章節 316: Selfishness

Samantha leaned closer to listen to what he was saying, and her body froze slightly when she finally heard him.

He called out, "Daddy."

After a few seconds, she lowered her eyes and treaded softly out of the room.

She knew that Matthew was unhappy when she told him not to call Alan 'daddy' earlier that evening.

Despite all the love she had showered on him, she was still unable to fill the fatherly hole in his heart.

She remembered when Matthew still did not speak and was a little autistic at the age of two. Many other children in the residential area started making fun of him, saying that he was afraid to speak because he did not have a father.

Even if Samantha could scold those children and get them to leave, Matthew would still be in a bad state of mind.

She wanted to communicate with him during those times but there was nothing she could do if he neither spoke nor responded to her.
