Chapter 44 The Painful Past Mia blinked her eyes. After a long time, she found her voice. âHow⦠how did you know?â âIsnât it very simple?â
Ben blinked innocently. âIsnât him your former husband?â
Mia only felt that there was a breath stuck in her chest and didnât know if she should spit it out.
Childrenâs logic was indeed very simple, and it was sharp enough.
After a long silence, she finally nodded and said, âYes, he is your father.â
Anna finally understood what they meant. She looked at Mia and Ben in confusion. âFather? Where did this father come from?â
âThat bad guy.â Ben told Anna concisely.
Anna widened her eyes and said, âThen we donât want this father, letâs change.â
The depression in Miaâs chest suddenly dissipated. She covered her eyes and took a deep breath.
âYouâ¦â
She knew that the two children had fantasized about their father when they were young, but because she avoided talking about him, they gradually stopped asking about this person.
Ben walked up to Mia and took her hand. His dark eyes were filled with determination as he said, âJoe made you unhappy. We donât want him.â
Mia smiled at them with red eyes.
She couldnât possibly pretend to be magnanimous and tell the children that Joe was their father, and that they should let go of the grudges and reconcile with him. She couldnât possibly give Joe the slightest chance to snatch them away from her.
Five years ago, she went abroad in low spirits, only to find herself pregnant after being retrieved by her family.
Mia almost didnât hesitate to keep the children.
At that time, she had not yet gained a firm foothold in the Clinton Family and was just informed all kinds of things about her mother. It could be said that every step was difficult for her. In addition, her premature pregnancy reaction was extremely serious. She could only rely on Nutrients to maintain her life. In less than three months, she had lost a third of her weight.
Fortunately, some of her relatives took good care of her, so she gradually came out of that terrible state.
The most dangerous thing was that she had a hemorrhage when she gave birth to the babies.
At that time, she was almost injected with the amount of blood that an adult should have before she was barely rescued. What followed was a long-term recovery and recuperation. She had been lying in the hospital for three months.
She even remembered that when she was discharged from the hospital, the two children had already shed their jaundice and looked white and tender. When they saw her for the first time, they smiled sweetly at her.
Coming back to her senses, Mia held the two children in her arms and said nothing.
Anna whispered to Mia, âWill David be our father?â
Mia was stunned and replied in a gentle voice, âHe is not yet. Do you like him?â
Anna nodded heavily. âHe has a lot of delicious food. If he is my father, I can eat delicious food every day!!â
Even David himself would not have thought that one day he would win in this respect.
âIf you donât like him, I can help you find other men secretly!â Anna nodded heavily and said seriously, âDonât worry, a man who is good to children must be a good man!â
Mia didnât know whether to laugh or cry. She couldnât persuade them, so she finally decided to take them to the company.
