Chapter 609: Equally Stubborn

Daryl heaved a long sigh as he stopped in front of the large gate of Cha Mansion. How long had it been since he last stepped foot in this mansion? If his calculation was right… It has been eight years already.

He left the mansion as soon as he graduated college. Right after that, he started doing things on his own. He used the money he saved while studying and doing part-time jobs to pursue his study of law.

He had a hunch that his mother had already foreseen that his father\'s mistress would try to push him out of the family and that was why she left everything she had with him, including her shares in the Cha Group. He had a representative taking care of it since he did not want to see his father and that cunning mother and son… Karen and Harry.

He received numerous offers for his share but he refused to sell it though he did not want anything to do with his father and his new family. He decided to keep it merely because his mother entrusted those shares to him. He still kept everything his mother left him unharmed, even the money in the bank was unused.

There were indeed a lot of changes. The security had to verify him and had to get authorization before the gate opened automatically. Like what the report said, the security was very tight.

"What is going on?" he murmured as he drove inside.

He parked his car and walked out to the main door where Karen was waiting for him.

"Oh, I\'m surprised you came Daryl. You should have informed me before itself…" Karen greeted as soon as he approached.

Dary\'s eyebrows arched as he casually said, "Am I not welcome to my own house anymore that I have to tell you when I will visit? Eight years must have been long enough for you to remember that I\'m part of the Cha Family right?"

He saw Karen\'s face darkened but quickly replaced it with a smile as she said, "Oh please don\'t misunderstand me. It\'s just that if you had at least called ahead I could prepare more for lunch."

"Never mind, I will not take long. I\'m just here to visit my father since I heard he is ill. It\'s too bad that I heard it from other people when you should have been the one informing me right?" he scorned as he comfortably went inside and walked towards his father\'s room.

He paused and turned to look at Karen and said, "You don\'t need to follow me. I still know my way around my father\'s house Karen."

Karen forced a smile on her face and nodded before she turned around and balled her hand into a fist.

Daryl paused for a few seconds in front of the door. He exhaled loudly and turned the knob of the door. He went inside and saw his father on the bed.

"Karen is that you?" he asked as he heard footsteps approaching.

He sat up and slowly opened his eyes to see the one entering.

"Harry? Is that you?" he asked when he saw the build of a man but his vision was getting worse each passing day and he could no longer recognize the face.

Daryl halted, his heart filled with mixed and confusing emotions.

"Who is that? Answer me!" his father asked with an angry tone.

Daryl gulped and opened his mouth.

"It\'s me," he whispered, trying to maintain his calm voice though it ended up cracking in the end. His father looked pitiful. He did not expect this.

He seemed to be blind with the way he acted. His eyes suddenly looked away.

"Oh, Daryl… I\'m sorry it\'s just my eyes are getting worse every day and I have a hard time recognizing faces," his father said.

"Are you going blind? What is happening? Liam said that he saw you at the hospital not too long ago. You were able to recognize him that time so why can\'t you recognize your own son right now?" Daryl asked.

"You should leave this house and come with me. I will have you treated properly by the best doctors in the country. I have launched an investigation and I feel that something fishy is going on here. I won\'t be surprised to see you in a coffin next time I visit," Daryl straightforwardly hissed.

There was a board meeting scheduled soon and he heard it was about the appointment of a new CEO since his father was no longer capable of it.

"Why are you quiet?! I thought you would live in bliss with how you chose things your way but look at you now!! You can\'t even take care of yourself properly!" he added.

He saw his father smile and whisper, "I\'m sorry son… I know I hurt you really badly and was not a good father. But still, here you are thinking of my well-being. You don\'t have to worry so much about me son. I\'m already old now."

"Who is your doctor? What did he say about your condition? You should come with me and get a second opinion dad," Daryl tried to convince. He did not trust Karen and her son. Those two were probably scheming behind his father\'s back and he would not let it happen.

His father smiled and said, "Come here son, let me touch your face."

Daryl obeyed and sat on the edge of the bed and felt his father\'s hand moving to his face. He did not move.

"I\'m sorry I made you hate me all these years… I hope I can turn back time and choose a different path but there\'s no such thing in real life. I chose this route so I have to be responsible for what is happening to me now.

I\'m really proud of you Daryl. Please remember that no matter what happens… I\'m really sorry and ashamed to bother you even after everything I\'ve done. I\'m happy that you grew up strong like this on your own…"

His father said as he touched his face. Daryl could not stop the tears rolling down his face and his father wiped it.

"It\'s not too late dad. Let me bring you out of here and take care of you…" he begged.

"It\'s not that easy son… This is my home no matter what, so I will stay here," his father said.

"Why are you being so stubborn?" Daryl burst out.

"I guess you and me are the same after all. Both of us are equally stubborn," Daniel commented in a jest to lighten the mood.

He too did not know what happened to him but he did not suspect his wife at all since she had treated him nicely all these years. All he knew was that it was a genetic disease without a cure.

"How about you live here with me son? Come back home and stay here," Daryl heard his father say.
