How could this be?
From the moment Yesseca met Dory, Aimeen had always been her mother. This fact was already deeply rooted in Yesseca's mind.
Therefore, Yesseca was shocked to hear from Dory that Aimeen wasn't her biological mother!
Yesseca hurriedly asked, "Dory, are you mistaken? How could your mother not have any blood-relations with you?"
Preslie, who was standing beside, was also surprised.
She said, "Dory, did you quarrel with your mother?"
Dory looked at Yesseca and then at Preslie. She then said, "Madam Cowell, Madam Fernandez, my current mother really isn't my biological mother. I'm telling the truth. I'm not making up a lie because we quarreled."
As Dory spoke, tears began to flow down her face.
Yesseca's heart ached when she saw this. She quickly took a piece of tissue and gently wiped away the tears off Dory's face. She comforted her and said, "Dory, it's not that we don't believe you. We know you're an obedient child and you would never lie."
Dory looked up at Yesseca and asked seriously, "Really? Madam Cowell, do you really think I'm an obedient child?"
Yesseca reached out and patted Dory's head. "Of course, Dory, you've always been an obedient child. In everyone's heart."
Dory's long eyelashes fluttered slightly as she said. "But Madam Cowell, in my mother's eyes, I'm not. No matter how hard I try, she'll always think that I'm not good. She always beats me or scolds me."
"I used to think that I wasn't good enough and not obedient enough. But until this day, I suddenly thought that maybe it wasn't because I wasn't good enough, but because-”
When she said this, she let out a deep breath.
A strange light flashed through her eyes. "Madam Cowell, could it bethat she's actually not my mother at all? That's why no matter how hard I try, she won't like me or be satisfied with me.”
If other children found out that they weren't their mother's biological daughter, they would be extremely sad.
