Miracle Doctor Daddy

In the afternoon, when Lachlan went to pick up Nora, he saw that her homeroom teacher had been replaced by another young female teacher. Alicia, who was always trying to please others, must have been fired. However, as he led Nora out of the kindergarten, he saw someone he really didn’t want to see at the entrance.

“Lachlan…” A voice full of complex emotions rang out.

“Son-in-law and my lovely granddaughter! Come on, give me a hug!”

Claudia, Maisie and Adam appeared here with enthusiasm.

Even Adam clapped his hands and squatted down towards Nora as if filled with affection. But when Nora saw them she just grabbed Lachlan’s hand and shrank back a little bit.

Especially when she looked at Claudia, there was some fear in her eyes. The little one couldn’t forget last time when Claudia took her to an empty place where she wanted to hand her over to strangers.

“What’s wrong with you Nora? Don’t you recognize your mother or grandma or grandpa?” Maisie smiled kindly.

Lachlan looked at these three people with disgust on his face and coldly asked, “Claudia, what do you want?”

This woman dared to appear in front of him!

“Lachlan, I just miss my daughter so I came here for a visit.” Claudia bit her lip looking pitiful while speaking softly.

“Lachlan, what are you doing? We’re all family,” said Maisie laughing gently.

Adam also spoke earnestly, “Lachlan, we’re all family how can we hold grudges against each other? Claudia is Nora’s biological mother after all; we are grandparents of this child so let bygones be bygones.”

Lachlan looked at them expressionlessly, “Family? Sorry but it hasn’t been like that for a long time!”

“Nora, let’s go!” He said leading her away from his ex-wife’s family.

However at this moment Maisie and Adam blocked their way.

“Lachlan, how could you do this? Even if you can bear it yourself, what about Nora? Can she not recognize her own mother?” questioned Maisie.

“Have you ever seen a mother who would sell her own child to someone else?”

“Get lost!”

Lachlan’s face was cold, and he spoke in a harsh tone.

“Oh come on, I’m not going anywhere. What are you going to do about it?”

Adam stuck his neck out and confronted Lachlan.

Lachlan frowned and tried to push them away, but before he could touch them, Maisie screamed loudly.

“He hit me! He hit me…”

Adam also pointed at Lachlan and shouted, “Look at this heartless man who abandoned his wife after marrying into a wealthy family! And now he wants to fight his in-laws! How can there be such cruel people in this world…”

The commotion immediately attracted the attention of the surrounding people.

Lachlan frowned. He was somewhat troubled by their despicable behavior. Could he really lay hands on Maisie and Adam in front of Nora?

Just then, Claudia approached him softly and advised, “Dad, Mom, please stop shouting. It’s not good for Lachlan or Nora.”

She then turned to Lachlan with an entreating tone, “Lachlan, can we talk alone somewhere else? Don’t let people laugh at us here…”

Lachlan raised an eyebrow as he looked around at the pointing crowd. His expression darkened slightly.

“Fine! Let’s see what you want to talk about.”

Claudia gave him a complicated look before walking ahead herself.

With Nola holding onto his hand tightly behind him, Lachlan followed her lead reluctantly.

He wanted to know what this woman was up to anyway?

After a while, Claudia stopped near the Eastview Kindergarten – an old six-story building complex that had seen better days – perhaps because she didn’t want anyone else pointing fingers or for some other reason altogether.

“What do you want to talk about?” asked Lachlan expressionlessly.

Holding Nora’s small hand, he and Claudia were standing under the residential building.

“Lachlan, can I have one more chance please? I realized these past few days that without you, without my daughter, I cannot go on living! During the day I think of both of you; even when asleep I dream of being with my daughter again…”

“Please forgive me…”

As she squatted down, she reached out to take Nora’s little hand. “Nora, do you miss your mom?”

At that moment, Lachlan pulled Nora behind him and spoke in a cold tone. “Don’t touch her!”

Claudia looked sad and helpless. “Last time I didn’t mean to harm our daughter. Tiger said he wouldn’t hurt Nora and I only did it to get back at you.”

“I’ve reflected on myself during this time! I swear I’ll change my ways and live a good life with you, okay?”

“Honey, there’s no way you don’t have any feelings left for me? Am I right?” Claudia asked pitifully with teary eyes.

But Lachlan remained unmoved as he shook his head. “Claudia, stop playing these games. I won’t believe anything you say anymore.”

Ha! This woman wanted to live happily ever after with him?

Maybe she could…

It wasn’t entirely impossible…

But wasn’t it just because she saw how well he was doing now? When they were still living in the rental house before, the first time she said she had changed her mind was when she heard that he had become part of the Lowe family.

Lachlan felt like he already understood Claudia’s true nature!!

Claudia looked heartbroken as she sat there hugging her knees while crying softly.

“Lachlan, is your heart really so cruel? Do you really want me all alone without anyone else?”

“Even if it doesn’t bother you at all, does Nora not want her mother around?” She turned tearful eyes towards Nora. “Nora honey, do you miss mommy? Mommy made a mistake last time but mommy will change for good this time around if given another chance.”

Upon hearing Claudia’s words, Nora blinked several times revealing an expression of reluctance on her small face.

“Mom… Mommy…” She whispered softly at last.

“Yes yes! My sweet girl! Come here let mommy hug…” Upon hearing those words from Nora, Claudia seemed overjoyed beyond measure as she reached out to embrace her daughter.

And finally, Nora stepped forward from behind Lachlan looking up at Claudia through teary eyes.

How could a child hold grudges against their own mother especially when they saw them regretful?

Despite being left with some lingering fear from what happened last time, Claudia’s remorseful appearance softened little Nora’s heart immediately.

Upon seeing this scene, Lachlan’s face turned incredibly ugly!All rights © NôvelDrama.Org.

“Bastard!”

Claudia knew he wouldn’t be swayed and yet she used Nora as a breaking point?
