True Love Deserves a Second Chance by Nox Shadow

Chapter 247 Teaching Darren a Lesson

Hearing this, Darren's raised fist stopped in mid-air. He was stunned for a long tbefore reacting, shaking his

head in disbelief. "Impossible, how could she be my daughter?"

Theodore looked at him with a grim expression. "It's not that you don't believe this fact, but you can't accept

what you've done to your own daughter! For Isabella, you've hurt Joyce so many times. This time, you even

helped her escape from prison, which led to Joyce's disappearance!"

Darren, if Joyce knew she had a father like you, how heartbroken she would be. If she really died, it would be you

who killed her."

For the first time, the usually gentle and elegant Theodore shouted at Darren. Thinking about how all of this was

related to Darren, his hatred for him grew even more.

If Darren hadn't cheated and gotten his mistress pregnant, Connie wouldn't have died, and Joyce wouldn't have

been in danger repeatedly.

Facing Theodore's questioning, Darren instantly lost all strength. He collapsed to the ground, muttering, "Joyce is

my daughter. She is Connie's and my child. | found my daughter. | have another daughter."

Theodore looked at him coldly. "She is not your daughter. Besides providing sperm, you haven't done anything

good for her. You even teamed up with your illegitimate daughter to hurt her. If Joyce is found, | believe she won't

acknowledge you as her father!"

After saying that, he turned and left, leaving Darren alone on the grass.

At this moment, Derek and Benjamin walked out, each holding a stick. Before Darren could react, Benjamin

swung his stick at his back.

Benjamin cursed, "You scum, if anything happens to Joyce, | will make sure you die with her."

Darren's back was in excruciating pain. Just as he was about to explain, Derek hit his leg with a stick.

Derek's voice was cold and harsh. "Theodore and Sebastian are too kind to dirty their hands with you. But I will

do it for them! | will beat you to death for my daughter-in-law and grandson!"

Benjamin was holding a baseball bat, hitting Darren's body and legs repeatedly.

The piercing pain made Darren miserable. He lay on the ground, letting the stick fall on him again and again.

Darren's mind was filled with the fact that Joyce was his daughter. The first the saw Joyce, he thought she

looked a lot like Connie.

Darren thought, 'Why hadn't | suspected anything? Seeing Theodore and Beatrice frequently visiting the

Blackwood Family, why hadn't | realized? | always think that child is long dead. Why is that child Joyce?" Ignoring

the pain in his body, Darren lay on the ground, wailing in agony. "Joyce, I'm sorry. It's my fault."

Hearing this, Benjamin beceven angrier. He hit Darren's stomach with the stick and cursed, "Shut up! Joyce

doesn't have a father like you. She will never acknowledge you as her dad. Go find your crippled illegitimate

daughter." Benjamin was panting with exhaustion. Thinking about Joyce's uncertain fate, he couldn't help but

shed tears. Pointing at Darren, he shouted, "Darren, you better pray that Joyce and her child are safe. If anything

happens to either of them, | won't let you off!"

After saying that, Benjamin kicked Darren's stomach again and turned to walk into the hall.

Derek, feeling the sway, looked at Benjamin's back and instructed the bodyguards behind him, "Take him to

the hospital. Don't let him die here. Not yet."

Darren was dragged into the car, feeling excruciating pain in his arms and thighs. He knew he must have broken

bones. But this pain was nothing compared to the pain in his heart. He held his head in agony, lying in the back

seat of the car, crying.

As they drove out, a silver sports car drove in and parked in the lot.

Alexander handed Sophia a tissue, gently comforting her, "Stop crying. You've been crying for days. Sebastian is

even more upset than you. We're here to see him, not to add to his troubles."

Sophia's tears kept flowing. Looking at the swing in the yard and the silent white Samoyed at the door, she felt

much pain.

Joyce lived here for three years. Everything here bore her mark.

Sophia remembered clearly that every evening after dinner, Joyce would run on the grass with Baxter to digest.

Joyce would also play on the swing. Whenever Joyce was happy, she would invite her over and cook her favorite

meals. Coming back to this familiar place but not seeing the familiar person, Sophia's heart ached to the

extreme.

With tearful eyes, she looked at Alexander. "Joyce won't die, right? So many people are waiting for her. She won't

die, right?"

Alexander patted her head, comforting her, "No, God will bless Joyce. She will cback." He helped Sophia

unbuckle her seatbelt and led her into the villa hall.

Sebastian, who had been standing on the balcony, saw everything that had just happened.

He hadn't slept at all. As soon as Theodore left, he stood on the balcony smoking. So, he saw clearly when

Benjamin and Derek teamed up to beat Darren. He also saw Sophia crying her heart out.

Looking at Joyce's photo in his hand, Sebastian's voice was hoarse. "Joyce, cback. We're all waiting for you."

At this moment, his phone rang. Seeing it was an unknown number, he thought it was the search team and

immediately answered. He eagerly asked, "Did you find her?"

But as soon as he finished speaking, a sinister voice cfrom the other end. "Sebastian, isn't it painful to lose

the one you love the most? That's right, that's the effect | wanted."

Hearing the tone, Sebastian didn't need to think to know it was the mastermind behind everything. He steadied

his emotions, his voice cold. "Who are you? If you have the guts, facehead-on!. Attacking my wife is beneath

contempt!" The man sneered, "I'm not just targeting your wife. I'm targeting the entire Winters Family. | want to

destroy the Winters Family to avenge my mother!"

Sebastian's expression turned cold. "Logan, if you think you can destroy the Winters family, you're even more

delusional than | thought."

Hearing his name, Logan Hayes was momentarily stunned, then laughed. "Not bad, you managed to find out my

name. But so what? Our ghas just begun. Wait to see the Winters Family's downfall." After saying that, the

call was disconnected.

Sebastian stood on the balcony, taking a deep drag of his cigarette, the veins on his forehead bulging.

At this moment, his assistant Dominic called. "Mr. Winters, the company's firewall has been attacked, and our

chip technology data has been stolen."
