Let me go, Mr. Hill [By Shallow South] Chapter 2139
In the official residence.
Just as Rodney carried Dani over from the sitter’s hands, the baby started crying not long after.
He became annoyed. When he came in the morning, Dani cried as soon as he carried her. He kept telling her that
he was her father, but she did not understand him at all.
To Dani, Rodney’s scent had become unfamiliar. She did not like strangers carrying her. Rodney then kept playing
with her after she woke up from her nap in the evening. They managed to get a little closer, but Dani still did not
want him to carry her.
“Dani, I’m Dad. Don’t you recognize me?” Rodney was heartbroken. “When you were just born, you liked me
carrying you so much. I was the one who put you to sleep every night.”
Dani did not care. She kept pouting and crying. Her teary eyes glanced toward the sitter at the side.
The sitter sighed as she watched.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHeidi’s heart ached from listening to the child’s cries. She could not help but mock coldly, “Children are forgetful,
especially those who are just a few months old. They’ll forget people if they don’t appear for one week, let alone
you who haven’t cared for your child for more than a month.”
Nathan kept a cold expression and did not say a word. He thought Rodney deserved it anyway. Rodney brought
everything upon himself.
Rodney’s face was flushed red from being mocked. “I didn’t do it on purpose. There are a lot of things going on in
the company these days, and Sarah-“
“Yes, you’re busy with your company’s matters, busy taking care of Sarah, and busy preparing a wedding for her.
You don’t even have time to spare to accompany your daughter,” Nathan scolded Rodney. “Dani might be young,
but she can differentiate who’s more attentive to her. She’s your biological child, yet she can’t even compare to
anything else in your heart.”
Rodney opened his mouth reluctantly. However, seeing his daughter, who was crying pitifully in his arms, a deep
wave of guilt welled up in him.
“Oh, why is our Dani crying so badly?”
Ryan’s sarcastic voice came from the door.
Rodney raised his head and looked over in dissatisfaction. He saw Ryan and Freya walking side by side. Freya was
wearing a mask, and she had a scarf around her neck. She held a hot drink in her hands. The two were of similar
age. Ryan was competent with a good character while Freya had a stunning figure and beautiful looks. They did not
look like siblings at all. Instead, they seemed to be a man and woman who shared an ambiguous relationship.
Yes, things looked ambiguous between them.
It seemed to be that way to Rodney.
Flames of jealousy burned in his chest.
Freya did not even care to look at Rodney. Her attention was fully on Dani, who was crying. She was anxious, but
she did not dare to carry Dani as she had a cold.
“Dani, my good baby. Why are you crying?” Ryan quickly extended his hands to carry her.
Rodney carried his daughter and avoided him.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHowever, when Dani saw Ryan, she kept stretching her tiny hands toward him, wanting Ryan to carry her. When
Ryan could not do so, she cried even more sadly.
Traces of depression and anger welled up in Rodney’s heart.
Why? Dani was his biological child, yet she would rather Ryan carry her instead of him.
“Rodney, can you cut it out? Can’t you see that Dani is crying? Children can’t cry for too long. It’ll hurt their throat.”
Ryan’s handsome face darkened. He extended his hands. “Give her to me. I don’t want to snatch her because I
don’t want to hurt her.”
“She’s my daughter. I can coax her by myself.” Rodney let out a hmph.
Freya got furious seeing his arrogant face. However, before she could unleash her anger, Nathan got angry first. “If
you could coax Dani, she wouldn’t be crying until now. If you really cared about her, you wouldn’t have gotten
involved with other women outside instead of staying at home to accompany your wife and child. The child is
crying. You might not be distressed over it, but we are.”
Rodney’s face paled.
Ryan took that opportunity and carried Dani away.
