Chapter 40 Never Thought about Acknowledging Her
Donovan saw it and his face grew even darker. "What do you have to say to her? In the future, it's best if you pretend not to know each other and have no contact with her."
Since that woman didn't plan to recognize her daughter herself, he would just do as she wished!
Finley was scared by his father's tone and hesitated for a few seconds before reluctantly pouting and writing on the book: Why?
Without waiting for Donovan's answer, she quickly wrote, "I really like Auntie. Auntie is very nice and gentle to me. I want to be with her!"
The little girl's straightforward affection made Donovan feel sorry for her, but they had to face reality. He said expressionlessly, "Because she already has her own children, she doesn't need another child."
After hearing this, Finley looked confused.
She knew Riley had her own children, but the beautiful aunt was still very good to her.
However, her dad seemed to dislike the aunt.
Finley couldn't help but feel disappointed.
Seeing the little girl quiet down, Donovan instructed his assistant to start the car and leave the Benedict family estate.
On the way, someone tugged on his clothes twice.
Donovan frowned and looked over.
"Where is my mommy?"
Finley looked at him somewhat aggrieved, her big eyes filled with confusion.
The beautiful aunt was the mommy of Landon and Winston so she couldn't get close to the beautiful aunt.
Then where was her mommy?
These words Finley wrote pierced Donovan's eyes, and he almost awkwardly looked away, not knowing how to answer for a moment.
Finley was asking him where her mommy was.
He did know the answer.
However, how could he tell her the cruel truth?
That woman already had a new family and had never considered recognizing her own daughter, even though she was right in front of her.
The more he thought about it, the more serious his face grew, and he didn't speak for a long time.
He kept silent, and Finley kept looking at him seriously.
After a while, Donovan gritted his teeth and said in annoyance, "I don't know. I don't know where she is, and you don't need to ask this question again! Having me as your dad is enough, you don't need a mommy!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Finley stared at her dad for a few seconds before slowly putting away her book and lowering her head without saying a word.
They remained silent until they returned home.
The Benedict family mansion.
After Donovan left, Riley's mood was clearly off.
Dalton noticed it, but didn't point it out. He took her downstairs and made tea while trying to find some topics to talk about.
The atmosphere between the two seemed fine.
After being kicked out, Mia went back to her room. Now she wanted to see how the situation was.
Seeing her brother sitting on the couch with Riley, Mia snorted.
From the beginning, she didn't believe this woman had any abilities.
And now she still thought in the same way. Riley noticed her disdainful attitude but wasn't in the mood to confront her. She just pretended Mia didn't exist.
As the hour approached, Riley stopped the conversation first, "It's time to take off the treatment equipment."
After speaking, she got up and walked upstairs.
Dalton hurriedly followed.
On the side, Mia also got up curiously and followed.
She didn't believe this woman, but she still cared about her grandfather's condition.
And she also wanted to see if this woman was really as capable as she claimed to be!
