章 321: Chapter 321: Revelations

"Adam, what's wrong?"

"I am, Ms. Pearson."

"...Huh?"

The scratching of Paige's pen abruptly stopped as her eyes focused on Riley. The two were signing papers as the last step to them in becoming official superheroes. But as soon as Paige noticed that Riley… was not even looking at the paper even though he seemed to be signing without any problems, Paige could not help but be curious.

Paige then turned her eyes to where Riley was looking, only to see him looking at where his mother was previously at.

"She'll be fine," Paige then gently placed her hand on Riley's arm, and as soon as she did so, Riley finally moved his head and looked at her hand almost without any delay. His eyebrows became slightly tensed, but he did not really move away as he just looked at Paige.

"Please remove your hand, Ms. Pearson."

"R… right, sorry," Paige stuttered as she quickly returned to signing her papers, "I… I have problems with boundaries."
