I Left My Husband and Daughter Now He’s a Blind Widower Chapter 04

I had been careless.

Kael had an unnervingly sharp nose and a memory like a steel trap.

At this critical moment, I had no choice but to play dumb.

I asked him with a perfectly straight face, “Maybe it’s just the hair conditioner I bought for $2.99 online. Want the link?”

Kael was speechless.

He went back to his blank expression and said coldly, “No, thanks.”

It made sense. Kael was a different man now.

He probably wouldn’t bother with cheap online products.

…

When I got home, I scrolled through job listings as usual.

Ian gave me a large sum of money every month, but I couldn’t accept it.

I knew full well that Ian had only agreed to date me because I copied the female lead’s personality—that of a tough, innocent girl.

He’d had a huge fight with his first love, the real female lead, and she’d left the country in anger.

My mission was to imitate her and take her place as his girlfriend.

So all this time, I’d rarely taken Ian’s money and had kept my own job.

I’d quit a few days earlier and desperately needed a new one.

Just as I was thinking, a local job posting popped up.

It was for a pediatric nutritionist.

The description read: [Looking after a two-year-old child, responsible for all daily meals. The child is an extremely picky eater; the applicant must be patient.]

I happened to have a nutritionist certificate.

Seeing the high salary and generous benefits listed, I sent in my application right away.

Back when I first decided to get that nutritionist certification, it was because the system had told me to use cooking to win Ian over.

I practiced my culinary skills so diligently that in the end, I ended up passing the nutritionist exam.

Two days later, I was invited for an interview.

The interviewer asked many professional questions, and when I answered them all correctly, he finally nodded.

He then gave me an address for the final interview.

I marveled at how strict the process was and took a taxi there.

When I reached the gated community, a guard personally led me inside.

But as I followed the increasingly familiar route, I slowly sank into deep thought.

This was the Paulson Estate, wasn’t it?

Before I could finish thinking, the guard opened the door.

I looked up and saw Kael, Ann, and two servants inside the house.

Kael and Ann sat facing each other, clearly in the middle of a standoff.

A servant held out a small bowl and coaxed gently, “Little miss, just one bite?”

Ann slapped the bowl away and frowned, “No!”

The bowl crashed to the floor, food spilling everywhere.

Kael’s face turned cold for once. “Ann Paulson, you’ll go hungry if you don’t eat.”

Ann wasn’t scared at all. She was so upset that she spoke in full sentences, “Mommy’s here, she doesn’t yell at me!”

The servants all fell silent at her words.

Kael’s face went blank for a second at the word “Mommy,” then he sneered, “Mommy doesn’t want you.”

Ann’s eyes widened and she shot back defiantly, “Mommy doesn’t want you either!”

“You’re… you’re useless. Mommy’s hurt in the hospital…”

Kael’s eyes reddened as his own daughter talked back to him.

His blank gaze trembled as he closed his eyes, sharp pain shooting through his blind eyes again.

But not a single tear fell.

He’d cried all his tears out the day he found that medical report.
