Chapter 584

When their car arrived at Beach City, Renee and Mr. Q parted ways.

Renee had long been looking forward to this moment, but her silly daughter had a sad look on her face.

Abby clung to Mr. Q and wouldn’t let go.

“Daddy, are you going away already? I don’t want you to go away. Can you come home with us and stay with me and Mommy and Adie?”

“Well…”

’No!”

Before Mr. Q could answer, Renee sharply refused.

“Why not? Shouldn’t Daddy, Mommy, and the children live together?”

“Abby, listen to Mommy. He’s not a good person. Not only did you play with him, you even want to bring him home? That’s like inviting a wolf into a sheep pen, so no.”

“But I think Mr. Q is a good person. He doesn’t seem like a bad guy. He won’t hurt us. Not only that, he’ll even treat us well and take care of us.”

Abby’s sweet little face was filled with trust for Mr. Q.

Although she had spent less than two days with Mr. Q, she could tell that he was sincerely kind to her.

It was the same type of kindness that Mommy showed her, without any bad intentions mixed in. She could tell.

“Why won’t you listen to me? No means no.”

Renee was getting a bit mad. She crossed her arms and said, “If you like him so much, you can go with him, but I won’t be your Mommy anymore.”

Upon hearing that, Abby immediately released Mr. Q’s hand and hugged Renee’s thigh. She said cutely, “Mommy, don’t be jealous. Abby will always love you the most. No one can replace you in Abby’s heart. If I have to choose between the two of you. I’ll definitely choose you!”

“It’s too late! Sweet words are useless now!”

Renee turned her head, still angry.

Hmph, she’s not that easy to coax. She’s been feeling jealous the whole journey back. If she didn’t let Abby know the seriousness of the situation, how could she still keep Abby in check in the future?

Mr. Q crouched down and said to Abby with a faint smile, “Then, I guess it’s goodbye for now, Abby. If we keep going, your Mommy might blow up like a pufferfish.”

“You do know Mommy well, Daddy. She’s like a child and needs to be coaxed. Don’t worry, I’ll calm her down and we can live together after that!”

Abby spoke confidently and waved goodbye to Mr. Q.

“Okay, Daddy will wait for your good news!”

Mr. Q waved to the little girl with a gentle smile.

Throughout the whole ordeal, Renee indeed looked like a child who was throwing a tantrum.

Abby, on the other hand, handled it extremely well. She comforted Renee all the way, hugging her face and kissing her cheeks again and again, telling her, “Mommy, don’t be mad, okay? I wasn’t being serious with Mr. Q, you’re my true love. After all, he’s a newcomer, so I have to make him feel welcome. If not, he’ll run away. Don’t you think so?”

‘Then just let him run away. He’s not a good person. Why do you have to make him feel welcome?”

“I don’t know if he’s a good person, but I think he’s very friendly and I like him very much. Most importantly, I think he’s incredible. He can take care of us and protect us in the future. That way, Mommy won’t have to work so hard anymore…”

Abby expressed her good intentions.

For years, Mommy had been working until late at night every day to support her and her brother. She spent most of her time locked up in the laboratory. It was really hard on her.

Wouldn’t it be great if there were someone who could share the burden with her and who also truly loved her?

Although Abby was a naive little girl, she had a super strong instinct. She could sense that Mr. Q was a good man. Not only that, he was also a very powerful person who loved her mother very much, so she did not want her mother to miss out on him!

“You silly girl, when you grow up, you’ll realize that the only person you can rely on in this world is yourself. Expecting other people to take care of you and protect you will only bring you disappointment.”

Renee rubbed Abby’s head and said in a heavy tone.

Although what she said was cruel, it was a reality that could not be avoided. It was better for Abby to learn it now than to learn it the hard way in the future.
