Spending that night with Lilian had already hurt Winnie's feelings , but she was kind - hearted and hadn't pursued the matter further. She hadn't brought it up again over the years . But if he were to tell her that on that night , Lilian had gotten pregnant with a child and given birth to a daughter , would Winnie be able to accept it ? She was so delicate . After contemplating for a moment , he made a decision . " I won't acknowledge her . " His brothers instantly wore pleased expressions . Jasper was practically jumping for joy . " Then I'll go tell her , so she won't have any illusions about us anymore ! I can't wait to see her reaction when she finds out about the results , ha - ha ! " With that , he turned and left . Antonio remained silent for a moment before speaking . " I'll go too . " The other boys were taken aback , but they didn't object and readily agreed . In the orphanage , Laura finally finished the greeting card for Antonio . Today marked the eighth day . The gift she had prepared could finally be sent out today ! Suddenly , a loud voice came from outside . " Laura ! Your father is here to see you ! " Excitement surged through her as she jumped up from her chair and rushed to the door . Parked at a distance was a familiar car and a person stood at the entrance of the orphanage . It was Jasper . He held the latest iPhone in his hand , impatiently scrolling through it . Looking up , he saw Laura running towards him , followed by a group of curious kids . They were all wondering if Laura was going to have a father from now on . He scowled in disgust . They were like little trash having a meeting with him . Laura saw him , and he seemed to shine radiantly in her eyes . She stopped in front of him and cautiously said , " Hello , Mister . " Her large eyes blinked , filled with anticipation . Jasper's expression eased a bit upon seeing her . He had to admit that among kids her age , she was quite good - looking . He spoke in a deep voice . " The results are out . " Laura nervously swallowed and nodded . " Yes . " 1/2 Chapter 8 " You're not my father's daughter . " Jasper's eyes darkened , and he said bluntly , " Don't try to get involved with him anymore . " His words hit like a blow , leaving Laura stunned . All her hopes crumbled , leaving her uncertain as Laura asked , " I'm not Mr. Smith's child ? " " Correct , you're not . " Jasper coldly stared at her . " Don't go around telling people you have a father from now on ." The kids behind them burst into laughter , rolling on the ground exaggeratedly . " Ha - ha , Laura has no father ! Laura has no father ! " " Laura's bragging ! " " Bragging ! " " Your dad's dead , Laura ! " Jasper retorted angrily , " Your dad's the one who's dead ! " The kids were taken aback for a moment before making faces and running away . " Our dad was dead , to begin with ! " He was very disgusted . What good kids could come from a place like this ! Laura was just one of these kids and nothing special ! Laura was still baffled , but one thought lingered in her mind . " Mister , wait for me . I'll get the gift . " She ran back with her short legs , Jasper watched for a moment with a furrowed brow , then turned and got into his car . Inside the car , Antonio and the other two brothers remained silent , gazing at Jasper . After a moment of hesitation , Jasper said , " Let's go . " Laura soon dashed to the entrance with the greeting card in hand , only to find that the black car had already left . She shouted , " Mister ! " There was no response . She squeezed through the door and ran out , holding the card high , " Mister ! Mister ! Wait for me ! " The car sped toward the corner , with Laura following behind , crying and yelling , " Mister , don't leave ! Mister , don't leave ! " Jasper's expression darkened as he inadvertently looked back , only to see Laura's small figure running behind the car … " Stop the car ! " 2/2 22 AD Comment
