Dexter pulled down his mask, bent down, and leaned closer to Leia. "It's me. I'm your father!"

Leia gave him a murderous look. Even if the man in front of her had become ashes, she would be able to recognize him, not to mention that he was just wearing a face mask now. However, the man in front of her was definitely not her father!

“My father is a senior official, not some shameless pervert like you!” Leia scowled with her body leaning backward. She wanted to stay away from him.

Dexter was unhappy when he heard Leia refusing to acknowledge him as her father. "He's your foster father, and I'm your biological father. I gave you my liver. How can you say something so unfilial to me?" This content belongs to Nô/velDra/ma.Org .

Leia wanted to stay away from the man in front of her. She wanted to stand up and leave, but she fell back into the wheelchair as she had no stamina. She accidentally pulled her wound. It was so painful that she furrowed her brows.

"Oh Leia, my good daughter. What's wrong with you?" Dexter immediately comforted her. Dexter was getting older, and he was all alone. Although Luke had given him a sum of money, the money would be gone if he spent it extravagantly.

Dexter had been thinking about it for the past few days. Since Leia had come back, he should seize the chance to look for Leia and ask her to look after him.

However, he had been in the hospital for a couple of days. He could not find out where Leia's ward was no matter how hard he tried to find out.

The doctor told him that he could get discharged from the hospital after doing a final check-up. Therefore, Dexter had given up the idea of looking for Leia.

Today, he followed the nurse for a check-up. He never expected that he would run into Leia.

Dexter was able to recognize Leia with just a glance at her from the back. The person sitting in the wheelchair was Leia.

The nurse who brought Leia for the check-up could not figure out the current situation, so she asked, "What's going on?"

Leia did not care if Dexter showed concern for her. She shot a cold glance at the nurse and said, "Bring me upstairs. I don't know this man." "Leia, how can you be so heartless?" Before the nurse could say anything, Dexter stood up straight and looked around him. Then, he raised his voice, "I know I wasn't a good father and I didn't take care of you back then, but you were lucky enough to have wealthy foster parents. You grew up happily. I was wrong. Now that I'm old, my only wish is to acknowledge you. But you still refuse to admit that I'm your father. I even let the doctor cut half of my liver to save you for the sake of your health. What more do you want from me to be able to forgive me?"

His voice was loud and clear. Many people had come to the outpatient department to do their medical check-us. He caught their attention, and people were staring at them.

Leia was disgusted at the thought of his liver being in her body. A queasy feeling churned in her stomach, and her body temperature was dropping!

She wished that she could cut off all the ties with this man, which included blood ties and genes.

Hence, she would not have accepted Dexter's liver if it were not because she was left with no choice!

Leia retorted, “Get lost. I'll never forgive you. All you knew was to sell your wife and daughter. You don't deserve to be my father!"

Dexter knew Leia hated him, and he knew that he would not have another chance to ask for her forgiveness. He noticed that the people around him were looking at them.

Thud! He kneeled on the floor.

"Leia, I'm sorry. I've spent my days living in the shelter. I really wanted to see you again. I prayed to God, hoping that I could do something for you. And you're finally back here, but you were sick. I knew God was giving me the chance to make it up to you. That's why I donated half of my liver to you. I hope that I can ask for your forgiveness and hear you call me 'Dad'." Tears streamed down Dexter's face. An old man was kneeling before her. Those who did not know what had happened felt sorry for him.

However, Leia was not one of them.

The man's blood was flowing in her body, and she was using his liver too. She knew why he was saying these things to her. He was thinking of exploiting her, like a vampire craving her blood.

Leia was not silly. If she let him get what he wanted, she would have to bear another burden in the future.

She needed someone like Jack to change her life, instead of someone who would hold her back like Dexter.

"Leave me alone. I'm not going to forgive you for everything that you did in the past just because you donated half of your liver to me. Besides, you were paid for this!" Leia knew that if she did not say anything, those people would speak up for Dexter.

"Leia, how can you be so heartless?! I took the money because half of my liver is gone and it might affect my daily life in the future. I couldn't hope for you to take care of me, and that's why I took the money. At least I can make sure that I won't live a miserable life when I have no one to depend on." Dexter sniffled in between words. He was crying his lungs out.

The nurse had already given Dexter a haircut and shaved his beard when he was admitted to the hospital. He no longer looked like a tramp now. He just looked like a skinny, old man.

Outsiders would only think that he was just an old father who had risked his life to save his daughter.

"Don't you ever think that I'll have sympathy for you just because of your words. Perhaps you're just trying to gain sympathy. Go away. I never want to see you again!" Leia yelled at the caretaker, "Why are you still standing there? Bring me upstairs."

The caretaker came back to her senses. Dexter rose to his feet when she was about to reverse the wheelchair. He stood in front of Leia and blocked her. His hands were clasping the wheelchair, refusing to let go. "Leia, I never asked for anything when I donated my liver to you. All I want is to hear you call me 'Dad' again. Can't you do that for me?"

Leia was so furious that her body was trembling, and her body temperature was quickly dropping as well. “You don't deserve it!"

Right after she said that, one of the bystanders said, "I remember her. She's the female celebrity who left the entertainment industry, Leia."

"Really? The name doesn't ring a bell. But she's wearing a mask. How are you able to recognize her?" Another person went along with that man.

"The news stated that she got admitted to the hospital for treatment. I think that's her. I remember that before she ended her career as an actress, a man claimed that he was her biological father and accused her of being unfilial..."

"That should be her. I remember reading that news. Tsk-tsk. How can this woman be so heartless? Even if her father had done something terrible to her, it's all over now. He took the risk to donate his

liver to her at his age. How could she be so ungrateful.." Another bystander criticized her.

Leia's eyes reddened as she yelled at those people, "You know nothing!"

They did not know that Dexter was unworthy of being called a father. Never mind all the things he did in the past. A man like him without any background and social status did not deserve to be her father!

"My father is Jack Norman, not this tramp in front of me!" Leia screamed. She lifted her leg and gave a brutal kick to Dexter's body.

Dexter did not expect that Leia would kick him. It sent him flying to the floor. He noticed that many people were speaking up for him. He remained on the floor and mumbled, "My daughter doesn't want to acknowledge me. She even kicked me. I'm better off dead!"
