Chapter-22 Complicated

While Imanuel was talking with Zereth, his terminal rang. Imanuel couldn't help but frown after glancing at the caller ID, but in the end, he still picked it up, "Hello."

Fredrick's stern face appeared on the virtual screen, "Imanuel, why didn't you tell me that you were Dr. Gabriel's student!?"

Fredrick's voice was particularly harsh when he said this. Imanuel was silent for a while, calling after such a long time, his uncle's immediate concern was this matter, rather than asking how he had been.

"Uncle, I never brought it up since you didn't give me the opportunity, but I've never concealed it. So, if you had inquired a little, you would have found out long ago."

The words hung in the air, leaving Fredrick speechless. He knew he had been intentionally neglecting Imanuel, but he never saw it as a fault of his own. Why would he like the child who was born from that person and his sister? It was Imanuel's fault all along to be that person's son, he was already generous enough to let him have a good life all these years.

"Imanuel, don't try to make excuses. Your aunt and brothers are still there. You could have told them."

Imanuel had already expected this, he really wanted sneer at this family's hypocrisy. Mrs. Anderson was always indifferent towards him, even a little disgusted, so she never paid attention to him. As for Edan, if he really told him, then this person will try his best to to take advantage of the situation. As for Adrian, he didn't even want to talk with this person.

"Uncle, let's not waste each other's time, just say what is your business with me?" Imanuel didn't want to waste his breath on this person.

"You have just been away from home for a few years, and you gave forgotten all the manners! Imanuel, no matter what, I am still your uncle!"

Fredrick wanted to say more, but he was interrupted by Imanuel, "Just because you are my uncle, I am still talking with you over the terminal. If I really lose my last ounce of respect, then don't even think about being able to talk with me."

"You! How dare you talk like that to me!? Don't forget, other than being your uncle, I am also an Archon. "

Imanuel sneered after hearing this, "Archon? Uncle, then you should also not forget that sitting in that position, you can't do anything unscrupulously. I don't think that Galactic Alliance is really ready to lose me."

What Imanuel said was indeed true, as an Archon, his power is second only to the Alliance President. If Imanuel was only a mere surgeon working on a remote planet, then he could have taken action. But unfortunately, Imanuel is a precious talent for the Alliance. If anything happens to him, the Alliance President will definitely try to get to the root of the problem.

Fredrick wanted to hang up the call, but he remembered his son's request. So, he finally decided to change his tactics, if hard does not work than soft will, "Imanuel, what I am doing is for your own good. Please try to understand, your identity will definitely bring you many troubles, that is why I called you today."

Imanuel didn't interrupt and just listened silently. Fredrick thought he was finally willing to listen to him, "Imanuel, you should come back to the Capital planet. You can stay at home, I will inform Adrian to arrange some military personnel to take care of you…"

Zereth, who had been listening to the whole conversation from the sidelines, couldn't help but clench his fist with anger. This is obviously not protection, but detention. He really wanted to go to the other side of the terminal and beat the shit out of this old man, whose brain was getting groggy with age.

"Uncle, I have already cut ties with your family, so you don't have to worry about my protection. This will be the last time I call you uncle. If there is nothing else, then I will hang up first, and please don't try to contact me in the future." After saying this, he hung up the call before Fredrick could react.

Zereth gave Imanuel a thumbs up, "I almost thought you would be soft hearted. But then again, your uncle's bad intentions are so clear, I don't know how he became the Archon."

"Have you forgotten that he is from the Anderson family?"

Zereth also realized this, presently, below the Alliance President, is the council of Archons, which has a total of 12 members, out of which 6 members are fixed and remaining are voted. All the fixed members belong to the six great families of the Galactic Alliance, one member from each.

The Anderson Family is one of them. In Fredrick's generation, there were only two people, him and his sister. His sister is already dead, so the position will naturally belong to Fredrick.

Zereth let a long sigh, "Your life is so complicated…"

Zereth really felt distressed for Imanuel, not only was his health bad, but even his family situation was very complex. He only knew that Imanuel had lost his parents when he was fifteen, but he didn't know his relationship with the Anderson family.

Imanuel did not comment on this and only focused on drinking the newly brewed coffee brought by a robot, "It's okay…"

"Hey, I have heard that Edan is actually an angel and that too with four wings… Is it true!? I have even heard a few rumors that he will also join the Academy soon…" Zereth didn't want his friend to be sad, so he changed the subject.

"I guess the rumors are pretty accurate…" Imanuel was not surprised after hearing this news, but he also felt quite strange, it is just he couldn't pinpoint what was strange. His feelings for Edan had always been like this from the very beginning.

"What is it? Don't you like him?" Zereth asked as he saw Imanuel's strange expression. Edan is a celebrity, so the general public does not know about his real life experience.

"Nothing…" Imanuel shook his head gently, "Maybe I am overthinking…"

…..

Edan's smiled as he talked with his father, "Don't worry! Dad! I will try my best to persuade second brother… he will definitely understand our good intentions. Please take care of your health."

After talking for a while, he finally hung up the call. The next second Edan's delicate face darkened, "Damn it!"

Before Edan could do anything else, he heard a promt from the door. He immediately relaxed his expression and gave permission to open the automatic door. He saw a handsome Alpha in a green military uniform standing at the door.

The young Alpha had a slight blush on his face, "Edan, you don't feel uncomfortable here, right!?"

Edan smiled gently, "No, commander! I am very comfortable."

The young Alpha was dazzled by this smile,"T-that's good… We will reach the Academy by tomorrow…"
