Chapter Nine.; He Didn’t Want Me
As soon as he entered the hotel, he was expecting a big celebration to welcome him, but he was wrong yet again, the place was very quiet and nothing glamours was being planned, there’s also no one else around.So he walked up to the penthouse that his mother had told him about holding unto some papers he believed his father would want to see.As soon as he reached the door, he nocked on the door twice but no one was answering him.He was serious Abd heard a faint noice coming from inside as well, so he knew there was someone inside.After a little tug, he found out the door was already opened so he entered bracing himself for a surprise celebratory party.“Otherwise, why would they leave the door open” he thought.He did got it quite alright; the surprise, but not the one he expected.In the big spacious luxurious living room of the penthouse, a woman could be seen on her knees, her hands pulled together in front of her as she rubbed them against each other.In front of her was an elderly man who seemed to be in his late fifties. He had an ugly look on his face, he was holding a stick up in the air as if it would suddenly hand on the woman’s body.He could clearly see that the man was suppressing her as she begged mercy from him and by the palm print on her face, he didn’t need anyone to tell him what was happening.He rushed to the people just in time to stop the man’s sick from landing on his mother’s body.“What are you doing?” He yelled not wanting to know who the other person is although he had a slight feeling that it was his father.Melissa opened her eyes to see Lucas supporting her to stand up.“Lucas why are you here? I told you to call me when you reach the hotel didn’t I? Why did you have to enter?” she immediately spoke panic written on her face.“I called your phone but you didn’t pick, I also knocked but you didn’t answer, I had foolishly thought that you were still planning my surprise for me so I entered..”“Who’s this?” Patrick Baron’s voice suddenly sounded very deep, cold and intimidating.“He’s your son!” Melissa finally said the word not able to restrain herself.The next second she received a hard slap on her face.“Didn’t I tell me not to mention such words to me again? I have only onedon woman, Melissa and that’s Kevin”Lucas then stopped steadying his mother and looked at the man in front of him and took a step further.He was fair in completion, he had a big round face with thick eye brass, he’s tall and looked fit except for his potbelly which is typical of rich men.They did have little resemblance especially their nose, but apart from that, they were different people.“So you are my father, we finally meet” Lucas was not as excited as he had been because this was not how he planned to meet his dad, and his answer too was not what he expected.He was scrutinizing him and judging him with his eyes.“You, don’t call me that you bastard, you can never be my son, I will never accept you even if the heavens and the earth passes away, you hear me” Patrick Baron was furious.Just now his wife invited him to accompany her for a charity event, he felt bad for how he oppressed her and decided to go with her.But he didn’t expect that just when they were in the penthouse and should be doing something more intimate, she could out of the bloom hit him with a news that she has found their son.He knew very well that he had made sure the orphanage was burnt, so how come this rag in front of him claim to be his son again? It was unbelievable. He believed that she must have had him with her other lovers and decided to have him the blame.But he refused to partake in a such thing.“You, get out of this place!” He roared with a loud voice and attempted to beat Lucas, but Lucas wasn’t a weak person like his mother, he wouldn’t let the old man hit him, he held his hand and pushed him to the floor.“Thum!” The man fell with a loud sound and struggled to open his eyes and blood gushed out of his broken head.“You!” He pointed at Lucas, “You are not my son, you will never be a Baron and you must pay for what you did ah!” He shouted and fell unconscious at the spot.“Lucas! What have you done? You should run right now!” Melissa encouraged her son because she knew the implications of those words, she knew deep down that her husband might not accept him, but she didn’t want things to turn out this way.Once anyone learns that he’s the one who pushed him to the floor, she knew that’ll probably be his end.“Go back to that house and wait for me, I’ll take him to the hospital” Lucas wasn’t a coward to run away from such a scene after all he didn’t feel bad for hitting the old man.But he was so angry that he wanted to beat his unconscious body, before he did anything irrational, he decided to leave the place with a new found information.That is his father didn’t like him at all. “You will never be a Baron!” Those words kept ringing in his head as he walked away.“You’ll see Patrick Baron”. He said and went away.
