Deep Love Hidden From Him novel Chapter 396

Wilson's gaze turned gloomy as he glanced at her.

"Dad, what do you really want from us? I've always known that you and Mom aren't really happy together, and I know that Hansen and I aren't legitimate children, but none of it matters to us. All we want is a harmonious family, but you've ruined everything," Loraine said meaningfully.

He walked over and sat beside her. He had never had a heart- to- heart conversation with Loraine before. All the while, he treated Hansen and Loraine as little kids, and never cared about their opinions.

However, that day, he finally realized that the little girl in his eyes had already grown up.

She was no longer the little girl who would always ask him for sweets.

"Loraine, you know that I still love you."

"No, you don't. You only love your power. Godfrey Group is everything to you. Dad, please just sign the divorce papers. I don't want to see Mom being unhappy for the rest of her life," she pleaded.

Yvonne had been called the other woman for decades, yet she was still living a miserable life.

Loraine wanted her mother to be happy.

Wilson looked at her in a daze and asked, "Who told you about this?"

"No one told me anything. I've been spending the past year in Godfrey Group, and I can clearly remember everything that they said about Mom and I. They do accept us, but that's only because Mom has their secrets in her hands," she said.

His expression was cold. He didn't expect his own daughter to know so much.

"Loraine, stop. You know nothing about the adults' world."

"But I know how Mom feels. If you insist on going your way, you won't get anything in return." Judging by his expression, Loraine knew that her words wouldn't change his mind.

However, she couldn't control him, and she didn't want to.

Wilson stood up. He took a deep breath and said, "Rest well. I'll visit you again sometime soon."

She lowered her head and didn't say a word.

He knew that she was still holding a grudge against him, and didn't expect her to forgive him. He turned around and left.

Right at the corner of the corridor, he bumped into Everleigh, who was carrying a fruit basket. She

was surprised to see him there.

"Miss Trevino, what a coincidence. It seems like I'll run into you every single time I come to visit Loraine," he said.

"Mr. Godfrey, just get to the point, you don't have to beat around the bush," she responded indifferently. She wasn't bothered by his attitude at all.

Through Loraine's incident, she had learned how ruthless this man was. All that courtesy was just a mask to hide his cruel and ugly side.

His expression stiffened. His eyes opened wide, and a trace of evil could be felt in his gaze. "Miss Trevino, you'd better think before you speak. It's not really kind of you to deliberately ruin the relationship between my daughter and I."

She sneered, "Mr. Godfrey, your reasoning is rather shocking. Loraine isn't a kid anymore. She doesn't need others to tell her everything that is happening around her. How could you place the blame on me?"

"Things like this wouldn't have happened if people like you chose to keep your mouth shut," he responded.

"Nope. If you weren't blinded by your greed, your relationship with your daughter would've been much better," she refuted.

"You... "

He glared at her fiercely.

She wasn't scared at all. She stared back at him too.

They were locked in a stalemate. If it wasn't for a nurse who walked over to greet Dr. Trevino, neither of them would have backed away.

Wilson snorted and strode away.

Everleigh fixed her gaze on him until he vanished from sight. Then, she headed over to Loraine's ward.

Leon had brought over plenty of fruits earlier that day. She couldn't finish them, so she decided to turn them into a fruit basket to be given to Loraine. She didn't expect to run into Wilson.

She was wondering if he had said something to the girl.
