Chapter <b>611 </b>
Mnie frowned upon hearing Howard’s demanding tone<b>. </b>It did not matter if- Eugene was her boyfriend <b>or </b>not. Howard <b>had </b><b>no </b>right to tell her what to do.
The attitude of him trying to control her as her parent and mentioning he was her father annoyed her. Did he ever carry out his responsibility as her father?
Mnie suppressed the difort she was feeling and said coldly, “I have the freedom to date anyone I want.”
Howard seemed displeased, but he tried to use a gentler approach when talking to Mnie. “I’m sorry, Mel. My attitude was bad just now. I shouldn’t have spoken to you like that, but I’m just concerned.”
((
Then, he nced at Eugene in disdain before patiently persuading Mnie, Mel, you have to trust me. I’ll never be wrong. This man is poor, and dating him will do you no good.
“I don’t want you to suffer in the future. Why don’t I introduce the son of one of my business partners who’s the same age as you? I’ll invite him for lunch. You and him can get to know each other.”
Howard took out his phone without even caring about Mnie’s opinion.
Mnie took a deep breath and looked at Howard as she snapped, “I have work to deal with. Goodbye.”
“Mel…” Howard stopped her. He put on a stern and helpless expression. He sighed. “Why don’t you resign and work in mypany? Your job will be easier there.‘
Mnie looked at Howard sarcastically.
She said, “From the moment you met me, you’ve been addressing yourself as my father. But have you ever missed me all these years?
“Have you ever thought of us, who you dumped in Jepton?
“You said you care about me, but have you forgotten about how I couldn’t reach you in the summer of my middle school year?
“If you cared about me<b>, </b>you wouldn’t be ignoring the fact that I’m in the hospital because I might be ill. You didn’t even care to ask what job was before asking me to resign.”
Mnie said those words calmly but <b>clearly</b><b>. </b>Howard’s expression changed.
He looked at Mnie<b>. </b>“Are you ming me for not visiting <b>you </b>all these years?”
Mnie no longer felt anything toward this man. She said, “It’s all in the past.” Howard pointed at Mnie with disappointment and sadness. “Mel, how could you say this to me? I missed you every day! I couldn’t go back to Jepton! How could you hate me so much?”
Howard dragged his voice, yet Mnie had already ignored him and left.
She feared losing control of her emotions if she kept talking to Howard.
How could she not hate him?
She had lost her father for years. Suddenly, he appeared and told her he loved her. Who would believe that?
After they left the hospital, Mnie took a deep breath of the fresh air and felt better.
She looked at Eugene beside her and said, “Thank you.”
She was thanking Eugene because he spoke up for her. He said the words she had been wanting to say.
Eugene said casually, “I was in a bad mood.”
Mnie asked, “Are we going back to the hotel now?”
“Yes,” Eugene answered. He did not hide his emotions.
Mnie understood why. Eugene had always been clean and cared about his image.
It might be the first time in his life he was in such a pathetic state. It was no wonder he was a little irritated.
Mnie hailed a taxi and texted Lee, telling him she was heading back to the hotel with Eugene.
