It was Nancy.
Seeing Nancy, Morgan’s face turned gloomy. “Why are you here?”
“I…”
H
“I’ll deal with it.”
Tonight, he had no patience. Before Nancy finished speaking, Morgan withdrew his hand and strode away.
“It’s good you’re back; otherwise, I would have gone crazy because of your Fredrick,” Nancy said in a place with no one around.
In a secluded place, Erica displayed her attire for the day with a sense of speechlessness.
Fredrick forced her to wear this outfit.
She said that she wanted to use this innocent image to depict the desire for protection of all the young men present and find a man who genuinely wanted to protect Erica.
Of course, Lucas knew very well about his woman’s many tricks. He smiled helplessly, “Where is she and Lily?”
“They should be coming soon.”
Just as Erica finished speaking, Fredrick and Lily appeared at the end of the corridor.
Seeing Lucas, Lily’s eyes lit up with surprise and joy.
“Call him Uncle Lucas,” Erica quickly said.
Lily eagerly stepped forward and held Lucas‘ hand, “Daddy, hello!”
Erica: “…”
Perhaps Lucas didn’t expect that Lily would call him daddy, so he stood still in shock.
Only Fredrick covered his mouth, revealing a satisfied smile, “Sure, calling him dad is fine too.”
Currently, Fredrick was Lily’s godmother, and Lucas was her godfather.
Fredrick’s words were not wrong, and Lily also felt that it was not wrong to call him that.
“Daddy, I want to play over there!” She pointed to the bright light ahead.
Lucas was also very fond of Lily, he bent down and picked her up, “Sure, let’s go over there to play.”
Erica:
Seeing Lily successfully led away by Fredrick and getting lost in the crowd, Erica felt a headache.
She intended to follow, but when she turned back, she saw Morgan standing next to her.
At this moment, Morgan’s face was serious and stern, his gaze piercing into Erica’s eyes, “Is this how you educate your children? Calling every man you meet ‘dad‘?”
He remembered clearly that last time Lily called Thomas and referred to him as ‘dad.‘
He had no intention of following Erica to see how she would enjoy herself with other men.
CAL
In fact, he was just handling the wound on his hand when he unintentionally witnessed this scene.
“Your misunderstanding.” Though her tone wasn’t good, Erica instinctively explained, “Lily is just…”
This harsh conversation was immediately interrupted.
“You may indulge in depravity as much as you like, but do not drag the child into it.”
Erica suddenly woke up.
He had never trusted her, what’s the use of explaining so much?
She was really used to being a “slave” in the West family.
A mocking smile appeared on her face, “Don’t you know why Lily wants to call everyone ‘dad“?”
“Because you never allowed her to call you ‘dad‘. She is just like any other child, she wants to have her own father, so she considers any man who treats her well as her father.”
“What nonsense are you talking about? Have I ever not allowed her to call me dad!”
Creating such meaningless stories, Morgan even more contemptuously looked down on Erica.
Erica’s smile became desolate, “Have you forgotten? When Lily ran up to call you dad, what did you say?”
Due to a blood infection after birth, Lily’s development was slower than other children. It wasn’t until she was over two years old that she started speaking.
When she clearly called him “dad,” Erica knew how happy she was, so she hugged Lily and went to find Morgan.
However, Lily didn’t receive any praise or encouragement when she called him “dad.”
On the contrary.
He showed extreme hatred towards Lily and told her, “Go away!”
Perhaps this memory was too deep, and since then, Lily became fearful and never dared to call him dad again whenever she met Morgan.
That was all in the past, but looking back now, Erica still couldn’t help feeling guilty towards Lily, and it saddened her.
After Erica mentioned this story, Morgan vaguely remembered that there seemed to be such a broken piece.
At that time, the only thing he hated was Erica, and he didn’t pay attention to what Lily said.
“It’s not good for the child to call others dad, but Morgan, please reconsider your thoughts. Since Lily is not allowed to call you, don’t stop her from calling others!”
Suppressing her sorrow, she spoke seriously.
Having said what she wanted to say, she didn’t want to delay for another second and chased after the direction Fredrick had left.
Behind, Morgan’s palms were covered in blood, but he didn’t feel any pain..
As if his heart had turned to stone.
Numb.
He couldn’t breathe.
Fredrick played with Lily under the lights for a while, then Lucas pulled him away to another area to continue the “family training.”
Ignoring the live stream footage where Fredrick always appeared with an imposing aura and exclaimed, “Buy it, follow me!” and attracted many fans

to purchase products, in front of Lucas, she looked like a well–behaved, soft kitten.
Finally, Erica didn’t need to participate in Fredrick’s activities anymore. She lightly shook her head and let out a sigh of relief.
She didn’t care for these business gatherings, and once the two left, she also didn’t want to stay any longer. She bent down, held Lily in her arms, and
walked outside.
Lily had been happily playing with Fredrick before they arrived, but now her eyes were drooping with sleepiness. She could only take a few steps before leaning against Erica’s shoulder and falling fast asleep.
Erica lovingly patted her daughter’s head and quickly walked to the parking lot.
However, not far from there, she saw Morgan standing on the side of the road.
Perhaps he was also about to leave.
Pretending not to notice, she turned her head in the opposite direction.
But Morgan walked past, “I’ll take the two of you home.”
