“Sorry!!! This all happened because Liam and William are friends and that child was born at the wrong time.”

Peter’s throat felt tight. After a long while, he finally let go of the hands that embraced Lucille, his expression was full of pain and determination.

“Lucille, you should get out of here first! I’ll talk to Darcy.” He spoke.

Lucille knew better than to say anything else! Finally she turned and left as well. Peter pulled out his lighter and burned the last pages of the diary in front of Darcy’s gravestone. Let the truth go up in smoke, he would never give up even if he died!

The Rowland Family drawing room.

When William appeared with Liam and Sarah, he did it on purpose: “Can’t they identify him as their son first? I’m afraid Sherry won’t be able to take it on such short notice. If she knows I’ve lost the child, she’ll be very upset, Sarah, do you understand?”.

Sarah sat in the car with tears streaming down her face, her emotions right now were incredibly complicated. She felt both the joy of being about to be reunited with her son, and the bitterness of having lost her son all those years ago.

The feeling of reliving and the anticipation of regaining what was lost before were mixed together, the feeling of nervousness was there as well. How would the child accept her? Besides, what should they do once Sherry knew?

When they arrived, Sammy and Sherry were watching TV in the living room, Sherry was watching cartoons with Sammy, while Dan was accompanying John to play golf and was not home.

“Sarah, Liam, you must promise me what is best for Sammy, he may not be able to accept the truth as he is still young, so you must familiarize yourself with him before you tell him the truth, do you understand?” William explained once again.

“Will, I understand!” Sarah assured him.

“Sarah, you can’t cry! When you cry, Sammy will freak out, He’s too introverted!” said Liam, but in his heart he was already trembling.

Sammy was his son, The son he never knew existed!

“Yes! I know!”

However, his eyes were still reddening as he spoke. When the three people entered the living room, they saw that Sammy was lying on top of Sherry’s legs while watching cartoons, laughing, “Mommy, this is so funny, Don’t you think the cat is stupid? Hahahahaha…”

“Yes, the cat is very stupid while the little mouse is so cute.” Sherry caressed his little face and giggled with joy too.

“Sammy is so cute too! Mommy really likes Sammy!”

“Sammy likes Mommy too!” Sammy was still laughing, he looked so happy.

Three people watching this scene had complicated feelings in their hearts. William’s heart was even more complicated, where was his son? If Sammy was Liam and Sarah’s son, where was his and Sherry’s son? The one they had raised all these years was not his own son, how could he be so careless?

After everything that had happened, he finally understood one thing that was about the DNA test. His son was to be exchanged after the DNA test was done.

The DNA test was done on the child she held in her arms when he was born on the first day. She had also seen that the doctor took her son’s blood sample with her own eyes and was the blood sample to do the test personally, nothing could go wrong here.

It was also confirmed that the child was his own blood, and his father had also seen the results. However, he did not expect that in the end, the child he had raised was not his own. Perhaps at the time he had trusted Darcy too much, which led to these kinds of results.

He felt embarrassed when confronted by Sherry. Liam and Sarah’s feelings at that moment were impossible to put into words.

Liam had not expected William’s child to be his. Over the years, he saw this child from time to time. He really liked his cute little face and it seemed to him that his face looked familiar.

When she saw Sammy again, she noticed that Sammy’s face was similar to Sarah’s face. Sherry had the feeling that someone was behind her, and when she turned around and saw him, she was very surprised, “Oh, Liam, Sarah, why are you here? Sammy, get up and say hello.”

Sammy heard her and turned around. He saw Mr. Brooks and Dad, there was also a pretty girl next to them.

He got off the couch, “Mr. Brooks, it’s been a long time since you’ve seen me!”.

“Uh! Sammy…” Liam choked before the words came out.

When he took one look at that little face, his heart filled with mixed feelings. The child before him was his own flesh and blood. Oh, my God, what was he missing?

“Mr. Brooks?” Sammy had run to him, hugging Liam’s leg as he lifted his little face. “Mr. Brooks, the superhero toy you helped me put together last time broke, can you help me put it back together?”

Liam choked and could only reply, “Okay! Okay.”

The boy didn’t know what was going on, he was just happily and innocently saying what was in his heart. Sarah didn’t hold back anymore. She ran to Sammy and hugged him. She buried her whole face in Sammy’s arms and hugged him tightly.

Sarah didn’t dare to cry. So she bit her lips to keep from crying. However, her shaking shoulders still gave away her emotions.

Sammy was dumbfounded. Sherry was puzzled. She turned to give William a look and saw that his face was unusually pale, even his eyes were filled with some kind of anxiety.

Sherry reached over and gently tugged on William’s arm as she felt puzzled.

