Chapter 14: Daddy

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

After consolidating the information he had eavesdropped on and planning according to Xavier’s movements, Zachary roughly grasped Xavier’s plan.

Regarding Xavier’s plan, Zachary had also made a big plan to catch them in the act. He was about to inform Bailey when he realized that his number was still on Bailey’s blacklist.

Seeing the red exclamation mark appear on the originally empty chat interface, the veins on Zachary’s forehead bulged with anger. He had seriously planned for that heartless little thing, Bailey but she couldn’t even think of pulling him out of her blacklist.

At the thought of this, Zachary felt unbalanced. He felt that he was too humble and aggrieved. Hence, Zachary held his breath and planned to ignore Bailey for a day and let her take the initiative to look for him.

Bailey, who was enjoying a rose milk bath, had indeed forgotten that she had blocked Zachary.

After enjoying herself and drinking some red wine, she heard a knock on the door and Father Shear’s voice. “Bailey, are you asleep? Daddy wants to talk to you.”

“Not yet!” Bailey replied, then put on her clothes and opened the door.

Jeremy’s expression was a little grave. Bailey naturally knew why. She had slapped Xavier at a banquet with so many people today and even mentioned breaking up on the spot and canceling the engagement. Such news would definitely reach her father’s ears.

Jeremy’s eyes were filled with anger towards Xavier. He believed that his daughter would not do such a thing for no reason.

However, when facing Bailey, Jeremy restrained himself very well. His tone was still very gentle as he said, “Daddy knows that you canceled the engagement today. Tell Daddy honestly, did that bastard Xavier do something to let you down? Tell Daddy, I will skin this kid!”

His daughter had never had a mother since she was young. Along the way, he had taken care of Bailey from a baby who had been learning how to speak to the elegant young lady now. She was a treasure in the world that he held in his hands. If anyone dared to bully his daughter, he would skin them alive.

Bailey quickly pulled Jeremy back and shook his head. “Dad, I was raised by you. Can I be bullied? Xavier’s small arms and legs aren’t even enough to be beaten up by me.”

Jeremy looked at his daughter’s arrogant expression and his anger dissipated a lot. He scratched Bailey’s little nose dotingly and said, “Yes, yes, yes. You’re the best.”

Bailey hugged Jeremy’s arm coquettishly, wishing she could reprimand herself in previous life.

Because she had not had her mother’s company since she was young, and as her father was strict with her when he was training her, she had stubbornly thought that she was a child without anyone’s love in her previous life. As a result, all sorts of Jeremy’s attempts to be close to her did not salvage Bailey’s impression of her father.

In addition, her second uncle and aunt both said that her father didn’t love her, so he was very strict with her. Every time they met, her second aunt would always wipe her tears as she spoke. As she applied medicine on the bruises on Bailey’s body, she would say that a child without a mother was pitiful.

As a result, in her previous life, Bailey lacked love and felt that her second uncle and the others loved her.

In the end, she let her second uncle’s family take whatever they wanted. She did not reject any requests. She was even so good to Julia, her little cousin, that her fiancé was snatched away. Bailey was actually still thinking of fulfilling their wishes to be together. Hahaha, it was too ridiculous.

Bailey only had one evaluation of herself in her previous life: stupid!

A person who devised strategies in the business world had actually failed miserably in the hands of her family. It would make people laugh their heads off.

Jeremy patted Bailey’s back gently to comfort her.

The father and daughter snuggled together warmly and quietly for a while before Bailey got up.

“Dad, there’s indeed a problem with Xavier, but I want to deal with him myself, so Dad, can you let me do it myself?” Bailey asked with her eyes widened.

Jeremy sighed and said with heartache, “I’m worried about you and afraid that you’ll be unhappy. Since you said that you want to handle it yourself, then let go. I’ll take responsibility for any consequences.”

Bailey said happily, “Daddy, you’re the best father in the world. I love you.”

Jeremy was a little surprised that Bailey said that she loved him.

Jeremy knew that he would only have one daughter in his life, Bailey, so the Shear family’s business would definitely be inherited by Bailey. This was also why he had trained Bailey so strictly when she was young.

It was not easy for a girl to survive in this world, especially a beautiful girl with a lot of assets. She was like a lamb in a pack of hungry wolves, facing a world full of danger.
