SWNOVELS Chapter 400 He Lost the Daughter but the Boy Was Saved
In the end, Fiona stayed in Japan. Joey held Sammy in her arms and bade him goodbye. What Joey didn't know was that Fiona slipped a folded paper into Allen's hand without her attention. Allen was suspicious and wanted to ask what it was, but Fiona beckoned him not to read it until he had left.
Allen put aside the paper, thinking that there was something Fiona didn't want to say to Joey face to face, and asked him to tell her.
When they got on the plane, Allen opened the piece of paper Fiona gave him while Martin was flying the plane and Joey was coaxing Sammy into sleep. It turned out to be a report form from a hospital, which showed that the DNA of Allen and Sammy had 99.9% in similarity!
What did that mean?
That meant Sammy was his son!
Allen was petrified. He was so shocked to learn the news.
He had never thought that Sammy would be his son, although he had asked Joey about Sammy's origin several times and Joey did not tell him. He thought that Sammy was Joey's adopted child, so Joey did not want to talk about it too much for fear that it would affect Sammy's mental development.
But when was Joey perceived? That night?
Four years ago, the night before Joey left, she suddenly became passionate and active. So, she must get pregnant that night. But he didn't know anything about it.
Allen turned to look at Joey and Sammy. His feelings were so complicated that they were beyond words. He now felt shocked, joyous, sad, angry, and guilty.
"Allen, what's wrong with you? Why are you looking at Sammy and me like that?" Joey blurted out when Allen looked at her so strangely.
Allen caressed Joey's face with one hand, and caressed Sammy's with the other. "I suddenly feel that Sammy looks like me. We look so alike," said Allen.
Yes, they did look alike, the small eyes, nose and mouth of Sammy. He had never thought that Sammy would be his son, so he didn't dwell on it. Now that he knew the truth, Allen felt that Sammy took after him so much, like Lillian who looked nearly identical to her mother, but the former was a child, and the latter was a grown-up.
Allen shook his head to shake off the thoughts. Because of Sammy, he thought of Lilian, the fake daughter. He lost Lilian, but he got Sammy, who was his real son. What a joke God had made on him!
Joey was shocked. "He is your son. Of course he looks like you," said Joey, taking a deep breath.
It had been four years, and now she could finally tell him the truth.
Martin, who was flying a plane in front, shook his hands when he heard the news, and the plane also made a slight move.
Allen looked at Joey for a long time, and then he smiled.
Although he had learned the truth from Fiona in advance, it was a different feeling to hear it from Joey. It meant that Joey finally was willing to be with him.
"Dear, thank you so much. I will perform my duty as a father and make Sammy the happiest child in the world."
Allen held Joey and Sammy tightly in his arms. He could hardly imagine how hard it must have been for Joey to live all these years as a single mom.
"Allen. You believe me that easily? Without the slightest doubt?"
Joey was shocked to see Allan believe her so firmly. It was a big event for them to get reunion. She thought she had to explain to Allen in details before she could convince Allan to accept the fact, but she didn't expect it to go so smoothly.
Allen took out the DNA report that Fiona had slipped to him. "Fiona gave it to me before I got on the plane," he said. "And even without this paper, I will believe whatever you say as I'd promised you." Joey's tears rolled down her face.
She cried because of Fiona's
consideration. Even when they were set apart, he was still thinking that Joey might encounter troubles in convincing Allan that Sammy was his child. Fiona was so thoughtfully that he even had Sammy and Allen's DNA rested in advance.
Another reason she cried was that with Allen's unconditional trust and love, her life was worth living. Although there were always bad and outrageous people around her, she would feel her life was meaningful as long as there were people who supported her by her side at all times.
