Chapter 270 Is Daddy Sick? Is It Serious?


Cormac was emotional when he was speaking just now, and after he finished, a deathly silence hung over instantly. Alaric stayed quiet. After a heavy sigh, Cormac walked to the window and looked outside, unable to calm his emotions.

"Just leave." After a long while, Cormac spoke again, "I told you we're not on the same path. Whether you considered me a friend before or not doesn't matter to me. Now you're a high and mighty CEO, and I'm just a laborer."

He then continued, "Even though you might think my current job is beneath me, I earn my money through my own labor. I don't feel ashamed about it. I have hands and feet to support myself. I don't need anyone's pity. If you want to give me a stable life, then stop coming to see me. We've already gone our separate ways."

"Cormac, that's not what I meant. I don't look down on your current job. It's just that for you..." Alaric said.

"Aurora, take a break from your homework and come out to eat." Cormac directly ignored Alaric's words and called out to Aurora in the bedroom. Aurora came out.

Aurora understood that Cormac didn't want to see Alaric anymore. She also said to Alaric, "Please leave. We are about to eat."

Because the place was so small, once the dining table was set up, it almost filled the small living room. Alaric had to step aside to make room for Cormac and Aurora to place the table, forcing him to retreat to the doorway. "Uncle, the food you bought is really lovely. Next time, I'll learn to cook it for you," Aurora said.

"Sure," Cormac replied, then asked, "How was your swimming lesson today?"

"Not bad. The coach said I have a good aptitude," Aurora answered.

"Really? That's good," Cormac said.

Cormac and Aurora chatted and laughed as usual, completely ignoring Alaric.

At this moment, Alaric felt a mix of emotions. His chest felt tight, as if a lump were in his chest, making it hard to breathe.
