Find Me In Your Labyrinth novel Chapter 1576

Emily blurted out immediately, "No, Kya isn't his kid."

"Then whose kid is she?"

With a stone-cold face, Emily answered, "I was raped when studying abroad in Oakdale City, and Kya was born there."

Shawn looked at Emily in shock. He suddenly squatted down, bursting into tears, "Emily, I'm so sorry, I really am. You've had to bear so much suffering!"

Listening to Shawn's crying, Emily felt a pang of pain in her heart and turned to look out the window.

As a kid, she saw her dad as a mountain, tall and mighty. She admired him, loved him, and thought he would always protect her.

But over time, that mountain had long since collapsed, no longer resembling its former self.

Returning home today, she barely recognized him. He had aged considerably. He looked poor and miserable, and he reminded her of the old clock abandoned in the yard when she was a kid, on the verge of decay.

But should she feel pity for him?

If he hadn't gambled, they wouldn't be in so much debt, he wouldn't have had to sell the old house, and she would've had a home.

They could've been a happy family. Despite the huge gap between her and Charlie, she could've pursued him with courage and determination.

But now, she didn't have the courage to approach Charlie anymore. With no support behind her, only endless pressure, how could she possibly date him?

She had always known that her dad would show up sooner or later. He was like a ticking time bomb, ready to explode and ruin everything she had.

And now, he had shown up.

For some reason, Emily felt relieved despite her sadness.

Maybe because she had been worried for too long, she couldn't hold on any longer.
