"Hello, Cole where are you?" asked Adam on the phone.
It was clear to Cole that Adam was running and was worried about him, but he didn't know why he was asking and didn't know whether to tell him the truth about everything or not.
"What's the matter?" asked Cole, not answering Adam's question.
Cole clearly didn't want to reveal to Adam the truth, but Adam wasn't angry about that since he knew that Cole had done so to protect him and he had also done the same thing to his aunt.
However, it wasn't the time for him to be doing that and it was finally time for them both to confront each other about cultivation and what had happened to each other that had caused them to change so much.
"Listen, I am on Staten Island just like you and we need to talk. I already everything and we are bros, so there is no need to try and lie about it" said Adam directly.
Cole was gobsmacked and didn't know how to react to what Adam had said. Although he had a feeling that he might be a cultivator and that he had changed quite a lot, he didn't expect him to know about where he was and what was going on.
"Yes, we really do need to talk" agreed Cole who finally wanted to get to the bottom of what Adam was capable of and how he came to be like that.
Cole told him where he was and Adam, who was previously rushing towards the Epstein Family's main building because he was scared that something had happened to Cole, calmed down and called for a taxi.
After being driven to Cole's location, Adam paid the taxi driver then left the car to find Cole sitting at a public bench waiting for Adam to arrive.
They had both ever since seeing each other for the first time for a few years at the high school reunion that something had changed and that they had both been through a lot, and it was finally time that they both time the truth.
Staring at each other's eyes, they wanted to gauge anything about each other. Adam saw pain and drive in Cole's eyes, while Cole saw death and dullness in his eyes.
For somebody that had seen death, experienced death and caused death, Adam had a very profound and scary aura around him and in his eyes, but most of the time he tried to hide it and act happy.
Adam, Cole and Wayde were very similar in the fact that they had experienced hardship but never spoke about it or relied on others to sort it out, but that was what distinguished them from others.
Their experiences and hardship made them all more physically and mentally powerful than most others and was one of the reasons for their rapid progress.
"We have a lot to talk about don't we," said Adam as he gave Cole, who was clearly going through a lot, a brotherly hug.
Cole couldn't help but feel like breaking down and emptying everything he was feeling and suppressing to Adam, and for some reason, he felt that Adam would understand.
They found a nice quiet area to talk and before Cole began to tell Adam all of his troubles, he was much more interested in finding out how Adam became a cultivator and more about him. Cole had always had a feeling that Adam was holding something back from him and it was the perfect opportunity to confront him about it.
However before Cole could ask, Adam jumped in and spoke first.
"You probably want to know about how I became a cultivator and who told me about it, so I should probably talk first. The old man that I told you about that gave me a job and helped me out of being homeless and starving, he was actually my master that taught me cultivation and changed my life. It has been almost two months since then and he has completely changed my life and the life of those around me for the better" revealed Adam.
There was no chance that Adam could tell him about the system and what he said was the most believable and the closest that Adam was willing to get to the truth.
Cole found it quite unusual and unexpected, but since learning about cultivation, he believed that everything was possible and if Adam was very talented, which seemed to be the case, it could be possible.
It also matched the story that Adam had previously told him and Cole didn't have anything else to go off, so could only believe Adam and even if Adam was lying, which he couldn't tell anymore, he knew there would be some reason for it.
"Now for you, since you want to become the Epstein Family Head, is there anything that you need help with and what happened when you went back to the family?" asked Adam, who wanted to help Cole get the position so that he could ask a favour afterwards in return.
He knew that Cole was likely to help him anyway, but he didn't want to leech off his friend, especially since it was his closest friend that was willing to help him without thinking about it twice.
Cole was shocked by Adam knowing everything about his origin and that he knew that he had returned to the family, and couldn't help but ask how he knew.
"Hahaha, I was here on Staten Island for my own personal reasons, then I saw your father drunk and he told me everything" revealed Adam while laughing at Cole's dumbfounded expression.
He couldn't help but be disappointed and was expecting that Adam would have somehow spied on the Epstein Family or had a secret informant, but it turned out his drunk father was the one that told him everything.
After Cole told Adam everything that had happened in the morning at the Epstein Family Building, Adam burst out into laughter.
