My Little Sunshine

Chapter 290: 'Dad'

"You have disappointed me so many times, lad." Carston spoke up once he was left alone with his son. "I decided not to confront you about the matter regarding Elena, thinking that you'll change for good. But I was wrong, so wrong that I regret not doing it." He shook his head as he looked at Taylor with disappointment written all over his face. 

"How do you know about Elena?" Taylor finally questioned him as he gained some of his composure back. He hadn't recovered completely from the shock of seeing Adam alive. He still refused to accept the fact that even after trying so much, he couldn't have Stella to himself.

"Because I am the one who made her disappear from Berlin. Not like she needed my help anyways. But I just helped her in getting back to her family, after that, she didn't need my assistance to stay under the radar." Carston answered him as he settled down in the same seat he was sitting in earlier. 

Taking out a manila folder from the side compartment of his seat, he placed it on the table before him. "Have a seat." He pointed to the seat across him and instructed Taylor.

Heaving out a long tired sigh, Taylor complied to his words. Despite being angry with his father for siding with his enemy, he still listened to him. After all, the man before him was the one who had been providing him with every single necessity of life, in fact, much more than that he'd been asking for. He was many things, but being ungrateful wasn't one of them.

"What is it?" In a flat tone, he spoke up, asking Carston to continue with his words. 

"I need you to sign these papers." He opened the manila folder and pushed it towards him. Just sign those spaces which are marked with a small cross, I have already signed them.

Taylor hummed lightly and without asking any further questions, he picked up the pen which was resting in between the folder. He flipped through the pages, signing them one after the other in the required places without bothering to glance at the content. 

"Is that all?" He looked up from the folder and questioned Carston.

"Yes!" Carston closed the folder and looked at him. "Are you not going to ask me what these pages are about?" 

"I am thankful for whatever you have done for me so far. I won't ask you for more." Taylor replied to him as he looked through the small window next to him. 

"These papers state that you don't own Williamson's Tech. any longer, though you'll remain the CEO of the company and still be in charge of the subsidiaries. Half of the properties which used to belong to me, have been allocated for different orphanages and old homes. The remaining half are yours starting from now on." Though he didn't ask for any explanation regarding the papers, Carston still provided him with one. 

"You shouldn't have done what you did to Stella." He added as he shook his head helplessly.

"I know, I shouldn't have. But I wanted to feel loved for once." Taylor spoke up as a sad smile tugged at the corners of his lips. "Looks like I am never going to get that." He added, pitying himself.

"You chose the wrong person. She already had someone in her heart. As for Elena, you cannot force your love on someone who doesn't feel the same way about you. Trust me, it will get you nothing." Carston muttered under his breath. "You will get the right one, lad. Just don't force your love on someone, and no more abducting." 

Taylor nodded his head at his words as all of his hopes of getting Stella to fall in with him left his soul. They were shattered the very moment he saw the spark returning to her eyes when they landed on Adam's figure. 

He had seen her clinging to Adam's figure like he was her life savior as a smile returned to her face. It was the very smile he had grown to so fond of seeing. His eyes were craving to see the same smile on her face, but it was only now that he realized that he could never be the reason behind that smile of hers. And it was this very moment, that he gave up on his feelings for her. 

Breaking the silence which was engulfing the cabin, Taylor spoke up as he shifted his eyes back to his father. 

"You know, I always used to think that if it was my company Stella had joined instead of his, she might have fallen in love with me. Or if I was the one to enter in her life before Adam, I would have been the one she loves. But I was wrong. I was so wrong, Dad." He scoffed. 

"Did you just call me 'Dad'?" Carston spoke up. He wanted to give him a piece of advice, but the only word he could focus on was 'Dad'. It had been long since Taylor referred to him with that title. He wasn't vocal about it, but he missed being called by the title. It made him realize that he still had someone to call family. 

"Yes, and I am sorry." Taylor answered him, rolling his eyes at the old man. 

"I don't think I am the person you need to apologise to." Carston frowned at the sudden apology coming from him.

"I will do that too. But I need to apologise to you first. I am sorry, for everything I have done so far." He shook his head and apologized to him once again. "And the things which I might do in the coming future." He muttered the later part to himself.

"What?" Carston gave him a questioning look as he wasn't able to catch his last sentence. 

"Nothing, Dad!" He gave him a faint smile as he pointed his index finger to the side of his head. "Can we go to a hospital to get it checked? Damn! She didn't hold back." He groaned lightly as he placed his palm over the wound. 

After seeing him groaning in pain, Carston nodded his head in agreement. "Let's get it checked."
