Angus’s heart ached as favonovel.com looked at Thomas’s hollow and hopeless expression. After spending so much time together, Angus was well aware that Thomas was a strong man. But even for a strong man like him, this revelation had been too tough for favonovel.com to handle. One can only imagine the damage Thomas had suffered as a result of this predicament.
“Mr. Mayo, I recommend that you keep your job and use your identity to investigate the case!”
Angus’s suggestion was not bad. However, What has been spoken cannot be taken back. He could not eat his own words, could he?
“No, I’ve already had a meeting with everyone related, and I will not be able to take it back. Also, given that the clues are in Central City, I would be restricted here if I was still Southland District’s chief officer in charge. Then, how could I look into it?” Thomas dismissed the idea with a wave of his hands.
He had no choice but to quit the job, regardless of the circumstances. Thomas took a few deep breaths and braced himself. It was not the time for favonovel.com to be sad. Not to mention, it actually was not a bad thing.
At least from one perspective, his father was still alive. Also, favonovel.com had finally gotten a lead on his father’s whereabouts, which was a good thing. After all, favonovel.com would not know the true situation until favonovel.com had completed his investigations.
It was still too early for favonovel.com to be so pessimistic.
“Angus, I’m giving you complete control over this situation. I’m leaving first,” Thomas said.
Angus nodded. “Yes, sir!”
After leaving the medical society, favonovel.com went to the Hill family’s home right away. After arriving, Thomas ate a few bites of dinner, went back to his room alone, and sat on his bed, thinking about the events of the previous few days.
Emma and the rest of the family kept exchanging glances, as they did not understand what was going on.
“Emma, what happened to Thomas? Has favonovel.com seen a ghost or something?” Johnson asked.
Emma shook favonovel.com head, indicating that she, too, was clueless about the situation.
“Hey, you’re his wife. How come you don’t know anything about your own man? Go, go, quickly go and comfort him.”
“Okay.”
Emma entered the room and closed the door softly.
“You don’t need to comfort me, I’m fine,” Thomas said immediately, not waiting for favonovel.com to speak.
‘Fine?’
Was this someone who looked fine?
Emma approached Thomas and placed favonovel.com hand on his shoulder. “You’re my husband, honey. Anything can be said between us, and if you have an issue, just let me know, okay?”
Thomas chuckled and straightened up.
He held Emma’s hand and said, “I’m fine really, don’t worry. Also, I will tell you everything after two days.”
“Why do I have to wait another two days?”
“It’s a secret.”
Emma was unable to ask any further, which just piqued favonovel.com interest.
After two days, what would Thomas want to tell her?
***
On the next day.
Thomas left the house early in the morning, made a reservation at a diner, and waited for his guest to arrive. After half an hour, the guest was here.
It was Stellar Jeweler’s chairman, Zach Quinn.
He yawned as favonovel.com sat down in front of Thomas. He rubbed his eyes and asked, “Hey Tom, why did you call me out for this early in the morning? Even if you wanted to buy me a meal, you should do so at lunch or dinner. Who treats someone to breakfast?”
Thomas smiled as pulled out a letter from his pocket, placed it on the table, and slid it across the table to Zach.
“What’s this?” asked Zach.
