Lucas seemed to be a lot more agitated than I was. He slammed on the brakes all of a sudden, causing the car to swerve around before crashing into a car parked on the roadside.
He hit his head when he jumped from the shock and sat back down with a frown. He asked anxiously, “So… You’re saying that you’re not Nathan’s daughter?”
I found it strange the way he was so anxious and shocked about it. Even I didn’t overreact to that extent.
The other driver got out of his car and shouted furiously at Lucas, “Hey, what the hell are you doing? Look at the damage you’ve done to my car! You think you’re so great just because you’re rich and drive a Porsche? Huh? You think that gives you the right to just ram into other people’s cars?”
Lucas couldn’t even be bothered to deal with him and simply shoved a wad of cash into his hand as he said, “Here! Now, get lost!”
Noticing that Lucas was a rich guy, the driver tried to ask him for more money. “You think this is enough? This car is brand new and I’ve only just driven it once! Pay up…”
Lucas cut him off by shooting him a cold glare. The driver was so terrified that he shut up and ran off immediately.
Lucas then turned around to face me. “Are you saying that Nathan isn’t your father? Did he admit to it himself?”
“Yeah, that’s right. Why are you so worked up about it, Lucas? Don’t tell me you’re my long-lost brother or something?” I couldn’t help but crack a joke when I saw how anxious he was.
Realizing he had lost his composure, Lucas gave me a thoughtful look and said, “Who knows? Maybe you really are my long-lost cousin!”
“Pfft… As if!” I exclaimed with a sigh. There’s no way I’m Mark’s daughter! He doesn’t seem like the type who would let someone else raise his own child for him! But really… Who is my biological father? That was when I felt a sudden urge to find out more about it and to see my mom.
