Hillary stared at Mia incredulously.

She even suspected whether she had misheard just now.

What was that heartless little wench saying? Did she not feel even the slightest bit of reluctance to part with her? She clenched her fists.

“What did you say, Mia?”

Mia met her eyes and repeated timidly, “I’ll be a good girl, Mommy.You don’t have to worry about me.”

Hillary felt a wave of frustration that she simply couldn’t get off her chest.

The look in her eyes gradually turned menacing.

She wanted to lose her temper and make a scene, but when she saw the man seated on the sofa, she ultimately suppressed the urge.

As expected, those unrelated by blood would never be faithful! She had never dared to treat her unkindly all these years or at least, she hadn’t dared to abuse her, lest Joel discovers it.

All she had done was complain that Mia wasn’t a boy and even so, Joel had given her a warning.

Hillary wanted to say more, but Joel looked over dispassionately and said, “Aren’t you in a hurry? You can leave after you say goodbye to Mia.’

“Okay.”

Hillary didn’t dare to say any more.

She nodded, took a deep breath, and went upstairs.

After doing a simple packing of her things, she came back down and said, “I only took some of the clothes that I usually wear, Joel.I’ll go home for a few days for now…I’ll come back again when you aren’t this mad anymore, okay?”

Joel neither agreed nor disagreed.

He merely gave her a small smile.

Hillary couldn’t help but become lost in his smile.

Who wouldn’t fall in love with such a handsome and gentle man? She left the house with her suitcase.

After she left, Joel turned to Mia.

He picked up his daughter and locked at her little oval-shaped face.

Her big eyes were filled with puzzlement.

He suddenly asked, “Mia, let’s not allow Mommy to come back anymore.Is that okay?”

Mia was still young, so she didn’t understand any of this.

Her eyes merely flickered a little when she heard what her father said.
