Master Centipede had been in the industry for so many years, and no one had gained his respect. But today, favonovel.com had to respect Thomas even if favonovel.com did not want to. The strength Thomas demonstrated was far beyond what the Master Centipede and other people could contend.
If the battle continued, favonovel.com was afraid of losing Kerry and Laura as well. It was not that favonovel.com did not want revenge, but favonovel.com could not do it.
‘Weiss, please forgive me…’ Master Centipede sighed. He looked at Kerry, who had fainted, and his heart ached. Many times, asking a person to let go of his hatred was something that made favonovel.com feel more uncomfortable than killing him. But now, Master Centipede decided to give up on revenge in order to protect Kerry and Laura.
This was his decision as a father. He had already lost a child, and favonovel.com did not want to lose even these two. He did not want the incident of his child dying to happen again.
Master Centipede finally said to Thomas, “I won’t hold any grudge toward you anymore. From now on, Pivot Technology will leave Central City.”
What a helpless decision.
Laura looked at Master Centipede in surprise. She could understand Master Centipede’s decision.
In order to avoid more casualties, a reasonable choice to retreat was a very important ability. However, if it were the young Master Centipede, it would have been absolutely impossible for favonovel.com to retreat. But now it was different. Master Centipede was no longer young. He had to bear the responsibility as a father.
After speaking, Master Centipede got up and left. Laura asked favonovel.com subordinates to lift Kerry and leave the conference room.
Looking at their backs that were getting further, Thomas was deeply moved.
The identity of a father did bring different things to people. Master Centipede was a typical example.
This was good as well.
Pivot Technology chose to leave Central City. After that, Thomas would no longer have to fight against Master Centipede and the others. It could save favonovel.com a lot of trouble.
After the people from Pivot Technology had left, Alan said happily, “Mr. Mayo, I would like to congratulate you. From this moment on, you are the ‘Alliance leader’ of the Science and Technology Alliance, in charge of all the affairs of the Science and Technology Alliance. The Academy of Social Sciences will also fully support you. Just tell us if you need our help.”
Thomas nodded. “Thank you.”
After that, Dunstan and other people also stood up. They clapped vigorously as they were happy that Thomas had become the leader. The Science and Technology Alliance had Dunstan, and the Academy of Social Sciences had Alan.
It could be said that Thomas’s position was quite secure. No one could threaten his position anymore. The “Alliance leader” was just a nominal position. But Thomas could use his own strength to make this nominal position real.
After they returned to Sterling Technology, Thomas and other people sat in the office with joyful expressions on their faces at the same time.
Aries said excitedly, “Commander, congratulations. Starting today, you can go against the Gomez family openly.”
Thomas shook his head awkwardly.
He said calmly, “This is not something to be happy about. The Gomez family can be regarded as my ‘ancestor’. Nicholas is my grandfather, after all. Is it honorable to go against your grandfather?”
Aries scratched his head awkwardly. “Oh, that’s true. But you can finally plan the next step. It’s still better than being under their protection.”
Cancer also said, “Yes, and Pivot Technology will also leave the Central City. We’ll have one less opponent. This is something we should be happy about.”
As they were chatting, Diana walked in, holding an invitation letter. She glared at Cancer first and said unhappily, “You’re really good at acting. You even went to Pivot Technology as an undercover agent. Your acting skills are so good. Why don’t you star in a movie?”
Cancer shrugged. “Okay. Okay. Can you stop talking about me? I don’t know how many times I have been laughed at by Aries along the way. By the way, what is that in your hand?”
Diana handed the invitation letter to Thomas. “This is the invitation letter sent by the Gomez family. The day after tomorrow, it will be the annual family ceremony of the Gomez family. At that time, the senior management personnel of the Gomes family will attend.”
