However, when he heard Susan say that she wanted to celebrate her birthday with Victor, Joey’s heart complained.
At such a young age, Joey already figured out that the reason why
Rachel and Quintin always threw him a grand birthday party every year was that he didn’t have a father to celebrate it with him.
Till now, Joey had never experienced having a father by his side on his birthday.
How could he not be hurt when his biological father, who had no idea about his existence, would celebrate another woman’s birthday?
The more Joey thought about it, the sadder he felt.
“What?” Confused with his sudden pause, Victor frowned.
“Well, that’s because I haven’t celebrated my birthday once.
I want to have a birthday party this time.” Of course, it was a Lie.

The look on his face made Joey nervous.
After all, he was guilty of lying.
“Okay, okay.
I lied.
I celebrated my birthday every year…
But my daddy was never there.”
Daddy?
Did he mean Odin?
If Joey hadn’t mentioned about his father, Victor would have forgotten that he was Odin’s child.
“When I was younger, I used to be jealous of other children who celebrate their birthdays with their parents, because my dad was never there for my birthday.
I know now that my daddy is dead.
I…
I don’t have a father anymore…” Loneliness crossed Joey’s eyes as he spoke.
“I have never seen him and don’t even know what he looks Like.
Lukas toldthat you looked like him.
That’s why I want you to celebrate my birthday withand be my daddy for a day.”
Silence filled the room after that.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmVictor stared at Joey’s face as if he was checking if the child was lying or not.
“Okay.” In the end, Victor couldn’t say no to the child in front of him.
It was late night in early winter.
The wind howled, biting coldly into people’s skin, and all of a sudden, the rain began to pour heavily.
The Maybach slowly drove into the Sue Garden and stopped carefully on the open space in front of the marbled steps.
Lukas opened the car door and got out of the passenger seat.
He opened an umbrella, saying, “Letcarry you in, Joe.
It’s raining and the ground is wet.”
Seeing that the temperature was going to drop again, Lukas specially packed clothes for Victor and sent them to the hospital in the afternoon.
He also picked Joey up and brought him back to the Sue
Garden.
Hearing this, the driver quickly got out of the car and walked around the front to hold the umbrella for Lukas.
But before he could take the umbrella, Joey got out of the car, shaking his head.
