Albert Melville was holding a paternity test report. He risked another look at it and was again bruised by the cold, piercing conclusion on it.

He pounded the steering wheel hard and wailed in his car.

According to the test, his twin kids had two biological fathers.

The girl was the child of another man, and the boy was his.

As a general practitioner in the Inpatient Department of MacPherson Hospital, Albert knew very well what that meant.

Her wife had cheated on him! The existence of the twins was solid evidence! She had cheated on him in the most disgusting way he could think of.

The first time he had sex with his wife, he remembered, was on their wedding day. And the next month, she got knocked up.

They had gone abroad for their honeymoon the second day after the wedding, and they had been alone during the honeymoon. So if she had slept with another guy, she could only do it on their wedding day.

And Albert and that unknown guy had almost boned the same woman at the same time.

What an insufferable humiliation!

"Isabel, why did you do this to me?"

Known as the most beautiful woman in City J, Isabel Melville, his 28-year-old wife, was a deputy director in the Finance Department of the JL Company.

Albert was poor four years ago when he just graduated from medical school at JD University. By chance, he met his senior schoolmate, Isabel. The two fell in love soon and got married.

"I come from the poor countryside. My parents are old and have run out of their money for me to go to college. After graduation, I met Isabel, the prettiest girl in the college. I married her and have kids with her. I thought I was finally settled in City J. I thought I was blessed. But in the end, it is just a scam!"

"Do you love me?"

"Why did you lie to me?"

"Why were you with another man on our wedding day? Why did you humiliate me in such a way?"

"I have been fooled for four years. Four years! I'm so stupid!"

...

Albert didn't know how long he had been in the car until he was startled by a string of phone calls from the twins' kindergarten teacher.

He collected himself and realized it was half-past six already after he put it through. The kids were two still in kindergarten. The teacher could not reach Isabel, so she called him.

"Darling, I got a dinner party at the company tonight, and I must be there. I'll come home later, so remember to pick the kids up."

Albert was a bit disappointed when he thought of what Isabel had told him.

For several times, Isabel had told Albert that she would come home late with excuses of the activities in her company. She always claimed she needed to work overtime, or she said she was going to hang out with her colleagues and friends. She left every time after simply informing him.

In retrospect, Isabel was very likely to be with the other guy when she was out. Never worried that his wife would betray him, Albert was settled when he took care of his children at home, read medical books, and wrote theses.

Albert didn't even know how he got to the kindergarten and how he picked up his child.

When he got home and looked at the sofa that had been there in the past four years, the pictures of Isabel and her lover fooling around on it appeared in Albert's mind. The sofa, the carpet, the table, the kitchen, and even the bed in their bedroom... It was his home, but it was invaded.

Attacked by a wave of nausea, Albert rushed into the bathroom and almost spewed his gut up.

"Dad... Take the tissue."

A soft, young voice came from behind him. It was his daughter, Veronica Melville.

"Get out!"

Albert was touched first because his daughter was so sweet. But the next second, when it occurred to him that he was not the girl's father, Albert was attacked by another surge of disgust!

He pushed the girl away. To his surprise, she fell to the ground.

She knocked her head on the floor and burst into tears out of pain.

"You don't love me now, Dad! You don't care about me anymore!"

'I'm not your dad. Your dad is...' Albert almost shouted it out. But at the sight of the innocent look on the girl's face, he felt his heart softened. This was the baby girl he had loved and taken good care of in the past three years!

'Isabel betrayed me. Her bastard lover humiliated me. But the child is innocent...' Albert went over and picked up his daughter. With Veronica in his arms, he couldn't hold back the tears anymore.

"Don't cry, Dad. Don't cry. I don't feel pain now. I'll be good. I'll be a good girl."

The little girl was frightened by her father's reaction. She cried even harder while she was comforting him.

His son, Nelson Melville, came over with a tablet in his hand. The boy adjusted the green glasses that helped correct his vision and shook his head. "Dad, you're drunk. I'm telling Mom and asking her to teach you a lesson!"

Albert looked over his shoulder at him with watery eyes. The boy was his own son.
