Molly Wellington's hand was hitting Dylan Wellington, but her little face was buried deeply in Ian Moore's embrace, hugging her father, crying with tearful eyes.
Breaking up with other women, Mr. Wellington was always clean and ruthless.
Yet that ruthlessness couldn't be used on his little princess at home.
Just after his outburst, Dylan Wellington regretted it. After all, she was his cherished little princess, who he couldn't even bear to scold, let alone let her cry.
Dylan Wellington held the little lad and comforted her for a long time, until Molly Wellington gradually stopped crying, her chest heaving with sobs.
"Da... Daddy... I... I... *sob*... I don't want... a stepmother..."
"Molly wants... wants Daddy... and... and mother..."
"Alright, no stepmother. Our Molly won't have a stepmother. Daddy promises you, absolutely not." He never planned on getting married, Dylan Wellington is a genuine celibate.
Even Molly's appearance was an accident.
