Chapter 1068: There Is Only One Dad
Thomas pleaded bitterly with Anne, knowing that Anne was soft-hearted. So he said with tears in his eyes: "I'm sorry, Annie, I didn't know it would be like this, I'm already like this, I have nothing, I've lost everything, I've lost you, I've lost Claire, I've also gone home, and my job and money, let me go." β
Anne glared at him fiercely and said indignantly, "Then you can take your own child and deal with the devil?" Do you want to kill Claire? You're her father, damn it, you bastardβ" Anne was really angry, too, and slapped Thomas hard.
"Yes, it's my fault, I'm damned. But...... She promised not to hurt Claire, she promised, so I took Claire over, and you see, Claire is okay now, right? She's fine, I didn't hurt her, I'm her father, aren't I? Thomas hurriedly proved his innocence, "I can swear to God, really, I didn't think about hurting Claire, never, she's my baby......"
Anne looked at Thomas's tragic situation, and finally relented, she looked at Zhen Fan with some help, her eyes were soft, which made people feel a little distressed, she couldn't imagine the father of such a bastard's child.
"Why don't you listen to Claire's opinion*?" Zhen Fan looked at Annie, he decided to cherish Annie's own choice, but he couldn't ignore Claire's feelings, after all, she was a direct victim and Thomas's daughter, so he looked at Claire who was standing aside with her mouth closed.
"Claire!" Angie turned her gaze to Claire, a little apologetic because of an important decision. She wasn't even as decisive as Claire, and her personality was still too suddenly weak.
Claire looked at Zhen Fan. Anne again, then Thomas again. Then he said in a very light voice, "Daddy - I just want to ask one last question, what was in mind when you handed me over to the witch?" Is it my safety or my own? β
"Of course it's yours, Claire, you're my baby, how could I be willing to let you take the risk? No, I won't, I'm your dad, I remember that. You are my daughter! Thomas replied immediately, without even thinking about it, and then looked at her, "Have you promised to forgive Daddy?" Honey, I'm really...... I don't have to put you in danger, she thought I promised me, I can swear to God. β
"Do you believe him?" This is Zhen Fan asking Annie softly, "Do you believe he thinks like this?" β
Anne was stunned and hesitated. Then he shook his head lightly and said, "He broke my heart and made me lose trust a long time ago, no, I don't believe his words." Anne said to Zhen Fan. I'm sorry, Zhen, I'm ......."
"I understand!" Zhen Fan nodded at her. Then he looked at Claire, "So...... What about you? Claire. Your attitude is important, then...... Do you believe what he says? β
Claire closed her mouth. seemed to be thinking, but his eyes were staring at Thomas, who looked at Claire eagerly and expectantly, and kept muttering in his mouth: "Believe Dad, what I said is true, God testifies, what I say is true, Claire...... For God's sake, trust me! β
"Do you still have faith? Your faith has been betrayed to the devil! Zhen Fan sneered and couldn't help but sneer, "Anne won't believe you, and I don't think Claire will believe you either." Claire, sue him, you don't believe him anymore, he doesn't deserve your trust, he's an irrational devil! β
Claire closed her mouth slightly, then bit her lower lip with her upper lip, looked at Thomas again, then at Anne and Zhen Fan and said, "Do you support me for any decision I make?" Mom? And also...... Father! She called Zhen Fan's father, which made Thomas feel a little bad.
"Yes, I support your decision!" Anne nodded slightly, "You have to make up your own mind, Claire, you're a brave boy, you know what to do, right?" I believe that if you ask for your opinion, that is, if you want to make your own ideas, we will support it. β
"Really? Father! Claire asked Zhen Fan.
"Yes, we've got your back, as long as you make a decision!" Zhen Fan looked at Claire, and he also felt that Claire's mind was slowly growing, and after some things, Claire's heart could no longer be described as a child. She's slowly maturing. At the very least, she's going to middle school, which is a sign of her maturity. That is to say, both mentally and physically, she is maturing, and she is more precocious than the average child. She and Maria are simply different.
