My Daughter Fell to Her Knees Just to Save MeChapter 1
After six years of hiding under a secret identity in an ultra-classified unit, my long-awaited request for family visitation was finally approved.
I arrived at my wife’s office building, heart pounding with excitement, ready to surprise her.
But just as I parked the car, the sight before me made my blood run cold.
My daughter, who should’ve been in school, stood timidly before a young man clutching a little boy’s hand.
He pointed at her face, hurling insults nonstop.
Then, without warning, he raised his hand and slapped her hard across the cheek, shouting for her to kneel and apologize.
I watched as she slowly knelt in humiliation. My rage exploded.
I stormed over and landed a slap across the man’s face.
My daughter’s face turned pale with shock. Once she regained her senses, she clutched my arm, her voice trembling.
"Uncle, you have to go! You hit my mom’s assistant. She won’t let you go.”
I clenched my fists, struggling to hold back the fury in my chest.
“He’s just your mom’s assistant. What gives him the right to make you kneel and apologize?”
She hadn’t even cried from that cruel slap, but now her eyes turned red.
But she didn’t say much. She just kept urging me to leave as quickly as possible.
Before I could move, that man got up and blocked my path, his tone dripping with arrogance.
“Kid, you’re not going anywhere today!”
“In the capital, our President Jones is the sky. You hit me; might as well say you’ve torn the sky apart!”
I took a deep breath and called my wife.
“I heard from your assistant that you’re the sky in the capital. Then today, I’ll tear the sky apart myself.”
——
Right now, I only want to ask Kylie Jones one thing.
In those six years, how had she raised our daughter to allow her assistant to lay hands on her like that?
“I don’t care who you are or how you got my number.”
Her voice on the other end was cold as ice.
“Just for that threat alone, no one can save you.”
The call cut off the next second, so fast I didn’t even get the chance to speak.
I stood there, stunned, still clutching the phone.
She didn’t recognize my voice. She didn’t even recognize my number.
This was my old number from six years ago. She hadn’t even saved it.
Six years of longing, six years of waiting, shattered in an instant.
As the call ended, her assistant sneered beside me.
