Daddy the Miracle Medic (Lachlan and Miranda) novel Chapter 178

Chapter 178 Using Child as a Breakthrough Point

In the afternoon, when Lachlan went to pick up Nora, he saw that her homeroom teacher had been replaced by another young female teacher.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."
