Farewell My Stepfather novel Chapter 90

Chapter 90

Paulette smiled slightly, “Nelson, I won’t regret it.”

The days when I didn’t like him were really easy.

“Um.”

The man’s eyes looked like they wanted to hit her, he was so angry that he laughed, “Saying you won’t regret it, but then secretly playing tricks behind my back? Paulette, you have indeed grown up, knowing how to provoke me.”

“Do you know how complicated the workplace is? Do you know how much hardship one has to endure alone in Crireton?”

Paulette’s gaze remained unchanged, “I know, but I can.”

“Heh… What? Can you ask me for money by acting cute?”

Paulette pursed her lips and didn’t say a word.

She did do that.

But… that was in the past. Back then, when she still dreamed of spending her life with him, she would nag him for money and then buy him gifts.

Seeing Paulette’s reaction, Nelson was even more certain of his thoughts.

She couldn’t stand it.

Paulette, not exactly spoiled, but she never had a hard time in society.

In no more than a month, she definitely turned back to ask him again.

Nelson closed his eyes tightly, not wanting to play this back–and–forth game with her anymore, and said sternly, “Tricia, even if I say a few words to you seriously, it’s for your own good. You shouldn’t have those thoughts. Come back with me tomorrow and apologize to Tricia, or else…”

“Otherwise, how?”

The girl looked defiant, Nelson blurted out, “Just pretend I never raised you!”

J’Just pretend I never raised you.”

Paulette had big eyes, staring at him blankly.

In front of her was still the familiar face, not much different from thirteen years ago. But at that moment she realized, maybe she had never really known him, the one she used to like was just the dad in her imagination.

“I… I’m not going back, let alone apologize to Patricia.”

Paulette’s voice was hoarse, “Sorry, Nelson.”

She got up, gave Nelson a 90–degree bow, then turned firmly and walked out of the room with big strides.

Nelson watched her walk out of sight, it felt like holding sand slipping away, slipping away… until there was nothing left, not even a trace.

He suddenly felt a sharp pain in his chest, making it hard to breathe.

“Paulette!”

The hoarse shout in the room died down, with no response at all.
