President's Substitute Wife

“Don’t play dumb. He changed his will. You are too insidious.” Cindy stood behind the policemen and sneered, “and now you’re Mrs. Jessop. Sean protects you. Are you afraid I will hurt you?”

I looked at her and said seriously, “Yeah, you can’t hurt me, so I don’t have to pretend.” I said with certainty, “I really don’t know about it.”

Cindy was stunned.

She looked at me in disbelief.

It seemed that she thought what I said was true but she didn’t want to believe it.

I went on, “and I’m not interested in your father’s legacy. After all, he abandoned us when I was still in my mother’s stomach. He wasn’t involved in my life at all.

I grew up in an orphanage. He didn’t know I existed. He didn’t buy me clothes or dolls. He didn’t take me to the park or send me to school.

In my heart, he was never my father.”

Cindy looked at me. The afternoon sun shone on her face. She looked serious and confused.

She looked at me and didn’t speak.

Yes.

What I just said was really for her.

I didn’t feel father’s love when I was young, but the fathers in the TV plays and books I watched were like this.

Cindy’s expression confirmed my guess.

Cindy sneered. “You want to teach me? You think I’m selfish? He’s so nice to me, but I don’t want to donate marrow for him, right?”

“Yes.”

I didn’t deny it.

It was a fact.

Cindy looked at me and said coldly, “so what? Do you think you and your mother have a terrible life, but my mother and I have a good life?”

No?
