My Little Sweet Wife 2

Chapter 286 - The Long-Awaited Explanation IV

Jennie's smooth and beautiful face turned pale under the dim sky. Her clear eyes stared at him blankly.

"When Bella first called me 'daddy', I was as shocked as you were. I don't have the habit of acknowledging someone as my daughter, and I don't have the kind of love you claim me to have on Niki. Everyone has their own principles, maybe I have more principles than anyone else, and I don't want her use this reason to bring our relationship to a stalemate."

"At that time, after Senior Zhou's welcoming banquet, Bella, who was alone in the hotel, suddenly had an illness. Since she was Senior Zhou's great-granddaughter, the hotel manager contacted me. Senior Zhou and the others rushed over and sent her to the hospital. Ever since Niki divorced, she was unable to contact Bella's father, and Bella had been longing to find her father ever since she fell ill."

As Lisa said that, his thin lips slightly pursed and a look of regret appearing in his eyes. "I know that anyone would mind this kind of thing. Besides, I had a past relationship with Niki and I hid it from you twice when I sent Bella to the hospital. When Bella calls me daddy again, although I am very resistant to it, Jennie, the principle is too much. Facing a five-year-old child who is suffering every day from illness and can still smile so happily, but in reality, she is already at the end of her life. Towards this term of address, I don't admit it, nor do I deny it. But no matter what kind of reason it is, it is unavoidable from hurting you. This is my negligence and mistake. You can blame me for it, but don't deny yourself like that again."

He lifted his hand and stroked her hair, which was slightly messy from the struggle just now, behind her ears. Even on this stormy night, he was still the elegant Lisa Manoban. However, his eyes were filled with deep regret.

Jennie could still think of that glimpse, of that amiable and humble man who can make any woman fall in love with him. She thought, no matter how hard it was for her to forget Niki's existence, if Bella stood at her feet and called her 'mother' with tears in her eyes, she wouldn't refuse it too.

So that's how it is.

Did she need to continue to bear it and endure the pain? Moreover, Bella was suffering from an illness and had a dream to get to know her father.

So, that's why that day in front of Bella, Lisa could not deny it in front of her. He had to explain to her afterward, but she had already run away.

However ...

What could she do?

Everything that had once been in H City that day was thrown aside like a time tunnel, and the gentleness slowly retreated in the midst of time.

Maybe they were all wrong.

No matter what, they still did not completely trust each other, just like how she did not want to talk about the past in front of him, just like how he did not want her to misunderstand and hide the matter regarding Bella.

Lisa was a perfect man who could control everything, and he knew what was the best way. Actually, he could have told her earlier. Why did he have to go this far like this?

Jennie pursed her lips and looked at him calmly: "Thank you for untying the knot in my heart. The answer to the question that I've been waiting for has finally been answered. Can I go now?"

It was as if Lisa had long anticipated that Jennie wouldn't forgive him for this explanation, but in the end, he didn't retreat from her gradually calming indifference.

At this moment, Jennie suddenly felt that she was really mean. She coldly looked at him. Lisa patiently and firmly looked at her.

Jennie knew there must have been something that had held him back that day. Maybe Bella or maybe something else.
