113. Does It Hurt?
“How does it feel to be rejected by your own daughter? Does it hurt?” Susan’s voice was soft. However, her words stuck straight
into
Frank’s inner wounds.
“So much, but I know what I feel is not comparable to what they have felt all this time. I know,” Frank nodded with a twitching
chin.
Seeing how pathetic the CEO looked, Susan smiled wryly. Without a word, she stepped in and sat in one of the chairs near the
table.
“It’s good that you know. The suffering they experience will never be comparable to your suffering. How could it be?”
Susan looked up, scanning the luxurious interior of the room. “You live in such a nice place, while we have to rent a shabby
apartment. Only here Louis and Emily can have their own room, thanks to your generosity.”
Smiling sadly, Susan shifted her gaze towards the shelves filled with? displays. “They don’t even have nice toys like other kids.
So far, they have only played with cheap goods and books. Only here they cal enjoy the little luxuries.”
After a few seconds, Susan’s eyes fixated on the grapes beaut presented in the middle of the table. The curve of her lips
became more wrinkled.
“They even have to wait several months to be able to eat at a restaurant, unlike you who can always get whatever dishes you
want.
Raising an eyebrow, Susan turned back to the CEO.
“And what’s most striking, you live surrounded by lots of people, whereas Louis and Emily only have Kara and me. They have

But don’t dare to capice
they are afraid that their mother will be sad.”
Susan leaned her head forward and whispered, “You know what? Having a father who doesn’t want to acknowledge his children
is far more pathetic than having a dead father. So, I hope you can understand Emily’s rude attitude towards you.”
Frank silently clenched his jaw. Susan had rubbed salt over his wound. However, he couldn’t do anything. His destiny was to just
accept the pain. He himself had dug a hole and left it gaping.
“Mrs. Martin, is there anything I can do to wash away my sins?” he asked hoarsely, almost inaudible. He still didn’t have the
strength to hold his head up.
“Why are you asking me? I wasn’t the one who told you to make that decision, Susan said indifferently.
Frank fell silent for a moment. After he dared to meet Susan’s gaze, he muttered, “You are the closest person to Kara and the
children. I think you know the right way to apologize to them.”
Susan laughed faintly. “What makes you think I would tell you? You are the one who has created the suffering of my daughter
and grandchildren.”
Blinking, Frank brought his gaze down. “I just want to keep as until I find the answer.
The corners of Susan’s lips suddenly turned down. She didn’t the man to give such an honest response.
“What makes you like my daughter?”

Frank returned the sharp gaze with an innocent look. “I also don’t know. Suddenly, my heart and mind were full with your
daughter.
While Susan was pensive, Frank’s gaze began to droop. He continued

her side. I like the feeling of pride every time I succeed in protecting her. I also like the feeling of satisfaction every time I succeed
in giving my best. And if I fail to make her happy, her sadness makes me uneasy.”
Suddenly, Frank’s eyes softened. His lips started to curve. “Your daughter has a very beautiful smile and heart, Madam. Every
time she’s sad, I feel restless and want to immediately refresh her. Maybe that’s the reason I like Kara. My heart regards her as a
challenge that I want to conquer every moment.”
Susan was suddenly sucked into the past. That answer was completely different from Finnic’s answer. “Don’t you like Kara
because you complement each other’s weaknesses or her amazing figure?”
Frank pursed his lips and tilted his head. After a short reflection, he stated, “Does love ever look at weaknesses and strengths?
For me, love is a side of human beings that cannot be touched by logic. It can only accept and reject, without needing to
consider.”
Silence froze the air again. Frank was busy assessing his answer, while Susan was busy assessing his sincerity.
“Do you think Louis and Emily have been suffering all this time
Frank’s daydream was shattered. He raised an eyebrow, whis What do you mean?”

Susan suddenly got up from the chair and raised the corners of lips. “You should know, Frank. Louis and Emily’s life is much sim
than your wealthy life. There is one thing that makes them win ov you.”
Frank’s brow furrowed deeply. “What is it?”
“All their lives, they always have Kara’s love, but you don’t. They’re

with Kara, and I think... that one win means a lot.”
After patting Frank’s arm, Susan walked out. The man could only blink, digesting the meaning. Did Susan give him any hint,
guidance, or comfort? Those sentences were too deep.
Meanwhile, a panting toddler entered his room. Running without moving his arm was the hardest thing he had ever done.
“Uh, I should have started running away when Grandma got up from the chair,” he sighed, patting his heart.
While catching his breath, Louis played back what he had recorded in his memory. However, before he could come to a
conclusion, the sound of heels caught his attention. When he peeked, he gasped.
“What else does that fierce woman want here?”
Bravely, Louis stretched out one arm in front of Isabel. His cheeks were puffed out, his eyes looked sunken.
“Stop! You are not allowed to pass!”
Receiving that surprising welcome, Isabela blinked. She almost laughed lightly. The boy was not even taller than her waist, but d
to challenge her?
However, remembering the task given by Rowan, she quickly smi Hello, Little Puppy. Good morning! How are you today?”
Louis lowered his hands. However, his furrowed brows were still intact. “You called me a dog?”

Isabel gasped. “No, it’s not what you think. Puppies are affectionate calls. No offense. I didn’t mean to insult you. On the
contrary...
She sweetened her smile. “I came here to apologize to you and your sister. I realize that my arrival yesterday has brought big

you. My mum UU 11U1911.
Louis narrowed his eyes. Isabela’s movements were suspicious to him. “What are you apologizing for? Do you really care about
us? Wouldn’t you be happy if we left this house?”
Isabela’s eyes widened. She was secretly amazed by the toddler’s intelligence. “I was too shocked yesterday. Do you know?
When someone receives information that is too difficult to believe, he may lose his senses. You know what that means, right?”
“Of course I know,” Louis grumbled faintly.
“Then can you forgive me? I didn’t think much about it yesterday.”
Puffing out his cheeks again, Louis shook his head. “You already called us trash. It cannot be forgiven easily.”
