My Love Until the Last Goodbye by Alut

Chapter 1009

Lucius frowned, staring at his father in shock. “Where did this man even come from? How do you know he’s telling the truth?”

Maximus sighed, clearly uncomfortable. “He knew your mother, Lucius… He even knew about Paul from the moment he was conceived.”

“Dad! How could this even happen? Paul…” Laura trailed off, struggling to process the revelation.

“Laura, Lucius… Honestly, I never thought this would have to come out. Your mother and I weren’t the best couple. We made a lot of mistakes, but you kids… I could never regret bringing you into this world. And now, with this…” Maximus clenched his jaw, clearly upset.

“I know your mother and I handled things poorly, and now it’s blowing up in my face. But I need you both to understand—whether Paul is my biological son or not doesn’t matter to me. I love him, just like I love each of you,” he said, his frustration evident.

“Maximus… He needs to take a paternity test. You should take one too,” Lucius said firmly.

“I don’t need to. As I told you, I already took the test a year ago–with everyone except you. That’s how I found out Paul wasn’t mine. But that doesn’t change anything. Paul is my son and always will be,” Maximus said, standing up and walking over to his safe.

“Dad, I think Lucius is right. That man has to take a test. How else will we know for sure that he’s really Paul’s father?” Laura said, placing a hand on her father’s back.

Maximus wanted to resist, but deep down, he knew they were right. The story the man had told him lined up- there was no reason for it to be false. Not to mention the unmistakable physical resemblance, even down to a birthmark that had been passed down for generations.
