Richest Mogul

Chapter 1522

Finn tried to explain, "I... I'm not as bad as you think. I didn't leave on purpose all those years ago. It was a coincidence. I truly got hurt in an accident..."

He realized that Janine didn't seem to be struggling as he had imagined. In fact, she seemed to be doing remarkably well. The thought made him not want her to think any worse of him. Janine didn't want to hear anymore. "It doesn't matter whether it's true or not. You don't have to explain," she interrupted, cutting him off.

Finn said, "Are you really that indifferent? Janine, I've thought about you and the kids all these years."

Janine scoffed. "Is that so?"

"If you really thought about us, why didn't you show up in the past 20 years?" she thought to herself.

Those words might fool some naïve young woman, but not her. She wasn't the naïve person she had once been.

"Of course, I just... I just couldn't bring myself to face you. I guess I wasn't brave enough." Finn sighed deeply.

Janine glanced at her watch. "I have plans with a friend today and some things to do afterward. You don't have much time, so if you have something to say, get to the point." Finn's expression froze for a moment, his face turning a little pale. He hadn't expected Janine to be so indifferent.
