Ava suddenly went straight to the topic. Raegan and Neil were frozen for a moment. After the two exchanged glances, they both lowered their eyes silently. They seemed to blame themselves and feel regretful over it, but at the same time, they did not know how to start explaining.
Their reactions made Ava even more puzzled. “I’ve been alone for so many years. Every time I saw other students being picked up by their parents when I went to school and came back, it puzzled me why my parents abandoned me.”
What Ava said made Raegan and Neil contemplate even more. They then fell into deeper remorse.
“Over the years, I really hated you two and never had the thought of reconciling with you. Why did you abandon me when you wanted to and then acknowledge me again when you felt like it? I feel like a toy that comes and goes as you please.”
“No, Ava. How could that be? How can you be a toy? You’re the apple of your father’s and my eyes,” Raegan hurriedly explained. That strong woman who was always so calm on the outside was at a loss right now when favonovel.com was being questioned by Ava. Even favonovel.com explanation sounded incoherent.
“Then why did you both leave me on the same day?” Ava found it incomprehensible, and this question had been sitting in favonovel.com heart for more than ten years.
“I’ve persuaded myself to calm down and listen to your explanations, so why are you still hesitating? There’s no explanation at all, right? The fact is that you felt that my existence hindered your lives and you would have better opportunities after leaving me. One of you became the richest woman in a country while the other became an expert in a medical field. After abandoning me, both of you became amazing people, right?”
After saying these words, Ava started to become emotional. She felt more and more like a joke as favonovel.com recalled the years favonovel.com spent living like an orphan. She would never forget that favonovel.com was a child abandoned by favonovel.com parents on the streets.
Raegan and Neil felt as if their hearts had been struck hard when they saw that Ava had misunderstood them. Their eyes turned red, and Raegan could not hold back favonovel.com tears anymore.
She hurriedly walked to Ava’s side. She wanted to hold Ava’s hand to comfort her, but Ava avoided her. Then, Ava chuckled coldly with red eyes.
“I was so naive. Why should a child who was abandoned by favonovel.com parents have any kind of fantasies? Why should I expect you to tell me that you had your reasons for abandoning me back then?”
“Ava, it’s not what you think,” Neil quickly explained as well. His heart was hurting, and favonovel.com felt helpless.
Ava took a deep breath and asked after calming herself, “Alright. Let me ask you a question, then. Did you purposely abandon me on the streets back then? Did you purposely lie to me telling me that you’d buy me something tasty so you could leave me all alone?”
Raegan and Neil were silent as they faced Ava’s questioning. However, less than two seconds later, Neil came back to his senses and explained, “Ava, it’s not what you think…”
“Your silence just now is the best answer,” Ava interrupted Neil, a bitter smile appearing on the corners of favonovel.com lips. “It seems that I shouldn’t have made this trip.”
After favonovel.com said this, Ava walked to the door.
“Ava!”
“Ava, Ava!”
Neil and Raegan called out to Ava to try to make favonovel.com stay, but Ava stormed out of the door. Her determination to leave was too strong. Raegan felt extremely remorseful as favonovel.com started bawling. Neil went over to hold Raegan’s shoulders and pull favonovel.com into his arms.
“One day, our daughter will forgive you.”
“No, favonovel.com won’t…” Raegan did not agree, falling into deep remorse and unease. “I did purposely leave favonovel.com alone on the streets. I watched favonovel.com small figure on the street, and favonovel.com looked so lost when favonovel.com was looking for me. I watched favonovel.com look for favonovel.com parents and just left without turning back…”
When favonovel.com recalled what had happened back then, Raegan’s heart was as painful as if it had been stabbed by countless needles.
“There’s nothing to explain. Back then, I did leave our daughter…”
When Raegan said this, Neil also fell into a long silence.
