Though knowing his considerations, Anya furiously mocked, "I don't expect a lawyer like you would make such a hasty conclusion."

Phil silently compressed his lips and Anya stopped mocking him.

At the same time. The baby in Anya's arms finished her milk and was on the verge of sleeping. Well, it seemed that the baby at this age just had to eat and sleep.

"Let me hold her for a while," Phil said after putting the feeder on the table, guessing she must be tired now.

Anya was actually tired and gently put the baby in his arms, feeling her daughter become smaller in his embrace.

In the warm hug, the baby soon fell asleep. Anya also hoped to be embraced by him but knew her dream would not come true.

After he put the baby in the crib, they left the bedroom as quietly and quickly as they could.

As silence fell, Anya had to leave and said politely, "Since our daughter arrived home safely, please look after her. I'm leaving." Phil added, "If you miss her, you can always visit her."

After changing her shoes on the porch, she asked deliberately, "Would it be convenient for you if I came over in the evenings?"

Phil replied, "You can come over anytime. You are her mother."

Anya snorted and turned to leave.

Anya was sure he could take care of the baby and felt she was too clumsy to look after her daughter.

Reluctant to leave the baby, Anya hoped she could stay with her all the time and kiss and hug her.

She had no idea if all the mothers couldn't get enough of seeing and kissing their kids.

But she couldn't get enough of it.

Before Anya picked her daughter up from the hospital, Anya felt it wasn't sad to live apart from her daughter and she could visit her whenever she wanted.

But now, after holding her daughter, she didn't want to be separated from her.

Enveloped with depression and sorrow, Anya slowly walked along the road after closing Phil's door. She didn't leave instantly but leaned against the porch wall to adjust her emotions. At the same time, Phil carefully listened to what happened outside.

He did not hear the footsteps of Anya leaving and felt heartbroken, guessing she must be in torment.

He regretted his decision to break up with her and to look after the baby alone. She might not be sorrowful if she lived with the baby and he occasionally visited them.

Deep in thought, he walked out.

Anya was shocked by his sudden appearance. Feeling that Phil sensed her reluctance to leave, she was embarrassed and vexed.

She stomped and vented her anger on him, saying in a broken voice. "Phil, I hate you. It's all your fault."

Then, she ran away.

He was the one to blame!

Why did he end the relationship with her?

She had told him she would forgive him if he survived. Actually, she had planned to make peace with him and live a happy life with him and the baby. But he insisted on breaking up with her! If he hadn't made such a decision, she wouldn't have had to separate from the baby and endure all heartache.

She was so pissed off!

As Anya angrily left, Phil stood there and felt bitter because of her words.

It was indeed his fault.

After closing the door again, he went to the bedroom to check on his daughter.

To be honest, his daughter was extremely beautiful, with beautiful features like her parents.

The baby took after her mother especially when she slept.

With his eyes glued on the baby, Phil dissolved into thinking of the scene where Anya angrily left and how intensely she would miss her baby.

He sighed and gently stroked the soft face of the baby, saying hopelessly, "I don't know how to treat your mother now. I didn't want her to suffer, but I caused her a lot of suffering. What should I do?" Though he knew that the baby could not give him any response, and even could not understand his words, he could not help but express his feelings.

Later, Phil told his friends about his problems in the chat group. Arthur suggested, "You can send the baby to Anya. As a man, you are much tougher and can bear the pain of seeing your child occasionally. Besides, it is inconvenient for her to see the baby frequently when the baby is at your house."

Ezra added, "His words make sense. Since you broke up with her, she'll get embarrassed to go to your house to see the baby, so she could only endure the bitter feelings and refrain from her urge."

"You are right." Phil thought their words made sense. Based on his understanding of Anya, she would feel embarrassed to frequently come to his house to see the daughter.

Later, guessing she might arrive at her house, which was not far from his new house, he sent Anya a message. "Are you home yet?"

She replied, "No, I have something to do."

Phil frowned. "What do you have to do now?"

She didn't reply and he turned worried after patiently waiting for more than ten minutes.

He directly called her.

She impatiently answered, "Phil, what do you want?"

"Are you home now?"

"None of your business. Why do you have to know everything about me?" She lost her temper and hung up.

Irritated by these words, he had to admit that he, an outsider to her, should not intervene in her life.

But he had to keep her safe since he would be heartbroken if she suffered any accident.

He called her again. "You're my daughter's mother, and I have to make sure you were safe."

"Nonsense." She snorted. "I feel bad and go to a bar for drinking."

Her answer rendered him furious.
