As Eva seriously pondered, she realized the key to this matter. Her heart sank slightly, and she pursed her lips. "Dad, if you knew all this, why didn't you say it in front of Andrew just now?"Old Master Lesser waved his hand, "Now someone can fill Andrew's emptiness. It's a good thing for him. Moreover, considering his current situation, it's not suitable for him to have extreme joy or sorrow. As long as he likes it, there's nothing wrong with recognizing a daughter. Our family can afford to raise her."Eva lowered her head. Old Master Lesser and Old Mrs. Lesser knew everything, but they didn't say it for the sake of Andrew. Their son who had gone missing for over thirty years had finally returned. As parents, naturally, they wanted him to live the remaining years in happiness.Even if Mia was scheming, as long as she didn't harm Andrew and could make him happy, they wouldn't drive her away.********Mia sat in the courtyard waiting from morning till afternoon, and the more she wait

Maid Heather couldn't help but chuckle. She placed the milk on the dining table and said, "Mrs. Smith, I didn't cook anything greasy today. It's all light and healthy."Maria looked at the table filled with boiled corn, boiled eggs, milk, cucumbers, and fruits. It was indeed a low-fat meal."Thank you, Maid Heather."She happily walked over and took a bite of a cucumber.Charles sat down across from her, and Maid Heather immediately brought him a sandwich and fried eggs."Mrs. Smith, your meal is different from Young Master Smith’s. Don't worry. I will pay attention to your diet."Maria nodded gratefully. "Thank you, Maid Heather."Maid Heather waved her hand quickly. "Oh, don't thank me. It's my duty.""It's more than just your duty."Maria said seriously while eating the cucumber, "In this world, no one is obliged to be good to another person. Even parents are not obliged to be good to their children. As human beings, we should be grateful and not let others' kindness go to waste."

Suddenly, the doorbell rang.Maria pushed Charles with a smile and gestured towards the direction of the door, mouthing, "Someone's here."Charles clenched his teeth in frustration and said, "Ignore them!"Just as he was about to take the next step, the doorbell rang again."Hahaha..."Maria laughed happily at Charles' annoyed face and said, "Honey, they seem really anxious."Charles' mind was filled with frustration as he reluctantly let go of Maria and stood up. "I'll go open the door."Maria immediately sat up and straightened her clothes and hair.Luna stood outside, wondering why Maria hadn't mentioned going out when suddenly, the door opened before her eyes.Charles' angry face startled her. Had she disturbed them?"Hehe..."Luna awkwardly laughed and said, "Mr. Smith, even though you had mentioned Ria to the organizers earlier, they called and said they wanted Ria to go in person. They were afraid that if she was not so bad, it would ruin their reputation."Charles gave her a co

After Maria played the last note, the three judges were mesmerized as if they had been immersed in the beautiful music…Maria looked up at the three judges. Seeing them in a daze, she smiled awkwardly and didn't interrupt them.Charles glanced at the three of them. "My wife has finished playing. Give some feedback!"His tone was proud and domineering, which immediately caught the attention of the judges.The judge in the middle pushed his glasses up his nose and smiled, "There's no need for feedback. She's passed!"The other two judges nodded immediately, "We agree."Charlie frowned at them, "Is this all? You promised to give feedback and to give some advice about my wife's performance. Why didn't you give it?""Well..."The three judges were extremely embarrassed. It wasn't that they didn't want to give feedback, but... Maria’s skills were already on par with, or even surpassed, theirs. How could they provide feedback?"Ahem..."The judge on the left cleared his throat and tried to p

Charles' expression scared Luna, and she could only explain nervously."I really didn't think that much at the time, so I gave him Samuel's photo.""Samuel?"Maria blinked her eyes and asked anxiously, "And then?"Luna sighed helplessly, "He seemed to recognize Samuel and told me not to fool him and to give him Mia’s biological father's photo."Charles was stunned.Maria was speechless.Both Charles and Maria guessed what happened next.Luna looked at the two of them, trembling, "I really didn't think that much, Ria..."Maria shook her head, "Luna, you're easily influenced by others. I understand."Although Charles was angry, he had just said that he wouldn't be mad at Luna. He had to remain calm now.He analyzed the situation, "So it's highly likely that Alexander knew Ria's father was in Liverton but wasn't sure, so he wanted a photo of Ria's father. That means... it's really possible that it was Ria's father in the car.""It must be him!"Maria said firmly, "I can't be mistaken.""T
