Chapter 30 - Parental Love: Part 1

john Dalton was destructed completely. His business was chaos and the news of the chaos was being followed at the state level. Various factors were leading to the ruining of his career. He had a young daughter to be taken care of. He had a son who was of an ordinary man, not capable of taking care of the legacy after him. he had a rebellious wife who thought of having a nihilist mindset. She never considered the family values and had never invested in her family and resultantly everything was reduced to ashes now. If we talked about John Dalton himself, he didn't regard family values himself rather he was frustrated and fed up with all the people around him as dependents.

His first child, Lisa was a very sensitive girl, who loved her parents too much but John Dalton knew that he and his wife fought over the responsibility of the child. Ellen thought of herself as an esteemed attorney who had to do nothing with feeble children. Ellen hated weaknesses and she never considered her kids as one because the only thing which is regarded as to be considered an only weakness, not the one that has never been considered.

On the birth of Lisa, Ellen said to John rudely

"by the swear of non-existing God, I m telling you that I won't keep this child. This is not my responsibility, you may talk to some custodian to see if they are willing to adopt her"

John himself didn't like kids that much but it was a hell of a big decision to give away your kid to some unknown people. He could not help the idea of giving off his kid to the people who may not let the kid know her biological parents. So, he kept Lisa and hired her as a nanny. Who nourished her and kept her under her protection. John was nice to the nanny but he never showed that he is concerned for the health of Lisa and he takes regular reports about her.

At one event Lisa was doing pretty bad in health and caught a high fever of one hundred and three degrees. John and his wife were asleep when there were anxious knocks over the door. John gathered himself and managed to pull off his blankets to get to the door. His wife was sleeping less-worried. He went to the door and asked the nanny about her emergency. She said Lisa is very sick and she needs to see the doctor right now. John was perturbed. His paternal feelings arouse for the very first time in a while. He hurried. Put off his sleeping gown and wore his normal clothes. Nanny brought Lisa who was fragile as cotton candy. Nanny had her in her arms and both of them went to the hospital. John could remember the day when Lisa brought a reward. she stood first in the class for her business idea of young people at 10. John was astonished. He was proud of her but he expressed neither celebrated nor discussed with any person around. He was not a man of few words but little he had expressed about his core desires
