The Billionaire's True Heiress From Fake Jewel to Real Crown novel Chapter 589

“What father? My dad died ages ago. Who even are you supposed to be?”

He said it without a hint of hesitation, completely disowning him.

Roth was never going to recognize this man as his father anyway.

Before Danny got married, he worked hard running a stall selling rough stones. He seemed like a go-getter. When he first got married, he treated his wife pretty well. But after tHeiress kid was born, someone roped him into gambling, and that was the start of the end.

Everything flipped upside down.

He started drinking all the time, lashing out at his wife and kid, trading hard work for living off his wife's income. If she didn’t give him gambling money, he'd go into a rage at home.

Roth grew up surrounded by all that mess. There was no way he would ever call this man his father.

By the time Roth was twelve, he couldn’t take it anymore. He grabbed a kitchen knife and forced his parents to get a divorce. He told them straight up if they didn’t split, he’d knife Danny the next time he passed out drunk.

That was enough to scare Danny for real.

Danny beat him up, then stormed out to go gamble. When he stumbled home the next day and tried to sleep, he opened his eyes and saw his son sitting there, sharpening a knife.

Danny shot upright in bed, completely freaked out and wide awake.

It happened more than once. After a few more times catching Roth sharpening that knife, Danny started thinking maybe the kid wasn’t bluffing. If he didn’t leave, Roth was totally capable of killing him one day.

So Danny caved.

He agreed to the divorce, but insisted on taking all the money in the house. He wanted the house too, but that property belonged to his wife's family and she wasn’t backing down. All the while, Roth stood off to one side, knife in hand, telling Danny if he tried to take the house, he’d just set it and Danny on fire together.

That image alone was enough to terrify Danny down to his bones.

He gave up on the house, grabbed all the cash he could, and ran.
