Sherry dejectedly looked at Silver. Her eyes were filled with tears as she pleaded for her daughter"s life. Silver on the other hand, somehow wanted to talk but shock was painted all over his face. then he stared at the woman. his daughters? He creased his brow. what is she talking right now? he was taken aback."You must be thinking that I am blurting nonsensical things right now, but they are your daughters. Please don"t do something that you will regret at the end. Don"t draw the blood of your own daughter!"
Silver could see the sincerity of the woman. she was not merely saying things to interrupt his plans.
"That night… You threatened one of my maids to put a drug on my drinks and you came to my room. I didn"t totally pa.s.s out that time that"s why I knew it was you who came to my room. I can still remember the exact words that you uttered that night. I was totally aware when you started molesting my body while taking off my clothes!" then she broke out in tears.
Unknown to them, Rio had arrived at the scene and was supposed to catch Silver but he halted when he heard Sherry"s great revelation. She was your daughter! It kept ringing in his head.
He was more than shocked but he decided to hear Sherry since she started adding some details.
"And the reason why you killed your stepmom is because she knew what you did, right? she was trying to protect me from you! I know I am a part of the reason as to why she died. Yes, she died wanting to get justice for me and for Rio. Lucky for you because your father chose to ignore her sentiments… But you killed her!"
"I killed her because she is such a pain in the a.s.s." He nonchalantly uttered as if killing was his hobby.
Rio, who was hearing the conversation was clenching his fist. He couldn"t believe the truth that Sherry has been hiding all these years. is this the reason why she decided to leave him? is it because she was pregnant with Silver"s daughter"s and that she has to leave just like that? ah! His mind is about to blow off.
And knowing that her mother died because she wants to get the justice right for Sherry, angers him. if his father is alive right now, then probably, he will slash him with words that even dogs couldn"t eat.
He was beyond angry!
"Why do you have to go this far, Silver? Is it your thirst for power? You have ruined a lot of families… isn"t it enough?"
"You don"t understand how it feels to grow up unwanted. You don"t understand how it feels to grow up having a father who only sees his legitimate son. You don"t know how it feels to be alone. It"s a h.e.l.l of journey, do you know that?"
"You are not alone Silver, you know that! You had us… Rio and me, we"ve been together for how many years and we got your back every time---"
"Why didn"t I see that? I didn"t feel your presence back then… Also, you didn"t see me as one of your friends. You only saw me as a servant, just the way the others looked at me."
"That"s not true, Silver!"
"But you made me feel that way!" Silver yelled as if he was losing his sanity. "You and Rio made me who I am today."
"Silver…" she yelped helplessly. "It"s useless to shove our thoughts to you right now since you have already made up your mind and allowed yourself to be consumed by darkness. But about my Erika… please spare her. if you really wanted to get revenge, then take me instead. Just please, don"t touch your daughter…."
Silver suddenly laughed hysterically. He was laughing as if mocking Sherry right now.
"Did you left the Mikasa Mansion because of me? because you thought that you are carrying my sp.a.w.ns?" he was still laughing in between his words.
Sherry creased her brow. did this man lose his sanity totally? Even knowing that he was the twin"s father, is he this shameless and heartless towards his own blood?
"Don"t you feel any remorse right now?" she was aggravated.Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click www.webnovel.com for visiting.
"Why would I?" his voice echoed around the bas.e.m.e.nt. Unknown to him, some of Rio"s men arrived at the bas.e.m.e.nt but Rio stopped them. he silently cued them to secure the surroundings but not to do anything unless he says so.
"Why should I be concern to them? well in fact, they were not mine in the first place!" he laughed. Meanwhile, Sherry was flabbergasted, what does he mean?
"So I guess that misunderstanding left you no choice but to hide your shame to Rio, am I correct?" he paused.
"You!"
"You heard me right, Sherry. Indeed, I tried to rape you that night, but I didn"t last long because of that nosy old woman. Though I did touch you a bit, but I am sure that it won"t impregnate you." he smirked.
"You mean----" her eyes widened in horror.
"Yes. you"ve been living and hiding based on your own misconceptions." He grinned. "It sucks right?"
Sherry was speechless and Rio who was listening in a corner was rooted to where he was standing as well.
"So let me guess, those two b.a.s.t.a.r.ds, they were Rio"s children isn"t it?" he sat down to meet the dejected woman"s eyes. but to his surprise, he received a strong slap from her.
Pakkkk!!! The sound of that crisp whack on his cheek echoed. His head turned a bit due to the force that it made him mad even more.
"You!" she glared at him. "Do you know how much I have to suffer under Cole when he learnt that you are my children"s father?!" she yelled. "I have to endure so much pain that I even left my helpless children because he threatened me that he will reveal all the truth to you?!" she stood up burning in anger.
"So is it my fault that you a.s.sumed things without knowing the truth first? Your fate doesn"t have to do anything about me!"
Sherry was about to slap him but Silver held her wrist and now she"s hurting.
"Do you have a death wish, woman?!" his eyes were bloodshot red.
He raised his hand to hit the woman but what happened next startled him. a force from somewhere made him fall on the ground and blood started to ooze from the side of his lips. Sherry staggered backwards when she saw the man standing in front of him.
"Rio!" she exclaimed. But then Rio didn"t face her, instead, he grabbed Silver"s collar and raised his fist against him.
"Let me guess, you have heard all our conversation, right? even the fact that you are the twin"s original father?" he was mocking him.
"Silver! I had given you a chance but you wasted it! but now, I won"t be lenient to you anymore!"
"ho-ho! All hail the king of the underworld!" Silver replied. "Did you really give me a chance? Cause to me, it looks like it was an option."
"Silver!"
"You can kill me if you want… this is your only chance… but I"m telling you, saving your daughter Aisha is too late." he grinned.
"How could you do this Silver? Even if she is not your daughter, but she is still your niece! Your blood was flowing in her too! Don"t you have any d.a.m.n conscience left in you?!" Rio"s fuming anger echoed.
"Take back your order, now!" It was more of a command than a plea.
Silver wants to fight back but Rio was too strong for him right now so he tried to pick up his phone under his jacket, but to his surprise, the call is still recording.
Rio ordered him to turn on the speaker so he could hear the people on the other line as well. but then when Silver was about to say a word, a loud gunshot was heard followed by a female"s scream.
Both Rio and Sherry held their breaths in dread. No! Aisha!
Then after a few seconds, Sherry"s phone ringed. She unconsciously answered it.
"Ms. Sherry, the preparation for the bone marrow transplant is all ready. We"re just waiting for you. Please head to the surgery room as soon as possible." The doctor"s voice echoed.
