Chapter 408

Teresa’s small hand wrapped around Marguerite’s neck, giving her an affectionate pat “Mommy, stop! Daddy… Hayes’ daddy is going to apologize to us!”

Apologize? Would Frederick apologize to her? Marguerite hesitated, but eventually halted her steps, slowly turning around The next moment, she saw Frederick’s gaze fixated on her second hand car across the mansion, his voice clear and authoritative, “That’s my mother’s car, Everyone was stunned, thinking, “this man is so stubborn! Is this the time to talk about the car?”

Marguerite remained silent, not surprised at all A month ago, Frederick asked her to return the car, but it had been postponed due to various reasons.

Marguerite held Teresa in one arm, while taking out the car keys from her coat pocket with the other hand, stretching her arm straight out Her open palm still bore the blood marks from banging the door that morning.

And the gauze that wrapped around the wound was long gone, ripped off when she had been steering the car vigorously while chasing her daughter here But despite Marguerite holding out the keys for a long time, Frederick did not step forward to take them, his gaze fixed unblinkingly on her injured palm Marguerite was bewildered. What was Frederick up to?

He wanted her to return the car, and now that she was ready to do so, he seemed displeased?

Teresa’s dissatisfaction grew stronger. What a rotten dad! He’s such a bad guy!

Not only did he not apologize, but he also wanted to take back the car that mommy had been driving for three years!

Although she did not understand why mommy always drove an old car, she knew that this was mommy’s favorite car!

Her dad was just too despicable! She wasn’t going to like him anymore!

Marguerite’s arm, still holding the keys, began to ache from strain. She looked at Frederick with displeasure, demanding, “Do you want it or not?”

Frederick remained silent.

The standoff between the two made the atmosphere on the scene particularly strange.

and you need to leave it behind.”

Jocelyn, seeing this, stepped forward to mediate, “Since you’ve been driving the car all this time, just keep it for now. It’s getting dark, and it’s not easy to get a cab outside” Marguerite thanked Jocelyn, turned around, and drove away Even though Marguerite had left with Teresa, Frederick’s anger could not be quelled.

More than that, he was confused. He did not understand why Teresa had suddenly turned against him!

Where had he offended the kittle girl?

Everyone leisurely walked towards the villa area. Jocelyn, pondering Teresa’s behavior, mused aloud, “Frederick, it seems that Teresa holds a significant grudge against you?”

The little Hayes in his arms also piped up, “Teresa said. daddy is… cheater bad guy…”

Jocelyn continued to think aloud, “The last time I saw Teresa was at Hayes’ birthday party. Nothing much happened then it was just that you and Yuna were a bit affectionate? Hmm, no wonder she’s calling you a cheater”

“I’m not her father, so why should she be angry if I’m affectionate with someone?”

Robert, always one for a good show, couldn’t help but add, “Unless this little girl really sees you as her father!”

Strangely, Robert’s words did not upset Frederick. Instead, it stirred up a peculiar sense of accomplishment, as if being liked by Teresa was some sort of vahdation for him.

Frederick’s mood softened a bit, but then Hayes suddenly lugged at his clothes Frederick turned his head, only to see the little guy staring at him earnestly “Daddy please make up with. Teresa.”

The stern look on Frederick’s face completely disappeared, “Are you afraid Teresa won’t play with you?”

Hayes shook his head quickly, searching for the right words in his mind. Then he straightforwardly and laboriously said, “Teresa will play with me, but if you annoy be your may… not be pleasant”
