章 63: So Forgetful

Maury felt guilty and regretful. What had he done to Emily? He had planned to give her a good life by keeping her by his side. But eventually, what did he bring to his kid?

"Emily, it's my fault. It's Dad's fault." Maury reached out and held Emily into his arms. He said something which he used to feel hard to tell. "I shouldn't have brought you back. If you stayed with Mom, you wouldn't have suffered these. Do you miss Mom? If you do, I will take you to see her, okay?"

"Really?" Emily sobbed and looked up at Maury with a pair of moist eyes. She had never seen her mother since she moved to the Britt's in her previous life.

When Maury saw the Emily's face smudged with lipstick, he felt extremely sad. He touched her face and said softly, "I always keep my word."

Emily still didn't believe it. Tears streamed down her clear eyes as she asked again, "Dad, are you lying to me?"

Maury felt sorry for Emily. "I'm serious. I give you my word."
