---- Chapter 1 When the nanny brought my daughter home from nursery, the latter's eyes were swollen and red from crying. Such a site made my heart ache. "Mommy, do I not have a daddy..." As she sobbed, her body would tremble. This made her look extremely aggrieved. "Daddy promised me that he would go to the nursery's parents' evening, but when he arrived, he told everyone that he's Oliver's daddy." As Melanie said those words, tears continued to trickle down her cheeks. "Mommy, my classmates all said that I don't havea daddy..." Her words made my heart ache. My heart felt like ---- there was a hand squeezing it. My eyes instantly turned red and I quickly pulled Melanie into my arms. I opened my mouth in an attempt to comfort her, but when Mike Ashton's cold face appeared in my head, no words came out. At that moment, I was overwhelmed by regret and hatred. I regretted marrying Mike. I thought that after enduring those four long years, Mike had finally had a change of heart and returned to the country to enjoy life with Melanie and me. However, it turned out that it was simply because Jennifer mentioned she wanted to come back. With just one word from her, he acted like a puppet, booking plane tickets without hesitation. He also obsessed over every little detail and even enrolled his ex-girlfriend's son in the best local nursery. When Melanie and I went to the airport to pick Mike up, she was wearing her favorite dress and was jumping happily around me. She also asked nervously, "Mommy, will Daddy like ---- me?" I forced myself to remain calm and nodded with a smile. "You're Daddy's only daughter, Melanie. Of course, he'll like you." However, when we arrived at the airport expectantly, the site we saw made our hearts ache.
