Chapter 1015
Ruth‘s hand was stopped in midair.
She turned and saw a fierce bodyguard stare at her before flinging her hand aside.
“Mr. Winters, are you okay?” The bodyguard asked worriedly.
Harold shook his head and looked at Ruth with his misty eyes.
‘Four years ago, when I dirtied Mommy‘s clothes, she also looked at me with the same angry gaze...’
The bodyguard did not understand what Harold was thinking, but he knew that Harold had deliberately
dirtied Ruth‘s gown.
He drew a check from his wallet , wrote an amount, and handed it to her. “Is this enough?”
Ruth‘s eyes widened. ‘Half a million dollars?!
That‘s more than double the price of this gown!
‘What a generous gesture for a child bumping into me.
‘Sea City is truly a city with people of unusual abilities.’ “Is it not enough?” The bodyguard‘s gaze was
cold.
“It‘s enough, it‘s enough.” Ruth shoved the check into her purse. “I’ll let this time slide. Look where
you‘re going the next time.‘
She turned and headed toward the restroom to wash off the wine stain from her gown.
Harold was at a loss.
‘The evidence is clear. This lady must be Mommy.
‘But when I look at her, I don‘t feel any strong emotions...
‘I remember four years ago when I first met Mommy, I would want to cling to her even though she was
a stranger to me.
‘Do I love her less because she changed her appearance?‘
He returned to the corner of the banquet hall, feeling muddled.
There were tall plants on all sides. It was out of sight from everyone in the banquet hall, and about
three bodyguards guarding the entrance of the hall.
Melody approached and joined the rest of the Winters family‘s children and sat on the couch in silence.
After a long silence, Harold finally spoke, “I‘m not sure if that‘s Mommy…”
“What are you saying?” Melody raised her gaze and said in disbelief, “Hal, what did you do?”
“Mel, we know what happened in Cloud City.” George said softly, “Ms. Willis might have something to
do with Mommy‘s disappearance.”
Melody looked at her three brothers in a daze. ‘I should have guessed why they wanted to join this
banquet. Turns out, they‘ve already figured out what‘s going on.‘ “I‘ve taken a strand of her hair and the
paternity test report has been released.” She smiled bitterly. “Indeed, she‘s our mommy.”
George was stunned.
‘When I watched the confrontation between Harold and the woman earlier, her eyes lit up when she
saw the amount on the check. Even if Mommy lost her memory, she will never be this materialistic...
‘I‘ve ruled out this possibility but now, Mel said that she did a paternity test with her!‘
Alden found it hard to believe as well. “Mel, do you know what you‘re talking about?”
Melody nodded. “A week ago, I went to Cloud City to visit my teacher. That‘s where I met Mommy. She
might look different from before, but I knew it was here at first glance. To be sure, I secretly took a
strand of Mommy‘s hair and gave it to Daddy. An hour ago, Daddy told me that the paternity test has
confirmed that she‘s indeed our mommy.”
Harold was in a daze as he said, “So, it‘s truly her...”
‘I initially was sure that the woman was Mommy, but after confronting her, I started to doubt it. ‘But now
that Mel has said this, I‘m sure it‘s her!‘
