NovelStartChapter 906 Evan pondered deeply, savoring Tarquin's words for a moment before asking, "So, if the base still belongs to the country, how did you manage to get this pass? What kind of backdoor did you open?" Tarquin looked at the youngster, saying earnestly, "I just filed an application for you, getting this pass was all your own doing." "What? My own doing?!" "Yeah, I sent ssketches you did in your free tto the founder of AZ, the old man was so thrilled he calledthe sday, saying he wanted to meet you.
I told him those were drawn by my 5-year-old son, he couldn't believe it! He wanted to recruit you into AZ for personal mentorship, but I flat-out refused. I was afraid your mom would have my head." Getting into AZ meant not being able to leave, and Evan was only five. Elysia, despite her patriotic heart, wouldn't agree! Even if she did, for the greater good, she'd be crying every day missing Evan.

If you ever leak secrets or defect, the old man will bear the full responsibility." Evan, feeling a surge of enthusiasm, declared, "I would never spill secrets, nor beca traitor! Mom said, a true man should love his country and family! I'm definitely a true man!" Tarquin chuckled, yet couldn't help but inwardly admire: Elysia really did a great job raising them. Though Evan was mischievous, his values were solid; he would never fail when it mattered most. The reason he wanted to give Evan this gift was partly because he wanted to give something Evan would truly love.
He had sought Elliot and Elijah's advice, and both said Evan was obsessed with AZ.
Secondly, he wanted to pave a way for Evan.

"Does Mom know about this?" Evan asked.
Tarquin shook his head, "Your mom is a bit timid, she doesn't yet know your capabilities, so I haven't told her. Keep the pass safe, once your sister's affair is sorted, I'll sneak you over for a visit." "Yeah! Tarquin, you showkindness, and I'll show you loyalty. From now on, we're as close as father and son!" His words said father and son, but his tone was that of brothers.
Even using each other's full names.
Tarquin, touched as a father, sighed inwardly: his own, his very own.

Elysia, speechless, "What's there to keep secret, all sneaky? Did your prepare gifts for Elliot, Elijah, and Emmett too?" "Yeah, those are secrets too."
