The Promise of Happiness (Natalie and Samuel) novel Chapter 642

Chapter 642 Sudden Explosion

Marcus knew his body had been injected with a specialty drug. His strength and will were fading slowly. Nevertheless, he was stunned by the particular word that Clayton called him.

“Dad?” Marcus opened his mouth with difficulty. “Why did you call me Dad? I don’t have any child.”

“You are indeed my dad.” Clayton tried to explain, “My mom is Natalie, and she gave birth to my brother and me five years ago. We know you are not a good person, and you’ve done a lot of bad things. Still, you are our birth father!”

“This…”

“I’ve just met you today. And Xavian has not ever met you yet. We are reluctant to admit you as our father. But, we can’t just let you die here! We still hope to help you turn over a new leaf. We want to teach you some skills and find a decent job for you! That’s what we should do as your sons!”

As Clayton was speaking, droplets of tears fell out of his eyes.

“Dad, please hold on a little longer. I will ask Xavian to contact Mom right now! She is a good doctor. She will be able to cure you…”

Clayton wanted to leave, but Marcus grabbed his hand.

Marcus knew Yara had set him up. The drug in his body was powerful, and he feared he would not be able to make it.

Maybe he was touched by Clayton’s tears, or he knew he was about to die. He somehow found his conscience as he opened his mouth slowly. “Kid… I… I am not your father…”

Clayton furrowed his brows upon hearing that. He could not help but ask, “How could it be? After Mom knew we were investigating you, she strictly forbade us from doing that. She said you didn’t deserve to be our father, and she wanted us to give up on finding you!”

“Really…” Marcus tried his best to speak. “Natalie misunderstood… She thought I… I didn’t… You guys are not my sons…”

Marcus recalled the figure lit up a candle in the corner of the warehouse just now. He was aware the warehouse was loaded with flammable stuff.

Meanwhile, his sight was starting to fade.
