Rebirth of the Wife in Despair by Tess Munoz

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.

Nancy didn’t appear flustered. Instead, she calmly waited for Layla to speak..

he is indeed an offspring of the Smith family. State your intentions. If you intend to use the child to marry into the Smith family, I will not agree.

you saying that the Smith family’s offspring is only worth this much? If I remember correctly, becoming Mrs. Smith will net me far more than this. I haven’t forgotten it was you who asked me to leave back then. I agreed mostly because of this child. If Lhad stayed in Hulbury, given your nature, I’m afraid I wouldn’t have been able to keep the baby..

You said that when we have a child. you would provide it a complete home, unlike your own broken one. You would do everything in your power to give them the best of everything. Now that we have a child, you’re going back on your word. Is everything you’ve said and done fair to me? Because of another woman, you sent me to prison with a single sentence, and I almost died in a mental hospital. Can you honestly tell me you don’t feel you owe me anything? Right now, Eileen can’t get pregnant, but I… I can give you a complete family.
