All Chapters of Dad's Murderer Begged Me to Save Him: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

The application forms were arranged according to the highest sum of money paid, and Steve Chapman’s name appeared at the top because my biological mother, Irina Cress, paid a large amount of money to place him there.However, I struck his name off without hesitation. That man had stolen my father’s heart and used it for years. It was time for him to return it.My assistant, Lewis Henderson, took the list from me and looked shocked. “Leo, Cress Industries pledged 1 billion dollars in total to our research. That would be 100 million dollars every year for 10 years. If we take this job, we do not need to worry about our budget, and we can save double the lives for free every year…”I stared at Lewis, and his voice faded.It had been 10 years since my father passed. I glanced at the picture on my table. It used to be a happy portrait of a family of three, but I had torn it in half. Only the picture of a man remained, smiling happily with a baby in his arms.“I had my own plans for get

Three hours passed, and Irina did not see me in the surgery room. Her revenge arrived swiftly. Law enforcement officers barged into my office with unfriendly expressions.“Someone in your office reported you for embezzling and withholding funds. Please come with us to assist with the investigation.”Lewis spoke before I could say anything. “That’s impossible!” His eyes widened in disbelief, and he tried to stop them. “You must have made a mistake. Anyone but Leo would do something like that.”He was almost crying from panic. “Leo was the one who sold his house to fund the research a few years ago when we lacked funds. You have no idea how he managed to sign that VAM agreement. He had to mortgage his dad’s inheritance…”“That is enough, Lewis,” I said in a low voice.Lewis stopped talking, but his body trembled with anger.I looked around and saw several of my team members lower their heads, afraid to meet my eyes. I had picked them myself, and they had worked with me since the be

“This is the police. Stay down.”Everyone crouched with their hands above their heads except for Irina. She refused to crouch and roared at the officers barging in. “Get out. This is my private hospital, and we have an ongoing surgery. This isn’t a place you can enter as you like.“Who gave you permission to do this?”Steve’s eyes widened in fear, but he kept the same attitude as Irina. “Do you know who she is? Can you bear the consequences of affecting my condition? Who is your superior? Get him out here. We want to speak to him.”The leading police officer smiled. “I know she is Irina Cress.”Irina continued angrily. “If you know who I am, you should leave. Even your superiors show courtesy when I’m around. Who do you think you are to—”Before she finished, handcuffs were placed on her wrists. The officer smiled innocently. “We’re here to arrest you, Madam Cress. Please come with us. Our superior is waiting for you at the police station. You can say whatever you want to him ove

Steve was taken aback, but he immediately looked cynical again. “That’s impossible. If he really wanted me to live, why would he stall for time?”“It was because he hadn’t witnessed his son attending his first day of university,” I said softly as I handed a letter to Steve. It was a letter my father wrote before he died. “He was more than willing to give his heart to you, but he wanted to spend a little more time with me, and both of you robbed him of that.”I choked back a sob as I spoke to Steve.“No, that’s not true,” Steve muttered, as if trying to convince others and himself. “Sean was the most hypocritical man I knew. He always pretended to be big‑hearted, making a show of giving me everything I wanted when he was really keeping all the good things for himself.”Despite his conviction, Steve opened the letter with trembling hands. It took only a second for his tears to fall, and his lips trembled. “This isn’t true. How can this be possible? Why would he be serious about givin

“This is the truth.”Irina glared at me and spoke sarcastically. “Do you really think you can make up stories just because you looked into our past? Are you trying to make me feel guilty? Steve and I were together for a long time, and I know exactly what kind of person he was.“You’re just like your father, telling lies without even blinking.”I looked into her eyes. “Are you really sure it was true love between you and Steve? He never loved you.” I took out a copy of Steve’s letter and flung it into her face. “Read it for yourself.”Irina was released by the guards with my permission, and she picked up the paper carefully, but in a fluster. She recognized his handwriting in a second, and her face turned pale as she read.“This isn’t true. It’s not possible,” she said forcefully, and tore the paper. “This can’t be true. This must be your doing, Leo. You’re trying to make me regret and feel sorry about your father.“I would never regret my decisions. How dare you try to make me do
