Addicted To The Genius Lady With A Thousand Faces

Chapter 837:

With a mix of anticipation and trepidation, Paul took the phone, scanning the report carefully. Elvis, just as eager, stepped closer, peering at the screen over Paul’s shoulder.

“Yesterday, something made me think you might be my father,” Marissa began, her voice steady despite the weight of her words. “But I couldn’t bring myself to say anything without proof. So, I secretly pulled some of your hairs and sent them for a DNA test.”

As Marissa finished, Paul had already read the report. He looked up at her, his gaze intense, searching her face as if seeing her for the first time.

He had noticed when Marissa had tugged at his hair the day before. Though puzzled by the act, he chose not to question it, allowing her to do as she wished.

Never in his wildest dreams did he imagine she was collecting samples for a paternity test—and that the results would reveal he was indeed her father, Brian.

Since waking up from the surgery with no memory of his past, Brian had lived as Paul, believing that was who he was. The revelation that he was once the famed medical genius, Brian, hit him like a bolt of lightning.

The irony was bitter. The man once celebrated for his medical skills had spent years battling illness, hovering on the brink of death, helpless to change his own fate. Life had played a cruel joke on him.

Marissa sat quietly, letting Paul take in the truth, her heart laid bare. After a long while, Paul finally reached out, gripping her hand with fierce emotion.

“No wonder I felt so drawn to you from the moment we met. I wanted you to be my daughter—and you really are.”

His voice cracked, eyes misting with tears. “I’m sorry. I forgot about you.”

Marissa’s eyes welled up, and without hesitation, she flung herself into Paul’s arms, choking out, “Dad.” This time, Paul didn’t hesitate—he wrapped his arms around his daughter, holding her close.

Though he’d heard of the legendary medical genius Brian, Paul knew nothing about him personally. The name meant little to him, and even after learning that Brian was, in fact, him, the realization stirred no deep connection, only a sense of lingering unfamiliarity.

But the undeniable bond he felt as he held his daughter washed over him like a wave of pure joy. It was as if he had been blessed with a divine gift, a treasure from the heavens.

As memories of his first meeting with Marissa resurfaced, Paul was overwhelmed with a mix of emotions. Suddenly, he recalled what Marissa had mentioned about Tiffany, and his pulse quickened. With urgency in his voice, Paul asked, “Marissa, have you found your sister, Tiffany?”

Marissa stiffened momentarily before sitting up straight and recounting Tiffany’s current predicament. As Paul listened, his rage built up until he slammed his fist against the bed. “That despicable Q! How dare they harm my daughter? If I get my hands on them, I’ll skin them alive.”

Seeing the fury etched on Paul’s face, Marissa couldn’t help but feel a surge of emotion. Her father, once a gentle, scholarly scientist—soft-spoken and physically unassuming—had crumbled under threats and persecution, ultimately choosing a tragic end because he couldn’t bear the pressure.

But now, her father was the infamous Paul—a man with terrifying power, feared by all the major players. Over the past decade, her father had changed so much, not just in appearance, but in personality, too.

It was as if he had become an entirely different person. Without the DNA test as proof, it would be hard to believe he was Brian.noveldrama

“Dad, don’t worry. Tiffany’s safe for now,” Marissa reassured him
