Chapter 180
Andy seemed to pity Dexter.
But it definitely did not look like all Andy felt for Dexter was fatherly love. There were other complex emotions mixed in as well in his gaze.
Below the photo, my mother had written a note that read: "Number 0’s emotions seem more turbulent than Sophia’s. It appears as if he had a tendency toward violence and abuse, but this cannot be confirmed at the moment. Further observation is required."
My head suddenly ached horrible and I heard a voice in my head, "Sophia, you can’t have your own children."
"I’m really sorry, Sophia. But your genes and Dexter’s aren’t..."
"Sherry, what are you saying to the child?"
I could hear my mom’s guilty voice and my dad’s rebuke in my mind. Then, it was followed by the sound of things being packed into suitcases.
"Don’t affect her negatively with your emotions. Just act normal and don’t make it obvious that something is amiss. I’m going to put our things in the car first. After attending the ceremony at the orphanage today, we’ll leave Huma."
My mom sobbed and hugged me rather tightly, "Sophia, I’m so sorry. I wasn’t good enough for you."
"We don’t have much time. He has spies everywhere, we need to go as soon as we can," my dad urged.
"Have you given the police the documents and evidence you’ve compiled?" my mom asked, sounding fearful.
