Journey to Happy Ending

Chapter 1684 The Truth (Part Two)

"Mommy, what's wrong? Can we go down?" Huey asked in confusion, his brows furrowing. He and

Joyce were sitting at the back, so they didn't see Rain.

"Oh, let's get out." Annie's head rang as her biggest secret that she managed to hide all these years

was about to be exposed.

Rain also got out of the car and trotted his way over to them. But when his eyes landed on the two

children, he halted.

Were they Annie's children? Rain held his breath as his eyes darted back and forth between Huey and

Joyce. His heart raced and beat wildly in his chest. Somehow, the boy looked very familiar to him.

"Did you just arrive?" Annie asked as she walked over to him. She stood in front of the kids to stop him

from ogling at them. What would Rain do after he found out the truth?

"Yep.

Your kids look adorable," Rain said as his eyes looked away. Deep inside, he pondered on who the boy

looked like.

"Huey, you look like this uncle!" A little girl's voice piped up from behind Annie's back.

Annie's face immediately blanched. She dodged Rain's questioning eyes and scolded her daughter,

"Don't talk nonsense!"

Rain's eyes widened in shock. He pulled Annie aside and stared at the boy carefully. He finally realized

that why the boy looked so familiar. He was a mini version of himself.

Rain turned to look pointedly at Annie. "Can you explain?" His eyes roamed across Annie's face, never

missing a single expression. Her every move was now under his scrutiny.

"I..." Annie clenched her fists tightly into a ball, her nails digging into her palms. She wondered how she

should explain everything. Four years ago, they had one passion-filled, romantic night and two months

later, she found out she was pregnant. She panicked at the beginning and even considered abortion --

after all, it was very hard for a woman to raise her child alone. However, she eventually decided to keep

the babies. If she couldn't be with Rain, it was not a bad idea to have his children.

"Annie, you've been hiding them from me all these years? It seems that I've underestimated you." Rain

laughed bitterly. He didn't expect this woman to have made a fool out of him. He suddenly felt that he

didn't know her at all.

"Rain, you got me wrong. Please let me explain." She had imagined countless possibilities of how Rain

would react when he saw the children, but none of them included this. She was rather shocked by his

reaction and didn't understand why he was so angry.

"Explain? Annie, you know what I hate the most in my life! I hate that my father abandoned my mother

and me, and that I was called bastard. Why do you have to let my children go through the same

experience again? I hate you!" Rain bellowed as his eyes fiercely stared at her. He had a miserable

childhood, and he had sworn he would never let his children undergo the same experience. But what

did Annie do?

"Bad guy! Leave my mommy alone!" Huey yelled from behind his mother and proceeded to punch

Rain's leg to protect Annie. Meanwhile, Joyce freaked out at the situation and burst into tears.

"Huey, don't do that. He's your daddy," Annie told her son as she sniffled, tears flowing down her

cheeks. She knew Rain's miserable past, and she had thought repeatedly about how to explain the

kids to him so he could forgive her. Huey huffed and had an angry look on his little face. Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.

"No, he's not my daddy. Daddy won't hurt mommy!" Huey argued. He had long been looking forward to

meeting his father, but the way Rain acted right now really scared him and he refused to believe that

the man who just scolded his mother was his father. He was too disappointed to accept that.

Rain was shocked. He was just guessing that Huey was his son based on how he looked, and now

Annie's words definitely confirmed it. He turned to look at the boy, not knowing what to say or do. He

was currently at a loss on how to deal with the situation.

"Mommy, is he daddy? He's so pretty," Joyce said as her big, innocent doe eyes stared at Rain.

'Pretty?' Annie's face twitched at Joyce's description. Had she just used the word "pretty" to describe

Rain? Rain hated being called pretty. Despite her reluctance, Annie nodded slightly.

"What's your name?" Rain tried his best to calm himself down and squatted down in front of Joyce. He

regretted having lost his temper before the kids. They were still so young, and it was obvious that they

would freak out when he lashed in anger at Annie.

"Daddy, my name is Joyce An, and he's Huey An." The little girl was not shy with strangers at all. She

introduced herself and her brother to Rain in a cheerful voice as if she already forgot how scary this

man had been and how she had cried about it just a few moments ago.

"Why did you tell him my name? He didn't ask for it," Huey said defensively as he pouted his lips. He

had wondered what his father would look like many times, but Rain was not the kind of man he liked.

He was a little too handsome, so no wonder Joyce was attracted by him easily.

Rain felt extremely elated and was on cloud nine when the little girl called him daddy. Now, he had a

different problem to face -- his son disliked him terribly.

"Could you please tell me your name, boy?" Rain then turned to Huey and spoke gently in a voice that

he deemed was his softest. The little boy and he shared the same attitude -- they were both stubborn

and adamantly refused to accept defeat.

"No! You bullied mommy. I won't tell you my name." Huey didn't know what was going on between the

adults, but he could tell that his mother was having a hard time.

"I didn't bully your mommy. There were just some misunderstandings between us," Rain said mildly. He

had mocked Edward before because the latter hadn't known he had a son until Daisy brought Justin to

him. Now, he was in the same position. He suddenly had a son and a daughter! How amazing it was!

"Really?" Huey didn't believe what Rain said at all. He looked at Annie, waiting for her response.

"Your daddy is right. He didn't bully me." Annie heaved a long sigh of relief as the secret she had kept

for four years was finally out and she didn't have to keep things in secret any longer. She didn't know

what Rain would do next, but at least she didn't have to hide from him anymore.

"Fine! I forgive you. But I have to warn you, do not bully my mommy. Otherwise, I'm not talking to you,"

Huey said again with a pout.

"I'll settle things with you later," Rain turned to Annie and hissed in a hushed voice in her ear. 'How

could she marry that damn Fred and let my children call him daddy?' he cursed in his mind.
