The Beginning Of All Sins

Chapter 496

Olivia showed no recognition, however. She did not even lift her head.

"Olivia, it's me! Your dad! What's got into you, sweetie?" Darren's voice was shaky. He could not believe this was his pregnant daughter.

The doctors trained their eyes to catch anything from her response, but she showed none of it.

Darren quivered.

The doctors' expressions darkened.

No father would be able to accept this-even if it was a daughter born out of wedlock.

He strode toward Tyler, demanding, "What is this? Why is she like this? Why doesn't she recognize me?! I'm her dad!"
