Still Wanna Escape After Stealing My Heart? novel Chapter 1754

Tessa was so shocked that she took a few steps back and her lips instantly turned pale. "You...What did you say?"

Hana did not answer Tessa. She just looked calmly at Tessa. "You came to my wedding five days ago, right?"

"You...how did you know?" Tessa asked.

"It was my first wedding in my life, so of course, I had t o invite all the people who had helped me in the past. I don’t really have any families, so the people from the village back then are my family. A few of the representatives from the village came to the wedding that day. Many of them knew you."

Tessa was speechless.

"You have been to the village and made an inquiry, right?" asked Hana.

Tessa did not answer. That was because she did not know how she should answer. She did not expect that Hana would find out that she had gone to the village and inquired about the past that quickly!

Seeing that Tessa did not answer her, Hana just continued, "The whole village knew about it, so it's actually not a secret. You will know what happened in the past as long as you just ask a little. Do you know why I didn't tell you?"

Tessa looked at her mother with hostility in her gaze." Why? You don't wish for your naked pictures to be exposed! You don't want the photos of you being caught in bed with another man to be exposed!”

Hana raised her hand and violently slapped Tessa. After that, Hana said calmly, "It's rebellious of you to slap me! It’s beyond normal for me to slap you!

However, this is the first time I've slapped you since you were a baby! Since I have slapped you once. Both o f us are now even! From this moment on, we no longer have any relationship with each other!"

Tessa was speechless.

"However!" said Hana. "Since you've come to look for m e today! I will tell you everything truthfully! The reason I had never told you what kind of person your father is is that I didn’t want the image of a good father you had in your mind to be ruined. It was because I wanted to let you have as happy a childhood as possible and I didn't want you to have any trauma i n your childhood. I didn't want you to starve to death! Otherwise, why wouldn't I want to be at home to take care of my little girl? This way, my daughter would also have a closer relationship with me! However, if I hadn't gone to work and make money, then not only would you not get a good education, but you would even have the possibility of starving to death!

Hana continued. "I thought...I thought I deserved to have such a fate in this life. I gave birth to a daughter, but she is not close to me! I had already accepted this fact and I didn’t plan to have both of us acknowledge our relationship anymore! I just thought, so what if we don’t acknowledge each other for life? As long as I could watch you from afar, as long as I could save some properties for you, I will be contented enough. In fact, that was what I've been doing all these years in the past. Every single penny you spent and the store that your dad opened were all using my hard-earned money! I have always been saving money for you! At first, it was five thousand dollars a month. Later on, it was ten thousand dollars a month. Do you know how hard was it for me to save that money? I had to work four jobs a day! When I earned the most in the summer, I would work as a skinner and did piecework at the canning factory. To make more money, I started stocking up at midnight every day! I worked from midnight all the way until five in the evening the following day! When I got home, I didn’t even eat and just went straight to bed. I would sleep until midnight, then go stock up again! One summer, in more than seventy days, I could earn one thousand dollars every day! That was how hard I've worked for every penny of the millions of dollars I had saved for you! I had never even bought myself new clothes for so many years! That’s why my clothes were all tattered and torn when you saw me! Nevertheless, I have accepted it! I have resigned to my fate! As long as my daughter can have a happy future, then it’s all worth it for me!

Hana glared. "However, I have never expected that you would slap me in front of so many people. You slapped my face!"
