Chapter 423
He gently stroked the kid’s head, scooped up his little sister and headed out, “Bri, don’t be scared, I’m
taking you out for some fun.”
From then on, he never let Bri see those quarreling adults again. He used his own strength to shield
her, creating a safe and loving home, and protecting her from the damage of their original family.
But all good dreams must come to an end, and the beautiful dream he crafted for her shattered, the
impact was just as great.
He could still remember, it was her fifth birthday. She sat by the door all day, hoping for her parents to
come home and celebrate with her. Finally, they came back.
The kid ran to greet them with joy, but they didn’t pay any attention to her, they were still fighting. The
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtman, losing the argument, turned his anger on the little girl who had been waiting all day, “Why are you
making such a fuss? You shouldn’t even exist in this world!”
He rushed up, trying to cover her ears, but he was still a step too late. Bri tearfully asked her parents,
“Am I not your child?”
“So what if you are?” The man said harshly, “I told her to abort you. If she had, none of this would have
happened. But she insisted on giving birth to you, and now we have to come back to celebrate your
birthday.”
The woman was just as cruel, “You think I wanted you? If the doctor hadn’t told me that I might never
be able to get pregnant again if I aborted you, would I have given birth to you?”
They only cared about venting their own frustrations. They knew how much their words could hurt a
five–year–old kid, but they didn’t care. Just like when they hurt him, who was also just five or six at the
time..
When he was very young, they would openly be affectionate with others in front of him. They didn’t
know how much he wanted to vomit when he saw those scenes.
Years of anger exploded at that moment, he pointed at the squabbling couple, “Shut up and get out of
this house!”
He was only eleven then, still a child himself. But he was already forced to grow up, to become a big
brother who could protect his little
sister.
Even though he was no match for the man at that time, he had to protect his sister, “Don’t ever step
into this house or let me see you again, or you’ll regret it!”
“Do you know who you’re talking to?” The man tried to hit him, but backed off when he saw the cold

“I told you to leave, didn’t you hear me?” Perhaps it was the sudden display of his strong intimidating
force that scared them off, the disgusting couple really left.
The little girl clung to his clothes, crying uncontrollably, “Is it because I’m naughty that mom and dad
don’t like me?”
“Bri, listen to me.” He sat down, holding her in his arms, “You’re the best kid in the world, you did
nothing wrong but they did. You’re so adorable, it’s their loss if they don’t like you.”
“Really? Am I really a good kid?” The little girl blinked her tearful eyes, all her thoughts reflected on her
innocent face, making him feel
even more heartbroken.
He pinched the little girl’s face, “When have I ever lied to you?”
She really tilted her head and thought, then shook her head cutely, “I believe you, if you say I’m a good
kid, then I’m a good kid.”
He smiled, “Yeah, that’s the right way to think. Never doubt yourself because of what others say, got
it?”
