The Rewritten Love: A Second Beginning (Madelyn) novel Chapter 563

The child's gaze was innocent and naive. Ethan felt a jolt in his heart when he lowered his head to meet the child's eyes. With a glance, it reminded him of the painful memories from his childhood. Ethan's complexion was even more unpleasant than expected, and his demeanor became icy.

Evelyn gave a signal to Marta. Understanding the look, Marta stepped forward and picked up the child. "Mr. Arnold Jr., I'll take you to play with toys. Mr. Arnold has important matters to discuss."

The child cried and reached out to Ethan, saying, "I want Daddy to hold me."

Ethan gave the child an icy glance with a cold demeanor. Then, he walked away and sat down on a nearby sofa.

Donna maintained a smile and never shifted her gaze away from him. The child cried, wanting to come down. Then, he immediately ran over to Donna. She reached out and placed the child on her lap. The child clung to her neck with both hands, tearfully expressing his sorrow, "Mommy, why doesn't Daddy like me? Did I do something wrong? You said that Daddy will like me as long as I'm obedient. However, Daddy refused to hold me."

His teardrops suddenly fell; his crying was indeed heart-wrenching. Donna wiped away the tears from the child's face and said, "Daddy doesn't dislike you, Robin. Be good, okay? Play with Aunt Marta for a little while. We'll come play with you once we finish talking."

"Okay." The child nodded sensibly.

As Marta led the child away, he turned back to give a pitiful look to Ethan, who was sitting on the sofa with a cold and distant expression.

Ethan's gaze remained cold as he stared at Donna. His voice was as chilly as ever when he stated with unwavering determination, "I won't acknowledge this child."
