Chapter 149 A Resentful Father
Even if it meant getting hurt herself, she was determined to give Joaquin a good thrashing.
“You…” Astonishment flashed across Julius‘ eyes.
Joaquin, on the other hand, was laughing even harder. “Hahaha… Girl, you really want to hit me, don’t you? But why?”
“No reason, really. I just thought you deserved a beating,” Quinn bluntly stated.
Joaquin’s eyes slightly darkened. “Is it because of Julius?”
“So what if it is?” she said.
“What if I told you that not even the Whitethorn family’s legal team could save you?” Joaquin threatened. “Even though Julius is in charge of the Whitethorn family now, don’t forget, I’m still his father. His position as the head of the Whitethorn family may not be as secure as he thinks!”
Julius wore a solemn look. “If you dare lay a hand on her, I won’t let you off the hook!”
It was just a simple threat, yet Joaquin understood that his son was willing to go all out to fulfill it.
“Is she really worth it?” Joaquin asked, raising an eyebrow.
“She is,” Julius stated without a hint of hesitation.
In a fleeting moment, Joaquin saw a reflection of his younger self in his son’s face.
“You are my son, indeed.” Joaquin laughed. “But have you ever thought, Julius, that as my son, your fate might mirror mine? Even if you truly fall in love with this woman, there will come a day when she’ll discard you, just like trash!”
Julius‘ expression drastically changed.
Meanwhile, Joaquin continued, as if he was muttering a curse.
“This woman, even if she cares for you now, would she still love you once she discovers the real you? If she knew how dark and twisted you are, she’d probably steer clear of you! You can never attain love, so you shouldn’t harbor feelings for this woman from the start. You shouldn’t indulge in fantasies, or they will result in your downfall…”
“Enough!” Once again, Quinn rushed up to Joaquin, seizing him by the collar. “You’re his father, how could you speak of him like that?”
“It’s precisely because I am his father that I know better than anyone that a child like him simply doesn’t deserve love!” The smile on Joaquin’s face was twisted. “In your case, even if you care about him now, there will come a day when you’ll abandon him. He is destined to be forsaken!”
Julius body froze, each word from his father sounding incredibly jarring, so much so that it made him
nauseous.
However, he didn’t mind it, as he was already past the age of caring.
Would her beautiful eyes show disgust when they look at me again?
