It was a mistake

At first Liam let out a mockery chuckle like he misunderstood her, "Wait what do you mean by that, mother? What's that supposed to mean?"

"Liam, this man here, is your biological father. Lance is your birth father."

Running his hands through his face, he laughed, "This is funny. Like seriously, it seems like a TNT and movie zone is display for a free show."

"Seems like." Narrowing his eyes at Mr Lance, Grayson scoffed, "So you had the guts to touch a woman whom–" Turning towards Lorena, he yelled, "Lorena! You were busy having an affair with my gateman behind my back? I knew Petra was right after stating this to me twenty-nine years ago."

Falling to her knees, she sobbed harder, "Am sorry my love, please forgive me." Reaching out to touch his feet but he drew himself away from her.

"Mom–damn! How could you? This–" Looking at the man, Liam clenched his hands into a tight fist after glancing at him from top to bottom, "What a ratchet man is addressed as my biological father."

Running his hands through his face, Grayson sighed. He could feel internal heat roaming inside of him. His light t-shirt felt like a thick coat covering him.

Fanning his face, he slumped helplessly on the couch. Clutching his hands on his hair, he groaned and shouted, "Arrghh! How could this be?"

Not talking about the money he spent and used in raising the prodigal son but the time and love he gave to him just like a real father would give to his very own son. He didn't gave his elder son Sebastian such an agape love neither did he gave to his daughter Nelly and ex wife Petra.

He sacrifice most of his belongings and things which cost him his life for Liam and Lorena but yet, this is what he got as a reward, why? How could life be this unfair to him?

The tears which had gathered in his eyes find its way to roll out after he lost control of holding them back. Twice was he hospitalized and not even once did Lorena and Liam come to visit.

The same woman he divorced twenty-three years ago because of Lorena, was now the woman who came to see him, fed him, and catered for him till he was discharged. How bad has he lost his real family.

Crawling on her knees, she rubbed her both hands together, "Grayson, please have sympathy on me, it wasn't my fault, am–"

Cutting her off, he pushed her away and yelled with fierceness in his cold eyes, "Who's fault was it then? Me? Lorena you cheated on me for countless times with my gateman and got pregnant for him as well. You hid the truth from me all these years, do you know how that hurts?"

"Holy Christopher!" Gritting his teeth at Mr Lance, Liam snapped, "Now you listen to me you dragonfly, God-damn, there's no fucking way am gonna accept you as my father." Turning towards Grayson, "Dad–"

"Hey, don't you dare! Don't you ever dare address me as your father. I knew it from the start that my blood was never in your veins. You've never behaved like me, not once in your life."

"Seriously, are you casting your remaining anger on me? Am I the main cause of this? Do–"

Cutting him off, Lorena yelled, "Liam, shut up! Just keep quiet for once in your life. We're talking about something serious here."

"Of course it sure does." Crossing his arms, he let out a wolfish smile, "Please, continue with the discussion and tell me how a ratchet man, a common gateman became my father." He retorted aggressively.

"I don't know," Clutching her hands on her hair, she sobbed, "I don't know where to start from."

"But you do know where you started from when you were busy–"

Looking at Mr Lance, Grayson rushed towards him and clutched his hands on his collar. Gritting his teeths, "Lance, you knew about these all these years and you kept it from me? How could you be this wicked after being nice to you. I trusted you as a prompt boss trusted his employee. I took you like a brother above the other employees and you betray me by touching a woman under my very own roof?"

"S–Sir, listen, please give me a chance to explain my–" Stopping midway when a punch from nowhere landed right on his face.

Mr Lance spatted his blood out and started coughing vigorously. Just then Collins and Laura both entered into the mansion after getting a call from one of the chefs that a tug of war was happening in the mansion.

Tossing him to the ground, Grayson kicked him by the stomach. Causing him to spat more thick bloods out.

"How dare you Lance!"

Widening their eyes in shock, Laura threw her both hands into her mouth. Seeing the man who was almost running out of life after gotten beaten to stupor, Collins ran towards Grayson, "Hey Gray, stop it now." Grabbing him by the waist, he pulled him away, "Stop it please."

"Collins, let go of me right now." Jerking his hands off, he pounced on Mr Lance and continued giving him the beating of his life.

Laura whom hated horrific and bloody scenes quickly covered her eyes and turned around.

"Grayson stop this madness right now." Pushing him away from Mr Lance, Collins frowned, "He is going to die, can't you see?"

Panting heavily with the world's greatest scowl on his face, Grayson yelled, "Yes let him die! Do I look like I care, Collins?"

"Calm down and explain things to me, what happened?" He placed his hands on his waste with a confused expression on his face.

Looking at the unconscious man lying on the floor, covered in blood, Grayson gritted his teeths and pointed at him, "This bastard is Liam's biological father."

Widening their eyes in shock, Collins and Laura snapped, "What!" Instantly, they turned towards Lorena whom was busy rubbing her hands together and pleading for forgiveness.

"Lorena, did my ears heard properly?"

In tears, she nodded, "Am sorry, you guys should plead for me. Grayson, please forgive me, it was a mistake."

"Mistakes? You–" He was about to thrash her with an upcoming slap in his lifted hand, but Collins quickly held him back.

"Hey, stop. She's in a condition you can't hit her."
