Chapter 246 Incredibly Foolish. 

Calista’s smile was somewhat frosty. “It’s because they could return to Harvey’s side and because he is wealthier and more influential than you. It’s as simple as that.” 

Benedict thought about Yelena’s character, and it was evident that she was indeed competitive. Perhaps, just as Callie had suggested, it was Harvey who had previously rejected her. Since Harvey showed interest, Yelena naturally sought to rise to the occasion. 

What about Quincy? Benedict’s gaze was filled with complexity. Even though Quincy was not his biological daughter, she was the girl he had favored for over a decade. The one at fault was Yelena, so it was difficult for him to sever his feelings for Quincy in a short span of time. 

Thus, he asked a question that, in Calista’s view, was incredibly foolish. “Do you think… Will Quincy come back?” 

Finally, Calista couldn’t help but laugh. 

Her laughter was chilling, her gaze gradually sharpening. 

Observing Benedict, who was deeply tormented and utterly disoriented, she asked slowly, “Are you serious?” 

Cupping a cup 

in her hands that she hadn’t taken a single sip from, she inquired in a slow, surprised tone, “Do you get a kick out of raising someone else’s child? Is that why you want to continue?” 

Though Calista hadn’t uttered a single harsh word, her voice and demeanor exuded an air of ridicule, which finally brought Benedict to his senses and left him a bit shaken with retrospective fear. What have I just said? I can’t believe I have the audacity to say such things in front of Callie. 

Calista stared at him coldly. Outside, the sun shone brightly, but inside the room, it felt as if ice had enveloped everything. 

“Now, I finally understand why Grandma and Grandpa chose to live in the mountains rather than face you.” Calista sneered, “Both of them were dominant throughout their lives, and that’s probably why your ended up being so weak. Their biggest mistake in life was raising you to be too naive, and by the time they realized it, it was already too late. You know, I really pity you. Would you dare to repeat those words at their graves?” 

Benedict paled as he stared at her, dumbfounded. Isn’t it human nature to feel this way? I’d feel attached even if I was raising a dog, much less a daughter I thought was mine for years. How could I just let go so easily? 

It seemed as if Calista understood Benedict’s thoughts and sneered, “If you’d put a little more thought into it, you’d realize what your standing is in Quincy’s heart. Yes, she’s very obedient in front of you, and you like that. However, have you considered this? If Yelena knew from the start whose child Quincy was, and she hadn’t initially planned to reurite Quincy with her biological family, why has she suddenly changed 

her mind now?” 

Benedict understood what Calista meant. His lips turned pale instantly. 

Calista continued ruthlessly, “It’s because Quincy had discovered her true identity and realized she was the sole heiress of the Wolford family. She insisted that Yelena take her to reunite her with her true father. In

Chapter 246 Incredibly Foolish 

83 

“Since your divorce, has Quincy ever called you? Could Yelena really manipulate Quincy? If you’re making up such excuses for her, aren’t you being a bit too naive? Is it so hard to face the truth? The reality is that you’ve been manipulated by a woman for eighteen years. The daughter you’ve painstakingly raised and dearly loved doesn’t care about you one bit!” 

“No!” Benedict was finally in despair! He couldn’t believe he failed so miserably in life. However, the harsh reality was right in front of his eyes, bloody and brutally laid bare for him to see!. 

“Dad, I must say, your kindness would be fitting for an ordinary household. However, in your current position, such kindness will be your downfall. From the moment you stubbornly decided to take responsibility for Yelena, Grandpa and Grandma lost all hope in you. They foresaw your downfall, yet you were too stubborn, only trusting what you could see with your own eyes. They were deeply disappointed in you, so they retreated to the mountains, preferring to be out of sight, out of mind. Even I’m quite disappointed in you, too.” Calista’s words finally made Benedict calm down but also left him feeling dispirited. 

He closed his eyes, struggling to speak. “Humans are emotional creatures. I’m just having a hard time accepting it at first. You’re right. I was naive to think so highly of everyone. If I continue like this, it’ll be the death of me!” 

“You better remember the words you’re uttering now. Remember how, compared to your reluctant nostalgia, Quincy cheerfully and swiftly took all her belongings away. She doesn’t miss you.” These words from Calista finally made Benedict’s gaze grow steadily colder. 

After all those years, it seemed he had truly cherished the wrong person. He finally realized Quincy was no different from Yelena! 

Moreover, he understood he couldn’t continue being so naive

Concurrently, after receiving the photo and having a discussion with Kallum, Kyven shockingly disregarded his brotherly bond and was determined to withdraw his investment! 

Harvey assumed that Kyven’s decision to withdraw the investment was due to Yelena. Thus, he brought up the excuse that they had agreed on earlier and relayed it to Kyven. “Whether Yelena gets divorced or not has nothing to do with me! Since I’ve already agreed with you to adopt Kieran, I won’t go back on my 

word.” 

Like Harvey, Kyven was fat. At that moment, Kyven patted his own belly, and with a cold chuckle, he asked, “Do you think I’m stupid?”
