All Too Late

Chapter 329 Severing All Ties If You Do Not Apologize

Federick, too, thought Levi was being foolish, but he concluded that Levi must really like Gizem to thwart her from becoming Desi’s stepmother.

Desi’s eyes rimmed with tears. “You are my mommy!”

Gizem stroked her head without saying anything, and Madeline nodded from where she stood as Federick narrowed his eyes.

“Levi, you had better apologize to her,” Gizem ordered.

“No.” He turned his head away in refusal.

“We’ll sever all ties if you don’t apologize to her.” She issued an ultimatum.

He whipped his head back and mumbled an apology, “I’m sorry, Ms. Macari.”

Desi grunted and held onto Gizem more tightly, burrowing her head deeper into Gizem’s embrace.

Jealousy consumed Levi as he looked at both of them.

Samuel strode into the room at that moment, not realizing that there was another person in the room, and Gizem could feel the beginnings of a headache.

Levi glanced at Samuel and smiled. “Mr. Macari, your daughter is pestering my girlfriend to be her stepmother.”

He was hinting at Samuel to do something about Desi’s behavior.

Federick snickered at Levi.

He’s a grown man, but he’s actually snitching on a kid.

Samuel walked over to Desi, who pouted piteously, “Daddy.”

He knew she wanted a mommy, but Gizem wasn’t her mommy.

“Come here, Desi.” Samuel lifted her in his arms and shot Levi a cold look. “I apologize for my daughter’s misbehavior. I’ll talk to her about it.”

Desi looped her arms around Samuel’s neck, buried her face in his neck, and sobbed quietly.

Levi sneered.
