Chapter 80 - The Liar and The Bitch (3) (1/2)

”Since you've decided already, then go for it.” Ted sighed and looked at her daughter. What could he do? Her daughter and Alex had a chile already. Might as well let them be together for real. It would be much better that way so that Sky would be raised in a whole family, rather than bastard.

”Dad.” April gulped, her eyes were getting teary.

Hearing her husband's answer, Annie teared up as well. She patted April's hand and gave it a tight squeeze.

April smiled to her mother and handed Sky to her. She got up and kneeled in front of her father.

”Dad. Thank you and I love you.” April's tears were now falling down. She could never forget how much her father sacrificed everything in order to find her. She will never forget how much her father felt hurt when she didn't recognized him.

Seeing his daughter cry, Ted's heart moved. He sighed and wiped her tears away. April was his only daughter. The daughter that he doted a lot since birth. When he lost her before, honestly he didn't know think that she'd still survive. But he never gave up on looking for her.

”Silly child. Why are you crying?” Ted brushed some hair away from her face.

April pouted and finally broke down. Ted held April into his chest and patted her back. ”It's okay. Father isn't mad anymore. As long as you're happy, me and your mother will always be here for you. If there comes a day that Alex doesn't want you anymore, our home will always be open for you. Just come back to us and we will take care of you till you get old.” Ted wiped his tears secretly.

Annie chuckled but tears were falling down like rain on her face. Seeing everyone crying, Sky hugged his grandmother tightly. He too was affected by the mood and cried.

”Oh no, no. Dear don't cry.” Annie held Sky tightly. Not knowing who to console first. Herself, her husband, her child or her grandson? Annie didn't know whether to laugh or cry at this moment.

”What did you say?” Alex stared at James. As soon as he landed down, James gave him bad news.

”Francesca is in the hospital. Apparently, she tried to commit suicide. She slit her wrist and she lost quite a lot of blood. Luckily, Beverly found her in time and sent her to the hospital. She needs blood transfusion.” James sighed.
