You, Me And Our Genus Twins

Chapter 64 Unhappy

Madeline thought about it for a moment. “If you’re asking for my opinion, of course I’d prefer to be able to reveal the truth about the past so that Cameron gets prosecuted.”

Michael looked into his daughter’s eyes. “Trust me, Madeline. I hate Cameron as much as you do! Revealing whatever Cameron did would also expose the truth about Angie’s birth parents, though, and that would come as a huge blow to Angie…”

After pausing for a moment, Michael gathered his words before speaking at a slower pace and explaining, “I have a scale in my heart that tells me you take up a larger spot than Angie, Madeline … I was thinking that I could find other ways to make Cameron pay for what she did in the past. As for Angie… I’ll announce her as an adopted daughter we brought home. Once you meet your ancestors, I’ll get Angie to move out of the house. As an adopted daughter, she’ll no longer have the right to inherit anything from the family. Since she was once my child, I just want to give her a clean background so that she doesn’t get cursed whenever she’s out in public.”

“We’ll just go with whatever you say,” Madeline uttered with a smile.

Michael’s eyes lit up. “Does that mean you agree with me, Madeline?”

“If you’re asking for my opinion, of course I would want everyone to know about Cameron’s deeds so that she can pay for whatever she did in the past,” Madeline replied. “But if you don’t agree to it, I won’t force you to do anything. We’re father and daughter, not enemies—it’s only right for us to consider each other’s viewpoints.”

However, fate wasn’t everything. When it came to relationships, what mattered was each other’s sincerity. Madeline was a realist. Her actions toward others depended on how they acted toward her. She would repay them with whatever kindness they showed, and she might be a little kinder than they were, but that was about it. Madeline gave Michael a friendly smile. She was polite but distant—it certainly didn’t seem like the sort of attitude a daughter would show to her father.
