Even if Jonathan Quintero didn't care about having a son, Sister Lauren couldn't risk the slightest chance of Liam being taken away from her.
"Maybe I just have a special connection with that kid," Jonathan said, a rare smile breaking through his usually serious expression. "Now that I'm back in Shen City, I was hoping to see him again."
See Liam?
Rachel felt a sudden sting in her nose.
This man had caused Sister Lauren so much pain, leaving Liam without a father from the moment he was born.
While he lived a life of luxury, surrounded by admirers, Sister Lauren had been struggling in prison.
And now, he wanted to see Liam, the son he didn't even know existed? It felt like a cruel joke.
"No," Rachel instinctively refused.
Her quick and firm rejection left Jonathan Quintero momentarily stunned, a flicker of confusion flashing in his deep-set eyes.
