Chapter 49
♡ Lauren’s POV ♡
He looked at me in shock as I took his arm. His eyes were full of surprise, but the surprise was soon overshadowed by pain. I feel like I can't breathe, but I have to take heart for my boy.
"I want him. He's my boyfriend.” I looked at Magee and he was staring at me. Then I turned to Polly. "Do you know why you can't get his heart? Because he always loved me, and I always loved him.”
"What are you talking about, you filthy bitch? I guess I didn't teach you enough.” Said Polly savagely, gesturing to her friends with her eyes. They quickly gathered around me, looking at me with cold eyes.
Just as they are about to do it, Chris suddenly raises his phone and shouts;' I've called the police! Think about it. You're all over 18 now.”
While they were distracted, Chris ran out of the bar with Magee and me. Magee, who had been drinking a lot, was shocked again and now he can't stand up.
Chris and I held him and carried him back to my house.
"Why did you bring him back?” As SOON as I got to the door, the man stood up and yelled at me when he saw Magee we were holding.” Don't you know their family is broke? My friends have told me that their family has no money now, even the house has been taken by the bank. Why are you bringing him back here? He's a liability now.”
I put Magee down on the couch next to me, and this time, I wasn't going to put up with it.
"He's a liability, so what are you? You left us because of other people's wealth, and now you come to us with your daughter because your ex-wife is bankrupt. Don't you think it's shameful of you?”
"I am your father! "He thundered.
"Father? You can say you're Lisa's father. Because you spoiled her like a princess without a tutor. And to me, when have you ever been a father? At least he was there to protect me when I came home late alone. What have you done for me?” I recall my mother's hard work and Magee following me home on his bicycle as a child. His house is not in the same direction as mine. I just thought he was a creepy stalker.
Now I see he was trying to protect me.
I rattled off all my complaints against him, and he just stood there in silence, speechless. He looked at me angrily, as if I were his most dissatisfied daughter.
I rushed to my room on the fourth floor. Lisa was lying on my bed, playing with her phone. Seeing me rush in, she shouted, "What are you doing? How can you be so rude? Don't you know who knocked?”
I ignored her and opened my closet. It is now crammed with her various princess dresses. I took all her clothes out and threw them on the floor and said, "This is my house. Get out of here.” When she saw me like this, she stamped her foot and ran out. I think she's off looking for the father who loves her the most.
Sure enough, my mother, the man, Lisa, and Chris all came into my room while I was cleaning out the closet. 'Father, look what she's done to my room. She's got my clothes dirty.” She accused me of my crimes to that so-called father. Was she telling a joke? When did this become her room?
My mother saw that I was still in a state of anger, worried to come to me. Before my mother could speak, I continued to shout, "Mom, wake up. He abandoned us for money, and he came to you for money. He is not fit to be your husband, and he is not fit to be my father.” In the face of my mother, my tears burst down.
My mother approached me, wiped the tears off my face with her hands, stroked my cheek and said, "I'm sorry, Cami, I thought you'd be happy to have a whole family. I didn't realize this was gonna be so painful. I just want you to know how much your biological father loves you.” "Cried the mother, too.
Mom did all this for me.” Mom, I don't need him and that spoiled sister. My home is where you are.” My mother cried and hugged me and nodded.
Then she turned to the man and said, "I'm sorry, Alan, I can't take you anymore. You can't give my daughter love, you can only give her pain. Please take your daughter and all your luggage and leave.”
The man was so angry that I could see his face contorted.
"What did you say? You bitch.” He walked quickly up to my mother and raised his hand to hit my mother. But his hand was stopped by Chris.” It's wrong to hit a woman.” I thought Chris was very handsome when he said that.
"This is my home, too, and I'm not leaving.” "He said fiercely, crossing his hands across his chest.
It was a strange man's voice: "Your father and mother owned the house Ms. Selina lived in, but since you never took care of them, they transferred the house to Ms. Selina, who took care of them all the time, before they died. So everything she has now is none of your business.” A man in a suit and carrying a briefcase appeared at the door.
Next to him stood a man in a white shirt. He walked over to my mother and protected her behind his back.
"This is our lawyer. Selina wanted to give you a chance to be Cami's father, so I backed off. But instead of being a good father, you're hurting them now, and I'm not gonna let you do that. Please leave now or I will charge you with breaking and entering.” "He said in a solemn tone.
I guessed it was Mr. Smith. I had heard his voice on the phone with my mother.
The man had no choice but to take Lisa and leave.
When the room finally goes quiet, I walk over to Magee, who is still asleep on the couch. His eyelashes were long and his lips full and ruddy. He slept like a lovely angel, which made me want to protect him.
