The Queen They Buried

Chapter 553

Back in Rithol City, Alvin’s name was basically a golden ticket and everyone who saw him would respectfully address him as “Mr. Turner.”

“Hello, Grandpa. I’m a college student. I met Mr. Nelson while conducting field research for my project. He mentioned a few things about Mistmere, and I thought this place would be a great fit for my study, so I came along with him.”

“Oh. I sec.” Pontus responded, though he didn’t really understand what that meant.

Jacob explained, “This young man is a top student. After talking with him, I realized… Dad, I’ve been wrong all these years. I didn’t consider your feelings, and I hardly ever came back to visit you.”

He held Pontus’s hand as a few tears slipped down his face.

Pontus’s eyes turned red with emotion as he patted his son’s hand, comforting, “It’s good that you’re back, it’s good that you’re back.”

“And may I ask your last name, young man?” Now that he knew his son had come back because of Alvin, Pontus looked at him with much more kindness.

Alvin smiled in response, “It’s Turner.”
