Daniel’s POV

Today, I will be working directly with Stephanie in the social media team again. We would be discussing the promotional plans on how to make the Evergreen app displayed in the face of people worldwide.

Left to me, I would have looked for a better way to dodge this project, but for the sake of my sweat which I have invested in bringing this app, I would rather take anything from Stephanie than allow my pride make me lose my senses.

After Daniel had agreed that we keep our relati

  • Falling For My Father’s Son   Chapter 129: Save The Mother

    Daniel’s POV I leaned forward slightly, pressing my palms against my face as I tried to steady myself, but it was useless, everything inside me felt like it was falling apart piece by piece and I couldn’t stop it. A sharp breath left my lips as anger burned through me, but before I could spiral any further….. “Mr. Daniel?” The voice pulled me back abruptly. I looked up to see Annabel’s doctor standing in front of me, his expression was serious, like he already knew what he was about to say wouldn’t sit well with me. My heart dropped instantly. “What is it?” I asked in a rough voice. He hesitated for a second, then held out a clipboard toward me. “I need you to sign this,” he said carefully. I frowned slightly, confusion mixing with the dread already sitting heavy in my chest. “What is that?” I asked. His eyes softened just a little with a mixture of pity. “It’s the consent form,” he explained. “We need to know if you finally made your decision on who to prioritize.” “T

  • Falling For My Father’s Son   Chapter 128: My Mother’s Betrayal

    Daniel’s POV My mouth fell open wide. So wide that for a moment, I forgot how to breathe. “But… I thought you got over it,” I said slowly, my voice cracking under the weight of disbelief as I stared at my mother like I had never truly seen her before. “I thought you forgave us.” The silence that followed was suffocating. For a moment I was waiting for someone to appear and tell me that everything happening right now is a prank, but nothing. “No… you are getting it all wrong.” Mom’s voice came out shaky, trembling with guilt and fear as she stepped forward slightly, her hands clasped tightly together like she was trying to hold herself from falling apart completely. My eyes snapped to her instantly. “What are you even talking about?” I demanded, my voice rising, edged with frustration. Mom swallowed hard, her lips trembling before she forced herself to speak. “It all started that night…” she said, her voice barely steady. “The night Annabel visited us and I showed her your

  • Falling For My Father’s Son   Chapter 127: I thought I could Stop Her

    Daniel’s POV The moment we pulled into the hospital, I knew something was wrong. It wasn’t just the flashing red and blue lights that painted the entire building in chaos, or the swarm of officers stationed at every possible entry point, or even the loud crackle of radios echoing over overlapping voices. It was the feeling. That deep, gut-twisting instinct that something had already slipped through our fingers. I barely waited for the car to come to a full stop before I shoved the door open and jumped out from the driver’s seat, my shoes hitting the ground hard as my eyes scanned the entire environment in one sweep. There were police vehicles all over the building. Armed officers stationed in different angles, barricades already being set. People being pushed back. Everything looked controlled… but it didn’t feel controlled. It felt like they were too late. Then I pushed forward, my stride fast and urgent, cutting through the officers until I spotted the Inspector General.

  • Falling For My Father’s Son   Chapter 126: Video Coverage

    Daniel’s POV The manager’s office felt too small for the kind of tension sitting inside it. Everything about the space was polished, controlled, designed to give off a sense of order and luxury, yet none of that mattered now because the air itself felt heavy, thick with the kind of silence that comes before something breaks. I sat in the chair across from the desk, my elbows resting on my knees, my hands clasped tightly together as I stared at nothing in particular, my mind replaying the same moment over and over again. Annabel falling to the ground and how my hand caught her before she could reach. Her face as she lay unconscious on that hospital stretcher. It wouldn’t stop. “Play it again,” James said, his voice sharp as he paced back and forth like a man who couldn’t stand still even if his life depended on it. Cassian stood near the window, his arms folded, his jaw tight, his usual calm replaced with something far more rigid, something that barely held together. The man

  • Falling For My Father’s Son   Chapter 125: Tough Decision

    Daniel’s POV The drive to the hospital felt endless. Every second stretched, dragged into something unbearable as I held her in the back seat, her body limping against me, her head resting weakly on my arm while my other hand pressed against her stomach like that alone could keep everything together. “Stay with me,” I kept saying, over and over again, my voice rough, breaking in ways I didn’t even try to hide. “Annabel… open your eyes. Baby, look at me.” But she didn’t. Her breathing was shallow. And the fear that gripped my chest tightened with every passing second, squeezing the air out of me until it felt like I was the one suffocating. “Drive faster!” I barked, my voice snapping through the car so sharply it startled even me. “We’re almost there, sir!” Leo responded, his voice tense and urgent. By the time we reached the hospital, I was already moving before the car fully stopped. “Help!” I shouted, my voice echoing through the entrance as I carried her out, not caring

  • Falling For My Father’s Son   Chapter 124: Could She Know Something?

    Annabel’s POV “D….. Dan….” I started softly. “What is he doing here?” he muttered, his voice laced with anger that he wasn’t even trying to hide. I turned in his arms, placing my hands against his chest. “I invited him.” His expression darkened. “You what?” “I wanted….” I hesitated briefly, searching his eyes. “I wanted our baby to have a complete family. At least for this moment.” His jaw clenched. “Do you even know what he did?” He paced a bit. “How he broke the trust my mom had in him. We suffered!” A strand of tears dropped from his eyelid. I didn’t bother to stop him, because I believed that was what he needed. “I watched my mother cry herself to sleep every night… I was ridiculed at school, turned into a laughing stock because I had no father figure in my life.” He tried to hold back his sobs, but I was sure everyone heard him, his voice was completely broken. “I know,” I cut in gently. “I know, Daniel. I’m not asking you to forget…. just to let go. Not for him. For

You made me doubt myself until there was nothing left to save.” He tilted his head slightly, a bitter smile curving his lips. “Don’t sell lies to me, I was once a perfect husband until life happened to me, you shame
