"I went and brainwashed your grandparents, asking them to be nicer to your mom in the future."
"Is that so? Will they take what you said seriously?"
"How do I know if I don't try it?"
"Then if Grandparents want to beat my mom, you will protect her, right?"
"Yes, I will."
With this assurance from him, she is relieved as she says, "Okay then."
After dinner, Troy has to go take care of some business related to starting a new company. And as soon as he leaves, Karin calls her daughter into the room.
"Mom, what's wrong?"
Esme blinks her big bright eyes and looks at her mother innocently.
Karin squats down and takes her daughter into her arms. For a long time, she doesn’t say anything. Then she makes up her mind that it is time that she should tell Esme everything.
"Esme, do you want to know who your father is?"
Esme suddenly opens her eyes wide and says, "If I say yes, Mom, will you be sad?"
Karin, who is heartbroken, shakes her head, “I won’t."
Karin thinks that she probably will be somewhat sad. However, at the very least, she won't be as sad as she used to be.
Esme nods timidly, "Then... Yes."
"Good, then I'll tell you."
She takes a deep breath and says, "Your father is the one that you call Uncle-Bad-Guy."
Originally, she thought that Esme would jump up with excitement. However, to her surprise, Esme doesn’t. Instead, she, who is dumbfounded for a moment, doesn’t even question whether her mother is deliberately saying so to make her happy.
"Don't you believe it?" Karin is choked as she says, "Mom didn't lie to you. He is your biological father."
"I believe it. Mommy, I believe everything you say."
"Then are you… happy?"
Esme cautiously, knowing in her heart that the child, who
