Chapter 14 The Hated Mother

Arnav did not intend to reply. "I’m asking you, who are you?" Lesly suddenly had a strong feeling that the child outside the door was her child. His cold and strong attitude was similar to Gavin, that b*stard. "My name is Lesly." After saying that, Lesly was even more nervous. She wondered if Gavin had ever mentioned her name in front of his child. If he had mentioned it, the child might know who she was. But the fact was doomed to disappoint Lesly because Arnav did not know her name. "What are you doing here?" The voice outside the door was as cold and alert as ever. "Did you want to seduce my father?" "No," Lesly retorted. "I came here because I had something to discuss with Gavin. We could not come to an agreement, so he locked me up here." Arnav frowned and immediately realized that this woman had a high position in his father’s heart. Otherwise, Gavin would have driven her away instead of locking her up. "Are you his ex-wife?" Arnav asked after analyzing the relationship. Lesly was shocked and did not answer in time. At this moment, Gavin’s low and cold voice came from outside the door, "Arnav Bolton, did you forget what I just told you?" "I remembered," Arnav replied in an indifferent and emotionless tone. "I’m just curious. Is the woman inside my repulsive mother?" His repulsive... mother. Lesly clenched her hand, and she couldn’t help but take a step back. It turned out that what Gavin said was true. Her child hated her because she had abandoned him. "No." Gavin denied. "You can go back to your room." Arnav refused to leave. "Then who is the woman inside?" Gavin grew impatient. "Arnav, do you want me to lock you up too?" Arnav was not afraid at all. "Go ahead. Anyway, I have never left here since I was a child. It would just be changing cells." Gavin frowned and said no more. He walked over, picked Arnav up, took him forcefully, and threw him back to his bedroom. "It’s very late. Go to sleep!" After saying that, Gavin held the door handle and was about to close it. "Father." Arnav sat on the bed with his head lowered. "Tell me, why didn’t mother want me? Is it because of my illness?" Gavin stopped and lowered his eyes to hide his expression. "No, I’ll tell you when you get older." It was another excuse. Arnav sneered, pulled the quilt, and wrapped himself tightly in it. He turned his back to Gavin and stopped talking. Gavin looked at his son’s curled up back and his eyes darkened. After standing for a while, he gently closed the door. Lesly was Arnav’s biological mother. He couldn’t tell Arnav that because he didn’t know when that woman would disappear again. By then, his hope would be diminished. Such a blow could make Arnav’s condition worsen. Gavin returned to the house that Lesly was in. Hearing the sound of footsteps, Lesly rushed behind the door. "Gavin, are you back?" "It’s me." Gavin walked forward and stood in front of the door. "Lesly, I’m here to tell you that if you dare to tell Arnav about us, I will let you never see him again." Lesly angrily said, "That’s unfair. He is..." "Have you ever thought about fairness when you abandoned Arnav?" Lesly was stunned. Gavin continued, "He missed you so much and hates you so much now." Lesly closed her eyes and said again, "Well, I can promise you that I won’t tell him the truth, but you must also promise me to let me see him and contact him. This is the deal." Gavin agreed, "Alright."
