Jill was stunned. She unconsciously withdrew the knife.
But Karl Moore pulled hard and it stabbed into her chest. The tip of the knife pierced her skin and blood gushed out. Jillâs eyelids twitched.
However, Karl Moore didnât seem to feel any pain. His eyes were still filled with anger and determination. âLook, as a father, I didnât even know I had a daughter. As a mother, you didnât treat her right either. The child owes you nothing. Clearly itâs the two of us who owe the girl. Since you want to find someone to die with, then Iâll do it with you! Why make trouble for our daughter, donât you agree?â
He pressed the knife against his chest again. âCome on, use some strength and it will go in. Then, youâll kill yourself. This way, weâll pay our debt to our daughter!â
âLunatic!â Jill watched as the knife plunged into her chest. She was so frightened that her hands relaxed and she took a few steps back. She shouted angrily, âLunatics, youâre all lunatics!â
But Karl Moore held the knife and played with it in her hand. âArenât you going to kill yourself?â
galnovels . com is your storytelling hub Jill glared at him.
Karl Moore said, âWhy do you have to make things difficult for your daughter? Do you have to see her unhappy? Can you stop disturbing your daughterâs life?â
With a few words, he changed the subject.
Jill still wanted to say something, but Karl Moore stepped forward and said, âAre you sorry again? Then come, kill meâ¦â
Jill stepped back.
Karl Moore took another step forward. âAre you going to kill yourself or not? Speak frankly. If itâs not the case⦠Get out!â
Karl Mooreâs expression suddenly darkened.
Jill had seen how frightening he was. She was so scared her whole body was shaking. Then, she ran out. âLunatics, youâre all lunatics!â
ââ¦â
Since the one involved had escaped, the reporters no longer surrounded the Smith house.
At that point, Joel stepped forward and said, âItâs not easy for you reporters to come here. How about this? Come on in, everybody, and have a drink.â
With that, he shot a glance at the butler.
The butler immediately understood something and greeted everyone cordially. Who among the reporters didnât want to visit a wealthy family like the Smiths? When they heard this, they were overjoyed. The butler welcomed them inside.
It was time for the butler and the reporters to engage with each other so that the reporters would refrain from spreading rumors. Of course, the butler handled everything on his own.
As the head of the family, Joel no longer needed to worry.
At that moment, his gaze fell on Tanya and Karl Moore. As he expected, Tanya was looking at Karl Moore with a worried expression.
Actually, he could have stepped in and taken care of Jill earlier. Joel had plenty of ways to deal with someone as shameless as she was.
And anyone present could easily strike back at him.
However, no one made a move and Karl Moore had the opportunity.
His goal was to help him get closer to Tanya.
By the looks of it, it had worked.
After the reporters settled in, the group returned to the living room in the residential area.
Tanyaâs gaze landed on Karl Mooreâs chest. She asked, âNora, are his injuries serious?â
Before Nora could say anything, Karl Moore said, âItâs not serious, itâs not serious! Itâs just the top of the skin. Itâs nothing. I donât even bother to look at those wounds, theyâll heal by themselves.â
His words stunned Tanya. âDo you get injured often?â
How could she not get injured after being in the underworld all year?
Karl Moore was quick to shake his head. âNot often. Just once in a while. Once in a while⦠heheheâ¦â
He scratched his head and showed a sincere expression. âTanya⦠May I call you by your name?â
ââ¦â Tanya pursed her lips and said in disgust, âItâs your mouth, I canât control the way you call me.â
Although her tone was awkward, she agreed.
Karl Moore was overjoyed. He immediately pulled a black card from his pocket excitedly and handed it to Tanya. âTanya, this, this card is for you? You can buy anything you want! There is no limit.â
Tanya: ââ¦â
Karl Moore handed her the car keys in his hand. âOh, and this. I bought this car when I came back to the country. Itâs not very functional, though. Drive this for now. If thereâs any other model you like, buy it for yourselfâ¦â
âOh! You need a house, can I buy one for you?â
Tanya looked at him, then handed him back the card and keys. âNo need. Iâll buy them with my own money.â
His eyes flickered as he looked away, but he sighed inwardly.
To be honest, Tanya had lived badly since she was little and her mother had hated her every minute of the day. She didnât know who her father was, she was used to living alone.
She couldnât get used to this new father of hers.
Karl Moore looked at the black card in his hand and looked back at Tanya. He wanted to say something, but Joel beat him to it. âMr. Moore, Tanya is with me and she lacks nothing. You donât have to worry about her at the moment.â
Karl Moore looked at Joel and finally nodded. âOkay, then Iâll take the card.â
With that, he looked at Tanya.
His big eyes were full of desire, as if he would be satisfied if Tanya could say just one more word to him.
Tanya sighed. âThereâ¦you can go.â
Karl Moore looked down in disappointment, but he knew such things could not be forced.
His daughter was already 25 or 26 years old. She was independent and no longer needed him.
As much as he wanted to give her all the love he owed her for twenty years, she could no longer keep it.
Karl Moore turned his head and headed for the door. After two steps, he turned and looked at her reluctantly.
Tanya: ââ¦â
He rubbed his forehead and asked suddenly, âIf youâre not busy, why donât you stay for dinner tonight?â
âYes, yes, Iâm free!â
Karl Moore turned around and hurriedly sat down on the couch.
Everyone else: ââ¦â
Why did the leader of the Assassin Organization look so stupid?
As he looked on the Internet, he seemed quite intelligent.
Noraâs lips twitched. She sat to the side and narrowed her eyes. She picked up her phone and fiddled with something. When the others looked at her, she looked sleepy again. The others sat across from each other, feeling a little uncomfortable.
Suddenly, Noraâs fingers stopped. She looked at them and frowned. âTanya, the date of birth on your ID card is wrong, isnât it?â
Tanya hesitated. âWhatâs wrong?â
However, Karl Moore said, âIndeed, it is wrong. When I left your mother, it was in August. At that time, if she was pregnant, she should have given birth to you in April the following year. Why did your ID card show you were born in January?â
Tanya was stunned. âIs it possible that they changed my age? I was born four months premature?â
âThatâs even more wrong.â
Nora looked at her. âYou and Hillary are only less than a year apart. If your mother gave birth to you in April, how did she give birth to Hillary?â
After a woman gave birth, it would take at least 40 days for her to get pregnant again!
Tanya was also stunned. âSo, whatâs going on?â
At that moment, Karl Moore frowned. âIsnât Hillary your biological daughter?â
