Chapter 306
Zayn smirked disdainfully. His handsome face was now filled with maliciousness. “Willow, you have a month to pay off the money. Otherwise, I make sure the whole world knows just how filthy you are.”
He turned away ruthlessly. Then, as if remembering something, he slowly turned back. He looked down the limping Aaron like he was looking at a despicable worm.
“And this cripple… Willow, you better control him. If he annoys me, I won’t hesitate to make him die again.” With those words, Zayn left without a trace of remorse and slammed the door of Willow’s apartment shut.
Willow’s face turned extremely ugly. Hearing others call Aaron a cripple didn’t bother her as much. But Zayn was Aaron’s biological father. How could he call their son a cripple?
A sharp pain engulfed her heart, causing her stomach, which hadn’t hurt in days, to convulse uncontrollably.
Seeing Aaron’s pale face, Willow forgot about her own pain and pulled him into a tight embrace. “Aaron…”
“Mom… Aaron’s voice trembled. “I know I’m a cripple, but it still hurts so much when he says it.”
“Aaron…” Willow wanted to comfort him, but at that moment, she couldn’t find the right words to ease his pain.
Being called a cripple by his biological father was a pain she couldn’t imagine. What could she do to ease his suffering?
“Mom, is he really my dad?” After a long time, Aaron’s voice, tinged with obvious trembling, echoed in the
air.
“No, he’s not my dad. I don’t have a dad. My dad died a long time ago. He died in my heart when I fell off
the cliff.”
She couldn’t even accompany him as he grew up. She wasn’t a good mother.
