Frederick Addington was angry and hurt. He let go of her and said, “Ste, you can’t have both. It’s impossible for you to have Jasper and the child. If you want Jasper, I won’t give the child to you. I will tell Titus that you chose love and abandoned him.”
“Titus is still young,you’ll traumatize him,” Ste cried anxiously. She was so disgusted with Frederick at that moment.
“Isn’t this your choice? Love or family, you can only choose one,” Frederick said firmly, staring at Ste.
Ste Grace fixed her eyes on Frederick, her mind in turmoil.
Why couldn’t romantic love and family love go hand in hand? The child clearly belonged to her and Jasper. She could go to Jasper. Now that she knew how he looked like, it was only a matter of time before they tracked Titus down with facial recognition software.
Ste slowly regained her rity.
She had to leave now. She couldn’t provoke Frederick, so she had to retreat carefully. “I have to think about it.”
Frederick smiled. “Ste, I know you too well. I know you have made up your mind. You might say you need more time to think about it, but I know clearly that you chose Jasper. You think that Jasper is powerful, so he must be able to find the child.”
Ste frowned.
Frederick had read her mind.
She was a little annoyed. She was a psychologist, but she did not hide her thoughts very well. “Didn’t you let me choose between these two?”
“Since you have chosen Jasper, I can only respect your choice. However, I will make the child go through stic surgery and bone marrow recement. You should know, as long as the bone marrow is changed, the DNA will change ordingly. You will never find him. He will hate you for your choice for the rest of his life,” Frederick said coldly and turned around.
Ste anxiously grabbed his arm.“You can’t do this. He’s just a child, that’s too cruel.”
Frederick looked at her coldly. “If you think I am cruel to the child, then you are cruel to me too.”
“Me? Cruel? Have you forgotten what you did three years ago? You left me to die in order to win over Felicia’s favor. Have you forgotten all that?” Ste snarled.
Frederick was also angry. “When have I left you to die? I told you, the man who kidnapped you wouldn’t have hurt you at all. It was a trap I had set up. I wanted Felicia to trust mepletely because I wanted revenge. But I didn’t want you to die.”
“Then what about the hurt you inflicted on me? Three years, I gave you three years. I watched you go through woman after woman. Do you know how I felt at that time? Every day was a living hell, it was worse than death.”
Frederick raised his voice. “That’s because I took out my hatred for Wilson on you. I didn’t know how I felt about you then. During the three years when you were abroad, I did my best to be a better person, all because I fell in love with you. When you asked me castrate myself, I would have done it without hesitation. I don’t care about my sexual needs at all. You’re the only person I need.”
Ste pushed him angrily.
The choice between love and family broke her mentally. She picked up the hand sanitizer on the sink and threw it on the ground. Still unsatisfied, she grabbed the napkin box and vase and smashed them too.Content ? N?velDrama.Org.
She then moved on to the bathroom. The shower gel, shampoo, and shaving cream were all thrown to the floor. She then punched the wall.
Panic shed through Frederick’s eyes.
He could see her mother, Celine Grace, in her.
He rushed forward and hugged Ste.
Ste struggled with all her strength but to no avail. She turned her head and bit Frederick’s arm.
Frederick grunted.Ste tasted blood, but she still bit hard.
The door was pushed open. Titus stood there watching them. He said in a squeaky voice, “Father Addington, Mommy, are you fighting because of me? Father Addington is the kindest person I have ever known. I like Mommy too. If you’re fighting because of me, then I’ll leave after dinner. Please don’t fight because of me.”
Ste paused and looked at the door.
The little fellow looked at them pitifully.
Tears trickled down Ste’s face toher chin, and then to Frederick’s hand.
She saw the blood on Frederick’s arm soaking through thewhite shirt. Then she looked up and saw the mess in the room. She was stunned by the scene before her.
She had another rpse.
When she was overwhelmed, she couldn’t think at all. Her mind was nk. When she finally returned to her senses, she didn’t know what she had done.
Seeing that Ste had calmed down, Frederick let go of her and walked to Titus. He rubbed Titus’ head and said with a smile, “Daddy and Mommy weren’t quarreling because of you. We are all very happy to find you. Titus, be a good boy. I will have a good talk with Mommy first, then we can eat.”
“Can Mommy and Daddy please stop fighting?” asked Titus.
“Daddy and Mommy are not fighting. Look, Daddy is holding Mommy. Daddy promises that he would never fight with Mommy. I will spoil Mommy with love, just like how I spoil you, okay?” Frederick coaxed patiently.
Titus looked at Ste, ran over, and hugged her.
His small body only reached Ste’s waist.
Ste lowered her head and looked at Titus.
How could she bear to leave him to wander the streets? A young boy, who was not even six years old. Her heart ached when she thought about it.
Her tears continued to fall.
Titus looked at Ste with panic in his eyes, afraid of being abandoned.“Mommy, don’t cry. I’ll protect you when I grow up.”
A child’s eyes hid nothing. Ste squatted downand said, “Titus, go eat first. I want to talk to your father.”
“Okay, I’m a good boy. I will go and eat. I won’t cause any more trouble for Mommy and Daddy.” Titus left, closing the door for them.
Ste felt more and more sorry for the sensible child. She looked into Frederick’s pitiful eyes.
