Chapter 560: Against Your Own Blood
[Note: This scene is a part of Chapters 521 and 522]
Kyle felt really sad when he thought about how everything turned out for Gracy. He was feeling sad that Gracy could not let things go and let Lana be. With the way she yelled at him, he knew she had no hope of changing herself. Anger, jealousy, and envy for Lana already ate her whole system.
He paused from walking and sighed. She was in the sa detention center as his father so Kyle walked into another room to see him.
He tilted his head down while he waited for him to arrive in the waiting room.
"Son…" Kyle heard the man's voice as the door opened, making him raise his head to look at him.
It was the first ti he called him 'son'. He was longing for this all his childhood and he finally got to experience it after twenty-eight years of his life.
He grew up without a father and only ca to know of him when he was twelve years old. His mother contacted Bill Grey informing the man about his existence when she found out that she was dying.
He looked at his father who had started complaining about how his lawyers were incapable and he was begging for his help as soon as he sat down.
"It's the first ti you called son. I never thought it would ever co out of your lips…" Kyle said softly.
"I'm sorry it took so long, son…"
"I'm reviewing your case with your other lawyers. We are doing our best to see if there's a way to get you out of the election ss. It would have been better if this was the only case filed against you but now there's another which I'm afraid will be hard to defend given all the evidence they have against you…" Kyle said.
"You can do it son. I believe in you. Do everything that you can to save your father. Please son I beg you… Once I get out I promise that we will leave this country and start a new life. A fresh start together…" Bill pleaded.
Kyle bit his lower lip. Bill Grey arrived when his mother was on her death bed and she finally introduced his father to him.
He was very happy that day but his mother soon died. Yes, he gained a father but sohow he felt empty. His father provided him everything he needed but kept him hidden from the world to save himself from the scandal of having a bastard son.
He would have been okay with it as long as his father would show him his love but unfortunately, his father only showered him with material things but not with the fatherly love he had longed for.
And now, his father seed to be acknowledging him as his son.
After a while of talking, Kyle ca out of the detention center with a heavy heart and a huge burden on his back.
"What are you going to do now Kyle?" he asked himself helplessly.
'Are you really going to help your father even after knowing that he is guilty?' his inner self condemned him as he walked towards his car at the parking lot.
His mind was a ss because he no longer knew how to proceed further knowing his father only had him now...
Instead of going ho, Kyle stopped by a resto-bar along the way. There he had his dinner and ordered so beer.
He heaved a sigh and whispered, "And here I am drinking alone…"
He took out his mobile phone and scrolled to Lana's number, but he didn't call her and just stared at the screen. He wanted to call Lana and explain everything to her but he didn't know how!
Kyle felt so frustrated that he ordered more alcohol. He was really going through a tough ti. He wanted to get drunk to feel numb.
After so ti, he heard a woman's voice, "Are you alright?"
He grinned when he recognized the woman's voice.
"Oh, it's you!… Would you like to join for a drink, Sarah?" he slurred which showed how drunk he was. He was feeling great to see Sarah. Now he would not be alone.
"You look like you're having a problem" Sarah comnted. Kyle gulped his shot straight before answering, "Yeah… I don't know what to do. Maybe you can help …"
Then, Kyle began talking…
"He finally acknowledged as his son and it felt so good… You know, I've been waiting for it all my life… For him to notice and accept as his son…"
Sarah gulped as she continued to listen. So Kyle was Bill Grey's son? No wonder Kyle introduced her to Bill as his girlfriend before. She knew that sothing was off that day. She had a feeling that Bill Grey and Kyle were not rely acquaintances.
Now that she knew, she could not help but feel sorry for Kyle…
"My father noticed and appreciated for the first ti Sarah! Are you also going to condemn for having a weak heart because I'm trying to help him sohow? For trying to show him that I'm a filial son who will stay by his side no matter what?" Kyle breathed.
Sarah heaved a long sigh and said, "I have no right to condemn you, Kyle… I already learned a good lesson about judging a person without understanding their situation first, so I avoid doing it now. Do what you think would make you feel at ease Kyle…"
Kyle got so drunk that night that Sarah had to accompany him outside. Kyle looked so pitiful that she couldn't abandon him and let himself drown in alcohol.
"That's enough Kyle," she stopped him from ordering more alcohol.
His cheeks were already burning and Sarah knew Kyle would black out soon, which he did the very next mont. She shook her head, looking at Kyle who passed out with his head on the table.
She asked for the waiter's help and brought him inside her car. She gave him another look and whispered, "Poor man. It must be tough for you, to do what is right knowing you will be against your own blood…"
