Chapter 327 - Disappointment (1/2)

. He just had to ease them into the conversation. Hopefully, something good would come out of it.

”Well, her birthday is coming up soon. She saw her father's post on Facebook and figured the might be planning something for her. I wanted to work with them and plan something big for her, and so that they could talk,” Liam explained as he glanced at the woman. To his confusion, they glanced at each other with a shake of their heads. He didn't understand what was going on.

”Yeah my brother posted that because we're unveiling a new property to put on the market that day. It'll be our biggest yet,”the woman replied.

Liam felt his heart sink into his stomach, not expecting to hear that from her. He could've sworn the post had something to do with Ying Sheng since it was talking about the day that her birthday landed on.

He didn't think they'd care about anything else happening that day, much less plan anything on that day besides something for her birthday. Maybe they were worse than he had originally thought. Maybe Ying Sheng was right to leave them behind. They only seemed to care about themselves.

”So, they're not going to do anything for her birthday? Not even reach out to her? What happened between them…..it really hurt her,” Liam told them as a frown crossed his face. He wished that they could realize how much they had hurt Ying Sheng because of how they treated her. It was a big part of her sadness that she consistently battled with, and they probably had no idea.

”Yes, we know. Unfortunately our brother is too stupid to care about his own daughter” The woman scoffed with a shake of her head.

Liam kept his eyes from narrowing, from the woman's tone he could see that she was disappointed with her brother.

”All she wants is their support and care.” Liam replied, unable to help his slightly sharp tone. He understood they had a rocky relationship, but that didn't mean it was right for them to just dismiss their own child like that. ”You have no business talking to us about our family, okay? I don't know what you thought you would accomplish coming here,” The man muttered as he glared at Liam.

Maybe it wasn't his place, but Liam cared about Ying Sheng He had wanted to help bridge a divide, but one side didn't want to cooperate. They didn't care about their daughter at all. Their one duty as parents was to take care of their daughter, and they hadn't even done that.

They might have kept a roof over her head and kept her fed while she was growing up, but that wasn't parenting. That was the b.a.r.e minimum. They didn't let her express her feelings and fears. They didn't encourage her to follow her dreams or show her any support. They weren't there for her, even if they lived in the same house for years.

Seeing the determined look on Liam's face, the man sighed.

”Look, I appreciate what you're trying to do for Ying Sheng. But her parents are currently not available.”
