When Yvonne noticed Dominic's sudden change in attitude, she found it a little strange and she immediately let her guard up.
She stared at him motionlessly without answering his question and she was extremely calm.
But Dominic was anxious. When he saw that she had not spoken at all, he asked impatiently, "What do you mean? Don't you want to reconcile with me?"
Yvonne still didn't answer. She just lowered her eyelids to hide the dark emotions in her eyes.
She had not thought about accepting Dominic as her father, but on the other hand, she did have slight expectations of him.
Ever since she was a child, she had not enjoyed the love and care from her parents. Therefore, deep down i n her heart, she always felt like she was missing something. After finding out that Dominic was her biological father, she thought that since Dominic loved Jacqueline so much, would he treat her as well a s he treated Jacqueline when he found out about her identity? 1
Would he regret that he made her lose her child in order to save Jacqueline?
But now she understood that it was all just a dream. Dominic had known about her identity a long time ago, but he never got in touch with her. Even when he saw her, he never showed any intention of reconciliation and despite knowing she was his daughter, he still said that he had only one daughter: Jacqueline.
All of this was enough to prove that Dominic didn’t care about her at all, so why would he regret everything he did to her?
As Yvonne thought about this, she trembled as she could feel the sorrow and coldness in her. "I never said that I wanted to reconcile with you. I just want you to know that my mother and I are your actual wife and daughter, Dominic. Jacqueline and her mother are just the other woman and illegitimate daughter."
"The other woman?" Dominic suddenly sneered and h e immediately took back the loving expression he pretended to show. "Do you really think your mother i s a good woman? In my opinion, your mother was the other woman!"
"What?" Yvonne was startled by what he said. Her mouth was agape and it took her a while to find her voice back. "You're saying my mother was actually the other woman?"
How could this be!
"Hmph!" Dominic snorted coldly. "The public only knows that your mother and I are husband and wife, but they don't know that I was with Jackie's mother before I even met your mother, so that’s why I said your mother was the other woman instead."
"That's impossible!" Yvonne squeezed her hands and retorted his words loudly.
She didn’t believe what he said was true.
Her biological mother was definitely not the other woman.
"Jacqueline's mother was a student sponsored by my mother. When my mother married you, she was still in college. Does that mean..."
"That’s right!" Dominic interrupted her and raised his chin proudly, "Jackie's mother and I came from the same town. She’s known me since we were children and even got into the University of Vancouver for me. That was when I was dating her, but later on I wanted t o start a business and I needed money. I happened to meet your mother, so that's why I broke up with Jackie's mother."
"So that's what happened!" Yvonne understood what went down and she looked at Dominic's eyes in disgust.
So he was a poor man who had clawed his way to success!
"Because my mother was rich, you broke up with Jacqueline's mother and pursued my mother so that you could use her money to start a business. Dominic, you're truly shameless!" Yvonne glared at him angrily.
