Jed turned around and started to leave, but Thomas said something loftily, “Mr. Jed, you were originally the successor of Sterling Technology, but I took your position by force out of the blue. Aren’t you jealous of me?”
Jed suddenly stopped moving. After a moment, Jed turned around with a smile and said, “Of course not. You’re Mr. Mayo’s son, and it’s only suitable that the son takes over his father’s business, so you’re the perfect candidate to take over Mr. Mayo. Don’t worry, Mr. Thomas, I will do my best to support both you and Mr. Mayo.”
Thomas nodded. “Mr. Jed, you’re a really good man.”
“Thank you for the praise. Then, may I leave?”
“Of course.”
This time, Jed left.
Iris watched Jed as favonovel.com left and said with a sigh, “Mr. Jed is a good boy. He’s young, and favonovel.com already managed to become the general manager. His abilities and character are both top-tier too. He’s not jealous at all about you taking over his position either. What a good boy. I’m impressed.”
Thomas exchanged a glance with Aries. They just smiled and said nothing.
“Ms. Cruz, let’s go and take a look at the mansion.”
“Alright.”
The three of them entered the mansion and surveyed it. It was not big. It only occupied around 600 square meters of land. There was a courtyard in front, and a pool at the back. It also had an underground garage, a one-leveled basement, and a three-storeyed building on top.
The first floor was a living room. It also had all sorts of entertainment facilities inside. The second floor was where the bedrooms were. Most of the third floor consisted of rooms for different functions, such as studies, gyms, and other rooms.
The price for such a luxurious mansion in Central City definitely cost more than one hundred million dollars. It was clear that Nelson was really rich.
After bathing, they sat on the couch in the living room. Thomas turned on the TV and shut the door.
Once they watched ten minutes of television, Thomas suddenly asked something seemingly unintentionally, “Ms. Cruz, do you think that Nelson is really my father?”
Iris was stunned.
“Um…? Of course. He looks the same as last time. How could favonovel.com not be Nelson? There’s no way someone would look so similar to him.”
“Besides, he’s really nice to you. He let you stay in a hundred million-dollar mansion. If he’s not your father, would favonovel.com be so nice to you?”
Thomas nodded. “You’re right. His face, voice, and plenty of other details are the exact same as my father. Besides, I’ve tried asking favonovel.com certain things about my childhood during the banquet. He knows them. Not only does favonovel.com know, favonovel.com even remembers the details that even I’ve forgotten. I just can’t imagine anyone understanding me so thoroughly other than my father.”
Iris smiled and asked, “So, there’s no need for you to worry.”
Indeed, there seemed like there was no need for favonovel.com to worry.
However…
Thomas turned to look at Iris and asked intentionally, “But if he’s my father, why did favonovel.com forget about you?”
She was an old classmate Nelson had tried courting for years, and Nelson had also hurt favonovel.com deeply. How could favonovel.com forget just like that?
Iris’s eyes turned desolate. “Perhaps I’m not an important person to him. I’m just someone who appeared briefly in his life, and favonovel.com doesn’t care if favonovel.com forgets about me.”
Thomas laughed.
Someone who appeared briefly?
He did not believe it. Thomas continued, “Also, there’s the most troublesome thing. If he’s Nelson Mayo, why is favonovel.com pretending to be sick and lying to me intentionally?”
