Chapter 53
Heartbreak Brings Mr. Right
But unbeknownst to Benny, before leaving, Juanita had asked Lindsey if she wanted to go with her.
It was Lindsey who chose to stay with Benny because she didnât want her father to be too Lonely.
Juanita came from a rich family and had a successful career.
Lindsey couldâve lived a better life with her.
But Lindsey had chosen to live with Benny, because in her innocent, childish mind, she naively thought that her mother wouldnât be Lonely because she had her brother.
Her dad, however, would have no one if she chose to live with her mom, too.
Back then, for her dadâs sake, she had been so harsh with her mom.
After the divorce, he didnât allow her to contact her mom, so she truly severed all ties with her.
Later, her dadâs company gradually developed, and he became busier as a result.
Then, after Kendra and her daughter joined their family, he had even less time to accompany Lindsey.
Now, her dad didnât trust her.
He even went so far as to kick her out of the house for the sake of Kendra!
Lindseyâs heart was broken.
She looked at her father coldly, feeling that the latter was like a stranger.
Lindsey took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down.
âDo you really want me to leave?â
âIf you want to stay, then apologize to Kendra!â
Benny wanted to make Lindsey yield, but he shouldâve known better than to expect his stubborn daughter would give in.
Lindsey raised her chin defiantly and sneered, âDream on!â
The moment Lindsey turned away from Benny, tears welled up in her eyes, but she didnât regret her decision.
Seeing that she was actually going to leave, Benny was furious.
âYou really are as stubborn as your mother! Donât even think about coming back here!â
Watching Lindsey leave without looking back, Benny slumped onto the sofa like a deflated balloon.
However, his clenched fists still trembled with anger.
âWhy would I have such an ungrateful daughter?â
Kendra sat down next to him and patted him on the chest gently.
âShh, calm down, honey.
Forget about Lindsey; you still have your other daughter.
Shelia is much more obedient than her.
Speaking of Shelia, I heard that she just signed a contract with a reputable agency.
Maybe sheâll become a big star someday.
Iâm sure sheâll make you proud.
â
Benny sighed.
Indeed, Shelia Stewart had always been obedient and sensible, but she wasnât his biological daughter.
Benny reached out to touch Kendraâs belly, silently placing all his hopes on this unborn child.
Kendra seemed to read his mind.
She pouted sadly and murmured, âBenny, we all know that the company hasnât been doing so well lately.
Lindsey not only got a lot of money from her mother, but she also got engaged to a wealthy man.
However, sheâs not doing anything to help us get through these financial difficulties.
Do you think thatâs why she wanted to leave? Does she think weâre a burden to her?âHer words successfully pushed Bennyâs buttons.
