The first thing Dillon did after he went home was go to Mr. Jones.
“Dad, if I remember correctly, you know a famous foreign plastic surgeon. Can you introduce him to
me?”. When Mr. Jones heard what Dillon said, his face instantly darkened.
“Dillon , you didn‘t listen to a thing I said to you, did you?”
Dillon pursed his lips. “Dad, Addy is my daughter. I owed it to her for the twenty–three years I missed.
Now, she‘s finally acknowledged me as her father, so I can‘t ignore her.”
“She‘s an illegitimate daughter. If you take her back, it‘ll make everyone in Sea City laugh at the Jones
family!” Mr. Jones said angrily. “If she‘s still Mdm. Winters, it‘s fine for us to take her back. But the
divorce situation between her and Duke was such a big fuss some time ago. They might divorce at any
time. Taking her back won‘t do the Jones family any good.”
“I just want to make it up to her. I don‘t want any benefits! Even if my daughter is a beggar on the
street, I‘ll still take her back.” Dillon clenched his fists. “It doesn‘t matter if you support me or oppose
me, the reunion banquet will still be held in three days.”
“Uncle Dillon, Grandpa is actually thinking for your own good,” Jasmine said as she pretended to be
obedient.
“ You should also think about why Adina didn‘t rush back to the Jones family previously. She just got
married to Duke at that time, so she looked down on us. Now that she‘s falling out with the Winters
family, she‘s in a rush to find new support. Hence, she‘s willing to acknowledge you as her father. Uncle
Dillon, you better not let Adina fool you.”
Dillon looked at Jasmine with disappointment. He never had a daughter in the past, so he had
projected all his fatherly love on his niece.
He would buy Jasmine all the good things.
Yet, Jasmine was slandering his biological daughter now. He felt really disheartened.
“Addy is my daughter. Whether you accept her or not, it has nothing to do with me,” Dillon firmly said
before he turned around and left.
He had come to ask about the plastic surgeon, but his breathing had become uneven due to anger.
After he disappeared through the door, Jasmine said, “ Grandpa, are you really not going to the reunion
banquet?”
“If I don‘t go, won‘t everyone in Sea City laugh at the Jones family for falling apart?” Mr. Jones said
coldly.
The Jones family had initially been a small family, so back then, it had been fine to bring back an
illegitimate daughter. Even so, it was mainly because Mr. Jones did not like to see Dillon do things in
his own way.
If Dillon had been as insistent with Daniel, would Daniel have lost the qualification to compete for the
heir?
Jasmine could not retain her smile.
There was conflict between Adina and her. If Adina returned to the Jones family, she might not want to
come back every day.
She really did not want to see Adina walking around in front of her.
“Grandpa, Adina still has four kids. Are you planning to let the four illegitimate kids stay in the Jones
family too?” Jasmine asked softly. Mr. Jones narrowed his eyes. “The kids are the bloodline of the
Winters family. If we establish a good relationship with the kids, perhaps we can maintain the
relationship with the Winters family as well.”
His words made Jasmine‘s heart sink.
Adina was not going to be Mdm. Winters anymore. She was already disfigured, and she had fallen from
the top.
Yet, all of that was not as important as having four children!
Relying on those four children alone, Adina did not need to worry about the rest of her life.
Jasmine curled her fingers tightly. “Jas, when Adina comes back to the Jones family, you may give her
more guidance,” Mr. Jones said sternly. “No one has ever educated her over the past twenty years, so
she isn‘t very clear about the etiquette in big families. We must prevent her from embarrassing the
Jones family!”
Jasmine faked a smile. “Yes, Grandpa.”
After Jasmine left Mr. Jones‘ study room, her smile instantly disappeared.
