Chapter10 

Howard took in Grace’s despair before looking back at Rina. His heart softened

Although he didn’t like Grace, she was still Rina’s mother

After all, there was nothing like a loving mother’s care

Hmph

How dare you punish Cindy and try to come back

Kara pouted angrily

Although she’d been busy playing on the slide, she’d heard everything that Grace had said

She leaped down and pounced onto Howard’s leg, wrapping her arms around his thigh

Howard had just been about to say something when her action interrupted him

Rina, what’s wrong?”

Kara simply shook her head and refused to let go of him

Grace stepped forward, wearing a deceptively gentle smile. Rina, how about you give Mommy a hug?” 

Ahhhhhahhhhh!Kara shouted, her arms tightening around Howard’s leg

He could practically feel the fear rolling off of her

Grace was at a loss for words

Taking in Kara’s reaction, Howard leaned forward and picked her up while frowning

Kara seized this opportunity to cling to his neck, refusing to look at Grace

It looks like Rina’s condition is still a bit unstable. I think it’s best that you continue to stay away.” 

Grace’s desperation made her feel like she was going crazy

This little bitch had Howard wrapped around her finger

She glared at Kara, viciousness flashing across her eyes

Rina, let’s head back home, okay?Howard asked softly

Kara nodded obediently

He walked away with Kara tucked in his arms, Alex and Cindy trailing after them

Meanwhile, Grace was rooted in place. As she watched the succession of people leave, she gritted her teeth

Once they got to the car, Howard gently placed the little girl inside

Ouch

I’m sorry, Daddy,” she hurriedly apologized

Seeing Rinaso flustered and timid, he gave her a gentle smile. It’s okay.” 

She lowered her head. At the same time, she secretly clutched the piece of hair she’d taken from his head, pressing it against her heart

Mr. Logan, I’m very sorry. This is all my fault. I didn’t take care of Miss Rina well enough.Cindy bowed her head and apologized

His eyes flashed in her direction. He stated coldly, Cindy, you know my rules.”

I know, Mr. Logan. Once we get back, I’ll pack my things and leave,she replied neutrally

Mr. Handsome wants to kick Cindy out

Kara quickly tugged on his hand. Daddy, don’t send Cindy away.” 

Howard froze, staring at her in shock

It’s my fault, Daddy. It was too stuffy in the house, so I wanted to go out for a walk. Cindy didn’t know, so don’t make her go away, okay?she moped

If Cindy really did leave because of her, she’d feel guilty

Howard remained lost in thought as he listened to her. He felt like he was in a trance. Something told him that this was not 

his Rina

Everyone knew that Rina wasn’t very talkative. She would barely say three words to him in a day

Now, all of a sudden, she’s speaking so clearly and eloquently

Even if she did go through that treatment abroad, there was simply too much progress to be realistic

Meanwhile, Cindy was touched by her words. Seeing you

recover so well makes me so happy, Miss Rina.” 

Um…

It was only then that Kara realized that this wasn’t what Rina was like. Unlike her, Rina was much quieter

Would Mr. Handsome be suspicious

She stole a glance at his face and noticed him looking back at her. Her heart sped up

Does Rina want Cindy to stay?he asked curiously

He secretly hoped to hear her talk some more

Kara nodded

He asked another question. Why doesn’t Rina like Mommy?” 

While most children loved to cling to their mothers, Rina had never shared the same sentiment even when she was 

younger

Her dislike had only gotten more obvious in the past few days

The mean woman is bad, and she hits Rina. I don’t like that

However, Kara knew that she couldn’t mention this to Mr. 

Handsome just yet. So, for now, she kept her head down and stayed quiet

Howard stared at the sudden mood shift that came over her. He furrowed his brow at her despondency

Rina, do you want to play at the amusement park?” 

She was tempted to nod enthusiastically, but she had to stay. committed to Rina’s character. She continued to stay silent, not bothering to express her thoughts

Howard’s frown deepened at this version of Rina. This one was much closer to her original behavior, but now it all felt like an illusion

He didn’t give up, though, and tried again tentatively. Rina, Daddy will take you to the amusement park tomorrow weekend, okay?” 

The amusement park? 

Kara felt her heart soar with excitement, but she kept her emotions hidden. Her only response was a quiet nod

On the way back home, no matter how many times Howard spoke to her, Kara only gave short answers or simple nods

Once they arrived, she went straight up to her room and locked the door

Knowing her closedoff personality, Howard decided not to bother her anymore

Behind her locked door, Kara got busy. She rummaged around until she found a zipper bag and carefully deposited the hairs from Howard’s head

All that was left was to keep it safe

With Sally, she, too, took her children back home

Scarlet stood off to the side, profusely apologizing. I’m so sorry, Ms. Brown. It’s all my fault for not properly taking care of Micah and Kara.” 

Mommy, it’s not Scarlet’s fault, it’s ours. Kara and I were bored at home, so we ran out to have fun.Micah hurriedly took the blame and owned up to his actions

This selfawareness and sense of responsibility made Sally proud inside

On the outside, though, she remained serious. Don’t you know that it’s not good to sneak out like that? Do you know

how worried Mommy and Scarlet were when we couldn’t find you? And your smartwatches were turned off. Bomsville is so big. If we hadn’t been able to find you, who knows where we would’ve gone to look?” 

I’m sorry, Mommy. We know that we were wrong.Micah lowered his head, fully admitting his mistake

Rina followed suit, bowing her head and looking mournful

At the sight of her children’s pitiful appearances, Sally couldnt bear to scold them anymore

I know it must be hard for you two to stay home all day. How about I take you both to the amusement park tomorrow?” 

Yes!Micah jumped around happily

When Rina heard the offer, her expression shifted

Seeing her children so excited summoned a smile from Sally

I’m also at fault for being so busy over the past few days. I haven’t been spending enough time with them

Micah’s eyes twinkled knowingly as he asked her, his voice tinged with curiosity, Mommy, do you know the man that you met at the park?”

Rina raised her eyebrows doubtingly, studying Sally’s reaction

The smile on Sally’s face momentarily stiffened. Yes, he’san old friend.” 

Well, look at you two. After playing at the park, you’re all covered in mud. Go and wash up now,she suddenly changed the topic

Catching onto his mommy’s reluctance, Micah understood not to ask again

Okay, Mommy. Kara and I will go back to our room first.” 

All right, go on then.She watched the two of them leave before letting her vision darken

She and Howard already had children and lives of their own

Having a life together was simply not meant to be

She mentally scolded herself to let go and move on, but her heart was pinned in place by a redhot knife
