Delmont instantly smiled. "That's my good girl. It's best if you can be understanding. When I got married t o your Aunt Joy, your sister was not born yet. She is innocent. From what she understands, I only have her and her mother. She is not quite able to accept other people, so I concealed the fact that you existed. Which means...Brooke doesn't know that you are also my daughter. If she found out, she would be sad. You are different from her because you already knew she existed since she was born. However, Brooke came later, so she didn't know that you existed. Brooke...is also very innocent. Can you understand?"
Eira nodded. "I can, Dad."
"Mm-hmm. That's my good girl."
"Dad," Eira called out.
"Yes, what's the matter? Do you have any other requests? You can tell me. I will do my best to make it happen for you." Delmont also felt very guilty towards this daughter of his.
Eira bit her lips. "Dad, do you acknowledge me as your daughter?"
Delmont immediately put Eira in his arms. "Silly girl! I f I don't acknowledge you as my daughter, then how could I give you a thousand dollars every month? How could I take you out to buy clothes? The fact that you are my daughter cannot be changed. Aren't you silly?"
Eira instantly smiled. She felt a warm feeling. Her father had never been this nice to her. Her father bought her clothes, bought her new shoes, and even put her in his arms.
"Dad, can you...give me another thousand dollars?" asked Eira again.
"Of course, no problem!" Because Delmont felt guilty towards Eira, he immediately took out 1,000 dollars, rolled it into a small roll and put it in Eira's pocket.
In the past, Delmont would strictly control the living expenses he gave to Eira. The reason was that Eira was living with her mother and Malvolio. Delmont had the obligation to support his daughter, but he had not his ex-wife and the son his ex-wife had with someone else. No matter how much money had, he could not let outsiders spend it. However, it was different that day. Delmont was afraid Eira's mind was also hurt, so he deliberately consoled her.
"Forgive your sister, arlight?" asked Delmont.
Eira nodded. "Don't worry, Dad. I am the older sister. I will indulge her."
