Atlas' eyes moistened, and he bit his lip to stop himself from crying. He let go of his quivering lip and murmured, with his head bowed:
"I didn't choose to be born, or the identity of my mother. I…"
Atlas swallowed and said:
"I thought he at least loved me, even though he left me in an orphanage. But you saying that, means your father Storm told you he never did. He said that he was best friends with my father. And that he wanted to help make his dying wish come true. Then why would he say that to you? He told me he wished to help me get closer to him and run Ryker Dig as my father did."
Atlas lifted his head and looked at Isaiah with hope. Everyone whether in the house or home, felt heartbroken for him. They never thought of that because Storm was like a hero to them.
He adopted his best friend's son to help him become a good president. But if that's the case, why would he say to his son that he never loved Atlas?
