Starting with A Divorce Chapter 551
Chapter 551 Being Not Cold-hearted Enough
“Do you really think of me as your daughter? Or am I just a tool that you can use?” Kaitlin said with
tearful eyes.
Mrs. Baldry was moved by her words, but when she heard the child babbling, she had to harden her
heart and said, ’Kaitlin, what makes you think so? Don’t you know how much I love you? I’ve never let
you suffer any grievances since you were a child. This is the only time. It would be best if you protected
him this time. You are his aunt, after all.”
Kaitlin was disappointed. Actually, Mrs. Baldry’s answer was exactly the same as she had imagined.
She continued in a trembling voice, ‘Would you feel sorry for me if I told you that I didn’t live a good life
in the mental hospital at all?”
Mrs. Baldry took Kaitlin by her arm with a frown and said, “You silly girl, you’re from the Baldry family.
Your brother had told them to take good care of you before you went there. How could they treat you
badly?”
Kaitlin held back her trembling shoulders and shook off her hand violently. “Then why did I end up
being injured all over?”
She rolled up her sleeves. She had never allowed anyone to see the scars in the past few days.
But now she rolled up her sleeves to show them to Mrs. Baldry.
On her arms were scars caused by whipping or scratching.
Mrs. Baldry was shocked. She cared about Kaitlin as much as the child. She was her daughter, after
all.
Holding on to her arm, Mrs. Baldry felt sorry for her. “What… what’s going on?”
Kaitlin sighed, “I was beaten in the hospital by the doctors and nurses. They often beat and scolded us,
not even treating us patients as human beings. And if we fought back, we’d be forced to wear the
constricted outfit. Do you know what it is? It’s a set of clothes that tie our hands and feet up, and then
we could only eat and shit on the bed. It made me feel like I was not a person. I said once that I was
wronged, but I ended up being tied up for a whole week. Do you know what it feels like? It’s like I’m
abandoned by the whole world. Mom, when confined in the outfit, I felt like I’ve never known who you
really are.”
Mrs. Baldry lowered her head with a trace of guilt in her eyes. “I know how you feel.”
“No! You’ll never know! When I was suffering, you played cards or cared for your pregnant daughter-in-
law! All you think about is your grandson!” sneered Kaitlin.
She could never forgive Mrs. Baldry as well as Kaliyah.
What she said about the mental hospital was true but just a part of the truth.
“So, you’re blaming me?” Mrs. Baldry frowned slightly.
Kaitlin wiped the tears from her face and said coldly, “No, I don’t blame you.
I just hope you will think more about me in the future.”
Mrs. Baldry’s face turned livid, but she turned to look at the child with a softer face.
Kaliyah glanced at Kaitlin smugly, as if she wasn’t the one who humbly tried to make peace with Kaitlin
just now.
“I will.” Mrs. Baldry turned her back to Kaitlin and stroked the child.
Kaitlin returned to her bedroom. She was angry at the tear stains on her face. She was not used to
talking to her mother like this.
As Kaliyah was about to go upstairs with the child in her arms, Mrs. Baldry glanced at the child with a
complicated expression.
Kaitlin felt painful and had nightmares every night. Nobody but Mrs. Baldry was willing to stay with her.
She had tried her best to become cold-hearted, but it was not enough.
In the Salter family
Jaydan had been busy with the preparations that he must do to send his daughter abroad.
He had asked many old friends abroad for help.
He planned to let Lainey go abroad first when everything was ready, and then he would transfer his
property.
Lainey didn’t know anything about it was not in the mood to know about it.
All she hoped was her father could approve of Roman and allow them to be together.
Normally, Lainey would not be so anxious.
But it was different this time, for she could feel her father’s stubbornness.
If she did not do anything now,
It would be more difficult forthem to deal with it.
“Crying, making a fuss, or committing suicide?” she thought.
Biting her lips, she pondered whether her father could be convinced or not if she tried these ways.
While thinking, she heard a familiar knock on the door.
She hurried to open the door.
It was Roman. He walked in with an insulated lunch box in his hand and said dotingly, “Sweetie, are
you hungry? I’ve made dinner for you. It’s your favorite braised pork ribs.”
But Lainey was not in the mood.
Pretending to be mad at him, she snorted and walked to the living room without even looking at him.
Roman hastened to follow her pace in confusion. “What’s wrong, sweetie? Who makes you upset?”
She stole a glance at him, sat upright, and said meaningfully, “I can’t figure out who’s able to upset me.
Why don’t you take a guess?”
Roman was speechless.
He put the box on the tea table and squatted in front of her, looking at her pitifully. “Darling, you know
I’m not smart enough. Why don’t you give me a hint?”
Lainey raised her finger to poke his forehead grumpily. ‘You’re telling the truth.”
Roman nodded and put on an innocent smile.
Lainey widened her eyes and growled, “How can you be smiling? You’d better figure out how to calm
my dad down. It’s been a while. We can’t keep it like this forever, can we?”
Roman blinked at her teasingly. “Honey, I’ve squeezed my time to see you every day. You can’t live
without me for a second, can you?”
Lainey threw the pillow next to her at him. “I’m talking about something serious. How can you be in the
mood to make fun of me?”
Roman took the pillow away and put it back.
Staring at her aggrieved face, Roman said patiently, ‘Sorry, I was wrong. Don’t worry. I will figure it out
tomorrow.”
The time ticked on.
The time for Jaydan to come back was drawing near. In order to put himself in a strong position in the
negotiations with Jaydan in the future, Roman comforted Lainey and left quickly.
As soon as he left, Jaydan came back home.
Lainey quickly put on a cold expression and sat quietly on the sofa to watch TV.
Jaydan smelled the odor of meat and asked casually, “What’s the dinner the hotel made for you
today?”
Lainey replied without hesitation, “Braised pork ribs.”
Jaydan paused and frowned with a disapproving expression. “How can they make such greasy food for
you? You’re in recovery. You should eat bland food.”
Unable to stand his nagging, she quickly replied, “Fine, I know. Dad, please change the topic.”
Jaydan glared at her and walked towards the right side. “Come to the study with me.”
