Hiding Behind Her Superficiality by Kyla Olson

Chapter 573 Sending Gifts

Welson Harley was a man of privilege. He was rarely treated with such an attitude. The colors on his face instantly turned dull at Elspeth’s words. Nonetheless, he had worked so hard to locate his long-lost daughter that he was too embarrassed to reprimand her. “Elspeth, I—”

However, Elspeth retained her cold attitude. “That’s enough, Mr. Harley. If there is nothing else to address, I will leave first.” With that, she turned around to leave while the butler on her side quickly tagged along.

Once she left, Welson heaved a heavy sigh. “Yozan, have I ever mistreated you after all these years? I gave you the best education, supported you financially, and even let you inherit the family business.” He thought he had given his son everything he could besides the unnecessary fatherly love.

However, Yozan didn’t seem to be content with them. Even after obtaining everything he could, he still longed for his father’s attention and concern. In addition, he should not expect those from Welson because he wasn’t going to give those to him.

On the other hand, every time Welson looked at Yozan, it brought back memories of a woman desperately trying to get into his bed twenty years ago. How appalling! As a result, Welson harbored deep resentment toward his son. Hence, when the woman who gave birth to his son died from complications during labor, he could finally resolve one of his concerns. Nonetheless, he found it absurd that she had gone through so much to bring Yozan into the Harley Family, only to die before she could enjoy the blessing.

Watching his father plunge into his own thoughts, Yozan frowned. “I don’t need any of those from you.” He was born and raised in the Harley Family, so it stood to reason that he should be grateful. Unfortunately, he was a rebel. Growing up, he always felt wronged and aggrieved. Perhaps, he was mindful of too many things at once and always dreamed about having something unreachable.

you sure you don’t need any of these?” Welson snickered at his son’s statement.
