Returning With A Thousand Favors

Chapter 184

Chapter 184

“Dad went on a business trip again this time, I don’t know when he’ll be back. Moreover, he went even further this time. I can’t even get through to his phone.” His daughter was only in her teens. When she mentioned Brendon, she couldn’t help but look a little dissatisfied.

“Your father’s job is very special. We should understand him. He’s definitely fighting for our people and our country.” The woman rubbed the girl’s head gently.

“I know, but I just feel that although Dad is a hero in many people’s hearts, he’s still my father.

“He helped so many people. He even went to the welfare home to visit orphans without parents.

“But I feel that as his biological daughter, I am living in a single–parent family.” The girl actually admired Brendon very much.

But she was still a child.

Most of all, she hoped that her parents would pay more attention to her and spend more time with her.

“Your father told me that after this mission is over, he will have a long vacation. At that time, he will take us on a trip,” the woman said.

“Really?” When the girl heard this, the unhappiness she had just now instantly dissipated.

“Of course it’s true. When have I ever lied to you?” The woman nodded heavily. Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

“Then I have to think about where I want to go. Dad doesn’t seem to be able to go overseas casually, but there are many fun places in our country. I have to find them!” At this moment, the girl was no

longer in the mood to practice the piano. She immediately found the map on the bookshelf and began to

search for the tourist destination.

On the other end of the video, Marina felt her throat tighten as she watched the interaction between the mother and daughter.

Her hands by her sides were tightly clenched into fists.

Brendon looked at his wife and daughter’s excited expressions and could not help but feel guilty.

After hesitating for a moment, he finally called out, “Lisa.”

“Huh?” The girl on the other end of the video call suddenly raised her head.

The woman immediately looked over.

“Mommy, I think I heard Daddy calling me just now.” The girl looked shocked.

“I think I heard it too.” The woman was also in disbelief.

However, the next moment, the television in front of them suddenly lit up.

On the other end of the video call, Brendon suddenly appeared with a smiling face.

This sudden scene shocked both mother and daughter.

However, Lisa quickly came back to her senses and rushed forward. She shouted in surprise, “Daddy!”

“I just heard that Lisa seems to be badmouthing Daddy.” Brendon deliberately put on a long face.

“Dad, don’t tell me you installed a monitor in our house. Do you know that such behavior is illegal? You actually broke the law knowingly! When you come back, I’ll definitely punish you!” Lisa said seriously.

“Lisa, you’re the one who made the mistake, yet you still want to pin the blame on me. You can’t be quick–witted in such a way.” Brendon smiled helplessly.

“That’s because I have a good father.” Lisa wasn’t afraid at all.

“Why did you suddenly… Are you back? Why aren’t you home since you’re back?” The woman came back to her senses and quickly walked to the

television.

Looking at Brendon on the screen, her eyes turned red again.

“I’m not back yet, but I’ve completed my mission very well this time. Our Captain is very capable, so she rewards us with meeting our family in advance,” Brendon said seriously.

“Did you go with the Captain on this mission?” The woman was a little surprised.

“Yeah.” Brendon nodded.

“That’s really a big wish of yours. For so many years, you’ve been talking about wanting to do another mission with the Captain. Now, your wish has finally been fulfilled,” the woman said with a smile.

“Yeah, that’s why I’m so happy right now.”

“Dad, your mission has been completed. Will you be back soon?” Lisa asked.

“Yes, Daddy will be back soon.” Brendon’s stamina was obviously running out.

Marina, who was standing behind him, immediately supported his body with force.

In this way, he wouldn’t fall straight down.

“Then, Dad, you have to hurry up. I’ll be able to choose a place to travel soon. You can’t stand me up this time!” Lisa’s tone was firm.

“Alright, I… won’t stand you up.” Brendon’s breathing was already starting to slow down. The veins on his hands that were grabbing the armrests were bulging.

It was enough to prove that he was using the last of his strength to hold on.

“It’s almost time… I can’t talk to you anymore.

“You’re already an adult now. When Daddy isn’t at home, you must… take good care of your Mommy, understand?” Brendon looked at his wife and daughter in the video with longing.

He couldn’t even bear to blink.

Because he didn’t want to miss a single scene where they were together.

He wanted to remember their faces in his heart.

This way, in his next life, he would be able to find them as quickly as possible.

“Dad, you’re really too much. You only have Mom in your heart. I’m your daughter, but you’re not worried about me at all.

“But don worry. I take good care of Mom. She’s my baby.” Lisa looked like a little adult.

“Alright… I knew my Lisa is the most obedient…” Brendon nodded with a smile.

Then, he looked at his wife.

He wanted to say something, but for some reason, when he met his wife’s gaze, he couldn’t say anything.

The woman’s eyes also turned red as she looked at Brendon.

Tears were about to run down her face, but she still tried her best to squeeze out a smile.

“The food outside doesn’t taste good. If you’re done, come back early…” The woman’s voice was a little choked.

“Alright.” Brendon nodded slowly.

Finally, he couldn’t take it anymore. He forced himself to use the last bit of his strength to hang up.

After the video call ended, Brendon immediately vomited a mouthful of blood.

“Brendon!” Marina quickly went forward to support his fallen body.

Then, she gave him first aid.

But this time, no matter how hard she tried, she couldn’t stop his blood from flowing out.

“Why can’t it stop? Why?” Marina’s eyes were red as she covered Brendon’s wound with both hands.

But the blood would still flow from between her fingers.

It dyed her hands and clothes red.

“Captain… Don’t cry. If you cry… I feel unfamiliar with you…” With every word that Brendon said, blood kept gushing out of his mouth.
