Chapter 111: Chapter 111

Leo’s snide remarks hung invisible tension in the room, making us look at him. The kids were happy with Bright, but suddenly, Leo had spoiled their fun with his bitter words.

He didn’t stop at it and continued with his previous statement.

“I think parents should stop hiring jokers and come up with a permanent solution to tackle their kids.

It isn’t safe to trust strangers.”

Oh, really?

The only thick–skinned jerk in the room was Leo himself, it would be better to send him to an institution to teach him how to talk in a disciplined way.

With such manners, he expected to be the role model of my daughter. I would never let him destroy my daughter’s future. I had done my best to make her a polite and courteous little girl.

Distraught by his interference, I was about to give him a piece of mind when Henry entered the room, he raised his brows.

“Why is everyone silent?”

His query was directed towards Bright, who remained silent instead of defending himself and spoke.

“Well, civilized people know how and where to behave politely and stay silent.

But I don’t mind sharing my views because of Leo’s impressive example.”

Leo was visibly disturbed to see Henry as if a party pooper had ruined his fun. Perhaps, he came with the expectations of bullying Bright and easily got away with it as he wasn’t a contemptuous person.

But Henry was out of syllabus for his exam. My brother didn’t regard Leo’s delicate ego.

thrashed it at once.

and Chapter 111 “I think jokers are better than snakes around u Leo. At least, they love kids, whether they are their own or not.

But unfortunately, snakes don’t feel any love for their blood.”

Henry’s eyes were red with concealed fury as he let out his years of resentment, pointing his finger at Leo.

his “I have heard that a snake–like person asked his wife to k child when she told him about her pregnancy.

Isn’t it bad, Mr. Leo? Shouldn’t we keep our kids away from such a man?

After all, a person who is hostile towards his own child can’t be trusted whatsoever!”

All the blood was drained from Leo’s face at once, becoming pale like the hospital room, his lips parted in a silent surprise.

My brother took advantage of this perfect moment and showed him the mirror of reality. After abandoning his child five years ago, Leo had no right to call him my daughter’s father. He didn’t want a child from me, even when I was married to him.

Then how come he became a loving father now? What changed?

Henry meticulously saved us from Leo’s razor–sharp tongue and revealed his intentions, killing two birds with one stone. He was flustered to hear about his extraordinary conduct.

Given the circumstances, it was enough to shame Leo and shut his nonsense permanently; however, Henry had some more cards to outclass him. It was like he made up his mind to settle all the scores today.

“As you mentioned parents, Leo. Let’s talk about Zoe’s mother. Where is she?

Don’t you think Melody should be here to look after her family?”

Henry deliberately brought up the topic of Melody, Leo’s lover, who had been with him for the previous five years. It was weird that he still didn’t bail her out of the prison, they were equal partners in crimes. More precisely, if he didn’t allow her, Melody could never have attacked me in the past.

My brother wanted to give Leo a reminder that e had a family as well, and I would never consider going back to him. He was asking mor questions about Melody, but the darkness of grief overshadowing Zoe’s innocence ended this squabble for me. I spoke up.

Zoe, your dad is here. What about 1 pack some snacks for you so that you can enjoy them later?”

Bright bought two bags full of juice boxes and snacks for Jane, so a goodie bag for Zoe wouldn’t make a dent in the stockpile.

Just like a kid, Zoe was distracted by candies and chocolates, he sincerely thanked Bright.

you, uncle. I love candy.”

“Thank you, Bright gently patted Zoe’s head and smiled in response.

“Any time, Zoe. But don’t eat all the candies in one sitting. You can take one piece a day.”

Bright then taught him that candies could cause cavities, asking him to be patient. That was when Leo raised his voice after a long silence.

“Excuse me, Laura. Can I have a word with you in private?”

In a short time, he composed himself, returning to his cold, aloof look. I didn’t mind listening to him and went to the adjacent empty room.

“Take a look at it, Laura!”

He took out an envelope from his pocket and handed it to me.

“This is my lawyer’s suggestion for the next course of action after the DNA test.

As it has been proven that Jane is my daughter, want to be a part of her life. I have already missed it so much. So, H He left his sentence incomplete, letting me read that notice. A chill ran down my spine to read the options.

“Custody battle in court, weekly visits, or shared custody.”
