Chapter Thirteen The Past Is Like Smoke

I don’t know what his father is doing. Xiya felt that the answer was quite in line with his wishes. After all, there were only a few questions in the arrangement and combination. I have been thinking about it for a month, and the answer should be perfect. As for why he turned around and ran away, it might be to show his mystery to himself? I called the family and asked them to answer him. By the way, I carried away the two bodyguards sleeping on the ground. I had to change two more next time. Can I save my life if I don’t learn martial arts with such poor quality?

Thea didn't know that her words had caused at least a thousand points of damage to her father. She ran away to the distance and took off her mask. Malcolm gasped heavily. She remembered her energetic energy when she was young and the deceased wife called her when she was dying. Tears flowed uncontrollably. At that time, she only knew how to make money and think that money could bring everything to her. If the enlightened wife of Thea had been like that of the age, she would not leave her.

I stumbled back to the old house of Meilin, locked myself in the room and stayed silently all night with my wife's album. After dawn, I asked the butler and knew that Tommy hadn't come home, and I was too lazy to pay attention to him now, so I let him go for a while.

Take out a box from the safe in the bedroom and kick it in his arms. He got into the car and told the driver to "go to Quinn Group". He didn't ask for directions when he arrived at the group. He found Xiya after walking around. He watched short videos every day and was familiar with his own group.

"Hey, Thea." Malcolm walked closer and greeted him softly.

Xiya, who was in the desk, was writing a document when she heard someone coming in and thought it was a clerk, but she didn't care. But she immediately realized that the voice was wrong, and she looked up and noticed that the middle-aged man in front of her was looking at him with a hot look.

"You...why are you here?" Although he had just met last night, he thought he didn't know and had to pretend he didn't know. This should be the first time he met after his life experience was revealed that day, at least the first time he met with this vest.

"Can you accompany me out for a cup of coffee? I want to have a good chat with you." Malcolm said with a sincere expression.

Thea also wanted to talk to him to see if he could resolve his hatred for the slums. Maybe she would not have to fight with Oliver after she was relieved. One brother and the other was her closest relative.

He nodded and left the building, found a coffee shop, ordered two cups, and started a long talk.

"Child, do you know that you are very much like my wife, just as smart, young and energetic. It's funny that I suspect you are my wife's biological child, and Tommy is born by Moira, you are too like her." Malcolm said seriously as he looked at Thea's eyes.

Xiya thought to herself, just talk, it must be that last night's words had some impact on him, making him feel that his figure and his deceased wife had a certain degree of integration, which was a coincidence.

That's not what you said in the original story. You said that I was a natural warrior. Listen to this, is this what a father said to his daughter? This is too hard to speak. No wonder his wife has been bachelor after her death.

"Can you tell me about her? I have only seen her photos from Tommy..." It is definitely true to consider her preferences. Anyway, Thea is too lazy to go back to work today. Moira has a lot of hearing and hearing. We should know the reason. We have nothing to do. It's all work hours and there are not many people in the cafe, so let's talk!

"We met on the train, she was..." Malcolm never said these words since his wife passed away. It was rare that someone would like to listen to it today. He started talking about it all the time since the first meeting. As for talking to the illegitimate daughter about whether there was some logical confusion in the room, he didn't think so much about it.

"At that time, she was in a slums and was robbed by a homeless man on the way off work. She had no grudges for hundreds of dollars! She fell in a pool of blood and called me three times for help. Unfortunately, I was sulking at the time and didn't answer the phone. One day, I planned to pick her up! I hated myself so much!" Malcolm said while smashing the coffee table hard. Obviously, this matter had been in his heart for a long time.

At this time, Xiya also felt a little empathetic. Is Tommy's mother a good person? She must be a good person. It's just fate that she joked about. If she had the strength, this wouldn't happen. Xiya was more and more sure that the path she chose was right. It was too difficult for women to live in this chaotic world. They had to have their own strength to protect themselves.

He gently patted Malcolm's hand, "She is so kind, I believe she will forgive you, Dad..." Finally, his voice was as light as a mosquito scream. On the one hand, he was not used to it, but on the other hand, he was not used to it! But seeing that he was in such pain, he still wanted to comfort him.

Malcolm was also shocked by this word, and the ecstasy on his face remained for a short while and quickly faded away. He stroked Thea's hair. "Child, I know you are sympathizing with me. It doesn't matter if you can admit it, I am very happy. You don't need to recognize me as a father. You are always Thea. Quinn, there are your family and your friends there, everything that belongs to you. I will only silently support you and protect you from behind. I will not let anyone hurt you!"

This is exactly what Xiya wants. If she changed her surname to Merlin, the Quinn Group would have no inheritance rights and would have to go to compete for the industry with Tommy. It would be too troublesome. Now it would be better for two children to be one family. She doesn't know the agreement between the two unscrupulous parents.

Malcolm took out a box and put it in the hands of Thea, "This is what I gave to my wife, I will give it to you today. I hope its light will continue to lead our way." He said, "All the truth, he stood up and left the coffee house."

When Xiya opened the box, she found that it was a very delicate necklace. A sky blue gem was hung on the silver chain. As the gem swayed, a soft lake light flashed. There were a few inscriptions written on the inside of the chain. Xiya didn't recognize a word. It seemed that it was not a modern thing?

The original plan to persuade Malcolm to let go of the slums was gone without even talking about it. He seemed to consciously avoid this topic. This is his knot. How can he enlighten himself?

Maybe he should ask Batman? His experience is very similar to Malcolm, but he died of both his parents since he was a child, and he let go of hatred during his last journey of thought. After thinking for a while, he quickly gave up on this idea. Batman was too smart and his psychology was too dark. He is a person who claims to be able to use intelligence and technological weapons to solve 90% of heroes and villains. Yes, he is even guarding against the heroes of justice. If he has many secrets, he should stay away from him.
