CHAPTER 201

"Daddy's here, baby... it took quite some time, right?" He asked with a nervous tone, heart clamping down his throat as he tried not to cry in front of his daughter who was surprised to see him in front of her.

Her shocked face turns into an expression where she longs for his presence, then suddenly distorted into a cold gaze, trying to suspend herself not to give in to what she wants at this point.

"Why are you here?" She asked which made Phileo's world stop turning, making him unable to move from his post. The shock was evident in Hon's face as he didn't expect Epione to speak coldly in front of him.

It's as if his daughter changed the moment he left her in the arms of these strangers.

"Baby... let me explain... please?" Phileo begged, wanting to approach her as he opened his arms widely to welcome her in his arms but Epione moved further, making his heart clench more tightly that it nearly made him die of a heart attack.
