Charming Lady Hard to Chase After Being Dumped novel Chapter 287

Mrs. Hunt went on and on. "Look at how I have to mediate for her despite how much I dislike her. What else can I do when Justin has already acknowledged her status?! Her embarrassing herself is equivalent to embarrassing Justin, which is equivalent to embarrassing the Hunts!"

Mrs. Lewis held Mrs. Hunt's arm and said, "Slow down a little. I told you to take the elevator, but you simply refused to. Can you go down the stairs with your knees like that?"

Mrs. Hunt replied huffily, "Considering the situation in the hall, it'll take even longer for me to reach if I take the elevator!"

The out-of-breath woman reached the lower floor just in time to hear Rachel saying, "Without a strong family to support you, you'll be hated by the Hunts sooner or later and will be divorced!"

She panicked at once. She was about to speak when she heard Ian's comment.

Mrs. Hunt was stunned.

Justin looked at Nora—although her brows were raised slightly, and she was a little surprised, she didn't look greatly astonished. He knew right away that she must already have guessed something a long time ago.

Nora had already given it a lot of thought.

After realizing that Henry Smith was not her real father, she had started to wonder why her mother had picked him out of all the ordinary men out there.

After she came to New York, she had come to understand the way her mother did things. She was likely someone not to be trifled with, in which case, she would definitely know what kind of person Henry was.

Therefore, her mother must have had her reasons for picking him.

She had thought about it over and over and even gone through all the events from back then. The Henry of that time couldn't get any more ordinary than what he had been.

If there was anything unusual about him, it was the fact that his last name was Smith.

After all, there weren't that many people with the last name Smith.

His last name was Smith...

In that case, did that mean that her father was Ian?

She had already suspected that a long time ago, which was why she had paid special attention to Ian's condition. That was also why she had followed him when he asked her to go to the balcony with him just now. She had even planned to find an opportunity to take a DNA sample from him and get Lily to do a test.

Therefore, she wasn't very surprised when Ian said what he did.

Rachel, however, was dumbfounded. "W-what do you mean?"

Yvonne also looked at Ian in shock and astonishment.

When she saw him staring at Nora, she suddenly panicked...

Ian slowly lowered his head and said dispassionately, "She is a child of the Smiths."

The whole hall was silent.

Everyone stared at Ian in disbelief. Yvonne was also astonished and bewildered. She looked at Nora, and then

at Ian...

One must admit that Nora took after Yvette a great deal, but the parts that didn't did indeed resemble Ian!

Her legs went limp and she staggered.

Even Rachel was utterly stunned. "What? T-that's impossible!"

She was just a hillbilly! It was impossible for her to suddenly become Cinderella!

Ian must be lying!

Warren was also dumbfounded.

He had been arguing with his wife just a moment ago.
