Chapter 1199: Chapter 1202: You Can’t Wake a Person Who Is Pretending to Sleep (Extra 4) Chapter 1199: Chapter 1202: You Can’t Wake a Person Who Is Pretending to Sleep (Extra 4) “Larry Scott, explain yourself—is what Tania said true?”
Mason Scott held Tania Scott in his arms, roaring in extre fury at Larry Scott.
“Yes, it’s true,” Larry Scott didn’t deny it.
The slight guilt that had just started to surface disappeared the mont Tania Scott threw herself into Mason Scott and Wendy Jenkins’s arms to tattle.
He had almost forgotten that he too had tried to raise Tania.
Every ti he returned ho from a mission, he looked for her, talked to her at length, and spent ti with her, only to be t with “I want to play with Grandpa” and “I want to go shopping with Grandma.”
Compared to her parents, what Tania cherished and preferred more were her grandparents.
Especially in those days, before Larry Scott had moved up in military rank.
When Tania Scott went out, she only identified herself as Mr. Scott’s great-granddaughter, even reluctant to ntion she was Larry Scott’s daughter.
Ha…
mories flashed through his mind—his daughter had been spoiled rotten.
So much so that she would resort to using her own body as a trade to get everything she desired.
“Tania Scott, I give you two choices. The first one, take three strikes from the military baton as a lesson, end your association with the so-called Aidan Lucas, and you must feign illness and not attend the old man’s birthday banquet. If you can do that, from now on, you are still my, Larry Scott’s, daughter. No matter what difficulties you encounter in the future, I, Larry Scott, will make decisions for you and be your support.”
“The second path, if you can’t do any of the aforentioned points, then starting today, I won’t care about you anymore. Whether you live or die, whether it’s fortune or calamity, it will all be your own choice.”
Larry Scott’s voice was cold but forceful, with an undeniable seriousness.
Everyone present could tell he was not joking—he was serious.
“I…” Tania Scott might have been spoiled, but the thought of severing ties with Larry Scott was sothing she couldn’t decide on in the spur of the mont.
Larry Scott, ah, Commander Scott, is not a common man but the second most powerful person in the military command.
How could she give up such a father?
But, to accept the punishnt, the pain of three strikes from the military baton, she couldn’t even imagine it.
Moreover, it would an giving up Aidan Lucas, with whom she’d hardly managed to connect…
When she thought of the man’s tender gaze and his distinguished, handso face, Tania Scott couldn’t let go of her admiration for him.
“Dad… Do you really believe that adoptive daughter, Lily Redington, over ? I am your daughter, the real one. Aidan Lucas and I are the perfect match, a match made in heaven. Lily Redington is jealous, she’s just jealous of , Dad… you can’t…”
“At this point, are you still stubbornly refusing to see sense? Tania Scott, let tell you once more, Lily Redington is Aidan Lucas’s wife, they are married, when exactly will you stop deluding yourself!”
In his fury, Larry Scott still cared for his daughter, and he revealed the truth to her.
He had thought that by telling her about the relationship between Lily and Aidan Lucas, she would give up and feel regret.
But…
Disappointnt, such a disappointnt.
At that mont, Mason Scott finally understood as well.
All at once, his temper flared, and pointing his finger at Larry Scott, he shouted, “You unfilial thing, have you been giving Tania a hard ti for the sake of an outsider all this while?”
“Ptui—What Aidan Lucas’s wife? How could an adoptive daughter be worthy of him! Larry Scott, have you been blinded by fat? You’ve been fooled by that bitch Sylvia Scott! She still resents , resents our Scott family, so she purposefully sent an adoptive daughter back to tornt our family. Let tell you, Larry Scott, Tania is the one who truly matches Aidan Lucas, a match of equal social stand. Do you see the ring on Tania’s hand? That is the evidence!”
Mason Scott grabbed Tania’s left hand, showcasing the sparkling diamond ring.
They indeed didn’t believe, just as Lily had predicted before she left.
You can never wake a person who is pretending to sleep.
“Fine, if that’s how it is… then I won’t ddle anymore. Tania Scott, from now on… take care of yourself…”
