high ground and criticize me? Who do you think you are?”Seeing him laughing maniacally, Elspeth took a glance at the restroom at the side.Someone walked out right then and called out, “Arthur!”It was Arthur’s birth father, Yoel Blue.Arthur was taken aback as he looked at this familiar yet unfamiliar man in front of him, and he suddenly didn’t know what to say.Yoel and Arthur were way too alike!Yoel was what Arthur would look like in twenty years.Arthur was stunned and with a doubtful heart, he gingerly asked, “Are you my… father?”When Yoel heard that last word, he couldn’t hold back his emotions anymore and swiftly burst into tears. “Arthur! It’s me, your father!”Suddenly, Arthur glanced at Elspeth and immediately grew cautious.“Bullsh*t! Elspeth must have found a man who looks somewhat similar to me and lied about him being my father. You are not my father. My father died twenty years ago!”No one would be able to accept having a person who was supposed to have died twenty years ago suddenly appear in front of them.Seeing Arthur losing his calm, Elspeth spoke in a calmer voice. “No matter if you believe it or not, this man is your father. I have a copy of your DNA certificate here. If you don’t believe it, you can run the test again yourself. You’ll know whether he is your father or not.”Arthur took a deep breath and looked at the man in front of him, his eyes were a mix of both warmth and indifference. “Why are you back now of all times?”Yoel took a step forward to hold Arthur’s hand, but the younger man avoided him. Yoel lamented, “Arthur, I must have been possessed in the past. Your mother died in the car accident and I was seriously injured. As a last resort, I left you behind because I thought you could live a good life with the Winthrops. I didn’t think—”“You didn’t think I would fall apart with the Winthrops? And you came back because you can’t accept how things have turned out, right?”An unhesitant Arthur exposed Yoel when he guessed what the man was about to say.Yoel was slightly stunned as he nodded. “Arthur, our car accident back then was not caused by Mr. Winthrop. It was because I was running away from my debts. Mr. Winthrop had no choice but to drive and follow us…” Yoel remembered that the accident happened in the afternoon. Due to his owing a huge sum of money, he had no choice but to abscond with his family in a fit of desperation. Unexpectedly, he met Theodore on the road.Left with no other way, he drove away quickly. However, he forgot that this section of the road was a high-risk section and he hit a stone at the side.
