Chapter 1491 Recognition (1/2)
It was supposed to be a great thing for Amy that Louis was actually her father, but for some reason, she didn't seem to feel happy about it.
Louis grabbed her small hand and nodded.
But Amy quickly tried to get away from his tight grip, which made his heart sink to his stomach. ”What's wrong with you?”
Just yesterday, they had been getting along quite well. Did she want to stay away from him because she was scared?
Amy tilted her tiny head up to look at him with her lips pursed tightly. She put his hands behind her back like a small hedgehog with thorns.
Louis wasn't sure whether he should cry or laugh at that moment. He just felt so heartbroken. ”Please don't do that. It's just a guess right now, okay? We won't know if it's true or not until we do a paternity test at the hospital.”
”If there is no evidence, Uncle Louis, then how could you assume something like that?” Amy snorted.
The question shocked Louis.
He was rendered speechless for a moment. So, he decided to create some distance between them for her comfort. ”Amy, when you told me you liked me yesterday, was that a lie?”
He knew he shouldn't have said that to her. If he was actually Amy's father, then in her eyes, he would just be the deadbeat man that had abandoned her and her mother. Amy probably felt even more repulsed by his question.
But he couldn't help but feel like he was wronged.
In his defense, he had no idea that he even had a child, and Taylor had never looked for him. He was also just an innocent victim in all of this.
Louis wouldn't have let Amy down if he had known about her existence. However, the little girl inquired further, hitting the nail on the head. ”Does Mommy know about it?”
Embarrassed, Louis answered sheepishly, ”I'm not sure. I haven't informed her yet.”
He was also curious if Taylor was aware of their true relationship.
If she knew, why would she choose to raise the child by herself instead of looking for him? If Taylor didn't know about it and he suddenly told her the truth, would she hate him even more?
At this moment, the test result still hadn't come out yet. However, Louis already considered Amy as his own flesh and blood.
Amy asked shyly, ”Will Mommy accept you?”
