Chapter 241 Reconciliation (1/2)

Lucian couldn't remember how he left the office. The moment he got in the car, he felt as if all his strength and energy had been drained.

He clearly remembered what was said on the document and all he could think of was his chest tightening as every second passed.

In the police station at the city.

”Is the information you provided true or false?” Lucian's cold voice rung through the glass window.

Vernon was terribly sick—his face pale and his cheeks hollow. He couldn't stop coughing even as he nodded to answer Lucian's question.

Fists clenched tightly, Lucian stared at Vernon through the glass window. ”What if this is just your way to get revenge?”

Vernon stopped coughing and chuckled. ”This isn't revenge. This is destiny. This is retribution.”

Vernon's voice gave him away—it was full of pain and resentment. This did not go unnoticed by Lucian.

Lucian finally knew why Vernon was so cruel to Iris and Amelia.

However, Lucian couldn't believe that the reason would be his own father.

”If you're still suspicious, you shouldn't have come to me. You should have used the most effective method -- paternity testing,” Vernon said emotionlessly.

Lucian suddenly fell silent. A mixture of nervousness and distress arose in his chest.

He didn't know what he would do if he found out that it was indeed true. How could he ever handle a situation like that?
