Chapter 144: Discovery of a Suspicious Person
Felix Zuck revealed a secret to Yusuf Zuck, a secret that Sara was not his biological daughter; he had never touched a woman in his life, including Yusuf’s mother—those years had merely been about sharing a household together.
His many years of indulging in alcohol and reckless gambling were, in fact, forms of self-destruction, because he didn’t know what else he could do with his life aside from these two things.
Yusuf initially thought he was joking, but as Felix spoke with solemnity and seriousness, Yusuf stopped smiling, and he felt like the hospital room was suffocating him.
Indeed, after hearing Felix’s account, Yusuf felt breathless. He felt the futility and sadness of Felix’s life, and he was also feeling lost about the family they had formed together.
Sara wasn’t actually Felix’s biological daughter either; she was a child he had found, and aside from Felix and his deceased mother, no third person knew about this secret.
"I’ve always been struggling with whether I should tell her about this secret." Felix looked at Yusuf in a questioning manner, hoping Yusuf would help him make a decision.
"Let’s wait and talk about it later," Yusuf shook his head and said, "No matter what, you are both my and Sara’s father." Yusuf patted Felix’s hand and continued, "Focus on getting better. You should know me; you can’t control what I decide to do, so I’ll handle future matters myself, and you don’t need to worry."
"Knock knock knock~" Just then, there was a knock on the hospital room door, and Lionel Parham walked in, frowning, with a delivery package in his hand.
Lionel spoke in a grave voice, "Brother, there’s a delivery for you..."
"Huh?" The mention of the delivery made Yusuf’s eyebrows shoot up. A delivery to his hospital room? What was this joke?
