“Sean, where did you put the gifts your mom gave you for your birthday?”
Suddenly, Franklin realized that I had been making birthday gifts for Sean every year.
But Sean casually replied, “I tossed that bad woman’s gifts in the trash! It’s filthy! I don’t want it!”
“You…” Franklin raised his hand, wanting to hit his son, but the slap
never came.
He paused, remembering that he had been there when Sean threw those things away. He had even praised him, saying it was right to do
- SO.
What reason did he have to scold Sean now?
As he thought about it, he suddenly recalled my father.
Everyone could clearly see how I felt about my father.
My father had rejected me as his daughter. Even though I was only met with insults every time I visited, I still made a point to go see him once
a month.
He hurried to my father’s house.
But when he entered, he saw Della and my father happily chatting, just like a real father and daughter.

The two were glad to see him, but when they learned he was looking for Chelsea, my father grew quiet.
After a long pause, he finally spoke, “Franklin, Della has cared for you and Sean for many years. It’s time to acknowledge her properly.
“As for that ungrateful Chelsea, since she had the sense to step aside on her own, there’s no need to bother asking where she’s gone.
“Besides, she is a convict and doesn’t deserve to be Mrs. Wagner.”
Della felt pleased and gazed at Franklin with anticipation.
However, Franklin stayed silent for a long time and never gave response she was hoping for.

With a cold expression, Franklin left without taking Della along.
On his way back, he replayed everything that had occurred after I was released from prison.
Embarrassing moments for me kept appearing in his mind one after another.
Eventually, his heart ached, and he pressed his hand to his chest, whispering to himself, “What have I done…”
When Della arrived at the Wagner’s residence, Franklin had not returned yet.
Footsteps sounded from the second floor until Sean appeared at the top of the stairs and, upon seeing Della, rushed down and threw himself into her arms.

Sean immediately pouted. “I don’t want to eat this! I want real food- something you made!”
Della’s face hardened. “Eat this! No dinner!
“Do you really think I’m your nanny? And that I should cook for you?”
“But…” Sean’s eyes welled up with tears. “My mom has always done this for me…”
Della quickly raised her hand and slapped Sean hard across the face.

“You are completely ignorant! How dare you raise your voice at me!
“That was before. Things are different now!
“From this point on, I will be the one in charge of this family, and even Franklin will have to listen to me!”
“Listen to who?” Franklin, who had just walked in, asked in a firm
tone.
