“But my father will be released from prison soon. He will definitely resent my mother for reporting his domestic abuse. We won’t have any peace,” Michelle said, biting her lip, looking pitiful
Shirley frowned slightly, displeased by this comment.
She despised domestic abusers, but their father could not support them forever.
Cynthia’s gaze shifted.
It all started when Mandy sought their father’s help due to domestic violence. He found her a lawyer, which led to the subsequent events.
A complex tide of emotions surged in her heart.
“The property I’ve given you has excellent security, with shopping resources available exclusively for residents within the complex. As long as you don’t go out of your way to contact him, he can’t get in,” Jonathan said nonchalantly.
Mandy had divorced that man.
Even if he wished to cause trouble, he would not be able to bypass the community’s security. Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
“But we will have to go out Michelle protested.
Jonathan cut her off. “If you encounter dangers or problems you can’t handle, call the police. Moreover, with the money I gave you, you could hire two bodyguards. As long as you don’t purchase too many luxury items, that money could ensure a comfortable life for you both.”
Mandy and Michelle were both taken aback.
At this moment, both of them understood clearly; Jonathan genuinely did not wish for any further entanglements with them, and his two daughters were his absolute limits. The conversation ended, and Mandy was acutely aware that her efforts over the past two years had self–destructed.
She had overestimated her standing in Jonathan’s heart and underestimated his affection for Cynthia. If she had not seen someone berate their own daughter for the sake of their beloved, she would not have dared to take such a risk. She thought that all she needed to do was to frame Cynthia, leading Jonathan to dislike her. However, only now she came to understand. She could do anything, anything except targeting his daughters.
As they were leaving, Jonathan instructed his driver to drop them off. The distance from the house was considerable, and it was late at night. He did not want any mishaps on his property. Once the two women had left, tranquility was promptly restored in the living room.
Suddenly, Jonathan seemed uncertain about how to converse with his daughters. “Dad,” Shirley began. “Yes?” replied Jonathan. “Which property dad you give them?” Shirley was curious. “I just bought it. It’s in the north, a bit far from the city center, but not too remote.” Jonathan pursed his lips, feeling a bit guilty.
“And the money?”
“What?”
“Didn’t you mention you gave them some money?”
As soon as this was said, Jonathan cleared his throat, slightly embarrassed Was Shirley about to settle accounts with him? However, he had earned has money rightfully. It should not be too much of an issue if he chooses to give some of it away.
“Um, thirty million,” answered Jonathan. He had calculated enough for them to lead a wealthy lifestyle as long as they did not splurge on luxury items, especially since the property was already provided. Shirley gave it some thought but did not say much more.
Cynthia remained composed the entire time. She did not participate much in the matter of money and the house. “I have made up my mind. I am not going to marry again, just you two. I will watch you both get married and settle down, as long as you’re happy, that’s all that matters,” Jonathan declared very earnestly, his eyes filled with a warm smile as he looked at his
daughters.
“Don’t contradict yourself later,” Shirley joked with him. Jonathan reassured her with conviction, “I promise I won’t.”
“I don’t plan on getting married anytime soon,” Cynthia preempted. She did not want to he nagged about it later. “Don’t Introduce anyone to me even if you meet someone exceptional.”
