Chapter 456 Let's Go Home

Aaron's POV:

My father's words made me almost doubt my own ears

As the CSO of Morris Group headquarters, responsible for internal management decisions, this means that in terms of administrative status, my brother Joe, who is the CEO, and I are equal

We both exchanged a glance, neither of us spoke first, but I knew that at that moment, his heart must have been like a storm passing through

Not to mention how much Joe has contributed to Morris Group over the years, even if he was

Just a playboy waiting to inherit power, it would be hard for anyone to accept suddenly being announced to lose half of their decision-making power

Fortunately, after discovering my father's secret that day, we had already talked about it

No matter how many aspects Mr. Morris, our father, designed to make me and him compete for the inheritance, I expressed that I would not be tempted by it and asked him to stand on the same side as me But now, it is the appointment spoken by my father himself that 1s becoming a reality one by one, and all the speculations that Joe and I had about our father's worst intentions are also coming true Each person at this dining table had different

thoughts, and coupled with the recent uproar on the internet about the "Morris family's past", it made me unable to help but feel sorrowful

I think if there were indeed an afterlife, then my biggest wish would definitely be to be born into an ordinary family, at least one that wouldn't have me still facing such nightmarish scenes 1n my thirties

But at this moment, even if it was a nightmare, I couldn't remain silent

Of course, I did not accept my father's appointment, so I interrupted him before he could continue talking to Joe and said, "The construction company's project has already ended as scheduled, and I will be returning to Germany immediately. I don't need you to give me any position here."

The person's face suddenly changed across from me

It is funny to say, he always emphasized his authority as a father. Even when I grew up and often contradicted his opinions, he would still get angry every time, as if he couldn't even imagine that I would oppose him

But actually, at the moment he said those words, it could be completely anticipated that I would not agree

To my surprise, this time my father, although still angry with my attitude, did not vent it on the spot. Instead, after a moment of silence, he got up and called me to the study room

After I became an adult, I rarely entered this study room with him

Stepping into the room covered with a red carpet, I couldn't help but hold my breath, just like that young boy who once desperately sought his father's approval, tightly gripping onto me once again, trying to release him from the depths of my soul

To be honest, I was very afraid to be alone with Mr. Morris

In front of him, no matter how successful I am now, his gaze always turns me into the age I least want to remember, the age that makes me feel ashamed and want to be the son he likes

"Aaron, you were a smart and strong child."

This was the first time that he praised me so directly. I raised my head in astonishment as if I saw a glimmer of water in his murky eyes

"These days, almost everyone knows about the past between your mother and me. I know that those things have always been hidden in your heart, Aaron, and as your father, I sincerely feel very sorry for you. Of course, I am also sorry for your mother, Grace Hoffman."

He sat on the chair as if even his voice had become much more world-weary

I couldn't help but frown, doubting if my ears were really broken, as I could hear an apology from the awake Mr. Morris to me and my mother

But when he mentioned my mother's name, I couldn't help but feel a sourness in my nose, but soon after, it turned into a more resentful anger

I would rather he completely forgot about my mother!

Just as I was about to mock him, he looked up and met my gaze. "Forgive me, Aaron," he said

"I want to hear you call me 'dad' again, just like you did before you turned six. I will provide you with the best resources to continue shining in New York. The Morris Group can offer you more than just success in the financial world; you can effortlessly venture into any industry you desire. From now on, you won't have to fight alone. Come home, Aaron."

Forgive me, go home

When these words were spoken by my father, I admit that the emotions I had been suppressing were shaken

I remembered the medical examination report that I accidentally saw at the private doctor's office, the tumor that was not yet determined whether it was benign or malignant. Did it

really cause Mr. Morris to have a drastic change in his temperament?

I was somewhat anxious, but the longing for normal family affection in my heart still made me decide to take a chance

After a moment of silence, I took a deep breath and tried to calm my emotions. "I can come back because this was originally my home. So... I hope you can agree to one condition for me, which is to have my stepmother, Mrs. Grace, change her name back to Maria, and both of you should visit my mother's grave on her anniversary every year."
