“When I confronted your mother the next morning, she told me the truth.
She told me you weren’t mine. You’re the result of an affair she had while I was working hard for us in another country.”
I looked at my mom, who couldn’t meet my gaze. Then, I looked back at Dad as he continued to speak.”Your mother begged me not to leave her because she didn’t want to break our family apart,” he shook his head.
“So, I agreed.
But on one condition. I had to make her pay, and you too. Because YOU ARE NOT MY DAUGHTER!”
My heart shattered into a million pieces that day.I couldn’t believe my father had this evil side.
The evil personality that was so hungry for unjust revenge.”You mean you gave me that toxic soap because you were angry at Mom?
Because you thought I was not your daughter?” I asked as the tears in my eyes blurred my vision.
“You’re not my daughter,” he said and turned around.
“You’re not my blood.”For the next few seconds, I stared at his back in silence, wondering why he punished me for something that wasn’t my fault.
“Alright, I’m done with you,” I said as I wiped away my tears. “You’ll be hearing from my lawyer.”And with that, I stepped out of the house that was once my haven.
Over the next few days, I visited the hospital multiple times for my skin treatment and talked to my lawyer regarding how I could file a case against my parents.
Soon, my father received a notice of the restraining order and the impending lawsuit. With that, his smug confidence was shattered, and his reputation was in ruins.
His entire circle was disgusted by his actions.Meanwhile, Mom tried to get in touch with me, but I didn’t reply to any of her calls or texts.
If she couldn’t take a stand for me, why should I even bother talking to her?
I was done. Now, living with Henry, I feel a sense of peace that had been missing from my life for ages.
I don’t remember the last time I had laughed this much in my own house. I can’t thank fate enough for blessing me with a man like Henry.
I have no idea what I’d do without him.
