He thought to himself, “Sure? What does that even mean?”

He got angry. “Don’t try to act pitiful in front of us. You think we can’t see through it?!”

Laura trembled, not understanding why he suddenly got angry. Her eyes turned red, and she shook her head helplessly, “I–I didn’t mean to. My mom says I’m dirty, and she doesn’t let me sleep on the bed. She says I’ll dirty her bed. I didn’t mean anything else. Mister, please don’t be angry.”

All four of them were taken aback.

Antonio’s expression turned even uglier. “Your mom doesn’t let you sleep on the bed?”

Laura nodded in fear.

He suddenly felt very angry.

Lilian took his money, didn’t have an abortion, gave birth to his child, and she was mistreating the child?

Why did she have to give birth and cause trouble for him if she didn’t like the child?

His tone became lower. “Get in here! Don’t let me say it a second time!”

Laura hesitated for a moment and then hurriedly climbed into the car. Her steps were awkward and difficult, and she cautiously sat down on

the seat.

Once she sat down, a sour stench filled the air.

Jasper wrinkled his nose in disgust. “Ms. Yale, don’t you take a bath? You smell terrible!”

Laura trembled, her voice tinged with self–doubt. “There’s no hot water at home. I can only wash my face.”

Her mom didn’t care about her.

She only knew how to wash her face and hands.

Jasper sneered, “A person like you shouldn’t even be alive! Your mom isn’t a good person, and neither are you!”

The other two boys also smirked.

Laura felt a pang of sadness, but she was used to it. She clutched her dress nervously and didn’t dare to speak, stealing glances at them.

Antonio, annoyed, picked up his phone. He felt her eyes on him, and he cast a cold glance her way.

Laura trembled under his gaze and quickly lowered her head, feeling like an unwanted little puppy.

His frustration grew.

Once they reached the hospital, the blood test was done swiftly. He didn’t want to continue being with her, so he sent her directly to the orphanage where she had stayed before.

“When the results come out, I’ll find you.”

Laura felt anxious, looking up at the tall man.

Her intuition told her that her dad didn’t like her.

Just like what her mom said, he would only dislike her, not like her, when he saw her.

Jasper looked even more annoyed with his arms crossed. He glanced down at her and said coldly, “Laura, don’t get too proud now. Don’t go around saying he’s your dad just because you think he is. The results aren’t out yet, Got it?”

Laura obediently nodded. “Got it.”

She complied so easily that all four of them exchanged glances.

Did she have some tricks up her sleeve?

But Antonio was too fed up to bother with her. He turned and got back into the car.

Laura stood there in the fading light and suddenly spoke up. “Mr. Smith!”

All four of them turned to look at her. Their delicate features had an air of aloofness and coldness.

She stood under the dim street lamp, looking similar to them, but her worn dress was incompatible with their attire.

Between sophistication and destitution, an invisible chasm lay.

She gazed at him hopefully. “If I’m not your daughter, will I ever see you again? I want to give you a gift; is that okay?”

Antonio looked at her pleading eyes, didn’t say anything, and got into the car.

The paternity test would take seven days.

During those seven days, Laura’s situation garnered widespread attention. Many childless couples online wanted to adopt her. The buzz surrounding her only grew stronger.

But the orphanage indicated that given Laura’s relationship with her potential father; they needed to wait for the results of the paternity test to determine whether or not she could be up for adoption.

Yet, she believed that the man was her dad.

She felt it strongly.

The orphanage nanny, Grace Mitchell, saw Laura doodling on a greeting card and couldn’t help but chuckle. “Looks like you really want to find your dad, Lala.”

Laura used her worn–out crayons to draw, nodding emphatically. “Yeah! I like my dad! That man must be my dad! He’s so tall and

handsome!”
