1374: Chapter 1990: Don’t forget, you grew up in the Lawrence family.
Parents’ favoritism is a common thing.
There’s never been a bowl of water that’s perfectly balanced.
However, what Benjamin Lawrence was doing at the mont still made Joanna heartbroken.
He blad all the faults on her alone.
He never bothered to think whether Annie had done any wrong too.
Benjamin Lawrence t Joanna’s injured gaze, his face changed color, and he belatedly realized that he might have said the wrong thing.
But he was unsatisfied with Joanna’s attitude.
When he thought back to what Rose Liall had said, he thought that Joanna’s attitude now may be due to her looking down on him.
She had found her birth parents.
Now she was the daughter of the White family.
The gap between the Lawrence family and the White family was a hundred, a thousand tis.
It was normal for her to look down on him, a useless adoptive father.
As he thought about it, Benjamin Lawrence felt his self-esteem being hurt.
He frowned, “Is this how you talk to your elders?
Are you questioning ?
Joanna, do you think that now that you’ve found your birth parents, I, as your adoptive father, don’t matter to you anymore?”
“Don’t forget, you grew up in the Lawrence family.”
“Even if you’re the well-bred lady of the White family, so what?
Do you think you can put on airs in front of because of this status?
I don’t buy your act!”
Joanna was stunned for a few seconds, watching Benjamin’s face grow red with anger.
Her heart seed to plumt instantly into an ice cellar.
From the inside out, her heart was thoroughly chilled.
Benjamin still looked very angry, “If you want to find your birth parents, I won’t stop you.
All these years, I’ve been looking into your parents’ situation, just that there hasn’t been any news.
But why did you hide it from ?
Even Rose knows about it, and I’m being kept in the dark.”
“Do you plan to hide it from for the rest of your life?”
“Are you afraid that I’ll stop you from finding your parents?”
Joanna remained silent throughout the conversation.
After Benjamin finished speaking, she finally loosened her tight grip on her fingers, her lips curved, and her eyes filled with mockery said, “Dad, so that’s who I am in your heart.
I’m ungrateful, cruel, disrespectful to my father, and I even sent my own sister to the hospital.”
“Having raised such a thankless daughter, do you regret taking in back then?”
“I don’t want to talk about Annie’s situation.
Just think of as a thankless person.
I don’t have a sister like her.
Only Jeremy and you are my family.
As for the others, I’ve never treated them as family.”
“Of course, they never treated as family either.
It’s just an equal relationship.”
“As for my birth parents, I didn’t an to hide it from you.
We had all agreed to talk to you about this, but now…”
“And, my finding my birth parents is not what you think.
I never wanted to hide it from you, I’ve always wanted to tell you.”
“But I guess no matter what I say now, you won’t believe it.”
“In your heart, you’ve concluded that I’m an ungrateful person.”
Benjamin Lawrence frowned.
“I thought this eting would be a pleasant experience, at least not as bad as last ti.
It seems that I was wrong.” Joanna said with a self-mocking smile, “If you called here just to talk about Annie’s situation, then I have nothing to say.”
