Chapter 1214 - 1253: Once Is a Lifetime
The little one was already intently staring at that model, then tugged at Mabel Quinn’s hand, saying, "Mommy, this one, Mommy buy it!"
This set of models is not cheap, costing over 5000 dollars, equivalent to the monthly salary of an average person. Fortunately, in recent years, Mabel Quinn’s scripts have sold quite well, and her income is decent, so she doesn’t mind buying things for her daughter.
Within her means, she hopes to fulfill her daughter’s wishes and give her a happy childhood, just like her father did for her back then.
Mabel Quinn asked the shop assistant to make a note, then holding the little one’s hand, she walked over to the cashier counter to pay.
Kyle Kinston was a step ahead, taking out his card and saying, "Let me do it."
"No need." Mabel Quinn said, "This is what I promised Ivy; you don’t need to pay." After speaking, she also took out her bank card and handed it to the cashier.
The cashier was suddenly uncertain about whose card to take.
"The receipt is with me, so of course it’s my card that should be charged. Isn’t that obvious?" Mabel Quinn said to the cashier.
Only then did the cashier take Mabel Quinn’s card.
Kyle Kinston slightly pursed his lips; this was yet another clear rejection of his good intentions. It seemed that no matter what he did, she was always rejecting him.
Even today was the same, unless talking about matters related to their daughter, she would not say an extra word to him.
"I just want to be a bit nicer to our daughter." He lowered his eyes and voice, clearly not wanting their daughter to hear.
"If you really want to be good to her, then don’t let her be sad in the future. Never let her know that you once heartlessly didn’t want her." She also lowered her voice to reply.
His body barely perceptibly trembled, and just when she was about to take their daughter to the elevator, he suddenly grabbed her arm, pulling her into his embrace, "Back then, I didn’t want the child because..."
"Because? Because of what?" She chuckled lightly, "Actually, whatever the reason, it’s no longer important to me. Whether you disliked children or because of those shadows from your childhood, there’s no need to explain to me anymore."
His eyebrows furrowed tightly, not only because of her words but also because, for a fleeting moment, he impulsively wanted to tell her about the Kinston Family Blood Curse.
What was wrong with him? Why such impulsiveness? Or is it because he can no longer tolerate her rejections? Wanting her forgiveness, hoping she can accept him.
"Just one mistake, and it’s forever impossible for you to accept me again?" His gaze burningly fixed on her, his hoarse voice audible only to them.
Mabel Quinn stared blankly at the man in front of her; his expression was so earnest, as if desperately seeking an answer.
She took a deep breath, "That depends on what kind of mistake it is. Some mistakes can be corrected; you can start over again. But some mistakes, once made, are for a lifetime. Kyle Kinston, you’re right; I will never be able to accept you again."
She spoke softly, yet with certainty.
His face instantly turned extremely pale, and the hand clutching her arm became somewhat weak.
Mabel Quinn raised her hand and pried open Kyle Kinston’s fingers one by one, "Mr. Kinston, thank you for accompanying Ivy and me here to buy things today, but I think we can go back on our own."
