"Daughter, how did you come back?"
When Mia Stewart saw Emily Allen, tears streamed more fiercely down her face. She stepped forward, trying to grab Emily's hand, but Emily dodged her outright.
Mia's hand awkwardly froze mid-air, but the next second, she wiped the tears off her face.
"Daughter, I know your career is going quite well right now, so how about I move in and live with you?"
She really didn't want to stay by Ethan Allen's side anymore.
For Mia, Emily was now her only hope.
However, Emily outright ignored Mia's words and walked straight up to Ethan Allen. She intended to call him 'Dad,' but as she got close, the foul smell of alcohol overwhelmed her, making her stomach churn.
She frowned deeply and said, "I met with Charlotte Thompson today."
Ethan, who had been drinking from a bottle, finally reacted. It had been a long time since he had groomed his hair and beard, which now almost covered his eyes.
He suddenly looked up sharply at Emily.
