Chapter 1186 Bound by Fate
My dad hung his head low. Since he returned yesterday, his spirits seemed deflated, and he appeared burdened with heavy thoughts. It made me feel very uneasy.I understood his emotions. After all, this was connected to everything from his past. Most importantly, it revealed the fact that they weren't my biological parents. I knew they wouldn't want to lose me, their only daughter.I was their everything.At this moment, I fully understood why my mom had sighed when they sold the house in the small town. She must have been worried they would be left with nothing and felt a sense of insecurity.But I never expected this to happen so quickly.When Atlas saw how depressed my dad was, he calmly reassured him. "Don’t worry too much about it, Dad. Letting him go back was part of my strategy to buy time. Many clues are connected to him. We let him go as part of the long game."My dad remained silent. The notebook seemed to be the key to unlocking this conversation.We waited for what se
Chapter 1187 Death Without Anyone Knowing
My heart ached as I lifted my eyes to see my father in front of me, who seemed both familiar and unfamiliar."I had no family left, so all I could do was study. I devoted all my time to my studies, excelling in both middle and high school. I was a model student and was admitted to the prestigious University of Ithaca. Chemistry was my favorite subject, and later, I was admitted to a top-ranking university in Nocturnia, becoming one of the best there," my dad said slowly."My name is Oscar Parson. My real name is Jasper Paul, but I changed my surname to Parson to honor the ones who took care of me." My dad revealed his name."So, you’re Oscar Parson? But what about Lucas Paul?" Atlas interjected, looking at my father in disbelief.My dad looked at Atlas in shock. "How did you know?""I happened to see some information about Oscar Parson from a prestigious Nocturnia university. I also got the information about Lucas Paul from the Bermuda secret files," Atlas said calmly.I saw my d
Chapter 1188 All Unfortunate Souls
Even though it had been twenty years, my dad appeared utterly mired in the shame of that moment as he spoke. It was clear how deeply the experiences of that period had impacted him and affected his self-esteem."I lost my mind back then. I tried to drive Moira away, yelling at her and smashing things. But she still took care of me until my injuries healed, even though it exhausted all her savings. I couldn't afford the high medical expenses and had to leave the hospital even though I hadn't fully recovered," my dad said.My mom covered her face beside me, her shoulders shaking uncontrollably."Moira was afraid I would be traumatized when I returned to school, or that I would become depressed and have suicidal thoughts because I hadn't fully recovered. She took me back to her house. Moira was by my side the entire month, taking painstaking care of me," my dad continued."After I got beat up, that wealthy girl never got in touch with me again. I don’t know if she just thought it was
Chapter 1189 A Custom-Made Trap
After listening to my mom, my dad sighed deeply. "I gradually started depending on your mom. But when it rains, it pours. We only stayed in that house for a month.""Why?" I asked."Your mom didn't have time to work to support us while taking care of me. Plus, she had spent all her money while I was in the hospital, so the landlord kicked us out."That was the cruel reality. Your mother and I sat side by side with our luggage on the streets of Nocturnia that evening. At that moment, I vowed to myself then and there that I would become wealthy, well-known, and provide Moira with a secure home so she wouldn't regret saving me."My hand subconsciously tightened around Atlas's hand, imagining the embarrassment they must have felt.Atlas gripped my hand solidly to show that he recognized how I was feeling."Where did you go then?" I asked weakly.I could guess how easy it would be to go astray in such a situation.My dad shook his head, looking at me and Atlas. "When someone hits ro
Chapter 1190 There's Something Fishy Here
Suddenly, I noticed a hint of hopelessness in his gaze."Our daughter was nine years old at that point. My "skills" allowed us to live a prosperous and carefree life. When the city where I was studying, Norton, called me back to the country, I didn't dare go back. I knew deep down that what I did was contradictory to my homeland. I had no way back, no way home!"I glanced at Atlas. He had made an irreparable mistake.It sent shivers down my spine.No wonder he had connections with Bermuda. And they had been relentless in their pursuit.My dad looked at us. "One day, I finally realized that I had led my family to the edge of a cliff. I wanted to hit the brakes. I changed my name to 'Tony,' which was the mysterious Tony Paul from Bermuda, and Moira changed her name to 'Yunia'."Then, to be more discreet, we moved the whole family to a remote and quiet town, wanting to live incognito and get away from the harassment of those people," My dad looked helpless, and I could imagine the u
Chapter 1191 Fleeing for Life
My mom immediately answered, "Yes, I remember clearly, he was very tall and skinny. I heard him say, 'Send someone to watch over this girl! She knows me, and if she wakes up, it'll be over. That brat has been looking for her and he doesn’t know if she's still alive or dead.’"I was anxious. I knew that the little girl she described was me. These were fragments of memories I hadn't erased.The tall and skinny man she mentioned should be the man who took me away after I was thrown out of the car.I was about to say his name, but my mom continued, "The most crucial thing is, he also said, 'if it doesn't work out, we can only give her a sleeping injection after checking her injuries and take her away! Find a place to hide her, but we must not let any word slip out!'"I involuntarily looked at Atlas, only to see his face darken significantly.Atlas lowered his gaze to me, and we said in unison, "Clark Norton!"My dad continued, "When Moira returned from the hospital to tell me about t
Chapter 1192 Unique
My dad lowered his head and said, "But we were truly at our wits' end. She was trying every possible way to escape. However, we can't bear to let her go because she's still so young. “Also, since she's too clever, we're afraid of her exposing our whereabouts. We know full well that once the people from Navi's group find our trail, it's game over for both of us.""She also depended on us during these two years of escape, much like our daughter did before. She got away once, and it took us two whole days to track her down. It was really difficult to get her back because she was huddled with other beggars."I felt shivers running down my spine as I listened to my dad's story.“We were at our wits' end, and after hearing people say that hypnosis can erase memories, we made up our minds. To prevent her from running away, we could only find a hypnotist to seal her memories. After that, she became much more obedient. She never mentioned finding her friend again!""The friend she was loo
Chapter 1193 A Crafty Escape Plan
"That means Clark Norton had collusion with him!" Atlas analyzed."And me? I was still smugly thinking that I had completely escaped!" My dad chuckled, "Now looking back, I've never really escaped his clutches!""So, when you saw me pursuing Chloe, you already knew who I was?" Atlas looked at my dad and asked."I didn't know! I didn't even know who Rory White was, or how he ended up in Navi's hands later! But this time, Navi told me who Rory White was! We had a candid chat all night."“Why did he tell you these things?” I looked at Atlas and asked, "In theory, he shouldn't have revealed Rory White.""I used to only know that Rory White was Chloe's biological father! This was something we knew when we stole her from those villains. It was also one of the reasons we decided to erase her memories."Because we knew in our hearts that our daughter was probably no longer in this world, hence we cherished her even more. We simply didn't want to leave her!"But I didn't know how Navi ma
