Chapter 792 Side Story: Mackie’s Diary (4)
Mackie spent her time at school being a little absent-minded.
She kept thinking about her biological father, Vincent Gray and somehow had a big urge to meet him again at least once.
She wanted to know the full truth since, all this time, she had only listened to her mother's side.
But of course, she knew that her biological father was NOT a good man because she witnessed her abuse firsthand.
'I guess I just want closure...'

Mackie had a theater club practice after school and texted Meyer after she was done with it.
She stood at the school gate, waiting for her pickup to arrive, and noticed a black car parked near her.
She glanced at it a few times, thinking it might be a kidnapper. Mackie had been taught many times about the stranger danger since she was a kid. She understood that she didn't have a regular family, so she should protect herself in case Meyer hadn't come yet.
The car door was opened, and Mackie stepped back, ready to run back into the school to find the janitor or security.
But she halted her step after seeing the man who exited the car.
The man walked towards Mackie until they were only three feet away from each other.
They stood facing each other, and thus, for the first time after six years, Mackie could finally see her biological father again.
He looked haggard and worn.
He had lost his willpower to live, proven by his unkemptness. He looked more like a hobo than a billionaire, even though Mackie knew by reading the news on the Internet that Daddy Vernon bought the Gray company for billions of dollars.
His hair was unkempt, and he wore washed-up jeans and a jacket, unlike him. Visit no(v)eLb(i)n.com for the best novel reading experience
"What do you mean she has always been cruel to you, Dad?" Mackie asked.
"She... she always insults me for every little thing I do. She has never taken care of me as her husband, and on top of that, she cheated on me..."
"Cheated?!" Mackie's eyes widened.
Vincent nodded.
He looked sad and tried to reach for his daughter's hand, but Mackie took another step back again.
Each time he tried to reach her, she'd make sure to keep her distance.
"Mackie?"
"Answer me, Dad. What do you mean Mom cheated on you?"
"Mackenzie... don't you see what is happening before you? Your mother cheated on me with Vernon! They have been planning everything! They planned my downfall, and they had been having an affair way before the divorce!"
Vincent gritted his teeth.
He got worked up whenever he remembered how Chloe and Vernon cheated behind his back, "They fooled me, and now they have a good life while I'm suffering alone."
Vincent stared at his daughter with eyes full of vengeance. He wanted Mackie to feel the same pain he had and worked for him.
"Mackenzie Rose Gray, if you still think of me as your father, you should help me," Vincent said. "I've been suffering for six years straight, but at least I can pin my hope to my daughter, right?"
...
"What kind of help do you want, Dad?"
Vincent lowered his head, trying to hide the smile from Mackie, 'As I expected, this little girl is still the same stupid kid. After six years, she is finally big enough to work for me.'
'Just you wait, Vernon. I will ruin your marriage just like how you ruin mine. I will get my wife back,' Vincent thought. 'Maybe I should also ask Mackie to kill her step-siblings. They are just a bunch of hell spawns.'
"I want you to help me separate your mother from Vernon. I want them to get divorced so we can be a happy family once more."