Claire seemed to have some kind of guarantee, and then looked at Thomas who was looking at her expectantly and said, "Dad, I don't have any problems anymore, and...... This will also be the last time I will call you Daddy. I- forgive you, you can get out of here. β
Claire's voice fell, making Thomas, who originally thought Claire would take revenge on him, was ecstatic, and quickly nodded and said: "It's really my good daughter, I know that you won't do anything to Dad, I know that you can understand Dad, God...... I...... Really, I just want her to change my fate, no, no, just give me back my old good, that's what I thought. β
"Really?" Zhen Fan frowned suddenly, "Then why did he want you to kidnap Claire?" β
"Because the jade pendant on Claire's body is the jade pendant!" Thomas pointed to Claire's jade pendant and said, "This is it, she's interested in this, and ...... I'd like to take it and study it! I'm sorry, it's time for me to go, goodbye......" He ran away with a roll and crawled, and after a while, he heard the sound of a car starting.
"He drove away in a car!" Anne looked over there and said, "I'm sorry, Zhen, I didn't know Claire would make such a decision, he hurt Claire so much, I know you want to punish him, but...... I know I'm soft-hearted, and Claire is soft-hearted......"
Zhen Fan smiled, then walked to Claire's side and touched her head, at this time Zhen Fan felt in a trance that Claire had really grown up, with a girl-like charm, although she was very young, but she was growing up after all.
"I knew Claire would say that, so I let her decide." Zhen Fan looked at Claire and smiled, "I already knew that you wanted your father to go, after all, he is your father, you can't bear it, but it's decisive enough." You are a good-hearted girl, and a very decisive girl! β
Yes, Claire is kind-hearted and has long wanted to let Thomas go, and he has no intention of making trouble with Thomas at all, but he will clearly tell Thomas that his father-daughter relationship is over, this is the last time he will call him dad, and it shows her courage and determination.
From this, it can be seen that Claire is indeed a person who does great things in the future. Zhen Fan appreciates this very much, not only will he not blame her, but he will appreciate her very much. But Annie is still a bad person, even Thomas hurts Claire like this, although she is very resentful, but once she sees that Claire is fine, she is easy to soften and let go of Thomas, which is almost expected.
Unless Claire is hurt by Thomas, then Anne will take Thomas's life. Zhen Fan was really speechless at the very different personalities of these two mothers and daughters, but he didn't expect his daughter to be more sensible than her mother. Shaking his head, Zhen Fan took Claire and Anne's hands up, and then smiled: "Don't think about it, Thomas, I don't think I will do such a hurtful thing again." And...... The witch, too, was hurt and won't reappear for a short time. β
Zhen Fan is almost certain that the witch has been injured by herself, and if she wants to be good, it is estimated that it will not work in a year or two. Zhen Fan originally kept a hand and wanted to catch it alive. Because this witch is a bit special, she fades out from time to time as a witch in the Western world, and she also has something Chinese Taoist in her. It's a bit like a branch of Taoism, the practice of the Sazhan sect. Because with the power to disturb the breath of the Taoist breath, you can know it.
It seems that it is still a combination of Chinese and Western cultivation methods. Zhen Fan couldn't help but shake his head and laugh, he couldn't imagine that Taoism was declining in China, but in the West, he could still find some roots. Then I remembered my third uncle, and I went back to find out if I could find some information related to this witch.
Not long after the three of them left the cave, they found their car, and then the three of them drove the car on their way home. As for the witch, as Thomas said, she didn't hurt Claire, she was just interested in Claire's jade pendant. Claire proves this.
"She wanted to snatch my jade pendant, but ...... How could I let her snatch my best friend? Claire said proudly to Zhen Fan, "She also asked me some strange questions, but unfortunately I didn't understand a word, but when she was about to take my jade pendant, Sasha helped me, but ...... I still don't know what happened to her? And her mom and dad. They were hurt by the witch. β
Claire said as she stroked the jade pendant, her face full of guilt, and then looked at Zhen Fan and said, "Dad." You can still get them all better, can you? If it weren't for them, I probably wouldn't have been able to keep this jade pendant! β
Zhen Fan smiled and said, "Yes, I will make them all better." They are in the jade pendant, originally to protect you, okay, don't be sad, I'll take the jade pendant today, and give it to you tomorrow, okay? He couldn't help but laugh, but Claire had a good heart.
"Oh well. I'd love to play with Sasha, but she's always in there, and I don't know if it's boring! Claire shrugged her shoulders and looked out the window, "Daddy - I won't call him Daddy anymore, I only have one Daddy, and that's you!" Claire turned her head and glanced at Zhen Fan.
"Of course, you're my daughter, all the time!" Zhen Fan looked at Claire very gently. (To be continued......)
