Chapter 163 - 161 - Confrontation



On the way to my father\'s room, I was so anxious. Jayden was holding my hand and didn\'t let go until we arrived. I took a deep breath when Jayden turned the doorknob and pulled me gently inside the bedroom.

Father was sitting on the chair by the window. He didn\'t turn around when we went inside. He was just quietly staring outside.

"Father?" I softly called.

He still didn\'t look at me when I called him.

"I\'m sorry for bringing you here. I wanted to talk to you but I don\'t know how I can reach without the knowledge of the Forelli Clan." I continued, hoping that he would turn around and at least look at me..

I couldn\'t deny the fact that even though he had done terrible things, I still wanted us to be a normal father and daughter.

"So you used your sisters to get me? What are you planning to do with me? Kill me?" He asked in a serious tone when he finally turned to look at me.

It was more like a glare and his face was dark. I suddenly felt the chills throughout my spine.

"N-No father. I just wanted to talk. Can you at least hear me out?" I pleaded.

He frowned then moved his gaze to Jayden.

"You\'re the reason we are on this war. If you had give up on her and gave your son to me. I will let you be. But you are so full of yourself!" He almost yelled at Jayden.

I was confused. We never really found out why he wanted me and Caden. Jayden said they already asked George and his brother but there wasn\'t any clear explanation from them. It was more like father was also hiding something from his clan.

"You\'re trying to protect them, aren\'t you Matthew?"

We were surprised when Jayden\'s father came inside. We thought he would talk to him alone after I talked to my father

Jayden and I were turning our gaze from Dr.Richards then to my father. They were two old friends who meet again after a long time. They met in Flousia when we were there but they didn\'t talk that time.

"I don\'t know what you\'re talking about Chris." Father answered, averting his eyes away from us.

I was observing his reaction carefully. He was really hiding something. Maybe it was his intention and his feelings that he doesn\'t want anyone to know.

"You haven\'t change at all. You\'re still a bad liar." Dr.Richards commented.

"How about you? You also didn\'t change. You were supposed to hate me because of what I\'ve done to you and Lucia, to your son. Why are you always so calm?" Father suddenly blurted.

I wasn\'t really expecting that he wouod say that. His tone changed when he talk to Jayden\'s father.

"Believe me I tried to hate you. Eve since Lucia died and my son suffered from the trauma, I\'ve been telling myself that I should hate you. I know you are responsible in Lucia\'s death. I wanted to confront you a long time ago to question you. Why did you leave us? Why did you stop being our friend? Why did you have to hurt Lucia and worst kill her? Why did you let your father control you? You see, I have a lot of questions I wanted to ask you."

We let the two men talked while Jayden and I listened to their conversation.

"You already know the answer Chris. I told Lucia to just agree with our marriage. You knew I only love her like a sister but both of you decided to leave and ran away. Lucia knew that the Mafia would not let her go that easy. You should have convinced her to marry me and maybe she\'s still alive." Father bitterly said.

Dr.Richards took a deep breath before answering.

"I don\'t think so. If we didn\'t ran away, the three of us were alreadh dead a long time ago. Matthew, you always took care of me and Lucia. I\'m a nobody and an outcast in our school but I never experienced any bullying or something. I know it was because of you. Lucia was very thankful to you. She loves you and look up to you as her big brother. When we ran away, I sometimes see her crying and I know it was because she\'s worried about you. My only regret when I left with Lucia was leaving you behind. I\'m sorry. I should have convinced you to come with us."

I noticed father curled his lips and his eyes were sprakling because of some tears forming from it. But he turned around so we won\'t see it.

"Both you and Lucia have a good heart. I would never be like you. My heart was molded from iron, my hands were tainted with blood. My very existence was dark and taht would never change." Father answered in a trembling voice.

"Do you remember when you asked me that if evef you would be like your father, will I still be your friend? I was unable to answer you that time. I want to answer you now, it\'s twenty five years tool late but I want you to know that I am still your friend. It never changed. I\'m happy that I was able to talk to you now. Lucia wouod be happy."

Then I saw father\'s shoulders were shaking. He was crying. I didn\'t realize that I suddenly let go from Jayden\'s grasp and rushed to him. I run towards him, hugging him from behind.

"Father, please stop. Let\'s live happily from now on. I\'m here. Venice and my two sisters, we all love you. I won\'t deny it anymore. I couldn\'t stay mad at you. I still wanted us to be together. Please father. Can you do that? For the sake of Caden and my unborn child." I whispered.

My tears fell while I begged him, hoping that he still have an ounce of love left in his heart.