“William, what happened to Sarah and Liam?” William came to his senses, seeing Sherry’s look of concern, his guilt deepened and he felt even more sorry for her. He took Sherry’s hand.

“Sherry, will you go up to the room and wait for me? I have something to tell you.”

Sherry didn’t understand why he wanted her to come up to the room, it didn’t seem like the way to treat guests.

“Be a good girl! I have something to tell you, you should go up first!” William responded.

Finally.

Sherry was still nodding and listening. However, when she saw that Liam and Sarah looked harried, surprised and regretful, that kind of expression on their faces was really too complicated.

Although he didn’t know why they were like that, he could sense that something was wrong. Sammy was hugged by Sarah a little too tightly so he was a little scared for a moment and couldn’t help but cry out, “Mom…”

“Sammy!” As soon as he yelled, Sherry, who was on her way up the stairs, stopped and turned back towards them.

Sammy tried to pull away from Sarah with his little hands. “Sarah, you’re hurting me with your hug!” Sarah realized what was happening and immediately let go of his hand.

Sammy lunged to Sherry’s side and wrapped her arms around her waist. “Mommy, why is Sarah crying?”

When Sarah realized she wasn’t hugging Sammy, you could see the pain through her eyes, and her expression looked grim. Only then did Sherry see that Sarah’s face was streaked with tear marks.

“What, what’s going on?” a surge of uneasiness gripped Sherry’s heart.

Liam was distressed to see Sammy’s frightened look. “Sammy, come over here beside me!” After Sammy heard and saw that it was Liam calling him, he stopped being afraid.

The truth was he wasn’t afraid of Sarah, it was just that this girl’s crying after hugging him made him feel a little nervous.

Sammy walked to the front of Liam. Since Liam was a man after all, he knew the boy couldn’t be hurt at that moment.

So he dismissed the uneasiness he felt in his heart and said softly, “Sammy, she was so happy because she saw you so handsome and cute, that’s why she was so excited. Don’t be afraid, Sammy, I’ll get Sarah to help you pretend you’re a superhero, okay?”

Sammy turned around and looked at William and Sherry, “Dad, Mom, can Sammy go to the toy room with them?”

William walked over to Sherry, took her by the hand and said to Sammy. “Go ahead!”

“William…”

“Let’s go upstairs!” William interrupted her, exchanged a look with Liam, took Sherry’s hand and went upstairs.

In the room.

“William, what’s going on, why do I feel like there’s something wrong between Liam and Sarah, why was Sarah crying while hugging Sammy, can you tell me what’s going on?”

William felt his feelings curl up, he felt so sad as if he was about to suffocate.

“Sherry… actually Sammy…”

“Did something happen to Sammy?” Sherry lifted her head to give him a look. When their eyes met, she could see the pain through his eyes. She could also see the sadness in his eyes of wanting to say something but not being able to. “William, are you hiding something from me?”

She felt her voice become a little shrill.

Liam shook his head.

“Sherry, I’m not hiding anything from you, I just don’t know how to tell you. I feel like I’ve wronged you, and it’s all my fault, it’s hard for me to say it out loud.”

However, after hearing what he had said, Sherry just shook her head and laughed.

“What’s so hard for you to say?”

“Sherry, do you promise to be quiet no matter what you hear?” he asked cautiously.

“Did you have an affair?” she asked instead of answering.

William froze.

“What makes you think that?”

“So you and Lucille are getting back together?” She asked again.

“Sherry?” William gaped. “How could he do that? I’ll never have an affair, as long as I’m alive, You’re the only woman I want!”

“So that’s it then, is there anything else I can’t handle?” She asked, unable to really think of anything.

“Sherry, I’m telling you, Sammy may not, in fact, be our son!” He looked at her and threw his hands on her shoulders, worried that she might faint at the news.

Sherry gave him a silent look and, after a while, shook her head.

“This joke is not funny at all, please don’t joke with me, okay?”

“Sherry, this isn’t a joke, it’s the truth!” William held her by the shoulders tightly. “Here’s what happened…”

When William finished telling Sherry the whole thing, Sherry remained silent. She felt like something had been pulled out of her heart.

If Sammy wasn’t her son….

She was so shocked that her hands covered her little mouth and her big eyes filled with tears…. Her body felt like a beautiful butterfly that had lost its wings.

Helplessly, she glanced at William with a pale face. She felt her consciousness receding further and further away, her heart ached violently, she wanted to cry, but could not. More and more tears were gathering in front of her eyes, and she felt her vision blurring.

She looked at him, bit her lip and asked, “Why is this happening, where is my son, William, I thought the boy would at least be happy with his father, even without mom around you can give him happiness, but our son is nowhere, what do you want me to do? No, I don’t believe this is true, I won’t believe it!”

How could Sherry accept it, how could she believe it?
