Chapter 44 The Painful Past
Mia blinked her eyes. After a long time, she found her voice. “How... how did you know?” “Isn’t it very simple?”
Ben blinked innocently. “Isn’t him your former husband?”
Mia only felt that there was a breath stuck in her chest and didn’t know if she should spit it out.
Children’s logic was indeed very simple, and it was sharp enough.
After a long silence, she finally nodded and said, “Yes, he is your father.”
Anna finally understood what they meant. She looked at Mia and Ben in confusion. “Father? Where did this father come
from?”
“That bad guy.” Ben told Anna concisely.
Anna widened her eyes and said, “Then we don’t want this father, let’s change.”
The depression in Mia’s chest suddenly dissipated. She covered her eyes and took a deep breath. “You...”
She knew that the two children had fantasized about their father when they were young, but because she avoided talking about
him, they gradually stopped asking about this person.
Ben walked up to Mia and took her hand. His dark eyes were filled with determination as he said, “Joe made you unhappy. We
don’t want him.”
Mia smiled at them with red eyes.
She couldn’t possibly pretend to be magnanimous and tell the children that Joe was their father, and that they should let go of
the grudges and reconcile with him. She couldn’t possibly give Joe the slightest chance to snatch them away from her.
Five years ago, she went abroad in low spirits, only to find herself pregnant after being retrieved by her family.
Mia almost didn’t hesitate to keep the children.
At that time, she had not yet gained a firm foothold in the Clinton Family and was just informed all kinds of things about her
mother. It could be said that every step was difficult for her. In addition, her premature pregnancy reaction was extremely serious.
She could only rely on Nutrients to maintain her life. In less than three months, she had lost a third of her weight.
Fortunately, some of her relatives took good care of her, so she gradually came out of that terrible state.
The most dangerous thing was that she had a hemorrhage when she gave birth to the babies.
At that time, she was almost injected with the amount of blood
that an adult should have before she was barely rescued. What followed was a long-term recovery and recuperation. She had
been lying in the hospital for three months.
She even remembered that when she was discharged from the hospital, the two children had already shed their jaundice and
looked white and tender. When they saw her for the first time, they smiled sweetly at her.
Coming back to her senses, Mia held the two children in her arms and said nothing.
Anna whispered to Mia, “Will David be our father?”
Mia was stunned and replied in a gentle voice, “He is not yet. Do you like him?”
Anna nodded heavily. “He has a lot of delicious food. If he is my father, I can eat delicious food every day!!”
Even David himself would not have thought that one day he would win in this respect.
“If you don’t like him, I can help you find other men secretly!” Anna nodded heavily and said seriously, “Don’t worry, a man who is
good to children must be a good man!”
Mia didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. She couldn’t persuade them, so she finally decided to take them to the company.
