Chapter 292 He Does Not Want Me

The child’s eyes were filled with innocent confusion. As Jasper lowered his head to meet his gaze, his heart trembled. Just one look reminded him of the painful memories from his childhood.

Jasper’s countenance looked even worse than one could imagine, his expression icy cold.

Layla shot Martha a meaningful look. Catching her eye, Martha stepped forward and picked up the young boy. “Mr. Oliver, let me take you to play with your toys. Mr. Jasper has some important matters to discuss.”

Oliver Smith reached out to Jasper with tears in his eyes. “I want a hug from Daddy.”

Jasper’s demeanor was icy as he glanced at the child just once before coldly walking away and taking a seat on the couch off to one side.

With a smile gracing her face, Nancy’s gaze never left him. Oliver, crying and wanting to get down. quickly ran to Nancy’s side.

Nancy reached out, lifting him onto her lap. The little one wrapped his arms around her neck, his expression sad as he cried mournfully, “Mommy, why doesn’t Daddy like me? Did I do something wrong? You said as long as I behave, Daddy will like me, but he won’t hug me…”

Tiny teardrops dripped down his face, the child’s crying enough to break one’s heart.

Nancy wiped the tears from the child’s face. “Daddy doesn’t dislike you, Ollie. Will you be a good boy and go play with Martha for a while? Once Daddy and Mommy finish talking, we’ll come and play with you.”

“All right.” The little one nodded understandingly.

As Oliver was led away by Martha, he turned back one last time, casting a pitiful glance at Jasper, who sat coldly on the couch.

Jasper stared at Nancy with a chilly gaze. His voice was as cold as frost. “I will not acknowledge this child,” he declared resolutely.
