“My sister can no longer give birth because of you, she can no longer give birth!” Darcy’s expression turned from surprise to anger, with a fierce expression she said, “You betrayed my sister! My sister would not be in this state if you had not come up with a surrogate mother. She was beautiful and kind and… Look what happens because of you people!”

William slapped Darcy again. His face swelled even more. She trembled as she stroked her swollen cheek. The expression in her eyes changed from grim to vicious, she howled at William, “You dare to hit me again?”

William smiled cynically and gave Darcy an intimidating look, he said, “I want to kill you! If it wasn’t for the law, I’d kill you!”

“You…” Darcy took a step back.

She saw the hatred in William’s eyes and clenched her fist tightly until her fingernails dug into her palm. Still, his hatred for Sherry didn’t diminish one bit. If it wasn’t for that z0rra, his sister wouldn’t do such a crazy thing, leaving the country and marrying Reggie.

William lurched forward and grabbed Darcy’s hair. He pulled out a Swiss knife and pressed it against her neck. He said coldly, like a reaper taking a soul, “Don’t make me do this. I don’t care about the law. You have put me in danger and for that you will die. I will not let you go.”

The atmosphere in the silent room turned icy. The expression in William’s eyes was frightening and merciless, his usual kindness and gentleness nowhere to be seen.

“You want to kill me?” said Darcy as his voice trembled. She did her best to breathe, but seeing William’s grim expression, she knew he wasn’t joking.

“Yes!” said William in an icy, low voice, his speech lacking emotion. Then he slowly cut his neck with the knife and blood seeped out of the wound, “If I cut any deeper, your blood will start gushing out of your aorta. no one will be able to save you in time! not even the doctors!”

“Then kill me!” Darcy was intimidated, but she took a breath and screamed at William.

William pushed her away. Darcy fell to the ground and felt a sharp pain in her neck. She felt despondent as she wiped away tears, sobbing silently. William turned and walked away.

…

In the hospital ward.

Cohen rushed to the hospital, only to see John and Sherry in the room. He and Keegan burst into the room and he shouted, worried, “Sherry? Where’s Sherry? Where’s my Sherry?”

He was in as much of a hurry as if someone had died.

Sherry was still sleeping and was awakened by the noise. She opened her eyes and saw Cohen and Keegan. She was startled, “Mr. Sutton, why are you here?”

Cohen’s face paled. He was nervous to see Sherry trying to get up on the bed. He quickly walked over and said, “Sherry, are you okay, are you feeling all right?”

Sherry didn’t think they would come and felt warm inside, “Mr. Sutton, I’m fine. Don’t worry.”

Keegan was also showing signs of concern, “What happened?”

Sherry’s eyes bugged out as she heard the question. It was only her fault, yes…. Sigh! But life was like that, there was no ‘if only’.

“Damn it! Keegan, go take a look around. Kill the bastard if you have to. Shit, how dare he hurt someone close to me. He’s looking forward to getting his ass kicked!” howled Cohen harshly, he was being a bit loud.

“You’re Mr. Sutton, aren’t you?” John gave an unpleasant look. This man was Sherry’s boss but…wasn’t he worrying too much about her? “This is the hospital ward, you’re being a nuisance to the patient by being so loud!” Cohen turned his head and looked at John.

His expression turned stern and he said without hesitation, “Mr. Rowland, what happened, why did Sherry miscarry the baby? I definitely won’t let her child go.”

Sherry’s face turned pale as soon as she heard the word ‘miscarried’.

John became concerned for her well-being and reprimanded, “Cohen, stop it! Don’t mention it in front of Sherry, can’t you see the pain she’s already in?”.

Cohen noticed Sherry’s face paling. He quickly said in a low voice to appease Sherry, “Sherry, tell me what happened, I’ll fix things for you! Damn it, did William force you to help him look for Lucille? If Reggie didn’t tell me the truth, I will continue to believe that false story. Don’t worry, I’ll protect you, no one can intimidate you!”

“Father, please stop saying that, Reggie said it was an accident!” whispered Keegan.

His heart also fluttered at the sight of Sherry’s pale, blanched face. “Are you here to argue?” John tried to hold his temper, but he couldn’t stand Cohen any longer.

“Yes! I’m not just here to argue, I actually want to beat you!” Cohen shouted angrily. He looked like the bully he was when he was younger.

“Mr. Sutton, stop!” Sherry fretted.

Cohen stopped when he saw how worried Sherry was. He lowered his voice and said as he pointed to the door, “Let’s get out! John Rowland, come and tell me all about it outside.”

“Sure, why not!” John let out a chuckle. His face was grim. “I told you it was an accident. I don’t know why you won’t accept the truth, Cohen. Stop rubbing salt in the wound. You’re just here to muddle things up,” John said as he walked out of the room.

