Fated to the Cursed Lycan Prince by Dark Knight
Chapter 819 Call Me Dad
Sylvia’s POV:
Edwin’s direct words caused a great uproar among the crowd. Warren and others were completely taken aback at his revelation.
I didn’t know what to do. I thought he would keep it a secret from them for now, and didn’t expect him to reveal it at this very moment.
“Sylvia, you’re Alpha Leonard’s daughter? That’s just amazing!” Obviously, Flora was very surprised and pleased to learn about it as she turned to me with her bright eyes. However, the next second, she lowered her head and let out a deep sigh.
I knew why she did that. Flora had been helping me find my father. But after finally finding him, the universe took him away from me, forever. No words could ever describe the regret and sorrow in my heart.
I patted her shoulder and rea*s*sured in a comforting voice, “Don’t worry. I’m fine now. It’s still unfortunate, but I have to get on with my life.”
At this time, the pack’s elders, as well as the Alphas who had traveled from other packs to attend the ceremony, began talking amongst themselves
For werewolves, nothing was more important than their bloodline. When Edwin revealed that I was Leonard’s daughter, no one believed it.
But I had been mentally preparing myself for such reaction, and I just didn’t care whether they believed it or not. It didn’t matter what they thought now.
“You can check this document if you don’t believe me.” Edwin took out a paper bag and opened it.
“These are not only Sylvia and Leonard’s paternity test results, and this is a document written by Leonard himself when he was still alive. It stated that Sylvia would be officially recognized as the princess of the pack. Look at the stamp. You all know no one can forge an Alpha’s stamp.” Following that, he held up the paper for everyone to see. Then he turned to me and said, “Leonard had planned to tell you the truth after Alina’s wedding. He wanted to get your approval before he announced you as his biological daughter and held a grand ceremony for your return.”
I pursed my lips and took the document from his hand. The handwriting on it was firm and beautiful, and the last stroke of the word at the end of each sentence raised slightly. It was clear that the person who wrote it was in a cheerful mood.
“Leonard was a tough man. He was probably embarra*s*sed to open up to you, and that’s why he recorded in a VCR what he wanted to tell you. I’m afraid that he didn’t think it would be used like this, to prove your innocence before the entire pack,” Edwin said with a mocking smile.
The next moment, an electronic screen from a distance switched on, and Edwin played the video in front of everyone.
Leonard’s face materialized on the screen. Although he was ill, he still looked full of energy. With a wide smile he rarely had, the recording just showed how happy he was. He looked very kind, although his body language demonstrated that he was a little embarra*s*sed and uneasy.
At the beginning of the video, he greeted me dryly before bursting into laughter, probably to conceal his embarra*s*sment. But soon after, his smile faded as he said seriously, “Sylvia, I’m your father, your biological father.”
This brought on a fresh wave of sadness and despair, and I found myself unable to hold back my tears.
“I’m not sure if you’re ready to accept me as your father, but it doesn’t matter. From now on, I will always be here to protect you and watch you get married and have children. If you don’t mind, I am very much willing to help you take care of your kids. I know I owe you a lot. That’s why I hope you can give me a chance to make it up to you.”
Suddenly, Leonard took a pause, hesitant and a little timid to continue.
After a long silence, he asked again, “So, would you like to call me dad?”
And that was it—the video ended. At that moment, I couldn’t hold back my tears anymore.
