Not One, But Two!

Chapter 20

Chapter 20

Greg did not even bother looking at Abigail as he walked past her, which made it seem like she didn't exist at all. In the meantime, Abigail was trying really hard to suppress her anger, but what the man did was seemingly a little too much for her to put up with. "That's my daughter, Greg!"

However, Greg ignored the lady's words and turned his attention to Alissa while gently asking, "Do you want to come to my house?"

"Can I?" Alissa was excited, but she peeked at her mother warily to observe her expression.

Abigail felt as though a bucket of ice water had been poured on her, finding it hard to believe that her daughters would choose Greg over her without hesitation even though she was the one who had raised them throughout the past five years. For that, she didn't even dare to imagine how things would turn out should the paternity test result prove that Greg was indeed their father. Upon thinking about this, she began to feel panicky and told herself that she must never let Greg take her two children, whom she reckoned were the only family members she had, away from her. Thus, she quickly followed the man and said, "Wait up, Greg!"

Nonetheless, Greg didn't respond to Abigail at all. Despite his sweaty back, Alissa couldn't help feeling excited as she stayed in his arms. In fact, she found her father's embrace so much different from her mother's. This is what it feels like to be in Daddy's arms. It's totally different from when Mom carries me because Dad's firm chest makes me feel so safe. "Daddy, can you hug me like this until we arrive at your house?"

Greg was stunned upon hearing the child's words. Although Alissa hid her emotions well, the man could tell from her tone that she was feeling excited and content.

It only took one hug from me to make Alissa feel over the moon. Damn you, Abigail! You're the reason I've missed a big part of my little girl's childhood. You've deprived her of the fatherly love she deserves, and you cannot be forgiven for that.

When those thoughts filled the man's mind, he then looked back and glared at Abigail.

At the same time, Abigail was feeling bewildered about her daughter's 'betrayal' when Greg's angry stare suddenly stunned her.

What did I do to deserve that look? I haven't done anything else to him, have I? Furthermore, he is the one who's taking my daughter away from me! Why is he still staring at me like that? No way! You're not going to stare me down with your big eyes. She then opened her eyes widely and gawked at Greg in response. In order to make herself look more intimidating, she kept her chest up by arching it and jutting her chin, revealing her curvy silhouette underneath her clothes.

Greg froze slightly before his gaze darkened upon seeing this, whereas Abigail sensed the change in his eyes and subconsciously kept her head down, feeling overwhelmed by a sense of embarrassment.

What a scoundrel!

She then clenched her jaw and cursed Greg silently, but the man ignored her once again and turned his attention to Alissa. "I'll never say no to my little princess. In fact, I could even carry you in my arms while strolling around Harrion."

"Really?" Alissa felt as if she was in a dream, wondering why the man she called Daddy had left them since he was so mild-mannered. Thus, she directly asked, "Why did you leave me and Mommy five years ago, Daddy?"