He was agitated. They moved away from the room so Sherry couldn’t hear their conversation. They began to argue, “Accident? How can I believe that? William obviously didn’t protect Sherry.”

“Will didn’t know. He only found out about the pregnancy after she miscarried. They were getting married next month. Mi4rda, who knew something like that would happen!”

John was frustrated. He was upset about not being able to see his grandson.

“It’s still your son’s fault. He didn’t protect Sherry, otherwise why would he let him meet Lucille? Damn it, Lucille was his son’s former love, he knew that William boy couldn’t keep his hands off his old flame! He’s not going near Sherry ever again, I forbid it! No way am I letting him bully Sherry like that again!” Cohen put his arms around his hips. Then he said provocatively to John, “He can marry Sherry in his dreams!”

“Who are you to not let Will be with Sherry?” John had never seen anyone more irrational than him.

He was also upset with his son for being involved with Lucille, but was disgusted to hear someone else criticizing his son.

“It’s because I’m his father!” shouted Cohen with wide eyes.

Sherry was worried about them arguing and so she had Keegan join her. And she listened to their conversation. Keegan was also confused, what had his adoptive father just said?

“Cohen, what blasphemy, are you going crazy missing your daughter?” John laughed.

“She is my daughter. I ran a DNA test on our hairs. I have proof. John, Sherry is my precious daughter, And I will kill anyone who bullies her!” said Cohen viciously.

That sent a shiver down John’s spine. He learned of Cohen’s past. He was the infamous leader of a gang in City H. He tried to straighten himself out and get back to leading a respectable life, but he still looked as atrocious as before.

“Are you going to kill my son then?” said John.

“I don’t care who it is. I’ll kill the person who bullies my daughter and makes her suffer.”

“Your daughter will be desperate if you kill my son!” scoffed John. “Control your bullying temper. Sherry won’t consider you her father if you keep acting like this.”

“None of your business.” Cohen frowned, “At the very least, your son should get down on his knees to her and beg her to forgive him, she wouldn’t let him go so easily.”

“Mr. Sutton, is that true?” Suddenly, they heard Sherry’s trembling voice coming from behind them.

“Of course!” replied Cohen without thinking.

Only then did he realize he had spoken too quickly. He quickly looked back, saw Sherry looking at him confused and surprised, “Sherry, why are you here?”.

“Mr. Sutton What… What did you say?” Sherry couldn’t believe her ears.

John saw Sherry and said, nervously, “Get back in the room Sherry, you shouldn’t be walking!”

“Yes, yes!” Cohen interjected, “Keegan, take her back to the room!”

Keegan carried her and took her back to the room. John and Cohen also entered the room. Sherry was in shock. She couldn’t believe it, what had Mr. Spencer just said?

“Mr. Sutton, can you repeat what you just said,” Sherry asked as Keegan pulled a blanket over her after putting her on the bed.

Cohen was a little worried. He was a gang leader and was never afraid of anything, but now he was terrified that Sherry wouldn’t accept him as her father.

He said in a trembling voice, “Sherry, I’m your father – I’m your biological father!”

Sherry gasped, what about Clark, wasn’t Clark her father? She shook her head in disbelief, “No, that’s not true!”

“Father, you should explain this to him later. He doesn’t look too good, I’m going to get the doctor!”.

“Cohen Sutton, you say that now!” Even John couldn’t look at him anymore, “What are you doing telling her such an unwieldy truth at a time like this? Think of her welfare! Think of the time, the place and the occasion.”

“John, I’m fine!” Sherry tried to force a smile. She was still in shock, but said, “I want to know the truth!”

Mr. Spencer said he was her real father. She wanted to know the truth. His mother had fainted the last time she saw him, so his words carried some weight. But he couldn’t accept the shocking truth. Suddenly, she thought of that time when Mr. Spencer asked her what would happen if the father she knew wasn’t her real father and her real father was out there somewhere.

She remembered telling him that would be a crazy story. He didn’t think it would really happen.

“Sherry, don’t think too much. Get some rest.” John walked over to her and stood in front of Cohen.

“No, let me take care of my daughter!” Cohen walked in front of John and sat down on the side of the bed.

John glared at him, “I’ll let you slide this time for Sherry’s sake, Cohen.”

John sat down in another chair in the room. Cohen didn’t bother to answer John. Then he said gently to Sherry, “Sherry, it was all my fault. I’ll tell you all about it when you feel better. What do you want to eat? I’ll get it for you.”

Sherry shook her head, “Mr. Sutton tell me the truth right now. You said you had done a DNA test.”

Cohen took a deep breath, and gave Sherry a conflicted look. She was regretful, angry at him and his big mouth, how could he screw up like that? He nodded his head and said, “Yes, you are my daughter. Sierra and I were lovers.”
