Daddies Taste Better CHAPTER 426: How Cruel Does That Make me
Mom stiffened so slowly it was almost worse than if she had shouted. She turned her head toward me as if she needed time to decide whether I had actually said it. Dad’s hands loosened on her arms, not because he was letting her go, but because the sentence had landed on him too.I let out a small, disbelieving breath.“Ahh. I see how it is.” My voice was shaking, but it kept coming. “That’s why. That’s why you completely erased him. Because he was going to ruin your happy family. Was that why you never told me about him? Because there wasn’t room for him once you had the version you wanted?”“No,” Mom said immediately. “It wasn’t that simple.”She started walking toward me, tears slipping over now, her hands out like she still thought she could reach me and make the words smaller.“It wasn’t because he was inconvenient, Saraphina. It wasn’t because we wanted some picture-perfect life and he didn’t fit in the frame. We were scared of what he might do. That’s the truth. We were scared
Daddies Taste Better CHAPTER 425: I Can See It
“All those times you hasitated every time I asked about the house, was it because you were living with him? I can’t believe I sat on the phone with you and told myself it was exams, or homesickness, or you being stubborn about independence, and the whole time that man was in the same building filling your head with God knows what.”“He wasn’t filling my head with anything!”“Don’t.” She jerked against Dad’s hold hard enough that the balloons on the nearest chair bumped together. “Don’t stand there and protect him. You have no idea what he is or a single bit of what he does. He’s a vicious, selfish son of a bitch! He has always been!”“Mom, stop.”She didn’t. The suite was too small for the way her voice kept rising, for the way every sentence about Noah came out like she was scraping something old out of her chest.“He ruins things, Saraphina,” she went on. “That’s what he does.”“I said stop.”“Why?” she snapped. “Because he was nice to you? Huh? Did he act like he gave a shit? How
Daddies Taste Better CHAPTER 424: Still…
The suite was already lit up when Dad opened the door, and for a second I just stood in the doorway and stared.There were balloons tied to the backs of the chairs, a banner stretched a little unevenly across the far wall that read happy birthday in gold letters and, underneath it, in a different handwriting that was unmistakably my mother’s, So glad you're finally done with exams. On the table sat a bowl of the snacks I always reached for first when I was home, the expensive ones Mom used to hide on the high shelf and then pretend she hadn’t bought for me. Next to it were wrapped boxes, a small cake with too many candles already set in the frosting, and a stack of plates.Mom watched my expression.“What do you think?”I let the door close behind me before I answered.“My birthday is in two days.”The smile on her face slipped, then came back thinner and nervous around the edges. She laughed once, and glanced at Dad like she wanted him to take some of the weight of it.“Oh. You remem
Daddies Taste Better CHAPTER 423: I Didn’t Answer That
I looked at her, then at the car behind James, then back at the building I had just walked out of, as if any of those things might give me a cleaner way out of this mess. “My… my things,” I let out immediately the idea came to mind and turn to parent. “My things are still there. I need to go back and get them.” Mom’s expression shifted immediately, the congratulations warmth thinning into something less patient. “Then we’ll follow you. Or James can take us. It doesn’t have to be complicated, Saraphina. We’ll help you pack whatever you need and then we can go to dinner.” “That’s not—” I stopped myself before the rest of it came out too defensive again. “Its not that simple. I can’t just disappear from the house like I was never staying there and I also need to get the things I need.” James cleared his throat once, quietly enough that it still cut through the pause. “That won’t be necessary,” he said. “I’ll bring Miss Saraphina’s things to her tomorrow.” I turned toward him befor
Daddies Taste Better CHAPTER 422: Since THEN?
“What are you doing here?” The question flew out WAY too loud and aggressively passive-aggressive that a couple of students walking past us actually hit a full pause, side-eyed the drama for a solid two seconds, before deciding it wasn’t their business. Mom’s smile faltered, just slightly, the way it always did when I didn’t immediately fold into whatever version of the moment she had pictured. Dad stayed where he was, a half-step behind her. “We wanted to surprise you,” she said, recovering fast, already reaching as if a hug would settle the rest. “You finished. We thought—” “You said you were going to wait.” I didn’t let her finish. “So what are you doing here?” Her hands dropped back to her sides. For a second she looked almost hurt, and I hated that it worked on me even while I was still angry. But seriously, what was I supposed to do now? They were standing on the same stretch of pavement I had been trying to keep separate from them for weeks, close enough now that one
Daddies Taste Better CHAPTER 421: Congratulations, Sweetheart!
If I’d tanked that exam, the rest of my day would’ve been completely ruined.Luckily, it went surprisingly well. Pretty much everything I’d crammed into my head over the past week actually showed up on the test. My hand was dead from writing non-stop, but I had all the answers down. When I finally set the pen down and handed the paper in, the relief hit so hard it almost made me dizzy.I stepped out of the building into the early afternoon light, bag lighter without the stack of notes I’d been carrying for days, and nearly walked straight into Sarah.She caught my elbow with a quick laugh, already talking before I’d fully steadied myself.“Oh my God — you’re done too?” Her whole face was bright with it, the specific kind of excitement that only came from surviving a last exam. “I thought I was going to throw up in the middle of the second section. Did yours go okay? Please tell me yours went okay so I don’t feel crazy for being this happy.”“It went well,” I said. “Better than I exp
