She Denied Our Daughter, so I'll Find Her a New Mom

The moment Lillian saw that, her usual cold demeanor cracked, replaced by jealousy and madness. She rushed over and raised her hand to slap Vivienne. "You shameless homewrecker, you stole my husband and daughter!"I was just about to intervene when Rosie beat me to it. She stepped in front of Vivienne to shield her. "Don't you dare hit my mom, you bad woman!"Lillian froze. It took her a while to process what was happening before she demanded, her lips trembling, "You're actually protecting her? Have you forgotten that I'm your real mother?"Rosie shook her head and let her tears fall freely. "You're not my mom! If you are, why didn't you acknowledge me for nine years? You only have room in your heart for Marcus. You never cared about me or Daddy."Guilt flashed across Lillian's face, and she stammered, "T-that's not true. Marcus is… just a work friend of mine."Rosie covered her ears and sobbed, "I don't believe you! If he's just a friend, why do you kiss and hug him? You've neve

Lillian paled and immediately lunged forward to snatch my phone before throwing it on the ground. Then, she stomped on it several times with all her might until the screen was shattered and the device was dead.Lillian eyed me in disbelief. "Daniel Coleman, are you trying to ruin me?"I let out a derisive chuckle. "So, you do have things you're afraid of, Lillian. I didn't know you, too, had a weak spot!"She trembled uncontrollably, as if she didn't understand what I meant. However, I couldn't be bothered to wait for her to figure it out. I bluntly exposed her malicious intentions. "You don't love me, and you don't love Rosie. You just want to control us. Since you want to use her to spite me, you can't blame me for returning the favor."Lillian looked crushed. "How could you have…" She couldn't bring herself to finish the sentence. For the past ten years, she treated me like a fool. She assumed that since I had no proof of her affair with Marcus, I was powerless against her

Rosie shook her head and ignored him.He continued, "Parents don't stop at one child, so you shouldn't be satisfied with just one mom, either."Rosie huddled in Vivienne's arms and proudly declared, "Mom told me that even if she has more kids, she'll still love me. So, I only need one mom. I don't need another bad one!"That immediately set Lillian off. Grasping Rosie's shoulders, she shook her and questioned her like a madwoman. "What did you just say? Did you just call me a bad mom?"Rosie firmly responded, "You're a bad mom!"Lillian raised her hand to strike her, but I stopped her. "What right do you have to hit my daughter? Ms. Harmon, you are overstepping your bounds!"Lillian looked at me in disbelief. "Your daughter? Isn't she also m—"She glanced at Marcus and corrected herself. "My goddaughter? Also, what did you just call me? Ms. Harmon? Since when did we become so estranged?"I snickered. "I have no intention of letting my daughter have any godmothers!" Then, I as

A week later, Lillian called me yet again. Her voice was faint, as if she might stop breathing at any moment. "I don't have much time left, Daniel. Can you bring Rosie to see me one last time?"I felt a flicker of compassion and promised her that I would ask for Rosie's opinion. After hanging up, I went online to do some digging, and that was when I finally pieced together what had happened.Marcus had been by Lillian's side the entire time, livestreaming everything she did. He claimed that he was the real victim, having been deceived by Lillian for years. According to him, he had unknowingly become the side piece and had been kept completely in the dark. He alleged that it was only after I released the explicit videos that he discovered she was married with a child. He further accused Lillian of abusing her power to take advantage of him for ten whole years. He even claimed that when Lillian attempted to slit her wrists out of shame, he was the kind soul who had saved her.As t

Three years later, Vivienne and I were officially married, and she was pregnant with my child. On the day our baby was born, I waited outside the delivery room, consumed by anxiety. I had a feeling something big was about to happen that day.Everything clicked when I stumbled upon Marcus' post on X. He had been released from prison. His post read, "At last, I'm free! It's time to settle the score!"Given his petty nature and his inability to distinguish right from wrong, he was bound to seek revenge. I called Rosie and told her to stay at school and not to leave the gates until I got there to pick her up. Rosie agreed, but for some reason, half an hour later, she arrived at the hospital with Lillian. Lillian was holding a bouquet of flowers. "I specifically chose lilies for you. I hope you and Vivienne have a long, happy marriage and a beautiful life together."I accepted it and asked, "Do you know what day it is today?"Lillian nodded. "Don't worry. I already have someone ke
