Samuel asked, “Why would Naomi get into a car accident? That’s because you left her on the highway for Emily!
“Where were you when she was sick and suffering? Have you ever recalled that she was your wife when you left her alone time and again?”
Yohan felt bitterness in his mouth. He wanted to refute, yet everything Samuel had said was true. It was as if someone was grabbing him by the neck–he couldn’t speak, and his mind went blank.
When I heard from my assistant that Yohan had stormed into the company looking for Samuel, I immediately called the security guards and headed to the top–floor office.
“What are you doing, Yohan?” As soon as we exited the elevator, I saw Yohan grabbing Samuel by his collar, enraged.
The security guards went ahead to stop Yohan, while I stood before Samuel.
The swollen bruise near his mouth stood out on his pale face. He was tearing up, looking pitiful. My heart ached as I caressed his
cheek
“Is this how you were raised?” I looked at Yohan calmly.
He staggered slightly when he saw the hatred I had for him in my gaze.
gaze. “I got hurt too,
Naomi-
I averted my gaze and brought Samuel away. “Escort him out, security. Don’t let unrelated people into the company again.”
Yohan made Julian come for me again. Perhaps he was trying to use my motherly love for Julian to keep me around, but I was no
longer the same person I was.
“Stop coming to find me, boy. Your father and I have already divorced–I am no longer your mother,” I said.
Julian immediately turned anxious when he heard how I addressed him. “I want to eat your dark cuisines, Mommy. I want you to tell me bedtime stories and hug me to sleep.”
“Anyone can do this, Julian. You’re just not used to having me away from you.” I turned to leave, but he tugged at the hem of my
skirt
Julian choked, “No, Mommy. I’m really sorry now. What happened that day was just a prank–I don’t like Ms. Emily at all I
promise this won’t happen again!
