Dominic stood up and said, “Come with me to the study.”
Does that mean they can’t talk about it in front of Rosalyn and Paul?
Paul and Rosalyn exchanged a glance before finally looking at Andrew.
Andrew didn’t move and asked, “Is there something that can’t be said in front of them?”
Dominic turned around and said coldly, “Listen first, then decide whether to tell them or not.”
Andrew’s beautiful eyebrows furrowed slightly as he hesitated for a few seconds before looking at Andrey. and asking, “Has Stella arrived?” Andrey respectfully replied, “The hospital is a bit far from here, but she’s on her way and should be here. soon.”
Andrew then turned his attention back to Rosalyn and carefully held her arm, asking, “Wife, does it hurt a lot?”
His eyes were full of tenderness, which warmed Rosalyn’s heart. “It’s already getting better. Don’t worry and go talk about it.”
Andrew doted on her and after patting her hair, he coldly instructed Andrey, “As soon as Stella arrives, have her treat my wife.”
Andrey nodded and Andrew got up to go to the study.
Dominic was already sitting on the sofa, looking around at his surroundings.
Andrew entered with a cold face and sat across from Dominic, saying, “Speak.”
Dominic was dissatisfied with Andrew’s attitude The story of Andrew’ father (1) towards him, but what could he do? This grandson was no longer under his control.
Dominic sighed heavily and said, “This is a long story that starts with your father…”
When Andrew’s father was mentioned, the expression in the old man’s eyes turned cold and gloomy, as if he had been burdened with heavy shackles, making him look suddenly older.
Andrew’s impression of his father was that of an alcoholic who was drunk and unconscious every day.
No matter how much Gloria beat or scolded him, the drunkard wouldn’t even look at her, let alone show any affection. “What does it matter to him?”
Dominic interjected heavily, “Of course it’s related to your father. When he was young, he met a woman in England whom he claimed to be his true love and wanted to marry. I allowed him to bring her back to see me. The young girl was nice, respectful to elders, knowledgeable and reasonable. When I asked about her background, she said she was from the The story of Andrew’ father (1) Sherwood family, so I agreed.”
Andrew frowned, “Then how did he end up marrying Gloria?”
Dominic said, “She wasn’t from the Sherwood family at all. She was a private daughter raised by Adam outside. How could I agree to let them be together?”
Andrew glanced at him, “So you made them break up?”
Dominic nodded, then shook his head, “I tried to force them to break up at first, but your father was stubborn and insisted on marrying her. It caused chaos in the Evans family. How could they agree to let a woman from the Clark family enter their door? I had no choice but to use the young girl’s life to threaten your father to marry Gloria.”
Dominic felt guilty towards Gloria, it all started when the Leinster family married Gloria to his son for a business alliance, and he did it to completely cut off Clark’s illegitimate daughter from his son’s mind. “On their wedding day, I drugged your father, not long after, Gloria became pregnant with your older brother, but your father was still obsessed with the woman from the Clark family. Gloria probably found out and was hurt, causing conflicts with your father throughout her pregnancy.”
“Your father said Gloria was too controlling and a bit neurotic, and wanted to divorce her. Gloria loved your father deeply and had admired him since childhood. She naturally disagreed with the divorce. Your father was forced to stay out late often and sometimes stayed abroad for half a year…”
“It’s also my fault for being too soft-hearted at the The story of Andrew’ father (2) time and not directly taking the girl’s life. I just sent her away. Now, the two of them met again abroad.
After experiencing Gloria’s violent temper as a wife, and encountering the woman he once loved but couldn’t have, your father went crazy and it was simply unstoppable.”
Speaking of this, the old man glanced at Andrew with a gloomy expression.
“He got the mistress pregnant. When Gloria found out, she went abroad and had the child aborted.
Your father refused and even used the child to blackmail Gloria into divorcing him. “
“What could I do? On one hand, my son was begging me on his knees, and on the other hand, it was my personally chosen daughter-in-law. I was in a difficult position, but to be honest, people tend to favor their own. So I advised Gloria that the child was innocent. Gloria agreed, but said that either the child should be given up for adoption or the whole Evans family should be informed and they would punish the Clark family woman.”
The story of Andrew’ father (2) “How could I let the Evans family know? So I agreed to give up the child for adoption, but your father refused and kept begging me on his knees. I had never seen him like that before, so I hesitated. Gloria saw my hesitation and directly took evidence of their affair and sent it to all the Evans family members.”
