Don't Annoy My Boss Daddy novel Chapter 40

I looked at Vaughn mockingly and deliberately said these words to him. Vaughn was usually a proud man and thought that he was quite capable. Now when he heard that I said Brandon was far better than him, his expression suddenly became ugly.

Men were animals with strong self-esteem, especially when compared with someone else. Compared with Brandon, Vaughn was not at the same level in terms of appearance or wealth. He was just a small manager in one of Brandon's filiale. How could he compare with him?

"Hollie, I know you're be angry with me. That's fine, but do you know what kind of person Sutton is? Do you know how many women he has? A man like him would never be with you. Don't be stupid."

Vaughn pretended to be sincere and tried to persuade me.

The look of concern on his face looked ridiculous to me. With a sarcastic sneer on my face, I couldn't help but retort coldly. "No matter what, he's still better than you. Even if there are countless women around him, I believe he has enough dignity to mess around with my best friend. He has common courtesy, unlike some other shameless people I could name!"

My words had implications. Of course, Vaughn could tell that I was insulting him, and my words were very unpleasant.

The expression on his face froze. He looked at me with anger in his eyes. My words had completely angered him.

"Hollie, don't go too far. It's my fault that I betrayed our relationship, but do you have to hold it over me all the time?"

Vaughn's voice became louder. Because there were very few people on the road at night, he did not have to worry that others would hear our conversation.

"Since you know that you betrayed me, then don't bother me anymore. Didn't you tell me that you and Laney really love each other? Then why are you still looking for me?"

I remembered clearly that when I cancelled the wedding to let them be together, Vaughn had thanked me for it. At the time, his words had hurt me deeply, so I was already being polite when I said these words. He did not experience the pain I did at the time. How could he accuse me of not letting it go?

Vaughn looked at me and hesitated, and the anger on his face quickly disappeared. After a long time, he looked up at my eyes and said seriously, "Hollie, I know it was my fault. I hurt you. But when we were separated, I realised that the person I loved in my heart was not Laney but you. I didn't know why I did that thing back then. I'm sorry..."

Vaughn's tone was very serious and his apology was very sincere, but what he said made me sneer.

Why didn't he remember that he loved me when he slept with Laney? They had been cheating behind my back for so many years. They even had a kid together while I was kept in the dark. I had always thought that Laney had the child with some other man, and had always tried to avoid the topic of his father around her in order to not hurt her.

But I didn't expect that the child's father was Vaughn, my former fiance. Everything was so ridiculous. When I found out the truth, I felt that I was the most ridiculous and pathetic woman in the world.

"It's too late to apologise now. Even if you apologise, it's useless. I'm leaving. Please don't pester me!"

His apology didn't cause any ripples in my heart. I didn't have any impulse to forgive him. On the contrary, I just felt that the whole situation was ridiculous.

I turned around to leave, but Vaughn held me tightly from behind.

Feeling his touch, I panicked, followed by anger and disgust. This man dared to hug me!
