Chapter 295 Have A Try
Barry had put on fresh and clean clothes, and walked into Ray''s ward.
His son had just woken up not long ago. Sh, who sat beside Ray, watched her son intently. "Ray,
how are you feeling? Is there anything wrong with your eyes?"
"Mom, I''m fine." Ray shook his head and looked away. As he did so, he saw Barry standing at the
door of the ward. He opened his mouth and called in a weak voice, "Uncle..."
Before he fainted, he seemed to have heard his Uncle Barry say that he was his father. Was it real
or did he just hear it wrong?
Sh followed Ray''s gaze. When she saw Barry, she felt a little embarrassed, making her quickly
stand up. "Mr. Gu."
Barry swallowed hard and nodded at her. "Hi. How is Ray?"
"He''s fine."
"That''s good then." Barry walked over and looked at his son with concerned expression. "Are your
eyes okay? Can you see clearly?"
"Yes. I can see with no problem." Ray nodded. He intended to say something but stopped at the
second thought. "What''s wrong?" Barry read Ray''s expression and realized that something was
bothering him at a nce. "What do you want to ask?"
"Are you really my father?"
Ray asked straightforwardly. Hearing that, Sh instinctively called Ray''s name in embarrassment.
"Ray! Why did you..."
"Yes, I am." Before Sh could even finish her question, Barry answered while nodding. "I... I''m
your father."
Sh bit her lips, and tears welled up in her eyes. Fate yed a big joke on her. After going
through so much, she did not know whether to be sad or moved by the scene in front of her.
"Are you truly my father? For real?" Ray propped himself up into sitting position and Sh quickly
assisted him. "Mom, is Uncle... Is he telling the truth?"
She looked at Barry''s facial expression for a long time before answering with a nod. "Yes, it''s true."

"Then why didn''t you tell me before? You have known it for a long time, haven''t you?" The more
Ray spoke, the angrier he became. "Why didn''t you tell me?! Do you want to abandon me? Just
because I couldn''t see?"
"No, Ray! It''s not like that!" Sh hastily exined, "We just knew it recently." "Yes, I..." Barry''s
eloquence seemed a little hazy at the moment. "I just knew recently that you''re my son. I didn''t
abandon you. I will never do that."
Ray''s eyes turned red. Nevertheless, he tried his best to hold back his tears. He used to dream of
having a father. But now that his father appearedte and hid the truth from him, he did not know
what to feel.
"Ray, I will take good care of you in the future." Barry licked his lips and continued, "I really didn''t
know about your existence until recently. Can you forgive me?"
"No!" Ray pulled over the quilt and buried himself under it. Under the sheets, he said in a low and
pained voice, "You both! Get out! I said get out! I don''t want to see you!"
"Ray, don''t do that." Sh reached out tofort him.
"Mom, you go out too!" he shouted fiercely, but it was obvious that he was choking on sobs.
"Okay, Okay." Holding back her tears, she nodded. "Fine. I''ll go out first. I won''t disturb you for a
while. I''ll wait for you outside." She stood up and looked at Ray before walking out reluctantly.
With a worried look on his face, Barry followed Sh out of the ward.
With a click, the door of the ward was closed. Seeing that his parents had gone, Ray began to let
out his anguish under the quilt.
"I''m going to see the other two kids," Barry said to Sh.
"I... I''ll go to see them too!" She stammered. "Manager Lu hasn''t woken up yet. I wonder if Alick and
his sister are worried about their mommy."
"Okay," he replied.
"Thank you. Thank you for saving Ray." While walking in the hall of the hospital, Sh abruptly
spoke in a low voice.
"He is my son as well." Gritting his teeth, Barry hurried his steps. In no time, they were able to reach
the ward of the twins. He then opened the door as soon as he reached it.
With her head down, Sh walked in quietly.
"Daddy Barry!" When Alick saw Barry, he greeted him right away.
"Alick!" Barry walked to the bedside. Alick then broke away from Archer and threw himself into
Barry''s arms.
"Daddy Barry, where is Ray?" asked Elissa innocently.
"He is resting in his ward," he answered briefly, but his words made his face gloomy. "Daddy Barry,
you are Ray''s father!" Elissa said excitedly. All of a sudden, her expression changed and she
added, "But why didn''t you tell me?"
