While Others Cultivate, I LVL UP In My Sleep Using The Dungeon System
Chapter 229 - Telling The Truth Part 2"Come on, tell us. Whatever it is, we will accept it and move on, you can't keep hiding it from us" urged Sarah and Emma seeing that Adam was reluctant to answer them.
"Sorry, I need to use the bathroom quickly, could you excuse me," said Adam before quickly getting up and going to the toilet.
Seeing that he wasn't leaving the penthouse, Sarah and Emma assumed that he was coming back and didn't try to stop him, but they wouldn't have been able to even if they wanted to.
Adam hadn't used speed that was supernatural, but he used speed that was higher than a normal person would be able to achieve and with his great control, moved at a speed that was too fast for them to stop, but still seemed normal.
Walking through the very large penthouse, Adam went to the toilet that was furthest away from where Sarah and Emma sat, which they found very unusual, then as soon as he got inside the toilet, took out his phone.
He knew that Cole was probably busy and doing important things, but Adam knew that family and friends came first and needed to call him before saying anything to Sarah and Emma.
Cole was surprised by Adam's phone call and it was perfectly timed as he called while Cole was checking through his phone and answered after seeing who it was.
"Cole you bastard, you gotta help me out here" scolded Adam as soon as Cole answered,
"What did I do?" asked Cole who was confused by Adam suddenly scolding him.
"Emma and Sarah are both asking me to tell them the truth and stop hiding things from them and it is all because you keep disappearing. What should I do now?"
"What! You keep disappearing randomly the same as I did and you know that I was in a tough space mentally and physically, so I wanted to keep my distance so that I didn't do something that I would regret and focused on increasing my power"
Adam and Cole continued going back and forth, and after they bickering for a few minutes, Adam finally asked, "So what do I do? Should I tell them?".
"Do you think they should know?"
"Well, my aunt kind of figured it out and now knows that supernatural things exist. But she doesn't know the details and accepted it for what it is. She was initially shocked and knows that I healed her using a pill and that I killed the Hospital Director, but still accepted it and moved on from it, no longer caring about the details" said Adam.
Adam paused, then added, "The truth does make it easier with those that you are close to, but they might not accept it and it might affect your relationship with them. I regard my aunt as something more than a mother and she cares and loves me like her son after raising me from a baby, so I was sure that we would move on from it and accept it together. If you think you and Emma can do the same, then I will tell her and Sarah will probably accept it and is merely curious".
Adam's overview made Cole think and he knew that he was right about everything he said, but he didn't want to hurt Emma as he had hidden the truth from her for so long despite her being the one that was by his side no matter what.
Sarah had received many favours from Adam and had been treated well by all 3 of her friends, so she had nothing to complain about and would accept what the truth was no matter what, but the same couldn't be said for Emma.
Cole was silent and didn't give Adam a definitive answer, but after thinking about all the time that he had spent with Emma and still wanting to be with her, Cole decided that he needed to tell the truth.
"Adam I have decided that I want them to know and you need to make sure to warn them about the dangers of knowing the truth. Even if they don't accept it and no longer want to speak to us because of the danger or because we didn't tell them, they need to know the truth. I want to stay with Emma, but if it doesn't work out, I will still help and protect her if she needs me, but I will need to move on. I have so many responsibilities now with the future of my family resting on my shoulders, so lying to them will only be another liability" stated Cole.
Adam was surprised by his resolve and mature answer and agreed with his decision.
"I feel the same way and will tell you how it goes afterwards," said Adam before wishing Cole good luck on his duties and ending the call.
Ending the call, Adam flushed the toilet to make it sound like he had been using it, then left the bathroom and had an annoyed expression on his face.
He had already had the difficult and awkward talk with his aunt and didn't want to have it again, but since they were only his friends, it would be easier for them to accept and understand.
It would have been much more difficult for Cole to have the conversation, but Adam was planning on staying calm and was planning to tell them everything and warn them before leaving.
However they took it was up to them and he could get Ava to tell them how it went afterwards, but he didn't want to stay there himself as it would be very troublesome if he did.
"Well here goes nothing" mumbled Adam to himself as he walked back over to where Sarah and Emma had sat silently, waiting for Adam to return.
"So are you going to tell us the truth?" they asked as he sat down before them.
Adam took a deep breath then nodded his head.
