Mommy Alert! The CEO Daddy Won't Stop Courting-Chapter 384: Child, I am Daddy...
Saying this, she pulled out a gun.
The cold muzzle pointed straight at Muir’s head, "Muir, even if today I’m doomed, even if it means death, I will surely take you with me! In life, you are my husband, in death, you remain my husband! Even in the netherworld, Una shall never have you!"
As she spoke, Lisa was about to pull the trigger.
Bang! Two gunshots rang out simultaneously...
As it turned out, when Lisa pointed the gun at Muir, Tannis led a large army rushing in.
Seeing Lisa holding a gun at Muir, Simon immediately fired mercilessly, hitting Lisa’s wrist.
Injured, Lisa’s hand released the gun, and it fell to the ground.
The bullet she fired veered off its original course because of this.
After firing, Simon quickly stepped forward and restrained Lisa...
Tannis walked in from outside the palace, looking at Muir with excitement, "Muir, are you alright? Luckily, I wasn’t too late."
Muir watched as Tannis and Simon led a grand procession into the palace.
Behind Tannis, Adrian Davies held the veiled Melody Parker as they entered.
They walked in step by step, stopping not far from Muir.
Adrian looked at Muir, his voice cold, his demeanor respectful, "King, I trust you have been well, I am Adrian Davies."
Muir looked at this imposing man with surprise.
Adrian Davies?
Then this person beside him... could it be his and Amanda’s daughter?
He raised his eyes, staring intently at the veiled woman.
Her eyes were beautiful. As he gazed into them, he began to tremble all over, though they seemed to lose focus.
At this moment, Tannis excitedly pulled Melody Parker, saying, "Muir, look who she is?"
Muir slowly stepped closer, gently lifting Melody Parker’s veil.
Under the veil appeared a face that was seventy percent similar to Una’s, immediately revealing itself to Muir.
Seeing this face confirmed his thoughts, and Muir started trembling all over.
"Amanda..." a deeply emotional voice filled with yearning escaped Muir’s lips.
He knew full well that the woman before him couldn’t possibly be his Amanda, but his and Amanda’s daughter. Yet, seeing this face that resembled Amanda by seventy percent, he couldn’t help but think of the young Amanda.
Back then, Amanda was innocent and romantic, instantly capturing his heart.
Amanda got to know, meet, and love him during this flower-spring age.
She bore his child, endured Lisa’s malicious treatment, watched as her adoptive parents died, and begged Tannis to take her away at around this age.
Back then, Amanda must have been scared, right?
He failed to protect her; did she ever blame him? Did she ever regret knowing him?...
Melody Parker’s eyes may not see, but her sensitivity was heightened.
She could clearly hear Muir calling her mother’s name, hear the tremble in his voice, sense his great excitement.
Melody Parker stood silently, quietly in place.
Inside, she felt a sudden surge of pain...
Was this man standing before her truly her biological father?
After all these years, having never known family, she finally met her biological father.
Though she couldn’t see, she felt his presence, sensed his longing for her mother and his remorse...
Otherwise, he wouldn’t be calling out "Amanda" while looking at her!
Muir’s dark eyes were misty with tears.
His blurry eyes fixed on Melody Parker, trying to reach out to grasp her hand, but hesitated in fear, unable to follow through.
He feared Melody Parker resenting him, blaming him for not taking care of her all these years, afraid she wouldn’t accept him as her father.
She had every right to resent him. After all, it was his negligence, his misjudgment, that ruined what should have been a happy family, causing Amanda to wander and die abroad while she suffered so much.
She could resent him, could hate him, as long as she wouldn’t ignore or deny him.
Melody Parker’s unfocused eyes looked towards Muir.
Unable to see the person before her, she stood there quietly.
Finally, Muir’s trembling hands reached out, gripping Melody Parker’s hand.
Melody Parker did not pull away, letting Muir hold on.
As his warm large hand gripped her small one, Muir’s tears could no longer be held back, rushing out from his eyes.
With his broad and powerful yet trembling hands tightly holding Melody Parker’s, his voice quivered with age, "Child, I am your father, I am deeply sorry to you, and to your mother..."
Muir didn’t continue with the rest of the words.
He didn’t know how to continue or dared not ask himself aloud.
Melody Parker’s lifeless eyes began to mist over.
She directed her gaze towards Muir’s direction and finally spoke in a cool voice, "King, my name is Melody Parker."
Melody Parker told herself countless times not to easily accept him.
There were still many things within her that needed untangling.
With a rumble,
Muir’s mind went blank. She called him "King," she didn’t want to acknowledge him.
Why should she?
He didn’t spend a single day raising her; why would she recognize him?
Muir gently released her hand, "Alright, alright, Melody... it’s okay as long as you’re back, as long as you’re back."
The whole scene was witnessed by Lisa.
From the moment Melody Parker and Adrian Davies stepped in, she saw them.
So this blind woman, Adrian Davies’s wife, was truly Una’s daughter!
Was this retribution?
Was it that wretch Una taking revenge on her?
She killed Una’s adoptive parents, kept chasing her out of Whitehill, and now Una let her daughter avenge her by causing Ellie’s death and taking everything belonging to her?
No, impossible!
How could she possibly be content with that?
She looked at Melody Parker with eyes red with fury, screaming hoarsely, "Bitch..."
Yet, just as she uttered a sound, her mouth was immediately covered.
Adrian’s gaze was cold as he looked at Lisa, ordering sternly, "Throw her into the dungeons, awaiting the King’s judgment."
This act of taking charge did not provoke any discontent but rather instilled confidence in everyone present.
Without hesitation, Simon hauled the tied-up Lisa and carried her out.
While being completely helpless, Lisa could only watch Melody Parker and Muir with utmost hatred, unable to do or say anything.
Outside the chamber, Simon tossed Lisa to the ground as if discarding garbage, commanding the nearby guard, "Throw this criminal into the dungeon!"
"Yes!" replied the guard, picking Lisa up from the ground and tossed her into the dungeon.
