Chris frowned. The fact that Naoki had only brought up Daichi could only mean that they had passed on Ken for whatever reason. He had probably asked for Chris's help because they were worried Daichi would decline if they didn't select his brother.

"My two boys are both old enough to make decisions for themselves, I won't interfere." Chris stated, his tone cold.

Inwardly, he was devastated that Ken was being left out, not because he was his real son. But because he knew how much Ken had worked to improve himself in the span of a year after taking a step back from pitching.

Now that he knew the reason for for him changing positions, it was even more heartbreaking to hear.

However, Ken had gone this far on his own merit, so Chris decided not to pity him. He would continue to support him in the background, no matter what decision he made.
