Jessamine showed Colin the DNA test results. His face turned progressively pale. He had no idea when she had started having doubts and went to get a test done.His plot was exposed. No matter how shameless he was, he could no longer keep up the act.Colin decided to play the sympathy card. He said, "Jessie, even though we're not biologically related, you've always called me your father, and I've raised you as my daughter for so long. Doesn't that care and love count for anything? I'm still your dad, my beloved daughter!"Jessamine responded, "What you call care and love is to take all my mother's assets for yourself? You used her to help you start a company and develop your business. "Then, you conspired with another woman to kill her. Now, you're letting your mistress and illegitimate child come after me. I'm sorry, but I can't see how any of that is care and love toward me."Colin began to wipe his tears and said, "Jessie, I know I haven't been a good father. Please forgive me

Colin gathered his thoughts. His lips trembled slightly as he began to speak. "Back when the company was just getting started, your mother volunteered to handle social engagements. Comment by Caitlyn Chin: This doesn't exceed four lines. It can still be one paragraph."I'm not sure which business partner she slept with, but one night, she came back pregnant with you."Jessamine clutched her skirt so tightly that her knuckles turned white.She then scolded, "You'reColin Quilton, you're still lying! My mother died because of you, and you still have the gallcourage to say such things to ruin her reputation? "She chose to turn her back on her family to be with you—a poor man. She, and she helped you build your business. How could you treat her like this?"Jessamine was agitatedvisibly emotional, her eyes red with anger. She shouted, "Mom would never betray you. Many people may betray their families, but not Mom! You are the one who betrayed our family, you disgusting man!"Jessami

Jessamine held back her intense heartache as she thought about Elizabeth. She truly felt it was unfair for Elizabeth. If it were not for the glass separating her and Colin, she would have gone over and slapped that scumbag on Elizabeth's behalf.Everything Colin mentioned was all he knew. He truly did not know what happened after that. That night, Elizabeth returned in a terrible state with her body covered in marks.Colin had felt uncomfortable and irritated on the inside, but he had to pretend to be nice and accommodating.

So, he would not easily kick her out.He had no idea whom Elizabeth had spent that night with, and neither did she know the identity of the person as well.

She felt deeply sorry fo

Jessamine felt listless and had no appetite. She glanced out the window, noting that the nearby cemetery wasn't far away."Thaddeus, can you please drive me to the cemetery? It's been a while since I last visited my grandmother's grave.""Okay."Now, he agreed with everything she said.Thaddeus activated the GPS and headed to the cemetery located in the northern suburbs. As he stopped at a red light, he retrieved a lollipop from the glove box and gave it to Jessamine. Jessamine was momentarily taken aback."Why do you have a lollipop in your car?""The last time I bought toys for the children, they came with some treats. I'm concerned that they could be bad for their teeth, so you can have them instead."He simply wanted to bring a little joy to her at that moment; a piece of candy might not have made a huge difference, but it could help to alleviate some of the sadness.Jessamine wiped her nose, unwrapped the candy, and popped it into her mouth.Upon reaching the cemetery,

Jessamine slept right through lunchtime. As the afternoon sunlight streamed in, she rubbed her eyes which still felt sore. She might have cried too much.The surroundings gave her the illusion of traveling back in time. The familiar room, its familiar arrangements, and even the ornaments on the bedside table hadn't changed—it was still what she had picked up from a small trinket shop.Jessamine picked up a kitten figurine beside her. She had bought a pair, and there was one on Thaddeus' bedside table as well.When they were placed on the bedside table, Thaddeus was very annoyed. He said they were fragile and would take up too much space and that it made everything look messy. He was the kind of person who preferred things to be neat and didn't like having anything on his desk.Jessamine wanted to change his reserved nature, so she deliberately went against his preferences and insisted on placing things on the table. Although he didn't like it, he didn't do anything to stop her and

Thaddeus leaped out of bed to find the medical kit, then placed the thermometer under Jessamine's armpit. After a while, he took it out and saw it read 102.4 degrees Fahrenheit—a concerningly high temperature.He quickly dialed Erik's number again."Dr. Fisher, her temperature has risen to 102.4 degrees, and she has a sore throat and hoarse voice. Plus, she feels weak and has no appetite. Please come over right now."He felt that it was difficult to explain over the phone, so it would be better to have Erik come over."Mr. Holt, do you have any fever-reducing medicine at home? Take some ibuprofen first. I'll be there right away.""Dr. Fisher, we're at Jardin Estate.""Understood."After hanging up, Thaddeus quickly took out some ibuprofen from the medicine box. He squeezed out a pill into Jessamine's hand, handed her the prepared warm water, and watched her take the pill and lie down.After that, he started pacing back and forth, muttering nonstop. "Is Dr. Fisher taking a stage

With a tall man with long limbs by Jessamine's side, it would be a waste if Thaddeus wasn't put to good use."Do you want me to carry you?""What else?"Thaddeus pretended to be deep in thought. "Shouldn't you at least try to coax me a bit before asking for my help?"Jessamine's ears felt warm, and she wondered what he wanted to do again. "How do you want me to coax you?"After speaking, she glanced at the large hand placed on her body and warned sternly, "Thaddeus, I'm sick right now, so you can't bully me!"Thaddeus gave a menacing smile. "What are you thinking? Do you really think so lowly of me?"Then, he leaned close to her ear and whispered a complaint, "I overdid it a couple of days ago, and now I'm drained because of you. I also need some time to recover."Jessamine felt a sense of joy in her heart. As long as he didn't want to cause her any trouble, she could handle it.Given what he had just said, Jessamine felt confident enough to tease, "I didn't expect even you wo

"Thaddeus?" Out of nowhere, Jessamine called out to Thaddeus.He looked down at her. "Hm?""Don't you have any other dirt on Colin? Why not reveal it all at once?"Thaddeus snapped back to reality and realized the movie had already ended. No wonder she had time to chat with him."There's not much else. Everything seems insignificant compared to him embezzling a huge amount of public funds. When I was in the visitation room, I was just trying to scare him."There was a hint of disappointment in Jessamine's eyes. "I thought you really had some dirt that could get Colin a heavier sentence. You sounded so convincing when you talked about it in the visiting room."Thaddeus paused for a moment. "I'm afraid he won't tell the truth, so I had to use this to scare him. In reality, my story has quite a few holes, and he was probably just stunned for a moment. Once he has time to think about it, he'll figure it out.""Do you know the people he mentioned at the dinner?"Thaddeus was recount
