Can't Get Away With You

Chapter 17 Heartbroken

When Lois vaguely saw Maggie playing there, she instinctively wanted to take a step closer, but was stopped by the guards.

"That's my daughter. I want to have a look at her," she suppressed the bitterness in her eyes and said, "I just want to have a look. Please."

The guard frowned and said impolitely, "I'm sorry. We can't get in and out freely." © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

Lois was stunned. It was her who came to pick up the children everyday before. Perhaps she had annoyed Joey, so these people had been instructed by Joey

Unwilling to give up, Lois said, "the child was sick some time ago. I will only take a look at her from a distance and see if she health, then I will leave."

"There are no sick child here. They are all very healthy!"

"But..."

"Please don't disturb our work! Please leave now! "

The man said "please", but he began to pull Lois's arm. He frowned slightly and did not have much patience.

Maggie, who was laughing with her playmates, suddenly turned to look at the gate of the kindergarten. It seemed that she had a telepathy. She stood up and ran to the place where Lois was standing just now.

Looking at the figure, Lois covered her mouth tightly and didn't dare to make a sound. The security guard's voice was still in her ear, "Miss, I do understand your feelings now, but do you know the result

after talking with the child? They won't do anything to you, but the child doesn't have the ability to protect herself!

She could only hold back her tears and look at her child from the corner of the wall, but she did not dare to go forward. She could not guarantee the safety of her child, so she did not dare to move.

It seemed that everyone knew that Maggie was her weakness. They all threatened her with Maggie.

The teacher of the kindergarten walked quickly to Maggie and patted her on the shoulder with a smile. She lowered her head and said something to the little girl. Maggie pursed her lips and looked at the wall under the tree. She nodded and followed the teacher away.

Seeing that Maggie was taken away by the teacher, Lois walked out from behind the wall. Seeing that the little pink girl gradually faded out of sight, Lois lowered her head helplessly.

Lois looked at the children who were still playing in the kindergarten, heartbroken but without her daughter, she chuckled. As expected, Joey was cold-blooded enough.

"Miss Shen, you'd better leave now. It's not good for anyone to make a scene..."

Driven far away, Lois looked at the children who were still playing happily in the kindergarten from a distance. In the reflection of the tree, she seemed to see the looming pink figure again.

She remembered what Joey once said, "Maggie has almost forgotten you.".

"Maggie almost forgot me..."Lois's eyes were moist and her pale lips were pale and pitiful.

She looked down at the road under her feet. Without Maggie, how could she go on?

If Joey didn't torture her, what would he do to her child?

At a loss, Lois walked on the road like a puppet.

People walked through the street in a hurry, causing a wave of heat, but she was shivering like living in the North Pole.

Lois walked slowly, as if no matter how hot the temperature was, it would not warm up her walking ice.

Joey wouldn't give her the custody of Maggie so easily. She didn't even know whether he was going to give it to her or continue to make things difficult for her.

If Joey just wanted to make things difficult for her, how could he let her go? She knew nothing.

Lois tried hard to search for all the seemingly feasible methods.

There was a way to divorce. As long as the couple was sent to the court, they could break up. But she knew that Joey had ten thousand ways to refuse the court's judgment, and there were also some ways to make her withdraw the lawsuit. She didn't dare to bet. She bet on Maggie which she couldn't afford it.

If a couple had been separated for three years, they could have negotiated a divorce. But now she couldn't see the child at all. If they hadn't seen each other for three years, Maggie would definitely forget her. Then the court would not give the child to her.

No matter how hard she tried, she couldn't figure it out. But the thought that Maggie would follow Joey made her shiver all over. The disgusting eyes of him were still in her mind.

As an adult, she wanted to avoid eye contact, but let a child bear it. She couldn't imagine, nor could she give up fighting. Giving up was equivalent to giving up the whole life of Maggie.

Joey wouldn't let Maggie have a good time. He loved Sally very much. If Sally married into the Gu Family, according to Sally's scheming and tolerance, Maggie would be tens of thousands of times more miserable than Cinderella!

Lois slightly raised her head and squinted at the sun. It was dazzling and warm. No matter how cold her heart was, she could not escape from her physiological instinct. The sweat on her forehead fell down along her temples and dropped on the ground, instantly evaporated.

She closed her eyes gradually and didn't open them until she felt dizzy. The passers-by pointed at her from time to time but didn't let her look sideways. She slowly raised her legs and left the place.

Lois walked aimlessly and finally returned to the hospital when the sun was setting.

As soon as she pushed the door open, she saw Tania, who looked flustered, walk quickly over. "Oh my God, where on earth have you been?"

Lois opened his mouth, lowered his head and said nothing.

"You're still a kid. You can play and disappear without saying anything!"

Lois pressed his lips and kept silent.

"You didn't even take your phone. Where can I find you if something happens to you?"

The sound of anxiety could be heard continuously. Lois lowered her head in shame. She was also capricious, making people who cared about her anxious like ants in a hot pot.

"Tell me! Where have you been? " Tania frowned and glared at Lois.

Seeing that Tania wouldn't give up until she made it clear, Lois pursed her lips and mumbled, "I just want to see Maggie..."

Tania's anger seemed to have been poured down, and she suddenly lost her sternness. She helplessly glared at Lois, "tell me, will I not let you go!

Depressed, Lois lowered her eyelids, walked past Tania and went to bed. Maggie's figure seemed to be jumping in front of her, and her silvery laughter was still ringing in her ears

When Tania was about to say more, she saw the sweat on Lois's face and her pale lips. She was angry and distressed. She wanted to comfort Lois, but then saw her lying on the bed and curling up with her eyes closed.

Pursing her lips, Tania stamped her feet and her eyes turned red. "You haven't fully recovered yet. You need to cooperate with the doctor's treatment."

Judging from the expression on Lois's face, she knew that she must have been stimulated and hadn't seen Maggie.

She didn't really support Lois to fight for custody with Joey. A woman, especially a divorced woman, would be alienated wherever she went with her child. Even if she put aside worldly prejudice, it would inevitably affect her future life.

In Tania's eyes, Lois should have asked for a divorce directly. She shouldn't care about her child or property. Nowadays, it wouldn't affect the rest of her life if she didn't give up all her property. Anyway, Lois had the ability to support herself for the rest of her life.
