Love from My Dominant Boss

Chapter 479 Only When They Need Something

“I’m fine. I just got a little too emotional, that’s all. I’m feeling much better now,” Dad said, sounding rather weak as he stared at me with his face all pale.

Seeing him in such a state only made me feel even worse. Tears rolled down my cheeks, and my eyes were filled with pain as I yelled at him, “You nearly scared me to death, Dad! What will Mom and I do if something were to happen to you?”

While he was inside the emergency room, I feared that the doctors would come out and tell me that they failed to save him.

Dad had always been a man of few words. but that wasn’t the case this time. After hearing what I said, he forced a smile at me and said with a serious expression, “Anna, if you truly want me to be fine, then help your brother out. He really can’t afford to go to prison. Your mom and I are very old now. What will we do if your brother gets locked up in prison?”

Just like that, Dad shifted the topic of the conversation back toward Steven. Honestly, it was quite difficult for me to refuse his request, especially when I saw the state he was in. I knew he wanted to get Steven out of prison, but there was nothing much I could do about that.

Unable to face that pleading look in his eyes, I averted my gaze as I replied, “Please stop forcing me, Dad! Steven is my brother! Do you think I’d let him go to prison if I had a choice?”

Do they think I’m not worried about Steven? He’s my freaking brother! While our relationship may not have been the most pleasant, we are still family, and blood is thicker than water! As much as I dislike him, I wouldn’t just sit by and watch as he gets locked up in prison!

“Look at the state I’m in, Anna! Are you still not going to help your brother out? Do you want to watch your parents die? How will your mom and I live on if your brother gets sent to prison?” Dad asked while staring at me in agony.

This was the first time I had ever seen Dad shed a tear. Being his daughter, it hurt me deeply to see him cry.

With my eyes all reddened, I quickly looked the other way. I had to avoid his gaze as I feared I would end up making promises I couldn’t keep.

“I’m sorry, Dad. There really is nothing I can do about this…” I said while sobbing.
