Bab 75: 075 My destiny is controlled by me, not by the heavens

Gem Atkinson's thoughts were interrupted by Forsythia Brown's chatter, and as time went by, she got up from her seat.

"Daddy, I'm leaving now. I'll come to see you again next time."

After kissing Mr. Atkinson's forehead once more, Forsythia reluctantly left.

As the door was pulled open, she was startled to see a tall and handsome man standing outside. She stepped back in shock, her heart pounding, staring at him with frightened, wide eyes.

When did he arrive?

How much had he heard?

In truth, Forsythia had no need to worry. First, the door had excellent sound insulation. Second, the man was lost in thought and didn't pay attention to what she was saying.

However, seeing her reaction, Gem Atkinson raised the corner of his mouth in a cold smile. "What? Afraid? Guilty?"

"What guilt? It's you standing here silently like a thief that makes you look guilty."
