Ch. The Affair 46 The Affair 46

Chapter 46 

It was Cathy. 

Seeing Cathy, Harvey’s face turned gloomy. “Why are you here?” 

** 

“Til deal with it.” 

Tonight, he had no patience, Before Cathy finished speaking, Harvey withdrew his hand and strode away. 

In a secluded place, I displayed my attire for the day with a sense of speechlessness. 

Fredrica forced me to wear this outfit. 

She said that she wanted to use this innocent image to depict the desire for protection of all the young men present and find a man who genuinely wanted to protect me. 

Of course, Lucas knew very well about his woman’s many tricks. He smiled helplessly, “Where is she and Iris?” 

“They should be coming soon.” 

Just as I finished speaking, Fredrica and Iris appeared at the end of the corridor. 

Seeing Lucas, Iris’s eyes lit up with surprise and joy. 

“Call him Uncle Lucas,” I quickly said. 

Iris eagerly stepped forward and held Lucas‘ hand, “Daddy, hello!” 

I: “…” 

Perhaps Lucas didn’t expect that Iris would call him daddy, so he stood still in shock. 

Only Fredrica covered her mouth, revealing a satisfied smile, “Sure, calling him dad is fine too.” 

Currently, Fredrica was Iris’s godmother, and Lucas was her godfather. 

Fredrica’s words were not wrong, and Iris also felt that it was not wrong to call him that. 

“Daddy, I want to play over there!” She pointed to the bright light ahead. 

Lucas was also very fond of Iris, he bent down and picked her up, “Sure, let’s go over there to play.” 

I: “…” 

Seeing Iris successfully led away by Fredrica and getting lost in the crowd, I felt a headache. 

I intended to follow, but when I turned back, I saw Harvey standing next to me. 

At this moment, Harvey’s face was serious and stern, his gaze piercing into my eyes, “Is this how you educate your children? Calling every man you meet ‘dad“?” 

He remembered clearly that last time Iris called Thomas and referred to him as ‘dad.‘ 

He had no intention of following me to see how I would enjoy myself with other men. 

In fact, he was just handling the wound on his hand when he unintentionally witnessed this scene.

“Your misunderstanding.” Though my tone wasn’t good, I instinctively explained, “Iris is just…” 

This harsh conversation was immediately interrupted. 

“You may indulge in depravity as much as you like, but do not drag the child into it.” 

I suddenly woke up. 

He had never trusted me, what’s the use of explaining so much? 

I was really used to being a “slave” in the Blanchel family. 

A mocking smile appeared on my face, “Don’t you know why Iris wants to call everyone ‘dad“?” 

“Because you never allowed her to call you ‘dad‘. She is just like any other child. She wants to have her own father, so she considers any man who treats her well as her father.” 

“What nonsense are you talking about? Have I ever not allowed her to call me dad!” 

Creating such meaningless stories, Harvey even more contemptuously looked down on me. 

My smile became desolate, “Have you forgotten? When Iris ran up to call you dad, what did you say?” 

Due to a blood infection after birth, Iris’s development was slower than other children. It wasn’t until she was over two years old that she started speaking. 

When she clearly called I him “dad,” I knew how happy she was, so I hugged Iris and went to find Harvey. 

However, Iris didn’t receive any praise or encouragement when she called him “dad.” 

On the contrary. 

T 

He showed extreme hatred towards Iris and told her, “Go away!” 

Perhaps this memory was too deep, and since then, Iris became fearful and never dared to call him dad again whenever she met Harvey. 

Until that time when she was bullied in kindergarten and was so frightened that she called out “Dad” to Harvey. 

That was all in the past, but looking back now, I still couldn’t help feeling guilty towards Iris, and it saddened me. 

After I mentioned this story, Harvey vaguely remembered that there seemed to be such a broken piece. 

At that time, the only thing he hated was me, and he didn’t pay attention to what Iris said. 

“It’s not good for the child to call others dad, but Harvey, please reconsider your thoughts. Since Iris is not allowed to call you, don’t stop her from calling others!” 

Suppressing my sorrow, I spoke seriously. 

Having said what I wanted to say, I didn’t want to delay for another second and chased after the direction Fredrica had left. 

Behind, Harvey’s palms were covered in blood, but he didn’t feel any pain. 

As if his heart had turned to stone. 

Numb. 

He couldn’t breathe. 

Fredrica played with Iris under the lights for a while, then Lucas pulled him away to another area to continue the “family training.“” 

Ignoring the live stream footage where Fredrica always appeared with an imposing aura and exclaimed, “Buy it, follow me!” and attracted many fans

to purchase products, in front of Lucas, she looked like a well behaved, soft kitten. 

Finally, I didn’t need to participate in Fredrica’s activities anymore. I lightly shook my head and let out a sigh of relief. 

I didn’t care about these business gatherings, and once the two left, I also didn’t want to stay any longer. I bent down, held Iris in my arms, and walked outside, 

Iris had been happily playing with Fredrica before they arrived, but now her eyes were drooping with sleepiness. She could only take a few steps before leaning against my shoulder and falling fast asleep. 

I lovingly patted my daughter’s head and quickly walked to the parking lot. 

However, not far from there, I saw Harvey standing on the side of the road. 

Perhaps he was also about to leave. 

Pretending not to notice, I turned my head in the opposite direction. 

But Harvey walked past, “I’ll take the two of you home.”
