All Chapters of I am Not a Poor Daddy: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

“Rendy, I… I’m not sure about this,” Sara muttered softly, her voice hoarse. She lowered her head, not daring to look at Rendy. “If we open this in court, Sebastian could turn the tables. The court could see me as the guilty party for hiding the truth. I could lose a lot more than we thought.”Rendy looked at Sara calmly, noticing the anxiety that was clouding her mind. He understood how hard this decision was for Sara. While a DNA test might seem like the perfect solution on paper, the reality in the courtroom could be different. The courts were not always focused on absolute truth, especially if past lies could be used by opponents to tarnish Sara’s image. “I understand your hesitation, Sara,” Rendy said in a soft yet firm tone. He moved closer, sitting closer to Sara. “This is not an easy step. But trust me, we can come up with a solid strategy. I will make sure that the focus remains on Dinda’s well-being, not past mistakes.”Sara took a deep breath,

That day, officers from the Child Protection Commission arrived at Sara and Rendy’s house to interview Dinda. Sara greeted them at the door with a polite smile, a little anxious but trying to look calm. Rendy was nearby, making sure everything went smoothly. The Child Protection Commission officer, a friendly woman named Mrs. Anita, asked if they could speak to Dinda privately in the living room.After the request was made, Sara felt a little trembling in her heart. She knew that the conversation would have big consequences for Dinda and them as parents. However, she tried to think positively and hoped that everything would go well. Rendy, beside her, tried to provide moral support by nodding and giving a reassuring smile. "I understand this may be a difficult situation for you," said Mrs. Anita softly, trying to lighten the mood. "But we just want to listen to Dinda's story and make sure that she is safe." Although Mrs. Anita tried to make her comfortable, Sara a

"I will not give up," he said finally, trying to channel all the conviction he had into his words. "This is about Dinda's future, and I will not stop until I get justice. Whatever it takes, I will do it."His lawyer smiled thinly, though the tiredness was still evident on his face. It was not a smile of victory, but rather a kind of support that he wanted to give to his client in her predicament. "Okay," he said, "we will work hard to turn this around. What we need to do now is show that Dinda needs her father—and that you can provide the love and stability she needs."Sebastian nodded firmly, though his heart was still filled with anxiety. In his chest, feelings of worry and love wrestled in an endless struggle. Still, one thing was for him: he would not back down for the sake of his beloved daughter.---In his office, Sebastian stepped into the room with heavy steps. The air in his office felt more stuffy than usual, and his head was fill

Lila nodded slowly, her eyes soft but filled with emotion. "I really thank you. If it weren't for you, maybe I would have given up and left this company, maybe even my dream of becoming a successful person."Sebastian smiled bitterly, feeling the pain behind Lila's praise. "I'm happy to be able to help, but also sad that something like that happened in this company. At that time, I felt that this company was not worthy of continuing anyone's dreams."Lila looked at him gratefully. "It was your presence that changed all that. Since you took over, I and many other staff feel more appreciated. You are not only a leader, but also someone who listens."Sebastian just chuckled, looking at his almost empty glass. "I'm not a perfect leader, Lila. My family's problems... I've never found a solution until now."Lila put her hands on the table, trying to give him support. "We all have problems. Even the strongest ones. There's nothing wrong with feeling tra

The day of the trial finally arrived, and Sebastian sat in the cold visitor's chair, looking at the room with mixed feelings. Although the courtroom was quite large, the day felt cramped and full of pressure. The high ceiling that usually made the room feel spacious actually added to the unbearable sense of intimidation. Sebastian's heart was beating fast, its rhythm seeming to accompany his increasing anxiety. His gaze was straight ahead, but occasionally, he glanced at Sara and Rendy, who had come as Sara's lawyer, his wife, sitting a few rows in front of him. Sebastian tried to calm himself down, but every beat of his heart seemed to remind him how important today was. Dinda, his beloved daughter, was at the center of all this. He remembered the beautiful moments with Dinda, the laughter and happiness they shared, and how hard it was to imagine life without her presence. Sara looked calm, but Sebastian knew very well that behind her calm face, there was the sa
