Conversation Between Father and Son 3

"Wait, Father, let me explain," Aldrian said with a rigid smile.

"Brat, you'd better have a good reason. If not, you'll remember your past when you ran back to your mother crying," Aldrey said, his gaze burning.

Aldrian smiled bitterly, looking at his father like this. It felt as if he were seeing the father of his childhood, who sometimes punished him for his mischief.

"Father, I just wanted to let you realize it on your own instead of shocking you with my presence here. I thought it wouldn't be good for you if I suddenly announced myself," Aldrian said hurriedly.

"Not good for me?! Do you not know who I am? Do you think I'm some old man on death's door? Even if you had shown yourself at the city plaza back then, there wouldn't have been a problem—as long as Flamecrest didn't know about your relationship with me," Aldrey replied, sparks of flame already flickering from his attire.
