Chapter 316 Is that really my dad?
Antonio pursed his lips, hesitatingly saying, "Sarah, the paternity test results are out."
Sarah understood in her heart and replied, "Let's go after we finish eating."
At the hospital…
The doctor handed Antonio the results of the paternity test.
Rather than opening it himself, Antonio handed the results to Sarah.
Sarah took a deep breath of relief and then opened the test results. It confirmed a 99.9% parent-child relationship.
Suddenly, Sarah felt a bit disappointed. She stared at the result for a full ten minutes before accepting the reality.
She had never expected her biological father to be someone like Victor.
Could it be that her mother had really left their home for many years because of him?
Sarah felt lost. She couldn't believe that her mother could fall in love with someone like him.
But the test results were right in front of her, and Antonio had personally taken care of the process, ensuring no one tampered with it.
This was the truth.
Antonio could tell the result from her expression and asked, "Sarah, should I continue to investigate?"
Sarah shook her head. "The test results are out. Is there any need for further investigation?"
Antonio couldn't believe that Victor would actually be his father-in-law.
He was clearly a scoundrel. How could this be possible?
…
Victor, who had received the news, hurriedly arrived. He still carried the pungent smell of alcohol, indicating his lingering hangover.
"Let me see the test results. I want to see if Sarah is really my biological daughter." After speaking, Victor belched.
Impatiently, Sarah frowned and handed him the test results. "See for yourself."
Victor looked at the results and instantly burst into laughter. He approached Sarah, saying, "See? I told you so. You are my biological daughter. I wasn't be wrong. Come, let Dad give you a good hug."
Antonio tightly grasped his wrist and sternly said, "Take your dirty hands off her."
Victor winced in pain, rubbing his wrist. He then unexpectedly started crying. "What's wrong with me hugging my own daughter? I've never hugged her, even when she suffered so much throughout the years."
As tears streamed down, Victor's emotions couldn't be contained.
He sat on the ground and wiped away his tears, carefully holding onto the paternity test report.
"Do you think these years have been easy for me? Do you think I haven't suffered?" he continued.
"Back then, Isabella left me with just one phone call, saying she had aborted our child. Do you know how much pain I went through?
Isabella and I were a perfect match. If it weren't for your grandfather, our relationship wouldn't have been ruined, and we wouldn't have been separated for so many years. As a result, you and your mother wouldn't have suffered.
Victor's words were deeply moving, causing Sarah to soften a bit.
"Sit on the chair first. Stop crying."
Sarah wanted to help Victor sit up, but...
Sarah couldn't bring herself to say anything. The barrier in her heart was not something she could easily overcome, and she didn't know how to deal with it.
Antonio helped Victor up from the ground and said, "You need to explain clearly what happened back then."
Although it had been confirmed that this man was his father-in-law, Antonio couldn't find a reason to show him respect. It felt strange to him. He couldn't believe that Sarah, who was so outstanding, had a father like this.
Victor sat on a chair and sobbed for a while before speaking clearly. "It's true that I didn't have much money, but as Isabella put it, I was still a person with potential. She said that no matter what happened, she wouldn't leave me or the child. Because of her words, I swore to live a meaningful life.
"Your mother was very virtuous and took care of everything. Whenever I went to work, I would bring her a flower every day when I came back. She said it was the happiest thing for her.
"But even so, I couldn't withstand the insults from your grandfather. Ever since your mother left me, I have been in a state of decline. I don't know what means your grandfather used to make your mother give up on me. Still, the fact that he didn't get rid of you means that he had a place for me in his heart."
Suddenly, Victor held Sarah's hand. "My daughter, I finally found you. Where is your mother? Can you take me to see her? How has she been all these years? Did she find someone to rely on?
"In the end, I admit that it was my fault for letting you and your mother go through all this separation for so many years."
Sarah's eyes filled with tears. Her mother had raised her alone, silently bearing all the hardships. Her mother never had complained nor uttered a single word of resentment towards her father.
They... were in love, right?
