Scrambling to Be the Father of His Ex-Wife's Kid novel Chapter 797

"When I first saw her, I knew it before others could say that we looked alike. After I got home, I looked into the mirror for a very long time and wondered if my mother looked like her? I used to picture what my mother looked like many times, and it was when I met her that the image I had of my mother materialized," I started slowly.

Tyler thought of our mother. "Mother once said to you that you're like a dandelion. You were accidentally blown away when your mother was holding you in her arms, and you drifted to her with the wind.”

"Yeah." When I thought of the mother who raised me, a smile emerged on my face. “She never heard anyone say that I was abandoned, that's why I was able to grow up as a happy child."

Although Munchkin had no idea what we were talking about, he understood the meaning of the individual words. He climbed to my lap and cupped my face, saying softly, "Don't be unhappy, Mommy. I'm here for you. Theo’s here for you. You have so many family members. You’ll only get happier and happier."

I smiled slightly, the bitterness in my heart vanishing.

I looked at Tyler, and the smile on my face gradually disappeared. "I have never resented her for

abandoning me. When I learned that Cindy was her long-lost daughter, I was envious of her. I saw how much she loved Cindy and thought how nice it would b e if I had a mother who loved me that much too."

After a pause, a bitter smile appeared on my face." How enviable it is that a mother can do whatever it takes to treat her daughter kindly. Only, the person she hurt was me."

Tyler looked at me with a pained expression. "Wandy, you can't live in the past all the time."

How could I not know that humans should not always live in the past? Even so, the pain inflicted on me was true.

Therefore, the most I could do was not resent her.

The atmosphere became somewhat silent. I did not want to talk about Petra anymore and changed the subject. "Tyler, why don’t I see you treating Susan like that? She resembles the old me too much. That’s why I feel sorry for her.

"Like Susan, when I married Theo back then, I thought I was extremely blessed. Hence, I dared not ask for too much. At night whenever there was a thunderstorm, h e would hear it and become worried that Cindy would be afraid, so he'd drive several hours to keep her company. You have no idea how envious I was. I was afraid of thunder and lightning too, but I dared not make excessive demands by asking him to abandon Cindy and keep me company. I could only curl up and survive those nights of lightning and thunder alone."
