The Odd Billionaire
Chapter 63

Traizle

"Don't you dare meddle with our family affairs, Albert!" Mom yelled.

"I have the right to meddle in these family affairs. I know already the truth, Isabel," Mr. Andrade said. "Traizle is my daughter. How can you not tell me that she is my daughter and tell me that she is from Louie? You even left the children, Isabel!" he added.

I can't follow what they are talking about.

They are telling that my father is Mr. Andrade?

How come he is my father?

How about my brothers?

"Wait a minute, Mr. Andrade." I called him. "I don't quite follow what you guys are talking about. Am I hearing things correctly?" I asked and turned to my mother. "What the hell is happening?" I asked her.

"Do not listen to him, he is just lying. Your Dad is Louie. How can he be your Dad when I was in a relationship before with your Dad?" Mom said, explaining. "Can you move and let me go with my daughter now?!"

"I won't go with you," I answered her. "I won't go with you. I can provide what my brothers need. We survive without you. There is no reason for us to be with you, right?" I asked.

"How dare you to say that in front of me!" My Mom yelled again as she approaches me with her hand raising to hit me.

Mr. Andrade and Zarsuelo put me behind them.

"I am sorry, Ma'am. But I won't let you hit my girlfriend. I also hope that you can stop forcing them to go with you, or else we will ask for a restraining order." Zarsuelo said. "Fine!" Mom said and walked away.

I am glad they are here to help me. I don't know what will happen to the both of us, aside from pulling and pushing each other.

"Are you okay?" Mr. Andrade asked as he looked all over me.

"I am okay, b-but I am still confused." I answered him honestly.

"Will you hear me? I will explain to you everything." he asked.

I nodded. "There is nothing wrong with hearing your side, Mr. Andrade. Where should we talk?" I asked.

"I want you to come to my house. Let Mr. Zarsuelo come with us. There are also people who are waiting for you in my house." Mr. Andrade said.

There are also people who are waiting for me?

We ride to Mr. Andrade's car. I also texted Lyndon that I would be going home late.

"We are here already." Mr. Andrade said.

I look to Zarsuelo. He smiled at me and held my hand. "It will be okay, I will be with you. We will face the truth together, so do not worry." Zarsuelo said.

We went inside of Mr. Andrade's house. There are no people in his sala.

"Do you guys want something to drink?" Mr. Andrade asked us. "Seems like they are upstairs, hiding from both of you." he added.

"I am fine with just water, Sir." Zarsuelo answered.

Mr. Andrade went out to get a water for us before sitting in front me.

"I know everything seems to be confusing, but I actually heard the truth a few days ago," Mr. Andrade said. "When we were young, I actually loved your mother. She was the girl I wanted to be with forever. I even thought of marrying her, but my parents were against it and decided to have an arranged marriage with my late wife." he added.

Late wife? Did his wife died?

"In our first year, I was still not happy with what happened and continued to see her behind my wife's back. I already knew that Isabel only wanted my money, but I still went on, because I loved her. When my parents cut off my money, I can't even provide what she needs, making her mad at me. One day, I visited her house and she told me that she was pregnant and I was the father, but she did not want me to meddle with it and warned me that she would abort the child if I came to her again. She even told me that she does not need me anymore since Louie can provide her wants," he shared. "I was so heartbroken and I can not accept that Isabel did that. As much as I wanted to be with you, I didn't dare approach her and started to accept my late wife. She did everything for me to move on. We were blessed with a kid, but after a few years, she died because of an illness. I remember the time when you helped Mr. Zarsuelo. I never thought that you were Isabel's daughter. I tried to search for her and found your new house and saw you being beated by her." he added as he wiped his tears.

"I tried to talk to Isabel that night, but she warned me again that she would beat you more. As much as I wanted to come and show myself to you I was scared that she might really hurt you and hide you from me again," He said. "My wife said that I should replace and take care of you. When I met you in Mr. Zarsuelo's company, I knew that you were my daughter from the moment I saw you. I am scared to tell you that I am your father because Isabel might have known about this, so I kept it again and acted like a man who had a business with Mr. Zarsuelo." he added.

"Why did you decided to show and tell me that I am your daughter? How about my brothers? Am I your only child with my Mom?" I asked.

"My son told me about you. He was with Lyndon and told me everything. That's when I found out the truth about Isabel. She left you guys alone, and you have had to suffer too much. He told me to help you from Isabel. That is why I mustered the courage to come in front of you and explain my side," he explained. "I hope you can forgive me and allow me to help you. I also want to spend the rest of my life with you." he added.

"I am sorry, Mr. Andrade, but how about my brothers? They need me as well. I can't leave them." I told him.

I am happy to know that my real dad still cares for me, but I can't just leave my brothers alone.

"I accept them as my own sons already. I hope you can let me recuperate during the times I am not there to help and celebrate the occasions with you. I am proud that you raised them with love and care." he answered.

"Traizle! Let's live with your Dad. He is nice and rich!" I heard Layzen said and saw him walking down from the stairs.

"Layzen? What are you doing here?" I asked Layzen and I also saw Lyndon and Archane. "Why are you guys here?" I added.

"I am Archane Andrade, your step-brother."

What?
