Thaddeus, with a stern fatherly demeanor, rebuked his daughter. “How could you speak in that kind of
tone to your old man? And who are you calling a geezer?”
Lea, hiding behind her mother, stuck out her tongue at him. “That would be you, you geezer!”
“You…” Thaddeus’ face changed colors. His daughter’s rebellious attitude left him speechless.
Bertha, defending her daughter, interjected. “That’s enough now. I’ll handle disciplining my daughter.
You should go keep Sophia company.”
Thaddeus reached out to touch Bertha’s hand. “Bertha, if we’re going back, let’s go together.”
Bertha avoided his touch. “I’ll stick to what I said. If you agree to my conditions, I’ll consider going back
with you.”
Thaddeus was agitated. “I don’t understand! Why are you siding with an outsider? Isn’t it nice to see
Sophia happy?”
Bertha frowned. “Happy? Do you really think Sophia has been happy these past few years? She’s just
fooling herself. Marcus, who doesn’t even remember her, has no love for her. Keeping someone by
your side out of obligation doesn’t mean happiness. And I’m not siding with an outsider!”
Thaddeus didn’t want to comment on Sophia’s situation, but he had a lot to say about Bertha’s last
remark.
“You’re not siding with an outsider? Marcus’ former family has nothing to do with us. Why are you
fighting for them?”
Bertha shook her head. “Who said Marcus’ former family has nothing to do with us?
Do you remember the car accident four years ago when we had a fight and I took Lea and left home? I
needed a blood transfusion, and a pregnant woman, who was a complete stranger to me, donated her
blood to save me. That woman was none other than Marcus’ former wife, Ellinor!
She saved my life once, and I owe her. How could I help you and Sophia take away the man she
loves? I can’t do that!”
Thaddeus was shocked. “What? It was her?”
Lea intervened. “Yes! It was her! The hospital had a blood shortage, and Mom was on the brink of
death. Ellinor donated blood and even brought a friend with the same blood type to donate as well.
That’s how Mom was saved.
Dad, if it weren’t for Ellinor, you wouldn’t have seen Mom again. You always taught me to be grateful
and to repay the kindness given to me. But our family not only didn’t repay her kindness; we also
ruined her family. How is that fair?”
Thaddeus was too shocked to speak.
How could this happen?
Was God playing tricks on him?
With a heavy heart, Bertha sighed. “Thaddeus, I know you still care for me, but our standpoints are too
different. I can’t look at things from Sophia’s perspective, and you can’t see them from mine. Maybe we
should just let it be.”
