Chapter 259: Apologize to Me
Chapter 259
Huang Duo Duo stood there in shock, holding her cheek as she looked at Li Man. Her expression of disbelief transformed into resentment.
"How dare you hit me? Who do you think you are? I\'ll go tell Dad and have him beat you to death!" Huang Duo Duo angrily shouted.
Initially, Li Man felt a slight pang of guilt for slapping her daughter. However, upon hearing her daughter\'s words, that sliver of guilt vanished. She stared at her daughter with a piercing gaze and angrily retorted, "Go ahead, let your dad hit me! If you have the guts, go tell your dad right now and have him come beat me!"
Huang Duo Duo was silenced by Li Man\'s imposing presence. She glared at her, a look of defiance on her face, but she dared not speak another word.
Li Man sneered. "You\'re still thinking about your dad? Your dad has already run away, and you\'re still clinging to him. Let me tell you, Huang Duo Duo, whether you like it or not, if you ever dare to speak to me in that tone again, I won\'t even let you go to school. If you have the ability, go earn your own money!"
"Do you think ten thousand yuan is nothing? But do you know how many people can\'t even earn ten thousand yuan in a month?"
Huang Duo Duo stared at Li Man, her face filled with grievances. Tears the size of soybeans rolled down her cheeks, one after another.
She bit her lip and sobbed softly.
Li Man felt no pity for her and continued, "I can afford to pay for the ten thousand yuan. If you damaged your classmate\'s phone, I can compensate for it. But today, Huang Duo Duo, you must apologize to me. Otherwise, from now on, I won\'t bother with you anymore, and I won\'t give you a single penny!"
In truth, Li Man was only trying to scare her daughter. Even if her daughter was misbehaving, she couldn\'t abandon her because she was still a minor.
Huang Duo Duo stubbornly bit her lower lip, her tears flowing incessantly, but she remained silent.
Li Man sternly said, "I don\'t have time to waste with you. I\'ll count to three, and if you still don\'t apologize, then for the rest of my life, I won\'t have anything to do with you. If you think you\'re capable, go earn your own money to support yourself. I\'d like to see if you can earn ten thousand yuan in a month!"
After saying that, Li Man began to count, "One... Two..."
Huang Duo Duo grew increasingly anxious, her tears falling even more fiercely, but she still refused to apologize.
"Three!"
Finally, Li Man shouted the last number, but Huang Duo Duo still refused to apologize.
Disappointed, Li Man looked at her daughter, wondering why she had suddenly changed like this.
"Fine, Huang Duo Duo, you\'re obstinate. From today onwards, no matter what happens, don\'t ever call me again. I\'ll pretend I don\'t have a daughter like you!"
Leaving behind those harsh words, Li Man resolutely turned and walked away.
As she watched Li Man\'s figure recede into the distance, a sense of panic flashed in Huang Duo Duo\'s eyes. Her father\'s whereabouts were unknown, and if her mother really didn\'t want her anymore, what would she do?
With that thought, Huang Duo Duo hastily called out, "Mom!"
Li Man\'s footsteps paused for a moment, but she steeled herself and continued walking forward.
Huang Duo Duo was in a panic and quickly shouted, "Mom... I\'m sorry, I apologize to you. Please don\'t ignore me. I know I was wrong. Please don\'t leave..."
Li Man finally stopped in her tracks, tears uncontrollably streaming down her face. She was truly afraid, afraid that her daughter would never apologize to her.
It seemed like she had no other options left.
"Mom!"
Huang Duo Duo ran forward and tightly embraced Li Man, crying, "Mom, please forgive me. I really know I was wrong. Please don\'t abandon me..."
