Beyond the Divorce novel Chapter 1292

"We shall have a very happy family. We'll be inseparable as we play, live, and grow together! However, being a big sister comes with responsibilities. Do you understand what responsibility means?"

She said in her innocent voice, "Yes, the teacher says, respecting the elderly and loving the young is responsibility!"

"Oh! My good daughter is so smart, she knows so much!" I praised her, "You are right, that's responsibility! So Ava has the responsibility to take care of her little brothers and sisters. Mommy will always love you all!"

"Will Daddy still love me?" She asked earnestly.

I knew she was referring to Atlas when she said "Daddy.”

"Of course, Daddy loves Ava the most! No matter how many little brothers and sisters there are in the future, Daddy will always love Ava!"

"Why?" She asked.

"Because you came into this world first! Daddy has loved you for a long time, they came later! Also, Ava has a Daddy from the Murphy family! Everyone loves you!"

I patiently explained it to her. I couldn't let her have this knot in her heart.

This little kid was highly intelligent. I saw that she had a lot on her mind, but she also had a very malleable mind. One could swiftly get her to change her mind as long as her reasons were provided.

"Will my dad make a lot of money and come back?" She suddenly asked me.

I thought for a moment and said, "He will! But whether he makes a lot of money or not, he is still your dad! Even though he made mistakes in the past, you forgave him. So even if he doesn't have money in the future, you shouldn't dislike him! Can you do it?"

She stared at my face and said, "Yes, I can! Even if Dad has no money, Ava still loves Dad, but as long as he doesn't hit Mom!"

I knew that in her little heart, there was already a shadow of when Matthew used to hit me.
