Chapter 289: Chapter 290

Chapter 290 Frank added, “Kassidy disappeared for quite a while while she went to the bathroom. Drake and were going crazy looking for her, and we were about to report it to you when Kassidy walked out from inside the Hill Group.”

After the two people finished speaking, they both nervously stared at Theo.

Theo’s gaze shifted to Kassidy.

Kassidy, however, acted maturely holding Drake’s hand with one hand and Frank’s hand with the other, giving them a reassuring look. “Uncles, you can go downstairs. I will explain this matter to Dad.”

How could Drake and Frank dare to get up and leave without Theo’s instructions?

Kassidy was stunned, pouting with a sense of disappointment.

Theo then waved at Frank Drake and said, “Get up.”

Drake and Frank clumsily got up, and the two of them timidly backed away.

Theo looked directly into Kassidy’s eyes and asked, “Did you go see him?”

Kassidy did not hide and nodded, “Daddy, you are really smart. You can’t be fooled by anything.”

15:50 Chapter 290 “Did your mom know that you went to see him?” Theo’s face. darkened.

Kassidy shook her head, “Daddy, didn’t dare tell Mommy.”

“Why don’t you dare to tell Mommy?” Theo’s voice was solemn. “Is it because you also think that Mommy would never agree to let you see her? That’s why you want to act first and seek forgiveness later?”

Kassidy nodded obediently.

Theo sarcastically said, “You are not that old, but you sure know how to make decisions for yourself.”

Kassidy bit her lip, her face determined. “Although I went to see him, I wouldn’t contact him to rekindle our old relationship.”

Theo stood up, his voice icy cold. ‘If your mother doesn’t like what you’re doing, you shouldn’t do it.”

After saying that, Theo turned around and went into the house.

Kassidy, on the other hand, kept sighing repeatedly.

Inside the house, Thea absentmindedly picked vegetables.

Kassidy listened attentively to the conversation between her and Theo.

At that moment, I couldn’t describe what I was feeling in my heart.

There was surprise, astonishment, disappointment, and a faint concern about Kassidy’s behavior 15 50 Chapter 290 When Theo came in, she looked at him anxiously.

Theo asked her, “Will my sister resent me for being strict with her?”

Thea gently said, “You are her father, it is not excessive no matter how you discipline her.”

Theo smiled and said, “That’s good.”

Theo didn’t say much, but instead he stomped up the stairs.

Kassidy walked in slowly, while Thea lowered her head to pick vegetables. She ignored her.

Kassidy walked up to Thea, tears in her eyes, and said, “Mommy, did I make Daddy angry?”

Thea asked, “Why did you go to see him?”

“I just wanted to warn him not to disturb our lives,” Kassidy said, her eyes shimmering with tears, looking pitiful.

Thea said, “If you really didn’t want to see him, why did you voluntarily go to meet him? Kassidy, your excuse may deceive yourself, but it can’t deceive us.”

Kassidy anxiously grabbed Thea’s hand and said, “Mommy, please don’t be angry with me. I was... I was just feeling unsatisfied.”

“What is there to be unwilling about?”

“I just couldn’t accept it. I was his daughter, how could he be so heartless and push me to the brink of death for the sake of a wicked woman? Is my life so worthless in his eyes?”

15:50 Chapter Thea sighed, “So what do you want to prove? That he still loved you? That he didn’t intentionally want to kill you?”

He Kassidy lowered her gaze and said, “He apologized to me. also said that he would compensate me for the rest of his life.”

Thea looked at the stubborn and unwilling Kassidy, as if she saw her former self.

At that time, she was filled with hatred, and no one could stop her from seeking revenge.

She knew that she couldn’t stop Kassidy.

“Kassidy, I don’t care what you want to prove, I just want to remind you one thing: cherish the happiness in front of you,” Thea said and silently went into the kitchen.

The neon lights at midnight were particularly dazzling. The night market in Capital was always bustling and prosperous.

This was Nathan’s first time at the night market. On the stalls of the night market, there were various kinds of figurines. Nathan squatted on the ground and took a long time to choose, finally selecting a precious item: a small white rabbit.

He remembered that Kassidy’s zodiac sign was the rabbit.

He reminded the boss to pack carefully, and then brought the gift box of the little white rabbit home.

When Nathan returned home, it was already after ten o’clock at night. Surprisingly, Victoria was still awake, sitting alone on the sofa in the living room, waiting for Nathan to come home.

Nathan saw her, looking indifferent.

“Why weren’t you sleeping?”

Victoria took the initiative to approach him. She gently took his bag, helped him take off his coat, and bent down to change his shoes.

She humbly said, “Nathan, I have thought for a long time. Our relationship is not easy to come by, and we should not act impulsively. When there are problems in a relationship, we should repair it properly instead of giving up easily.”

Nathan didn’t say anything, and Victoria didn’t know if his attempts to please her with his humble attitude had moved her even a little bit.

She muttered to herself again, “I know, I was spoiled by my father and I wasn’t a gentle and considerate wife. From now on, I will learn to be a good wife. As long as you are willing, I can do the laundry and cook for you.”

Nathan remained silent without saying a word.

Victoria’s face grew increasingly worse, and her humility did not receive a response from Nathan, which left her feeling extremely discouraged. “Nathan, are you sentencing me to death?”

After a long time, Nathan sighed and said, “Our relationship has already fallen apart. No matter what you do, it’s all in vain.”

Victoria sobbed.

Nathan gently pushed her aside and silently went upstairs.

Returning to his bedroom, he placed the gift box on the bedside Chapter 200 table and then entered the bathroom.

Victoria came in and saw the exquisite packaging box, emitting a sparkling light. It was clearly a gift for a girl.

Victoria’s body trembled as she concluded that Nathan had cheated on her.

She felt a great sense of fear and unease in her heart.

She did not allow herself to become an abandoned woman. She walked slowly to the gift box and reached out to pick it up.

Glancing back at the bathroom, I made up my mind and tore off the tape from the gift box with a swift rip. Then, I opened the gift box.

When she saw a rabbit lying in the gift box wearing a pink dress and a diamond necklace, a jealous glint shot out of her eyes.

Nathan has been complaining about being broke lately, only giving her the bare minimum for living expenses each month. But he somehow has money to buy such expensive figurines? Victoria’s chest was filled with the smell of vinegar.

The sound of rushing water in the bathroom suddenly stopped, and when Nathan walked out wearing a bathrobe, Victoria was still immersed in feelings of abandonment.

When Nathan saw her open his precious gift without permission, he got the angriest he had ever been in his life.

He snatched the figurine from Victoria’s hand aggressively, ensuring the safety of the gift. Afterward, he started scolding 15 Chapter 390 Victoria, “Who ‘allowed you to enter my room? Don’t touch my things without permission in the future.”

Victoria’s gentle and well–behaved new image instantly. collapsed as she screamed in despair, “What are you feeling guilty about? You clearly said before that what’s yours is mine, and I can touch anything of yours.”

Nathan strongly opposed going back, saying, “The past is the past, and the present is the present.”

Victoria rushed forward, crying, to snatch the toy from Nathan’s hand and said, “I forbid you to give gifts to other women. This is unfair to me. Nathan, your money is our joint property as a married couple, and if you spend it on other women, I will file for divorce in court.”

The figurine fell to the ground and shattered into pieces.
