Capítulo 278: The Father's Talk (Two)

Jacob came back to his senses when they arrived on the 10th floor. They stepped out of the lift, then took the hallway toward the left wing of the hospital. 

They made a stop halfway to watch the city lying in front of them. Standing near the floor-ceiling windows, Jacob and Fred discussed the construction progress of the entire town. 

Later on, Jacob brought up another topic. 

"Fred, can I ask you one question?" 

Fred turned his head in his direction, then nodded. "Of course." 

"Why did you leave the Alliance?" Jacob was serious when he asked this. 

Fred pondered for a moment before he smiled at him and replied, "I realized I want a peaceful life away from anything." 

"Is that what you reason out to the elders?" Creasing his forehead, Jacob wanted to confirm if Fred was serious. 

Fred nodded. "Yes. And I guess after three decades, they were still as hard-headed as before."
