Chapter 867

Sammy had always feared that his dad, Ludwik, might not want the baby that Florence was carrying. This fear kept him from confiding in the adults around him; adults were just too unpredictable.

At heart, Sammy was pure. He only wanted to protect his little sister.

Now, realizing he was powerless, he had no choice but to turn to Ludwik for help.

"My boy," Ludwik said, his voice heavy yet unable to hide a surge of emotion, as he shared a heartfelt truth with his son, "Sammy, listen. Whether I like it or not, the thought of this baby being your mom's child makes me want to ensure her safe arrival into this world. You say she's your sister, then she's your sister.

She will grow up to be as beautiful as your mom was.

Maybe her being in Florence's womb is a bit of a scandal, but nobody wanted things to turn out this way. Life is innocent, and I don't want to harm her!"

That child carried Whitney's blood, her DNA.

Ludwik couldn't bear the thought. It didn't matter whose womb she was in; he would raise her as his own daughter.

As for whether Whitney could accept this...

Ludwik lowered his eyes, "What's important now is bringing her into the world safely. If your mom can't accept her, then we'll just keep it between us guys for now. This child has nothing to do with Florence!

I'm afraid your mom might regret knowing the truth later. We can't do something she'll regret, what do you think?"

"That's exactly what I was thinking!" Sammy felt a weight lift from his shoulders, getting the answer he had hoped for.

Ludwik was reliable. He wasn't going to let a dispute with mom lead to rejecting this innocent child.

"Thank you, Dad," Sammy said, clenching his fists.

Ludwik's gaze sharpened on him, "Since you chose tonight to tell me all this, Sammy, you must know where Florence is, right?" "Yeah, I know where she is!"

"What are we waiting for? We need to act fast, Sammy! We must find this woman and deal with her, damn it!"
