Continue Regular Chapter Reading Below Chapter 138 Harper For a few seconds , my brain went blank and I stopped blinking , trying to process what Dean had just said to me . Then , a short , forced laugh escaped my lips . " Okay ... " I trailed off as I blinked rapidly , shaking my head . " That's ... wow .

That's definitely one way to start a conversation after not seeing each other for a long time . " He didn't smile and that made my stomach twist . " No ... seriously ? " I added , still half laughing because my mind refused to believe what I had just heard and I immediately became uncomfortable . " Look , you can't just show up and drop a line like that . What are you even talking about ? " Under the table , I lowered my hand to my lap because it was now trembling .

" Please tell me that this is some weird joke ." I held my breath , hoping he'd burst into laughter or something , but the expression on his face didn't change . There was no humor at all . Then , his hand reached into his jacket without saying a word to me . I wondered what he was up to this time . He pulled out a small , worn photograph and I didn't think too much of it , but that was until he slid it across the table . I didn't even immediately look down at it as I watched the small smile form on his lips , like he was delivering something heavy .

He leaned back in his seat and crossed his arms and I knew at that moment that he was waiting for me to check out the photograph . The moment I looked down at it , I held my breath as my eyes grew wide . I slowly picked it up , bringing it closer to my face as my hand trembled . My lips quickly curved into a smile as I placed my other hand on my chest , like I could feel my heart warming up . I was looking at a photograph of my mother from a long time ago . She was young , glowing and so beautiful . Her smile was bright and carefree . It was a version of her I had never seen in real life .

Then , my eyes drifted to the man standing beside her . He was tall and expensive looking . He reminded me so much of Dean . They had the same eyes , jawline and smile . " Is this your dad ? " He nodded in agreement . " Yes , his name is Landon Beauregard and I'm Dean Beauregard . My last name isn't Johnson as I made you believe all this time . What's important is that this is our father ." I didn't even bother to comment on his response as I just stared at the picture for a few more seconds . It was only when he leaned forward that I paid attention to his face again .

" Years ago , those two were a couple , " he began . " But his family was against it . He was next in line to inherit the entire Beauregard business empire and they made it clear that if he married someone like your mother , someone with no status , he'd lose everything . " " Did he fight for her ? " I asked , even though part of me knew what the answer would be . I confirmed it when Dean took a few seconds to respond . He looked down at the table , his jaw tightening , " No , " he finally said . " He didn't . He chose the empire and that was the end of it . They never saw each other again .

" As soon as I heard that , my fingers loosened around the photo and I set it down carefully . I still couldn't stop looking at it as I wondered if he was really the reason my mother lost that smile . No matter how hard I tried to think about it , I'd never seen her smile like that before . " There's something else I need to tell you , " he said , grabbing my attention again . " I didn't meet you for the first time the day we bumped into each other on your morning run ." My head shot up fast with raised eyebrows . " What ?

" " I'd been in town earlier for work and that's when I saw you at a café . You were standing outside and you had a strong resemblance to the woman in this picture . I didn't know your name or anything about you , but I couldn't let it go . So I did some digging until I found your address . And then we ran into each other on your jog . It wasn't totally accidental . I made sure I was on that trail . I just needed to know if it was you . " That should've felt flattering and meaningful , but instead , it felt like someone coming into my life without my permission .

" And once we got to know each other , " he continued with a soft voice , " and you told me you didn't know who your father was , that's when everything connected and- " " I have to go , " I whispered and even then , my voice sounded far away . I abruptly rose to my feet , the chair scraping loudly against the floor . A few heads turned in our direction , but that didn't even matter to me . I grabbed my purse with trembling hands , moving fast and not caring that people were still staring at me . " Harper ! " he called out to me with a pang of desperation .

I didn't slow down or look back even for a second . Not only did I need to get out of there and get some air , I needed to get away from him . When I stepped outside , I intended to get a cab , but I looked across the road and spotted Maddox's car parked right there . I didn't question why he had come back . I was just glad to see him . He stepped out in a rush while keeping his eyes on me and I just wanted to run to him and tell him what had happened , but there was traffic in the way . I looked back and spotted Dean catching up , making me shake my head . " Harper- " " No !

" I said firmly as I shook my head . " Can you just hear the rest of what I have to say ? " Part of me wanted to know , but it was already too much to process and I couldn't hear any more . Then , the sudden honking in unison from the road caught my attention and I turned , only to spot Maddox crossing the busy road like a mad man and even rushing past a heavy truck that almost ran into him . When he made it to my side , I shook my head in disbelief and said , " Are you cra- " I gasped when he gently moved me out of the way and punched Dean in the jaw so hard that he fell to the ground .

Conclusion In the aftermath of the revelation, Harper's world felt like it was spiraling out of control.
