"I did everything to protect them, especially to protect you, Chloe. I don't want you to get stolen away from me. But after all of my hard work, you just decide to ditch our ten years of marriage just because of what—because I missed Mackie's birthday?"
"Oh come on, Chloe, you know that child is not that important. She's a girl, she won't even be as good as me," Vincent complained. "Why are you leaving me because of a kid that I don't even want?"
Honestly, Vincent was also unsure of his feelings for Mackie.
He didn't hate her daughter. In fact, he would admit that he was a bit fond of her because her eyes reminded him of Chloe.
But he also had no familial feelings for Mackie simply because he was a girl, and no girl would be as good as him.
"Maybe I can call myself indifferent," Vincent murmured. "I don't really care about that little girl, but I still treat her well because I don't need to be harsh on her like I was harsh on Chloe."
