Chapter 517 Heart–Wrenching Scene
Hurriedly leaving Johnson’s office, Byron saw that Cora and Martin had already gotten into a taxi.
He wanted to intercept them directly, but he saw Martin looking back at him through the rear window with distant and cold eyes.
Seeing a man who resembled him so much, Martin showed no signs of surprise.
He didn’t even feel puzzled about the man’s sudden
appearance!
The only explanation was that this little guy had known all along that he was his father but strongly rejected him.
Moreover, it seemed he had already sensed Byron’s presence behind the mirror just now!
Byron became increasingly certain of his deductions as he recalled Martin’s previous attempt to shatter the mirror and the Morse code message he left in the sketchbook: [You know my dad!]

But no matter how much Martin rejected him, the fact that he
was Martin’s father couldn’t be changed.
More importantly, he loved Cora deeply.
Even if Cora had decided to let go of everything, he couldn’t let her leave again.
He was determined to bind his wife and child back to himself,
no matter the cost.
However, by the time he had organized his thoughts, the taxi had already left.
Byron had to get into his own car immediately and chase after them.
As Byron caught up with Cora and Martin, the taxi had already stopped in front of a fast–food restaurant.
He frowned, considering getting out of the car to tell them that eating such things was unhealthy. If they wanted, he could open a restaurant just for them, where everything would be fresh and healthy.
But before he could step out, he saw Jerry getting out of another car.

Immediately, Martin broke free from Cora and excitedly pounced on Jerry’s legs.
Jerry, looking completely accustomed to Martin’s affectionate gesture, naturally lifted the boy and placed him on his shoulders. He then smiled at Cora, and the three of them happily entered the fast–food restaurant together.
To anyone else, it would appear like a happy family scene.
But only Byron knew how heart–wrenching it was for him.
If he hadn’t hurt Cora that day, he should have been the one carrying Martin, and he should have been the one laughing and chatting with Cora.
But now…
Byron still hesitated and didn’t know if he should go up to them at this moment. Would he ruin Cora’s mood if he suddenly appeared?
It had been a long time since he had seen such a bright smile on Cora’s face.
Inside the fast–food restaurant.
“Martin doesn’t have any psychological issues? Then why isn’t he speaking?” After ordering, Jerry hurriedly asked Cora.

When contacting Jerry to meet up here, Cora had only mentioned that Martin had no psychological issues but hadn’t elaborated further.
“He may be influenced by genetic factors,” Cora said, looking into the distance.
Jerry immediately understood that the genetic factors she mentioned might not refer to herself.
Then he naturally skipped over the topic and said, “That’s good as long as it’s not a psychological problem. Let’s patiently wait for Martin to start speaking!”
Jerry then took the hamburgers, opened one for Martin, and fed him.
Martin enjoyed the attention, smiling widely.
Then, they raised their Coke cups for a toast in celebration.
While they were joyously celebrating inside the restaurant, Byron received a phone call outside…
