THE STORY

About The Father I Never Had

Smart and well-behaved, Samuel is the son of Felix and Sylvia, born from a drunken mistake. Since day one, Felix has been cold to him, pouring all his love into Riley—his first love Rayna's son. At age four, Samuel longed for his father’s affection but got scolded while Riley was gently comforted. On his seventh birthday, Felix broke his promise and showed up at Riley's party instead. Heartbroken, Sylvia took Samuel and left. They later met Martin, Samuel's cello teacher, who became the father figure Samuel never had. Life was quiet but full of love. Meanwhile, Felix discovered Rayna's true colors—she used him for money and leaked company secrets. Regret hit him hard. He tried to make amends, even offering money, but Samuel refused. He had already chosen the simple, happy life with Martin and his mom. In the end, Felix could only watch from a distance as Samuel grew up happy without him—silently sending his blessings while living with the consequences of his past.