“Things escalated quickly. The Evans family forced me to execute the Clark family woman. I had no choice and was under too much pressure, so I didn’t care about your father’s life and had the Clark family woman kidnapped. When we were dealing with her, she cried and begged me to wait until she gave birth and she would fulfill her promise to commit suicide. I hesitated, but then G appeared and agreed to let the woman give birth.”
“Your father didn’t know about the deal between Gloria and Clark’s daughter. He thought we let her go and started treating Gloria kindly. Later, Gloria used some means to establish a relationship with your father. Not long after, she claimed to be pregnant.”
“No one knows that Gloria, who claimed to be pregnant, started plotting from here. She pretended. to be gentle and generous, and sent chicken soup to Clark’s daughter every day. When she met your father, she didn’t say anything, which was completely different from her previous quarrelsome, conflicting, and crazy behavior.”
“This made your father feel more and more guilty towards her, and Clark’s daughter also felt sorry for Gloria. Therefore, when Gloria proposed that Clark’s daughter leave your father after the child was born, Clark’s daughter agreed. Gloria promised that Sometimes, Dominic also regr… Clark’s daughter would not be in danger and she would send her away.”
“The two of them seemed to have become sisters, which confused me. Later, Clark’s daughter’s child was born, and Gloria bribed the doctor to tell your father that the child was stillborn. Your father was sad for a while because of this. Gloria promised Clark’s daughter that she would reunite with the child after Clark’s daughter left, as long as she didn’t tell your father about the child.”
“After having a child, Clark’s focus was no longer entirely on your father. Coupled with moral constraints, she decided to leave your father and Gloria’s marriage. After her body had recovered, the once committed Clark said some hurtful things to your father and did some things that made him give up on her completely. Your father thought that Clark didn’t want him and had betrayed him, so he let her go completely.”
“However, Gloria did not keep her promise. On the way to take the first wife to see her child, Gloria strangled her with a rope. Your father didn’t know and lived in the pain of being abandoned, drinking heavily every day. When you were about five years old, your father finally learned the truth and broke off his marriage with Gloria.”
“Gloria still didn’t want to divorce your father, so she came to me and asked me to persuade him. I went to see him and said some unpleasant things. Your father became angry and we had a big argument. That night, after drinking heavily, your father set himself on fire. Your older brother was still in the room…”
“Gloria rushed in to save them, regardless of her own safety. Her face and body were burned, and her disabled legs were broken by the burning beams. She did everything she could to save your older brother, but couldn’t save your father. He was completely buried in the fire…”
Thinking of the scene where the fire was blazing,
Dominic felt suffocated.
These tragedies were all caused by him. He was sorry to his eldest son Nate, sorry to the Clark family’s daughter, and also sorry to Gloria. Sometimes, he also regretted it.
He should have found a way to keep the identity of the Clark family’s daughter hidden and let them be together.
It wouldn’t have led to his son’s death, but it was too late for regrets.
Andrew, who had little empathy, didn’t have much feeling after hearing this. He only had one question, “What about Adam’s illegitimate daughter? Did she have a child?”
Sometimes, Dominic also regr… 2/4 Dominic slowly put away his regretful expression and looked at Andrew, who had no expression on his face, and sighed, “You’ve grown up and become an outstanding person, a pride of heaven.”
Andrew wasn’t interested in what he had become and only asked, “Where is he?”
It was natural to be curious about having a half-brother out of nowhere.
After staring at him for a while, Dominic revealed a long-hidden secret, “He’s sitting across from me.”
Andrew’s previously nonchalant face suddenly stiffened, “What did you say?”
Dominic put down his crossed legs and said seriously, “Gloria was never pregnant. She waited until the Clark family’s daughter gave birth and then sent that child back to the Leinster family. When it was time for her own delivery, she brought you over and said you were her own child. Even I was kept in the dark about Sometimes, Dominic also regr… it.”
If it weren’t for Carol accidentally seeing her mistreat you and becoming suspicious, telling me about it, I’m afraid no one would know this secret. When I asked her why she did it, she said it was to retaliate against your father and told me not to interfere in this matter.
You have half of the blood of the Clark family in you. Every time I see you, I am reminded of the Evans family who were killed by the Clark family. And, it was indeed me who forced your father to marry Gloria, who I owe an apology to. I let her take her emotions out on you.
No wonder Gloria treated him that way. It turns out he wasn’t even her biological child. But, “I did a DNA test…”
