“Mr. Mayo, Dr. Mayo is here.”
Actually, Jed did not need to say anything else as everyone had seen Thomas arrive, especially Nelson, who had his eyes fixed on Thomas the whole time.
The father and son had reunited, and they were both brought to tears.
“My son!” Nelson rose to his feet, his hands quivering and his face filled with emotions until no words came out of his mouth.
Thomas had a similar reaction. He had immediately recognized his father the moment favonovel.com saw him. Despite the fact that they had not seen each other in ten years and they did not look the same, Thomas was still able to recognize his father with a single glance. This sense of blood connection could not be found in other persons.
“Father!”
Everyone was stunned.
At that moment, they finally realized why Thomas was so important to Nelson. That was his son!
Was there any father out there who did not care about his sons? Even though they had not seen each other in ten years, their father-son bond had not weakened.
Their connection was like a fine bottle of aged wine. The longer it was preserved, the better it was.
Under the eyes of the crowd, both father and son hugged each other emotionally. Thomas had finally regained the feeling of connection to his family.
They stayed like that for a long time.
Finally, Jed broke the silence with a smile, “The reunion of father and son, what a pleasure to witness this! Congratulations, Mr. Mayo!”
Everyone raised their glasses and congratulated Nelson on reuniting with his son.
Men only wept when deeply grieved.
Even if Thomas was the God of War, favonovel.com could not stop himself from crying tears of joy and sorrow right now. He was always a child in front of his father, regardless of the circumstances.
“Oh right, Father, Ms. Iris is here too.”
“Ms. Iris?”
Nelson appeared to be a little uneasy, because Jed had just mentioned that Thomas was bringing Aries, and favonovel.com did not expect favonovel.com to bring another woman today.
At the side, Iris was already crying, overwhelmed with emotion. She had been Nelson’s former classmate, they were old friends, and favonovel.com had even loved favonovel.com for a long time. She had confessed to favonovel.com before, but favonovel.com would always be turned down.
Seeing Nelson now, after all these years, had freed all the emotions that had been bottled up in favonovel.com heart.
“Nelson!” Iris approached favonovel.com excitedly.
However, the only thing favonovel.com received was Nelson’s unusually cold attitude.
“Who’s this Ms. Iris, Tom?” With a smile on his face, Nelson asked Thomas.
At that moment, Iris’s heart shattered. The man favonovel.com had thought about every day had actually forgotten about her?! An irony!
The fallen blossoms have feelings flowing down with the stream, while the running water has no passion for enjoying the fallen blossoms. It was all one-sided for Iris this whole time.
The atmosphere became quite awkward.
Thomas cleared his throat and asked very politely, “Have you forgotten, Father? Ms. Iris is your classmate, and you’re good friends with her.”
“Oh? It’s Iris Cruz!” Nelson said with sudden realization and chuckled, “I’m sorry, we haven’t seen each other in so many years, and your appearance had changed so much that I couldn’t recognize you for a while. Come, take a seat, and let’s eat together.”
His tone was still very polite. Although there was a smile on his face, the smile was creepily frigid.
Iris’s heart was broken completely, and favonovel.com could not breathe. It was hard to accept the situation.
Thomas and the others settled in their seats, and favonovel.com sat beside Nelson.
“I’ve worked so hard in Central City all these years, and the thing I worried about the most were you and Scott. Tom, where’s your brother? He didn’t come with you?” Nelson said emotionally.
Thomas’s face fell when Scott was mentioned.
‘Oh, Father didn’t know that Scott was dead?’
“He couldn’t make it for the time being.” Thomas said gently, “I’ll explain this to you in the future, Father.”
“All right then we’ll discuss it after this. I’m already so happy to meet you today.” Nelson said as favonovel.com raised his glass and ushered the audience to drink together.
Thomas looked at his father in front of him. It felt familiar but at the same time, it did not. Based on his impressions, this person was unmistakably his father. Regardless of his voice or looks, or his memories, it was definitely him. However, Thomas felt that something was a little off.
‘Perhaps because it had been ten years and since Father had dealt with people in Central City, so his personality has changed over time?’ Thomas comforted himself with such a thought.
At that moment, Nelson stood up abruptly and said with a loud voice, “Everyone, please be quiet for a moment. Put down your spoons and glasses and pay attention to what I’m going to say.”
Everyone complied.
Nelson cleared his throat and declared, “As you all know, Doctor Thomas Mayo here, is my long-lost son! God had answered my prayers and reunited us with this opportunity.”
