Chapter 419: Our Family of Three~

Her words couldn’t get any more hurtful.

Joel paused and looked at her in astonishment.

Hillary looked like she had lost her mind. The savage look on her face made her look just like a beast in captivity putting up one last fight. She said, “How about this? Give me Mia, the two of you can have your own children instead. Isn’t that a good idea? This way, I won’t pester you ever again in the future!”

Joel looked at Tanya hastily.

By asking her to be Mia’s stepmother, he was actually letting Tanya down.

Tanya had also been resistant to the idea.

Just two days ago, she had even driven him away because of it.

Joel thought that this was something that Tanya couldn’t get over.

Tanya’s gaze, however, landed on Mia when she heard what Hillary said.

 

The words ‘have your own children’ was a blow that made her heart ache.

Nevertheless, she had noticed Mia reaching out with her little hand and grasping Joel’s sleeve tightly upon hearing what Hillary said. In addition, her timid eyes also looked at her as though she was asking her for help—or begging her for mercy.

Mia didn’t want to go with Hillary.

She was very resistant to the idea.

Seeing that neither she nor Joel was speaking, Hillary stretched out her hand to Mia and said, “Come here, Mia. Come with Mommy. They are all bad people. Do you know? They are all bad people! Once your teacher and your father have their own children in the future, they will abuse and bully you. Come with Mommy. Mommy will never bully you, right?”

Mia shrank back further into Joel’s arms.

Joel’s gaze, however, was on Tanya the whole time.

He would never give Mia to Hillary, no matter what.

But he wanted Tanya to say something right now…

However, Tanya merely stared at Mia. The emotions in her eyes were so complicated that even Joel couldn’t read them at all.

Joel’s heart slowly sank.
