I—t was already past ten at night. Mary Ann folded her hands in front of her chest and hid in a corner, waiting for the assistant to drive her home. She didn't know why she had to leave like that either. She could clearly explain a few things to Gracy .
However, Gracy's words still hurt her heart, the pain that she had always hidden in the bottom of her heart.
Was it her fault that she had no father? Was it her mother's fault?
Mary Ann suddenly felt that her eyes were stinging. She had never been so anxious to go back and see his mother like this. She didn't want to make his mother suffer again because of her relationship with her.
"Mary!" The man's worried voice sounded from behind her. Immediately, a tall figure approached her and Leo William chased after him while dressed in a set of clothes.
Mary Ann hurriedly turned her face to the side, and forcefully held back the tears that were rolling in her eyes. However, her voice was a little more depressed than usual, "Why did you come down? Your mother has just returned, so you should accompany her properly!"
"Mary, I'm sorry!" Leo William walked over, but he couldn't very well hug her like he did in the past. He could only look at her with a pained gaze and apologize to her in a low voice.
Mary Ann laughed mockingly, "Why do you have to apologize? This is something everyone knows, your mother did not hurt me!"
"oh baby, don't be like this. I know you're feeling terrible inside. My mom didn't mean to say that. She didn't know you were at home ..."
"If she had known I was there, she would not have said that, much less thought it? Leo William, don't come here to comfort me. I know, I know that since I am born in a single family, I don't have the power to refute anything, because this is the truth!" Mary Ann clearly wanted to hold back her tears, but why did all of them roll down her face the moment she became agitated?
"Mary, I don't care about your background nor whether you are a child from a single family. Please don't laugh at yourself like that, okay? I'll try to persuade my mom! " Leo William reached out his arm, gently holding her shoulders which were trembling, wanting to hug her in his embrace to comfort her.
But, the normally gentle Mary Ann suddenly flung his big hands away, looked at the car in front of him and said: "My assistant is here, get on!"
"Mary ..." Leo William's handsome face froze as he anxiously called her name.
Unfortunately, that stubborn figure was already running towards the car that had just stopped.
Mary Ann opened the door and got in, allowing the assistant to drive.The assistant was confused, "Mary, Mr Luo is coming!"
"Don't bother with him, let's go!" Mary Ann's heart was extremely weak at the moment. She did not want to hear him apologise again, and felt that every time he said it, she would feel terrible.
When Leo William was about to catch up, the black car had already sped past him.
"It's over, will I offend your mother?" The assistant had a frightened look on his face.
At this moment, Mary Ann was in a daze. She did not hear the assistant's cry for help, and her heart was stuffy. Thinking about it now, she still thought that she had been too impulsive, and did not know what to do. Leo William sincerely and sincerely coming down to apologize to her, proved that he still regarded her as very important, but she was willful and did not want to listen to what he had to say.
"How could this be?" She didn't want to hurt him, but she accidentally hurt his heart. Mary Ann buried her face in her palms, feeling extremely uneasy.
