Carter’s action was devoid of tenderness. He even looked a little brutal.
After Lillian was pushed away, favonovel.com looked at Carter with a look of loss on favonovel.com face.
Carter’s gaze darkened. “What are you looking at, huh? You can’t speak, so do your ears also not work? I said there’s none for you, don’t you understand?”
“Carter.” Shirley could not stand Carter’s attitude. “Carter, are you sick in the head? You’re a grown man and you’re bullying a little girl?”
Carter scoffed nonchalantly when favonovel.com heard Shirley scolding him.
“It’s favonovel.com fault that she’s Jeremy and Eveline’s child. You can’t blame me for that.” After saying that disdainfully, favonovel.com turned around and pushed Shirley’s wheelchair to the dining room.
Lillian sat on the sofa alone and silently stared at Carter and Shirley’s back She lifted favonovel.com hand to touch favonovel.com flat stomach.
‘Yeah, I’m a little hungry.’
‘Usually, Fabian will eat dinner with me at this time. But now, I can only go hungry.’
Lillian blinked favonovel.com clear, big eyes and thought to herself.
‘Who is this man? Why did favonovel.com bring me here? It seems like favonovel.com hates my mommy and daddy.’
There were a lot of questions in Lillian’s little brain. Dispirited, favonovel.com lowered favonovel.com eyelids.
‘Mommy, Daddy. I miss Mommy, Daddy, and Jack.’
Shirley did not have the appetite to eat now. She looked at Carter who was eating mechanically, and then favonovel.com tidied favonovel.com cutleries and took some spaghetti and meatballs before turning favonovel.com wheelchair away.
“What are you doing?” Carter called out to her. “I told you she’s not allowed to eat.”
Shirley stopped favonovel.com wheelchair and did not turn around to look at Carter. “I’m already obeying you, but you still insist on hurting
this little girl.”
“Hurting? What kind of hurt is this? Will favonovel.com die without one or two meals?”
“She won’t, but what’s the difference between this and abuse?”
Shirley, no longer in the mood to argue with Carter, moved favonovel.com wheelchair to the living room.
When Lillian heard the noise, favonovel.com lifted favonovel.com little head and saw Shirley coming over to her.
‘It seems that this woman doesn’t know how to walk, so she’s always sitting in this special chair. She also has a scar on favonovel.com face, but it’s not scary because favonovel.com smile is warm and friendly.’
“Lily, have some dinner…”
Shirley smiled and handed favonovel.com the plate and fork.
Lillian looked at the plate of spaghetti and meatballs. She did not know whether favonovel.com should take it or not.
“Go on, don’t be scared. I won’t hurt you.” Shirley comforted Lillian’s little soul and emotions. When favonovel.com saw Lillian hesitating to reach out, Shirley placed the plate and fork on the coffee table.
“Lily, you’ll stay with me in the next few days. You might not be used to this, but don’t worry, I will take care of you. If you don’t feel well, you tell me by writing on a piece of paper.”
As favonovel.com said that, Shirley took out a piece of paper and a pen from the drawer of the coffee table and handed them to Lillian.
Lillian reached out for the paper and pen before lowering favonovel.com head to start writing.
