Betrayed and Gone My Hockey Husband’s Regret novel Chapter 14

Chapter 14 

Chapter 14 

The air froze with heaviness as the invisible tension struck us like a lightning bolt, making Leo look at Melody. His disappointment was evident from his cold gaze, blaming her for 

Zoe’s sadness. 

Disturbed by this silent blaming, Melody looked at me absent–mindedly, as if it was my fault that Zoe uttered such heartbreaking words. 

Ignoring those failed parents, I glanced at Zoe’s teary face as he sniffled, trying to appear brave despite his young age. His desolation actually made me feel a bit distressed. 

After all, I was a daughter who had yearned to feel her parents‘ love for a long time 

Every minute I stayed there, I felt like I couldn’t breathe, so I immediately left with my daughter. But Jane held Leo’s hand tightly and looked at me with pleading eyes. 

WT…I tried to hold back the curse words that came out of my mouth. That was not what a graceful mother should do. 

I smiled gently, pried Jane’s hand away, and whispered, “Now we should go home, baby.” 

Melody’s eyes almost pierced through me, but she didn’t say anything finally. 

I grabbed Jane’s hand and we both walked towards our Range Rover, Echo opened the door for us and helped Jane to sit. 

After getting seated, I rolled down the window as the driver ignited the engine, taking one last look at Leo’s family. A disdainful smile stretching my lips mirrored my bitterness as I 

swore. 

“Game on.” 

In the car. 

Jane cuddled i 

to me and said, 

Chapter 14 

“Uncle Leo is so handsome, mommy, Can he be my dad?” 

The mobile from my hand slipped as I nearly choked, taken aback by my little girl’s wish. Even after everything I had done for her, she was just an innocent girl who yearned to have 

af 

father in her life. It was indeed a truth that I would never be able to fill the void of 

emptiness in her heart. 

Blinking my eyes repeatedly, I gasped for air and spoke with great difficulty, 

“B–but I don’t like him, Jane.” 

Being a gentle soul, Jane sensed my unease. She immediately cupped my face and spoke, 

“If mommy doesn’t like him, then I don’t like him either. 

I smiled fondly and shook my head. It would be nice if that were the case, but I know Jane. 

Next morning, I decided to drop Jane at school in person. I had learned my lesson the hard way after yesterday’s incident. 

Before the kids could officially start school, the teacher gave me the notice of a parent 

meeting. 

Holding my daughter’s hand, I walked inside the hall where the meeting was held, only to meet stubborn Zoe. He had already saved a seat for Jane, 

Zoe stared at Jane silently but didn’t say anything. Perhaps he was a little embarrassed by what happened last time. 

Jane was playing with the bow on her skirt out of boredom and said sincerely, “Are you inviting me to sit with you? Okay, I agree.” Then she took Zoe’s hand and sat down steadily. 

Leo and I were left and stared at each other awkwardly, which meant we had to sit together, even though we had just finished a war without gunpowder. 

“Ma’am, please take a seat.” Leo sat down first and wiped the water drops off the chair for 

1. me. 

How hypocritical.
