“Kate, these days, cleft palates are easy to fix. Our little girl’s still going to grow up to be a beautiful princess, everyone’s darling.”
“Look, I know you’re hurt having a baby with a cleft palate, but she’s still your daughter. Accepting it and treating her now will make all the difference, and money’s not a problem for us.”
Dan thought he had it all worked out: using my money to fix his child and turn my son against me, draining me dry.
“This isn’t my baby. If you want her treated, then pay for it yourself.”
Dan’s face twisted as he struggled to hold back. Then he looked at me knowingly.
“So, you’re upset I came here with Sophie?”
“Kate, I had no idea she’d be here. We just ran into each other. Sophie, it’s better if you go. You know Kate will get jealous.”
Dan tried his old sweet-talking tricks, and the sight of him made me sick. Sophie opened her mouth to speak, but Dan’s glare silenced her. She went, sulking.
