Maverick carried Edmond to the study room on the second floor.
"Uncle Maverick, why did you bring me here?" Edmond thought, "We didn't take a good picture just now, so why did we come up here? ".
"Edmond, do you remember the first time you met me at the airport?" Maverick sat on the sofa in the study room and whispered to him.
Edmond nodded, "Of course I remember. Uncle Maverick is very handsome, and I like you very much at first sight." In order to express his sincerity, Edmond added, "Actually, it's not that I haven't seen other uncles. It's just that I simply like you, so I especially want you and mommy know each other."......
"There is such magical attraction between people."
"Uncle Maverick, what is called magical attraction?"
Maverick raised his eyebrows, "You like me, and I also like you. It's a weird but wonderful, like a destiny. Can you get it?"
"I know what destiny means. Mommy told me before that there exists destiny between human beings. Predestined people are meant to meet each other in a vast sea of faces."
Maverick nodded, "Yes, so there is destiny between us. Then are you really hoping that I am your dad?"
Edmond nodded without any hesitation. "Uncle Maverick, I really hope so."
"What if I am really your father?"
This stunned Edmond for a moment. To him, he probably hadn't arrived yet, yet he was able to discover the difference between the so-called, true, and false at once.
Therefore, after thinking it over, Edmond said, "Uncle Maverick, do you mean that I can call you daddy in the future?"
Maverick reached out and rubbed Edmond's hair. The words he had been holding back for a long time finally came out, "Actually I am your real father."
Edmond blinked his eyes.
Maverick couldn't help pulling his son into his arms. His voice was a bit low, "Dad is very irresponsible. I haven't been by your side all these years, but I'm still very proud now. Because you have grown up brilliantly and I really appreciates it. These years, you have helped me take care of your mom. In the future, I will take care of you. Edmond, do you understand now?"
Edmond could understand these words.
After all, he had known that he did not have a father by his side since he was a child, and he had always wanted to know who his father was.
He liked Maverick and it had been several times that he thought how wonderful it would be if he was really his father.
But now, it was like the lamp of Aladdin had appeared in real life.
Children did not have so many twists and turns. He just felt that everything had become real. Happiness was real. He threw his arms around Maverick's neck, with excitement overflowing. "Really? Uncle... can I call you dad in the future? Are you really my dad?"
"Yes, I am. Just like Candy is my daughter, you are my son."
"Yay! That's great! My dream came true. Uncle Maverick is really my dad." He couldn't help cheering up. Maybe he was so cheerful that he couldn't help but lean over and kiss Maverick's face.
In the end, he became a little shy. After all, he was just a little boy. At this age, his personality gave priority to sullenness. He chuckled, "Dad, from now on, you are my dad. I'm so happy."
Even if Maverick had previously known that there would not be many problems in the "relationship acknowledging" part.
But at this moment, Maverick felt quite emotional. He hugged his son tightly in his arms and his eyes turned moist.
In the past, he always felt that even if he had reached the peak where others ate his dust, all the experiences he had endured, including his own childhood and unfair treatment of his own son, brought imperfection to his life. Therefore, he was quite indifferent to others.
But at this moment, he probably felt that all his resentment towards this world had been dissolved satisfactorily.
