"Charlotte's custody is still in my hands. When you took Charlotte away without my permission and now prevent me from seeing her, it constitutes an illegal confinement.”
"I haven't seen her in four years. I just want to be alone with my daughter undisturbed. Is this also illegal confinement?” Mark said with a deep voice, his thin lips curling up. 1
"Well, how long do you plan to be alone with her? Three days, five days, one week, or half a month?
There has got to be a time limit. You tell me, and I will pick up Charlotte after that."
Summer took a deep breath and suppressed the billowing thoughts in her mind, telling herself to calm down.
Mark's eyes narrowed, his lips twitching. "Let her stay with me for four years, after which we may renegotiate the custodial rights."
He was playing her.
He did not mean to return Charlotte at all. She could n o longer suppress her anger but blew her top. "Mark, you are a jerk! A horrible jerk!"
His eyebrows twitched as he finally knew that
Charlotte learned all those swear words from this woman.
The swear words the mother and daughter used were exactly the same.
"You're confining a child illegally. I will call the police!"
"You’re free to do so, Ms. Hart. I will go to court to challenge your custodial right." He stared at her with deep eyes.
"I have Charlotte's custodial rights! We have the agreement. You promised me. You can’t break your word!" Summer became agitated.
