“Women are like clothes. Well said.”
Sharon cackled sardonically as tears began to trickle down her face. “Taylor Blackwood, you really are a heartless
b*stard. She stayed by your side for decades and even birthed you a child. That’s how you treat her?”
“Every man for himself,” Taylor remarked dryly.
“So, tell me. There’s police surrounding you right now, am I right?” Sharon abruptly questioned. “You’re stalling for
time on purpose so that they can use their tracking device to figure out where I am.”
Taylor fell silent and lifted his head to look at the throng of policemen encircling him.
He never knew that his own daughter was so intelligent.
“Guess I was right again.” Sharon let out a sarcastic laugh. Tears were streaming down her face relentlessly. “What
benefits did they give you in order for you to betray your own daughter?”
Taylor lowered his head. “You can’t escape. Just turn yourself in. Zachary and Charlotte are already in T Nation.”
“W-Why would you treat me this way?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSharon demanded in an agitated manner. Alas, there was nothing but silence on the other side of the phone.
“Taylor Blackwood. I detest you! I will never forgive you.”
After she screamed at him at the top of her lungs, she promptly hung up.
Her hand trembled as she gripped her phone. She hung her head and cried her heart out.
No matter how poorly her father used to treat her, she always treasured their kinship. Even at the most critical
point in her life, she made it a point to leave him some money for his retirement.
Even while she was on the run, she still thought about her father and even pleaded with that mystery man to save
him. That was why the mysterious stranger dealt with her father’s arrangements for him.
She rushed over to T Nation in a frenzy and barely managed to settle down before she gave him a call to inform
him about the money she set aside for him. Unfortunately, he sold her out to safeguard his own interests.
Is that what a father-daughter relationship is supposed to be like? Is that what kinship is supposed to be like? Aren’t
fathers supposed to love their daughters the most in the whole wide world? Why is my own father like this? That
man is a wolf in sheep’s clothing. All that chivalry was a facade. Only now do I see that he’s actually a self-obsessed
scoundrel. It’s a pity my mom never knew that. She spent her whole life deeply in love with a brute like him. If I’d
known how things would turn out, I should’ve just remained in that quaint city and lived a modest life. Why did I
have to give up everything to return to the Blackwoods and acknowledge that scumbag as my father? At the end of
the day, I’ve been played like a pawn, manipulated and discarded according to his whim and fancy.
Knock knock knock.
The bodyguards rapped the door multiple times. In Ustranasion, they anxiously said, “We might’ve been followed.
We must leave right away.”
Sharon remained quiet. The look in her eyes turned hollow.
She didn’t know what the meaning of her life was anymore.
All of a sudden, she felt like destroying the whole world.
Everyone should perish together. That might be more satisfying.
“Did you hear us? We have to evacuate this instant.”
The bodyguard was badgering her into leaving, but Sharon stayed motionless.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIn the other room, Olivia was holding onto the medicine that the bodyguard purchased. She dared not feed it to
Ellie but she gave her a fever patch instead.
The commotion outside alarmed Olivia. She was worried that Sharon would jump the gun and kill the both of them
off. When she noticed that the bodyguards were all looking for Sharon, she saw a window of opportunity to make a
run for it.
With Ellie in her arms, she surreptitiously climbed out of the window and sprinted for her life.
Despite having drained all her energy earlier in the day, Olivia still persevered and ran as fast as she could with her
clothes drenched in sweat and her feet bare.
Her topmost priority was to ensure Ellie was safe and sound.
“They fled!”
A furious bellow came from behind them. Shortly after, people began chasing after them.
A frightened Olivia continued to dash forward with Ellie in her arms. Sadly, her legs soon gave way and the
bodyguards managed to catch up to her.
