Chapter 113 I strived my level best to simplify the complex topic of DNA test, calling it a faulty record to explain the situation to a kid.
Obviously, it was difficult for a little girl to understand this grown upâs mess.
Janeâs round eyes gawked at me as she clutched that teddy bear to her chest, her fingers splayed wide over it.
âWhat are you saying, mommy?
My daddyâs name is Bright. You said that before My heart flipped in my chest, raising fine hair across my body. I felt embarrassed in front of my daughter.
From day one, I taught her to speak the truth, never hiding anything from her as best friend. But today, that unspoken trust was broken by this incident.
Jane cried out in disbelief, âYou are lying, mommy. All the kids in my school have only one daddy and one mommy.
Then how come I have two daddies?
Itâs wrong!â
With that, she started crying, the colorless beads of tears coming out of her eyes throbbed my chest. Seeing me helpless, Bright took over the discussion, and said, âOnly special kids have two daddies, my princess. Like, I am still your daddy, but a stepdaddy and Uncle Leo is your real daddy.
There will be double love and gifts for you, my princess. We will cherish you with our heart.â
Jane,sniffled and held his hand, seeking confirmation.
âAre you leaving me, daddy?â
Chapter 113 Of course not, my princess!â
Bright swiftly embraced her, caressing her head lovingly.
âDaddy canât live without his cute, smiling princess. I can never leave you.
Now smile for daddy.â
He wiped her tears, pacifying her with promises, but Jane was still didnât even like my apology when I expressed my deepest remorse.
angry with me. She âI am so sorry, my little girl. Please forgive mommy. I never wished to lie to you.
In fact, I came to know about this truth a few days ago. Can you please...â
âNo!â
Jane shouted, throwing a tantrum like a typical toddler.
âYou are a bad mommy. Jane is angry with you. And ran away to her room. I looked at her back helplessly. To lighten up my mood, Bright placed his hand on my shoulder and joked.
âJane has inherited all your good qualities, but she has Leoâs temper.
What can you expect from my princess when Leo still behaves like an immature child.â
The accurate interpretation of Leoâs temperament reminded me of the next battle, Leo would be pissed to lose this opportunity.
But following Bright words was a nice move, it gave me enough time to control my emotions and talk to cranky Jane again. She was going to be on boycott with her good daddy: Bright.
I was negotiating the terms and conditions to end this ban when the doorbell rang, I heard Leoâs fresh voice after a loud thud of the door opening.
âHey, Bright. I am here to see my daughter.â
He was so loud that the whole town could hear him, disclosing his reckless plan. Leoâs method of exploding the bomb of this news made me punch the pillow in fury. I excused myself and asked Jane to stay in her room, it was the time to face Leo and his new trickery.
Compter 113 Bright saved me from the trouble of informing him, Leo shouted at the top of his lungs.
âHow can you do this to me, Laura?â
His hands were occupied by the gifts he brough for Jane, so he kicked the sofa in frustration.
âThis was the precious moment of my life, I have thought so much about today.
How can you snatch the father daughter reunion from me? You guys are monsters!â
Leo stomped his foot on the floor, yelling hysterically. I had to give him thousands of clarifications to clear my position.
âLook. Leo!
Jane is a child. Why canât you understand her emotions?
It is a great shock for her, she canât just switch daddies like socks.â
Eventually, the flames of Leoâs anger subsided as he calmed down, he threw a dirty glare at Bright to warn him.
âI am going to see my daughter. So, you shouldnât be anywhere around her.
I wonât tolerate your interference anymore.â
I looked at Bright with pleading eyes and took Leo to Janeâs room. Thankfully, my little girl behaved politely. Leo showed her the presents that he bought for her.
âSee, my little angel!
Daddy has picked numerous gifts for you.â
