Chapter 425
"Excuse me, what exactly is your relationship with my biological mother? Why did you pick me up
from the hospital for my mother back then?â
Arnold's face stiffened, staring at her in shock, âWhat on earth do you know?â
âWell, I know you're not my real fatherâ
No wonder Ellinor had been calling him Mr. Arnold recently Arnold's eyes flickered unnaturally
"Rubbish! What nonsense are you talking about? You are my daughter! Ellinor, even though you've
married into a wealthy family now, you're not trying to cut me off completely, even denying our
blood relationship, are you?â
Ellinor remained calm, âSorry, Mr. Arnold, I've had a paternity test, there's no blood relationship
between us at all, you can't fool me.â
Arnold was taken aback, he never expected her to pull this one.
"You secretly had a paternity test!â
Ellinor crossed her arms. âNot specifically, just when you and Sheila had your paternity test, I had
one with you too.â
Upon hearing this, Arnold knew he couldn't cover it up any longer. He gritted his teeth and said, âSo
what if we're not blood-related? I raised you, I am your father!â
Ellinor laughed. âDid you raise me? I don't recall that.â
Arnold was left speechless, he indeed hadn't taken good care of this daughter he brought home
from outside. He had her raised in the countryside and only let her come back when she got into
university
Moreover, Ellinor went to university on a full scholarship, and not a penny of his money was spent.
Ellinor wasn't hung up on these things, she didn't come today to pursue Arnold's parenting issues.
âAlright! Let's talk about my mother! Mr. Arnold, I hope you can tell me everything about my
motherâ
Arnold seemed very reluctant to bring up Ellinor's mother, he frowned and said seriously, âWhat's
there to tell? It's adult stuff, you're just a kid, there's no need to know too, much!
âI have a right to know about my mother!â
Arnold was dismissive. âEven if you have the right to know, I've long forgotten those people and
things in the past, there's nothing I can tell you!â
âAll forgotten, huh?â Ellinor was not in a hurry, she slowly stood up. âWell then, since you're not
willing to say more, I'll take my leave, along with the wedding gifts from the Blanchet family!"
Arnold was a bit panicked, âWaitâ
Ellinor stopped, turned around and looked at him, âWhat? Mr. Arnold, did you remember
something?â
Arnold glared at Ellinor, saying grumpily. âI can only tell you what I know, nothing else!â
Ellinor sat back down, âOkay, then tell me what you know!â
Arnold recalled the past with some irritation
âYour mother was a woman I pursued in college but never won over. One day fifteen years ago, I
bumped into her by chance, she urgently asked me to pick up her daughter from the childrenâs
hospital, after that we lost contact.â
Ellinor's eyes narrowed, âWhat's my mother's real name?â
âShe was called Marleneâ
Marlene.
Ellinor silently repeated this name in her heart, then looked at Arnold again, âContinue, what else?â
