Agnes' Awakening: From Zero to His Whole World novel Chapter 203

His expression was heavy. After letting out a long breath, he spoke, “Ms. Sinclair, I know you must be confused about why I acted so suddenly today and insisted on making you my goddaughter.

“It wasn’t only to help Monica take the fall. I… had another reason…”

Agnes’s brows drew together slightly, uncertainty and suspicion flickering across her face.

Calvin glanced at Sabrina. After she gave a small nod, he continued,

“Actually… I… knew your mother, Daisy.”

Agnes froze for a second before asking, “My mom? You… were friends with her?”

Calvin seemed hesitant, as if he didn’t know how to begin. He drew in a deep breath, forcing himself forward before saying,

“Yes. We… weren’t just friends. We were once… lovers.”

Agnes’s eyes widened in disbelief. Lovers?

As far as she could remember, her mother had always kept her distance from others. She had never once mentioned any man.

Noticing her reaction, Calvin looked like he had expected it.

His voice turned low, carrying a bitter weight.

“We loved each other deeply back then. We met in college and were together for four years.”

“We were always happy until we started talking about marriage. That’s when our families stepped in.

For the sake of family interests, my father forced me into an arranged marriage. He even sent people to harass Daisy again and again. My mother went as far as threatening her own life to pressure me.

“Daisy didn’t want to put me in that position, and she couldn’t bear to see me turn against my family because of her.

“In the end, she left without hesitation and disappeared completely. After that, I never saw her again….

“Not even… not even a goodbye…”

Calvin’s voice trembled. His eyes reddened, and even his body shook slightly.

The sudden revelation struck Agnes like a shock. Her mind went blank.

She had never imagined that her mother’s past love life had been so painful.

She and her mother had always relied on each other. Many men had pursued her mother before, but every one of them had been turned away.

Calvin paused, then looked at Agnes with a deep, meaningful gaze.

“When she left, she was carrying our child too…”

Agnes froze. Something connected in her mind, but she didn’t dare accept it. Her voice trembled as she asked, “Sir, what… what are you saying?”

Calvin’s eyes brimmed with tears. His whole body shook with emotion as he said, “Agnes…. you… are that child…”

Agnes felt a loud ringing in her head. Countless thoughts collided, leaving her unable to speak.

Her mother had always told her that her father had died from illness long ago..

Now, out of nowhere, this man appeared and claimed to be her father. She couldn’t process it at all.

Raymond was equally stunned. He quickly stepped beside Agnes and gently supported her.

Sabrina reached out, holding Agnes’s hand with care as she said, “Agnes, the last time your father came to our house, he told me everything.”

“At my birthday party, he was shocked the moment he saw you, because you look so much like your mother.

“And the bracelet on your wrist caught his attention immediately. It was the love token he once gave your mother.

“Later, he came to ask about you and told me everything that had happened between them.

“After hearing it, my heart felt so heavy. I felt sorry for both you and your mother.

“Your life has been difficult, and I hoped you could have some connection with your own family. Blood ties can’t truly be broken.

“So I gave your father a few strands of your hair, and he went to do a paternity test. It turns out you really are his daughter!

Sabrina paused, then gently patted Agnes’s arm and added softly, “I think your mother had her reasons for keeping this from you. She wanted you to live a simple and free life. She didn’t want you carrying too much on your shoulders.”

Calvin quickly spoke up, “Agnes, this is all my fault. I failed you and your mother. I let you suffer out there for so long.

“But from now on, I’ll make it right. I promise.”

Agnes was too shaken to respond. She didn’t know what to say. Her thoughts were in complete

chaos.

With a numb expression, she pushed Sabrina’s wheelchair and said quietly, “Sabrina, let’s go home.”

Calvin wanted to continue, but Sabrina shook her head slightly, signaling him not to press further.

Agnes had once been like unnoticed wild grass. Now, in an instant, she had become the daughter of the Hales in Grandridge.

She needed time to process everything.
