Chapter 1198: Chapter 1177: Not Speaking Means You Agree? Chapter 1198: Chapter 1177: Not Speaking Means You Agree? “Mommy, Tanya wants to honor you, you should totally approve and give a thumbs up!”

Tanya did not agree with her mommy’s reaction at all, “If you won’t find a man for our family, then I will have to do it!”

In the end, Tanya sighed heavily, lamenting that there were no reliable men these days. Even her dad, a sincere man like that, still had an ex-wife who was a troublemaker and wanted to remarry. It seemed really hard to find a reliable man who would be good to her mommy!

“Tanya, if you dare find a man, Mommy will disown you, and let the man take you instead!”

Maya looked at her little girl somewhat speechlessly. Just as the kind of father there was, there was the kind of daughter. Finding an unreliable man had resulted in an unreliable daughter; Maya felt that she was doomed in this life. However, looking at the soft little face that had been reliant on her for so many years, her heart still felt sweet.

Without her, she didn’t know how she would have made it through these years!

“Mommy, I know you wouldn’t bear to disown me. If you really could, you wouldn’t have found a man you don’t like just to put him on my birth certificate and make him my daddy. I know Mommy loves me the most, that’s why you cannot bear to let me go. But, Mommy, did you know that uncle who helped us just now?”

Tanya always felt that the uncle was not only strange but also strangely familiar, though she could not pinpoint why. She was just inexplicably interested in him.

“Yes, he was a friend of Mommy’s from before!”

The daughter, already six years old and mature beyond her years, seemed to understand everything. Saying that she didn’t know Graham Stones was simply impossible.

“Boyfriend?”

Maya: “…”

This automatic reaction was like she had been wound up, instantly adding a “boy” into it.

“No response means you agree!”

Before Maya could answer, the little girl concluded directly, her large eyes fluttering, “Seeing your expression, I’ll take that as a yes. Mommy, could he be my biological daddy?”

She had two daddies, her biological daddy and the one acknowledged on the birth certificate.

“Don’t worry, Mommy, even if he is my bio dad, as long as you don’t agree, I will absolutely ignore him!”

In the matter of daddy and mommy, Tanya always supported her mommy. Although deep down she also hoped to enjoy a harmonious family like all other normal families, she knew she had no choice.

“Thank you, baby, for understanding!”

Maya bent down and kissed her daughter’s head, her lips curling into a bitter smile, “When Tanya grows up and the time is right, I will tell you who your daddy is. I won’t let you be confused about whose child you are. But that is limited to just knowing. Your daddy might already be married to another auntie, or they might have a baby as cute as you. Even if Tanya wants her biological daddy, we can’t break up someone else’s family!”

Correct values, Maya never tired of instilling them. Over the years, she had never followed Graham Stone’s information, just so she could forget him as soon as possible. Given his character back then, having a fun-loving life until this age, he probably settled down, got married, and had children.

Thinking this, she somewhat regretted appearing too early in his life, not during the age he would marry, but the age when he was still fond of playing!

Only today did Maya realize that deep down, she shared the same blood as many foolish women!

She still harbored completely unrealistic fantasies about such a man.

“Mommy, maybe it’s better if you don’t let me know who my daddy is,” Tanya murmured, her charming voice dipping in disappointment. “Such a heartless daddy, just like a modern-day Samuel Stones. I’m afraid if I knew, I might just grab an axe and go chop her down!”

Maya: “…”

Graham Stones was Samuel Stones?

Cough cough, Samuel Stones wasn’t rich or powerful like Graham Stones. If Graham heard this comparison, he probably would wake up from his sleep fuming!

This time returning to Andras City, Maya had decided to stay in Andras City. She had gone abroad back in the day because she got pregnant with the little girl, and now that her child had grown up, it was time to return home, as trees grow tall and leaves return to their roots!

That man lived in Corda City, and to avoid meeting him again, she specifically chose to stay in Andras City. Yet, against all odds, they still met.

It seemed like such a coincidence must be the work of fate, letting them meet just this once more, Maya thought.

In the following time, Maya successfully got a job at Allure International as a scriptwriter. Back in the country, she had also arranged for her child to attend a nearby school.

In the time that followed, Maya never bumped into Graham Stones again. She figured he must’ve returned to Corda City, because after their reunion brought a slight emotional disturbance, everything went back to the starting point—her raising the child alone, and heading to work alone.

The only headache was that when she had Tanya, being abroad meant she couldn’t register her in the local system, so she registered under the name of her doctor, Tanya’s godfather, who had just divorced his wife and took pity on her struggling alone with a child.

But now that Tanya had grown up, they were back home, and naturally, the registration needed to be transferred to her own name. However, the procedures abroad turned out to be much more cumbersome than those at home.

Despite the hassle, for the sake of her child, she had to make several trips.

Unfortunately, she dreaded flying the most. While others suffered from motion sickness in cars, she suffered in airplanes, especially during long international flights.

Once on the airplane, Maya immediately tried to sleep. As soon as she closed her eyes, the person in the seat next to hers boarded. Maya, who typically didn’t care who sat beside her, kept her eyes shut, uninterested in seeing who she’d be spending the next several hours with on the flight.

“Excuse me, sir, you are in my seat. Could you have mistaken your seat?!” she said.

Only when a polite and considerate voice reached her ears did Maya think to open her eyes and see who was sitting next to her. Before she knew it, the thought of getting some sleep on the plane to ease her air sickness flew out the window…

“Sir, my seat is actually that one across,” the man said, his voice deep and familiar, pointing with his fingers and speaking softly, “My girlfriend, she gets air sick. It’d be hard to take care of her from over there; could you please switch seats with me?”

The man standing before him, upon hearing that his neighbor suffered from air sickness, agreed to switch seats within minutes.

“Thank you!”

It wasn’t until the man’s clear “Thank you” reached Maya’s ears that she was certain. The man who had suddenly appeared at her side, claiming to care for his air-sick girlfriend, was Graham Stones.

“How… how is it you?”
