Chapter 1852


    Chapter 1852


    Bertha was at her wits’ end. She had tried every trick in the book to wake up her blissfully ignorant


    husband. “Fine! I wash my hands of you! Go ahead and save your precious princess! Give me back my


    daughter!”


    With that, she swooped her daughter out of Thaddeus’ arms and stormed out of the elevator as soon


    as the doors slid open.


    Thaddeus hastened to catch up with her. “Bertha! What do you want me to do? I can’t just abandon my


    own daughter!”


    Bertha took a deep breath as disappointment clouded her face. “Go ahead and take care of your


    golden girl. Lea and I won’t be part of this mess. From now on, you take the high road, and I’ll take the


    low road. Let Sophia reap what she sows. You can deal with her misdeeds alone!”


    Thaddeus was helpless. “Bertha, Sophia isn’t as bad as you make her out to be.”


    Unable to bear it any longer, Bertha stopped dead in her tracks. Her eyes were alight with anger as she


    stared at Thaddeus. “Hasn’t she done enough? She nearly scarred Ellinor for life with sulfuric acid.


    Sulfuric acid! Your daughter resorts to such extreme measures when she doesn’t get her way; isn’t that


    bad in your eyes?


    Maybe in your eyes, only your daughter’s safety matters. The safety of others doesn’t mean a thing to


    you, right? Thaddeus, why should your daughter get away with harming others?


    Ellinor saved my life. I owe her everything. Even if you don’t care, I do. I can’t live with you anymore.


    Go save Sophia. Once she’s safe, let’s finalize our divorce,”


    Thaddeus was at a loss for words. He knew Sophia was in the wrong, but as a father, he couldn’t bring


    himself to abandon her.Books Chapters Are Daily Updated Join & Stay Updated For All Books

    “Bertha, are you forcing me to choose between you and Sophia?!”


    “I’m not forcing you to choose. Lea and I will step out of your life so you can continue pandering to your


    daughter.”


    A shadow of worry creased Thaddeus’ brow. He had to concede. “I’ll just go to the police station to see


    Sophia. I promise not to interfere with the police’s handling of her case. Bertha, just let me see her.


    She’s never been through anything like this. I’m afraid she might be terrified.”


    Before Bertha could respond, Leaughed coldly. “Dad! You’re so blinded by love for Sophia that you


    can’t even think clearly. She had the guts to throw acid at someone. She’s not easily scared. She’s


    braver than all of us!”


    “Lea, she’s still your sister.”


    Lea rolled her eyes. “I’d rather be an only child than have such a cold-blooded sister!”


    Thaddeus fell silent.


    Realizing that her husband might not help Sophia, Bertha decided topromise. “If you won’t cover


    for her, Lea and I will apany you to the police station.”


    Thaddeus nodded as a mix of emotions washed over his face. “OK, I won’t do anything. I just want to


    see her.”


    Lea added, “Dad, keep your word, or I’ll lose all respect for you.”


    Thaddeus sighed. He felt truly helpless. He had been around the block a few times, and yet here he


    was, failing as a father and being disrespected by his younger daughter.
