Lukas immediately changed his position on the couch as he finally heard that sentence from his father. Was he finally going to know everything about the polemics?

Lukas leaned over, and looked into his father's eyes. "Alright, then, father. I'm hearing," he said.

Elias sighed. "Very well. First of all... I would like to apologize to you," he said.

Lukas widened his eyes. "...Wh-What?!" he asked. 'It really has nothing to do with the polemics... he only wants to apologize?' the blonde boy wondered.

Elias immediately lowered his head once again with a sigh. "I know this is not an excuse, and that what I have done is not justifiable, but..." he raised back his head to look into Lukas's eyes. "I would like to tell you why I have done all of those... questionable things," the brown-haired man said.

Lukas nodded his head. He truly was very interested to know it. "Please, proceed," he said.
