After she announced her severance, she never cared about the Daugherty family again.
Moreover, she was never a Daugherty, to begin with.
"Dew was mistreated in prison...." Mdm.Xavier sighed and said "Half a month ago, news got out that
she was pregnant.She had just gotten pregnant, but those people beat her up until she
miscarried.Dew’s health is ruined, and her mind is not quite right.The rumor is that she has gone mad
and was admitted into a mental asylum.."
Adina pursed her lips.She had mixed feelings about this.
During their younger days, she saw Dew as her own sister.
However, on the day of her coming-of-age ceremony at 18 years old, a crack formed in their
sisterhood.
That night, when Adina gave birth to her children, the crack became a full-blown rupture.She resented
Dew for four years.
Once, she had been so depressed that she was willing to run Dew over with a car.
However, when George and Harold reunited with her, all the past resentment and hatred dissipated.
They no longer owed each other anything.
"Dew is the only true daughter of the Daugherty family.Now that she’s in this state, her father will
definitely come looking for you.He only has you now...."
Adina interrupted Mdm.
Xavier indifferently"Grandma, I’m not a Daugherty, and he is not my father.."
"Daddy, don’t get spiteful,"
Mdm.Xavier said softly"You have Daugherty blood in you.Nothing can change this fact...."
"I'm not spiteful, Grandmother," Adina said with pursed lips.
"Aaron is not my biological father, I’ve run a paternity test with him before.." Mdm.Xavier was
completely stupefied.
"What?"
Adina knew this could not be kept a secret forever.She whispered"That year when my mother married
Aaron, she was already pregnant.
Aaron married her so that he could gain support from the Xavier family and establish the Daugherty
Corporation...."
"What did you say?!"
Mdm.Xavier could not wrap her head around this.
"Olivia was already pregnant? How can this be? She was such a good girl, how could she have been
pregnant before marriage...?"
"Grandmother, I even found out who my biological father is," Adina said coolly"It’s Dillon Jones from
Jones Corporation.."
Mdm.Xavier’s eyes suddenly became wide as saucers.
In her mind, she recalled the scene from a month before Adina’s wedding day.
Dillon had made a personal visit to give Addy her wedding gift—an emerald green necklace.
Back then, she doubted there would be any relation between Addy and Dillon...
..but at that moment, as she thought about it, it all made sense.
Only a father would give his daughter such a precious item before her marriage.
Looking back today, Addy’s facial features did carry a slight resemblance to the Jones family.
However...
Mdm.Xavier’s brows knitted together.
That year, Olivia and Dillon had no other contact, so how did they end up having a child together?
Furthermore, why did Olivia marry Aaron while she was pregnant with Dillon’s child? Mdm.
Xavier pondered it over and over and still could not comprehend it.
Adina could not understand it either.
All she uncovered was that when her mother married Aaron, Dillon was not in Sea City, nor did he
attend the wedding.
