' He has the same eyes as his mother and features similar to his father. How could I not see it before? '
He thought gazing at Samuel's features.
A voice from his conscience came, ' Because you were intoxicated with the thrill of acquiring this whole empire to clearly see what was right in front of you. '
He sighed and looked at his children. His son uninterested and his daughter astonished.
" Are you sick, father? " Maria said unfolding her arms.
" What do you mean? Can't I apologise for my mistake? " Jay asked offended by their response.
" You never apologise, ever. " Mark spoke this time, his voice dripping venom.
Jay's right eye twitched. They were his children after all. It wouldn't be easy fooling them.
" Now I am doing it. Can't you accept it? " Jay said with anger.
" We would if it was sincere. You are clearly doing it for your personal gain. How can you expect us to believe you? " Mark replied and walked away.
