The Year I Was the Other Woman To Myself novel Chapter 776

“Are you out of your minds? Why would you bring a kid here? You...”

“Mr. Stapleton, I insisted on coming. I haven't seen you in days, and I missed you so much!”

Marico Stapleton snapped, “Go home! I don't want to see you!”

Kristin's feelings were immediately hurt by the shout.

“Mr. Stapleton, do you not like me anymore? Is it because you were sick and I didn't visit you in the hospital? I already talked to Uncle Handsome, and he promised to take me to see you on Saturday. Please don't be mad at me, okay?”

Seeing Marico's expression soften, Penelope Laurier rushed over to Kristin and whispered, “Keep crying, Kristin. Cry louder.”

Kristin always listened to Penelope. Even though she didn't understand why, she let out a loud wail and started bawling.

“You really do hate me now! I'm so sad! I like you so much, but you don't like me anymore!”

Natalie Taylor chimed in, “You bastard, are you going to kill someone right in front of Kristin?”

Those words hit hard. Marico loosened his death grip on Charley Sargent.

Natalie intentionally let go of Kristin, and the little girl ran crying toward Marico.

Seeing the child rushing at him, Marico quickly tossed the knife aside, blocking the blood-soaked Charley from her view. He was furious and irritable, but faced with a little girl crying about how much she liked him, he was genuinely afraid of scaring her.

“Natalie, you're absolutely ruthless!”

Charley was rushed to the hospital. Given the gravity of the situation, Marico had to make a trip to the police station. However, since Charley had thrown the first punch at the hospital, the Sargent family was too afraid to offend the Stapleton family. They brushed it off as a misunderstanding and chose not to press charges.
