Novel & Cerita Is William Afton Vanessa's Dad

Vanessa said, "Well, Paige, you know, Anthony... Anthony...." "Anthony? Why are you talking about Anthony?" Paige asked. Vanessa was confused. "Isn't he your father?" Paige smiled. "C'mon mom, you think I was talking about Anthony? Oh no." "You know that Anthony is not your father?" Vanessa asked. "Of course, I already met my dad." "You did? You met.... Melvin?" Vanessa asked. "Yeah, my dad is Mr. Melvin Lawson. I now go by the name, Paige Lawson."

Because Vanessa promptly pulled me into the nest after he messaged and I didn’t prioritize replying after we finished. “It wasn’t Alpha Nick,” my dad confirms. “But he’s definitely Vanessa ’s father.” I’m silent at that pronouncement. Not because I’m shocked. I’m just… angry. I really hoped to learn that it wasn’t one of our wolves that raped her mother. But after everything with Alpha Kin, it doesn’t surprise me. “Sorry, I should have softened that.” “No, it’s fine. I’m just deciding what to do with the information,” I admit, palming the back of my neck.

“I found a man following Vanessa.” My father rose from his chair. “What man?” “I was hoping you could tell me.” “Describe him.” “Mid-forties, maybe older. Graying hair. Dark coat. He knew Vanessa’s name, Evelyn’s name, Albany, St. Matthew’s, and enough about our family to recognize me immediately.” My father’s hand remained on the closed folder. “What did he say?” “He said Evelyn made a mistake.” My father did not respond. “He said Vanessa should ask her mother why the family moved after Albany.”

The year Chelsea Shelton, a Hawthorne Bay heiress, hated me more than ever, she brought home one guy after another. And after she was done with them, she made me pay them off. I'd cursed, fought, even landed in the hospital after throwing hands with escorts. Eventually, I stopped caring and signed one million-dollar check after another. All so she'd keep paying Dad's medical bills. Then Dad went into cardiac arrest again. He was critical. Hands shaking, I called Chelsea. She told the hospital to kick him out of the ICU. "Rowyn Reynaud, that's not how you beg. I don't like it." I tore home through the rain and begged her to let him stay. She made me stand outside all night and liste

"Are you serious right now?" "Your father?," I start while wrapping both hands around my cup. "He's a businessman that has a bitter history with my father" I tilt my head slightly. "Tell me, is he the kind of man who would pay someone to move funds through another man's accounts and hand him over to investigators?" Vanessa frowned instantly "I don't know what you're talking about," She says flatly. "I hope that's true Vanessa," I reply, keeping my voice warm and my eyes steady on hers.

" He said, with a flat expression. "Now it's my turn," I said, trying to let go of the tension between us. "I have a secret too. And it's about Vanessa." Adrian's eyes narrowed. "What did you find out?" "While I was at the clinic with Ashley. I overheard Vanessa talking to a man in one of the rooms. I hear Vanessa'sessa’s little boy isn’t Ryan’s biological son,” I said, feeling very satisfied. “I heard her talking about how the Ashford family wouldn’t find out about the boy’s DNA. She was planning something.”

"I need to head back, Grand Alpha. My phone has been buzzing non stop. I haven't spoken to my pack elders since I crossed the ridge yesterday, and they're growing restless." Jordan stepped closer, his brow furrowing as he looked down at me. "Abel... don't do this. What you saw back there with Vanessa and Ronan—" "There's no need to explain, Jordan," I cut him off softly, raising a hand in a calm, measured gesture. "It's undeniable. Vanessa was Ronan's lover, and Ethan is his blood. How she chooses to manage the father of her child is entirely her business. It doesn't concern me." Jordan stared at me, his eyes narrowing slightly as he tried to read the tension beneath my voice. "Abel—"

He bellowed, his thunderous voice echoing through the mall, causing many shoppers to instinctively step back. Several of them recognized him immediately. He was Cole Bennett, the general manager of Ash Mall… and Vanessa’s father. He rarely made appearances, unless there were important personnel present, so his presence here was shocking to everyone. However, he had heard the commotion from his office and decided to come here to take a look. The moment Vanessa saw the rage burning in her father’s eyes, she quickly wiped away her tears with the back of her hand and pointed accusingly toward Ashley and Vicky. “It was them, Dad! That useless bitch and her friend dared to slap me!” she cried.

“I think it was quarantine.” He didn’t interrupt. Vanessa pulled up another fragment—this one older. Older than Wilson Corp’s public records. Older than her marriage. Her father’s name appeared half-rendered on the screen. She inhaled slowly. “They were not afraid of me,” she said. “Not at first. They were afraid of what I had access to.” Damien’s voice dropped “your father.” “Yes.” She straightened, shoulders squared. “My father didn’t disappear,” she said. “He was erased the same way they tried to erase me.”

"Peter, see how considerate Jen is. She's worried you might suffer out there, so she's even arranged both food and lodging for you." "It's just helping Ronald look after his kid. Surely that is better than the poor life you are living now. You should thank Jen." Ronald touched his watch and put on a show of concern. "Don't worry, Peter. If my daughter misbehaves, I'll discipline her myself. I won't let her give you a hard time." Jenny snorted and shot me a sideways look. "Give him a hard time? He vanished over something trivial back then. Now that he can't survive out there, he comes crawling back. It's only right that he endures a little."
