Tessa smiled in tears. “Dad, other children have their mothers by their side when they wake up, but I always had you by my bedside when I wake up. It was my dad who read me bedtime stories every night. My first braid was very ugly, but I loved it very much. That’s because you have spent more than an hour braiding it for me. Till this day, I still remember the time when I first started menstruating. You were afraid that I would be embarassed, so you purposely asked the lady next door to keep me accompanied for a few days. She was not very willing to do as she needed to go to work, so you gave her a month’s worth of her salary as repayment. You were the one who researched online on the many things to pay attention to when one first got their menstruation, and then you told them to the lady next now. After that, you asked the lady not to tell me that you did that. Although I only have a dad, my first menstruation was very smooth.She sobbed. “All my classmates envied that I have a good d

“Oh, I see. Missus Smith’s daughter came to look for Director Zayn. She…she addressed him as Uncle Zayn. Okay. Okay.”After the receptionist hung up the call, she looked at Tessa respectfully., “M-Miss, please wait here for a moment. Director Zayn’s assistant, Gary, will be right out.”“Alright!” Tessa did not even look at the receptionist. She sneered. It seemed that she was treated as a very important person here for being the stepdaughter.Within a few minutes, a beauty with mature temperature walked out in heels. When she saw Tessa, she immediately greeted her with a smile. “You’re the lady, right?”“I am looking for Uncle Zayn!” Tessa immediately said.“Miss, Director Zayn is not in today. He had just left half an hour ago. It seems that his wife…your mother is unwell. She had been sent to the hospital by the maid at home early in the morning today. Director Zayn heard that his wife was sick, so he left in a hurry.”Tessa was speechless. ‘Sick? Serves her right!’“Miss, if

“You slapping my face was more difficult to bear than your father threatening me with the photos of me in bed with another man. I was utterly disappointed after you slapped me twice. Tessa, I’m beyond disappointed with you. I have raised you for twenty-two years. According to civil law, the parents have an obligation to support their children until they are eighteen years old. You are now twenty-two years old. I have fulfilled my obligations. As for the financial support that you were supposed to be giving me in the future, I’ll make it clear to you now that I don’t need it! We have already broken off all ties and bonds between us. I now declare that I don’t need you to support me! Originally, your Uncle Zayn, my husband, had persuaded me that no matter what, you are still my biological daughter. However, Tessa, after you’ve gone to the village and learned all about your father’s behavior, you still came to blackmail me and your Uncle Zayn. Do you know that you’re committing a crime?”

“My Hana is more clean than anybody!” said Zayn coldly. “Hector, regarding your past with Hana, I had gone to the village you’ve once lived in to inquire about it a long time ago before I married Hana! When I made the inquiry back then, it was not even because I wanted to marry Hana! I initially did it because I wanted to be the mediator for Hana and Tessa! When I heard about your past, I was extremely disappointed. I felt that how could there be such a cruel husband in this world? A girl who had been together with you since she was still a minor! She was the biological mother to your daughter! You actually could do such a thing to her! Do you know you’re worse than a murderer? Hector Caven, I’m warning you! Hana and I are not afraid of you disseminating those photos! Because a person who has done nothing wrong is not afraid of the shadows! However, you listen to me carefully! If you were to disseminate those photos, then you are going to prison for breaking the law! Also, the quicker

Zayn was so happy that he cried uncontrollably. Of course, Hana also cried tears of joy. She had been yearning to be close to her daughter, but her daughter had always hated her. Hana had been thinking if God let her be born again, even if she had to die, she would stay by her daughter’s side and die together with her. Although she did not get to be born again, it was as if she got to relive her life again.The doctor told Zayn and Hana that Hana was pregnant at an advanced maternal age, so they had to be cautious with everything. It was fine for them to be happy, but they could not be overly excited. Zayn and Hana understood that, so they tried their best to calm their emotions. This child arrived so suddenly and surprisingly. The couple extraordinarily cherished the child, so much so that at that moment when Zayn heard that Tessa was killed after being hit by a car, he immediately chose to not tell Hana. Although Hana had severed her ties with Tessa, she was still her biological dau
