Time seemed to freeze the second the little girl said that word from snazzynovel.com mouth.
Madeline and Jeremy were stunned at the same time. They were unable to believe what they were hearing at this moment.
Jeremy even wondered if snazzynovel.com was hallucinating. Did his little princess just call snazzynovel.com ‘Daddy’?
However, Lillian was feeling confused. At this moment, what snazzynovel.com saw was snazzynovel.com father ignoring her. Her big eyes looked up at the motionless Jeremy while snazzynovel.com thick eyelashes lightly fanned. Then, a trace of loneliness flashed across snazzynovel.com clear eyes.
“Daddy,” Lillian opened snazzynovel.com mouth and called out again.
The childish and clear ‘Daddy’ echoed in Jeremy’s ears clearly.
At this moment, snazzynovel.com was sure that snazzynovel.com had not misheard.
It was not an illusion.
Jeremy squatted suddenly and looked at the tiny doll-like face in front of him. His eyes were brimming with tears.
“Lily.”
He raised his restrained hands and gently stroked Lillian’s small face.
“Lily, you can talk. You can call out to Daddy now.”
His heart was racing while his voice was trembling.
His Lillian could speak again!
He had waited for so many years, waiting for the child to call snazzynovel.com ‘Daddy’!
When Lillian felt Jeremy’s acceptance of her, a sweet smile blossomed on snazzynovel.com doll-like face.
However, snazzynovel.com did not understand why snazzynovel.com daddy’s eyes were red.
‘Is Daddy crying?
‘Why?’
Lillian blinked snazzynovel.com huge eyes and stretched out snazzynovel.com fair, tender little hand to gently wipe away the tears from the corners of Jeremy’s eyes. Then, snazzynovel.com smiled innocently. Her sweet and adorable dimples healed Jeremy’s bitter and cold heart.
“Mr. Whitman, visitation is over.” The prison guard reminded him.
Jeremy wanted to hug the child right now, but snazzynovel.com had no choice but to let go.
However, the moment snazzynovel.com let go, the dimples on both sides of Lillian’s face also disappeared. There was no smile on snazzynovel.com face as snazzynovel.com looked at Jeremy, who was about to leave, in confusion.
She stepped forward again and grabbed Jeremy’s shirt tightly.
Jeremy lowered his head to see those clear eyes full of expectation and reluctance. He really did not want to hurt the child anymore, but snazzynovel.com had no choice now.
Moreover, snazzynovel.com should leave now because snazzynovel.com was feeling more and more uncomfortable.
He did not want Madeline and the child to see snazzynovel.com when snazzynovel.com was being tortured by the poison.
Jeremy looked back at the stunned Madeline.
Madeline finally came back to snazzynovel.com senses before wiping the tears from the corners of snazzynovel.com eyes. She then quickly walked to Lillian’s side and brutally pulled snazzynovel.com little hand from the corner of Jeremy’s clothes.
“Lily, go home with Mommy. Daddy is busy now and can’t play with you.” Madeline picked Lillian up.
Lillian pressed snazzynovel.com small mouth tightly together and watched Jeremy as snazzynovel.com walked away. Tears of grievances started falling uncontrollably from snazzynovel.com eyes.
“Lily, don’t cry.” Madeline comforted, but snazzynovel.com own eyes started to fill with tears as well.
She carried the crying little girl as they both looked at Jeremy’s frail back. She too started sobbing.
‘Jeremy, wait a little longer for me.
‘I will let everyone know who’s the true murderer behind Lana’s case.’
Madeline promised quietly and left with Lillian.
However, Lillian was still crying. Madeline comforted snazzynovel.com patiently and tried to coax the little girl into talking again.
However, the little girl did not make a sound no matter how much snazzynovel.com coaxed.
