Adam didn't expect Thirza would beg him. He thought she was the victim.
"What are you talking about? Thirza, are you crazy?"
"Daddy, I'm not crazy. And I know very well what I'm doing."
"Are you sure? If you really know, you won't talk nonsense. Thirza, how old are you? How old is him?"
"Daddy, age is not a problem. I don't care."
"You don't care, but I care. If you marry him, what would others gossip about it?"
"Why should I care about other's gossip?! I should fight for my own happiness, didn't I? Besides, with my family ground, I don't believe anyone would dare to say I marry him for his money!"
Adam was almost choked by this daughter. "You... you were just too spoiled!"
"Daddy, you once said that true love has nothing to do with age or background. Why are you so against us right now?"
"Thirza, Steve is taking you as a substitute for your mom!"
"No, he didn't! He doesn't like Mommy for a long time. He likes me, I can feel it!"
If Thirza couldn't even tell who Steve liked, then she was totally wasting time in loving him these years.
"No matter what you say, I won't agree with your anyway. From now on, you can no longer live in Steve's home."
Adam made a cruel sentence.
"Daddy, why are you so traditional and conservative? You have always respected my choices, why you were so opposed this time?"
"Thirza, you are too young and don't understand what is love, you were misled by wrong concept..."
"It's not like that! Daddy, six years ago, Steve rejected me. It's me who chased after him these years.
I threatened him and forbidden him to be with other women. He was forced by me all the time. He had no way to get rid of me, then suggested I go to Milan for six years.
If I remained loving him six years later, he would agree to be my boyfriend. Now it's the end of our appointment!
He had never contacted me over the years because he was afraid of disturbing my life. After six years, I am very clear that the man I loved is him.
daddy, I wouldn't talk back if you criticized me for not knowing love six years ago. But now, I dare to tell you that I love Steve!
Regardless of whether you and mom would agree or not, I will marry him because I am pregnant with his baby!"
Thirza did say that. Adam was so angry that he slapped Thirza on the face.
Tracey was scared and stopped Adam hurriedly. Although Thirza wasn't at home most of the time since she was little, she was the child that Tracey loved most.
"Adam, what are you doing? It was not her fault to fall in love with someone. Even though Steve is older, they are not related by blood, why can't they go together?"
Adam looked at Tracey and said, "How could you agree to such absurd thing?"
Tracey held his hand, "Adam, I know very well what kind of man Steve is. He is definitely not like what you said to use Thirza as a substitute for me.
If that's the case, why did he ask Thirza to go to Milan? During the six years, we all know what happened.
They never met each other. Every time we visited
Thirza was in Milan.
With time difference and distance, they were still loyal to each other. In the colorful foreign country, Thirza didn't lose her feeling for Steve nor fall in love with anyone else.
