered,” she lied, covering for her son because she hoped to sort things out privately. She didn’t want to leave a poor impression on him in front of his teacher.“How could he have caught a cold and not recovered for an entire week

Xyla Quest didn’t interrupt Leon Batton right away, seeing that they were about to win soon.Instead, she silently stood behind him, keeping her temper in check while observing his gameplay.She would wait until the game was over.As an experienced League of Legends gamer, she knew not to interrupt someone during a match despite how livid she was.She understood how annoyed Leon would be if he got interrupted amid his heated gameplay.She had always known that her son was talented at League of Legends. However, she never paid much attention to it due to her busy work schedule.Now that she had seen him play in person, Xyla found that he was as good as she had been when she won the world championship with her team.He seemed to be even better than her back then.She was stunned for a moment when she saw his username.“S.”S was the god-like player who dominated the entire Korean server for the past two years.He had held the number one title all this while, and nobody could s

“First of all, I’ve already studied up to university courses by myself. High school courses are useless to me now,” Leon Batton began.“Secondly, all I’ve been doing are revisions these days. It’s getting to be quite boring,” he added.Xyla Quest frowned slightly. “Boring? Is that why you skipped school?“No matter what, you’re still a high school student. As long as you’re in school, you must adhere to the rules.“Even if you’ve studied up to university courses, you should not break the rules,” she stated.She didn’t expect her son had started studying university courses of his own accord.She knew he was academically gifted and could retain everything he read, but he didn't tell her about anything else.School might seem boring from his perspective, but she was still upset that he broke the rules. Leon helplessly nodded. “Okay, I understand. I won’t do it again.”“Skipping school to play games? I’ve got to hand it to you,” Xyla said while shaking her head.He didn't seem t

“In fact, I know that nobody in the family would agree if I wanted to become a professional gamer,” Leon Batton said.Xyla Quest immediately shifted her head to look at her son upon hearing his words. “Why?”“I know you and Dad always told us you’d respect our decisions every step of the way, but I didn't think you would be happy if I chose to be a professional gamer.“I know early on that your wish is for me to take over the family business in the future. Besides, I didn’t want to disappoint you guys,” he added.Xyla suddenly felt that her son had matured immensely by the way he spoke and his thought process.He was able to view things more comprehensively and consider other people’s feelings.He seemed like a very understanding boy.He always cared about what his parents thought.As his parents, Xyla and Stanley Batton’s efforts weren’t in vain at least.After contemplating for a few seconds, she regarded him seriously. “Would you like to become a professional gamer?”“If w

Xyla Quest gave Leon Batton a high-five to celebrate their victory.She then smiled and saluted him. “You were great!”“Of course,” he smiled smugly before asking, “Another round?”She was even more eager to play now.She quickly formed a team and invited her son to join her.Just like that, the two quickly became addicted to the game.The feeling of finding an equally capable teammate compelled them to play until half-past ten in the evening.To avoid distractions, they even silenced their phones.Stanley Batton noticed their absence at home and started calling to look for them, but neither answered.They had completely lost track of time.After winning another match at eleven o’clock, Xyla finally shifted her gaze to the time in the bottom right corner of the computer screen.She was shocked that they had been at it for hours and hadn't realized it had gotten so late.“We should stop. Look at the time,” she gazed at Leon in alarm. As she spoke, her stomach began to growl.

Stanley Batton decided to yell at his son since he couldn’t yell at his wife.“Sorry, Dad,” Leon Batton apologized sheepishly.“Don’t blame him. I’m at fault, too,” Xyla Quest stated.Lynette Batton walked over to her father and tugged his hand. “All right, Dad. Don’t be upset. Mom and Leon forgot about the time because they were too engrossed in the game.”Stanley’s heart softened at his daughter’s pleading.He no longer felt like yelling at Leon.Although, he still frowned slightly and complained. “I don’t know what to do with you.”With that, he caught his son's gaze. “I won’t punish you since you made your mother happy, but don’t lead your mother astray again.”His son nodded even though he believed that his mother had willingly joined him of her own accord. Leon was used to stuff like this since he was a kid, so he didn't let it bother him.“To be honest, I joined him willingly,” his mother admitted.“All right, let’s not talk about this. We’ll head home since it's so

Leon Batton chuckled. “Yeah, I know it will be a tough journey ahead, but I won’t look back.”“I know you can be successful at it. You’re the best I've seen, Leon,” Xyla Quest told him sincerely.“Thank you for supporting my dream, Mom,” he said softly, feeling his heart warmed by her unwavering support.She smiled in return. “You don’t need to thank me. Just do your best, and don’t think I’ll go easy on you simply because you joined my club. That won’t be happening.“I’ll treat you the same as I do everyone else,” she added.He nodded.“Yours and Lynette’s identities have always been a secret. I think that should remain a secret even after you’ve joined us,” she went on.He nodded again, knowing that his parents wanted to protect them from the public's eyes. The siblings had always followed this rule ever since they were kids.Leon used his original name all these years, but his personal information had always indicated he was from a regular wealthy family.Hence, nobody susp

“Good,” Stanley Batton said with another nod.Xyla Quest had always been the one to call the shots in their family. Her husband agreed with whatever she said because she was the boss.That was how things worked from the start, and it remained true until now.“My parents invited us over for dinner tomorrow, including the kids,” he informed her.“Okay, sure.”“They haven’t seen them in a while, so they have missed them,” he added. “They also missed you since you haven’t been there in a week.”Xyla smacked her forehead guiltily when she heard him. “Oh, dear. Look at me. I’ve been meaning to visit, but I keep forgetting because of work.”“It’s fine. You’ll be there tomorrow.”“Yeah.”“Dad and Mom know you’re busy, so they understand,” he assured her.“Yeah, they really are,” she replied with a sigh.“Oh, yeah. Do you know what else Mom told me when she called today?”Xyla seemed curious. “What?”Her husband shook his head helplessly. “She told me to treat you better and buy yo