"Because I just knew it recently."
"Is Ray also Mommy''s son?" asked Elissa again.
"Of course not," Victor answered with a smile. "Ray is Aunt Sh''s son."
"So, did Daddy Barry and Aunt Sh get married?" asked Elissa curiously. Looking around at the
stunned faces of everyone else, she felt even more confused.
"No," Barry answered with embarrassment.
"Oh, right." Elissa nodded as if she had understood everything now. "Daddy Barry is going to marry
Mommy. But why does Daddy Barry have a baby with Aunt Sh?"
Awkward silence hung in the ward.
"The world of adults is reallyplicated!" Alick eximed.
"You are right." Archer nodded in agreement and said, "It''s tooplicated for you kids."
"Can I go to see Ray?" Elissa jumped off the bed and rushed out of the ward before she could even
get permission. She happily walked in the corridor. As she passed by her parents'' wards, she gazed
at them for quite some time before walking towards Ray''s.
"Daddy Barry," Alick stared at Barry''s face and noted, "you seem unhappy."
"A little," he answered and rubbed Alick''s head.
"Why is that?"
"Because..." Barry thought for a while, but no words seemed toe out of his mouth.
"Well, I''ll go out first." Archer touched his nose and added, "I''ll go check on Lucas and see if my
Aisha has already left."
"I''m going to find Elissa." Victor also walked out, followed by Ena.
Sh was at a loss, but she seemed to have picked up the cues. She put down her bag and said,
"I''ll go out too."
"Why did everyone leave so suddenly?" Alick asked in confusion.
"What do you think?" Barry asked back.
"They wanted us to talk alone, right?" Alick answered.
"My Alick is so smart." Barry smiled proudly and ruffled the boy''s hair.
"Daddy Barry, can you tell me why you are unhappy?" "I am sad because Ray doesn''t seem to like
me. " Deep loneliness was apparent in Barry''s voice.
"How doesn''t he like Daddy Barry? You are his father!"
"But Daddy Barry was not a good father to Ray." Barry did not care whether Alick could understand
or not. At the moment, he just wanted to speak out his sadness. "I haven''t fulfilled my responsibility
as a father to him. When Ray couldn''t see, I was not around to help him. He lived a hard life."
"Daddy Barry, please take good care of Ray in the future. That way, he''ll like you," encouraged
Alick. "Daddy Barry is awesome! Ray will know that."
"Really?" Barry finally smiled. Who would have thought that a little boy couldfort an adult man?
"Certainly!" Alick nodded enthusiastically and he continued, "I didn''t like my father before, but now I
think he''s Superman!"
Barry nodded in agreement and thought about William. "Right. I almost forgot it. How did you start
to like your father anyway?"
"Hmm. Well, it''s because he likes Mommy so much!"
Mary...
Barry sighed. The sadness in his heart seemed to have returned. "I might not be able to do that. I
can''t make myself like Ray''s mommy."
"Why not? Isn''t Aunt Sh a good woman?"
"Yes, she is a good woman, but—" Before Barry could finish his words, the little boy in front of him
interrupted him.
"Aunt Sh is a good woman. Why can''t Daddy Barry love her?" Alick asked in confusion. "Anyway,
Mommy has Dad now, and Daddy Barry has Aunt Sh. Isn''t it a happy ending?"
Alick''s innocent and uplicated thoughts made Barry burst intoughter. "How about you, Alick?
Are you happy right now?"
"Yes, I am," Alick said sincerely. "I hope that you can be happy too, Daddy Barry!"
"Good boy!" The boy''s enthusiasm melted Barry''s heart so he hugged him tight. "I will."
"Daddy Barry, I know what you should do to make Ray like you!" With a smile on his face, Alick
started to enumerate the things his father had done to him and his sister. "You should buy toys for
Ray! Dad bought toys for us. My sister liked them so much!"
"Is that so? What else?"
"You should spend more time with Ray and tell him stories."
"Not bad. I could do that." Meanwhile in Ray''s ward, Elissa opened the door and walked inside
quietly.
"Don''te in!" Ray shouted.
"Ray, what''s wrong with you?" Hearing the boy''s crying tone, Elissa ran towards him and quickly
climbed onto the bed.
"What are you doing?" Ray was taken aback, which made him to pop his head out of the quilt.
"Don''t! You''ll fall!"
"I''m fine." Elissa smiled reassuringly. Looking at his red and swollen eyes, she asked, "Ray, why are
you crying?"
"I''m not!" Embarrassed, he immediately turned his face away and pouted.
"Fine. I''ll ask Daddy Barry then. He''s your father!
"Don''t go!" Before Elissa could go down, Ray quickly grabbed her hand. "Why do you call him
daddy? Is he your father?"
"He is my daddy, not my father," Elissa answered while shaking her head.
"Has he always been your daddy?" Ray''s heart ached so he looked down.
"Daddy Barry has been my daddy since I was a child."
"But you''re still a child now." "I mean, since I was younger."
"Was he good to you? Is he a good man?"
"Of course!" Elissa nodded right away and said proudly, "He is your father. Of course he is a good
man!"
"But I just knew now that he''s my father. Why didn''t hee see me before? I don''t like him." Ray
recalled the past when his mother was the only one who apanied him. At the thought of it, he
felt even more aggrieved.
"I didn''t have a father before either." Elissa blinked her eyes. She could not understand why Ray
was sad because of his father. "He didn''te to see me either, but I like him very much now."
"How could you not have a father?"
"Because..."
The two kids sat cross-legged on the bed and began to chat. The smile on Ray''s face became
brighter and brighter. Hearing a lot of good things about his father, he felt happy now.
"Ray," said Elissa as she suddenly changed the subject, "from now on, you will be my elder brother.
We can''t get married."
Ray blushed. Although he had no idea why he and Elissa should get married in the future, he did
not question her. Instead, he asked, "Why can''t we get married?" "Because we are both Daddy
Barry''s children. You are my elder brother."
"Yes." Ray bit his lips and touched Elissa''s hair. "You are my younger sister."
"Ha ha!" Elissa smiled at him innocently, but she did not understand the look in Ray''s eyes.
Ring! Ring! Ring! Ring! Ring! Ring!
In Alick''s ward, Sh''s phone rang suddenly in her bag.
"Who''s calling?" Alick asked.
Barry shrugged for he did not know either. He stood up and took Sh''s bag to search for her
mobile phone. However, it had stopped ringing as soon as he found it. As he put down her bag, he
identally saw two flight tickets inside.
Barry frowned and took them out with curiosity. A flight of today. Sh Shen and Raymond Shen...
"Daddy Barry, what''s wrong?" Alick asked when he noticed that Barry''s expression had changed.
Barry had already seemed happy a while ago, but his expression turned dark and gloomy again
upon seeing the tickets.
"Nothing." He hastily took out the tickets and said to the boy in an urgent tone, "Alick, I have
something to do. I''ll be back." Without waiting for Alick''s response, he rushed out of the ward. He
had just walked out of the room when he saw Sh walking towards him.
"Sh!" he shouted from afar, which made her stop walking immediately.
"Yes?" Stopped in tracks, she watched as Barry strode towards her.
"What''s this?" He angrily held up the tickets and waved them on her face.
Sh''s eyes widened in shock, and she was unable to utter an intelligible answer. "Well, I..."
"You want to take my son away?" Barryughed sardonically and continued, "If nothing had
happened today, would you have already left? "
Sh was stunned at Barry''s audacity.
"Were you nning to take him away like this? Huh?! Answer me!" he asked again. As he spoke,
his voice seemed angrier.
Sh nodded. All of a sudden, she finally felt the courage to yell back. "Or what? Let Ray know that
you are his father and then watch you marry someone else? How could you be so mean?!"
She did not care about anything now. She was ready to face Barry''s fury head on.
However, instead of arguing back, Barry just sighed helplessly. He looked at Sh in the eye and
said slowly, "Let''s... let''s have a try, shall we?
"What do you mean?"
"I said, let''s have a try. Let''s try to be together." He turned his face away and said awkwardly, "We
already have a son anyway. We might as well give it a try."
Hearing that, Sh covered her mouth to stop her from screaming. What Barry had said was an
absolute shock for her. She stood in the hallway, petrified in spot, unable to move or speak.
