True Fated Marriage novel Chapter 1634

Celeste felt a little uncomfortable hearing that. Those questions had indeed bothered her for years.

Celeste once thought that Cindy was her biological mother and she was indeed her illegitimate daughter. After the test, it turned out that she was not Cindy's daughter.

That was an indisputable fact.

Celeste hesitated, not knowing what to think.

She knew that Aunt Smith and Uncle Jones had investigated her background, but it had ended up with nothing definite. She did not even dare to ask about the results.

Therefore, Cindy's questions had triggered something in Celeste. She wanted to ask what was going on.

However, she also knew that discussing the matter face-to-face was probably just an excuse.

Cindy wanted to see her, but Celeste had no idea why.

Celeste took a deep breath and said, "I don't want to talk to you face to face. Although I'm dying to know the truth, I'll pass if you insist that I have to meet with you. I don't have any interest in meeting you."

Celeste refused calmly.

Cindy's grip on her phone tightened when she heard that.

She narrowed her eyes. "You have to know that this may be your last chance. You may never know if you don't meet me."

The more Cindy insisted, the more Celeste was aware of what she was trying to do.

Celeste replied, "Then so be it. Knowing might just frustrate me even more, and I've lived my life just fine without knowing who my parents were. The last four years I spent with the Jones family were better than the previous sixteen, and I don't want to destroy my newfound happiness. So, it's not like I don't want to know, but I have no need to know."

Cindy sucked in a breath and sneered. "Ha, you've grown plenty over the years."

"Yes, this is all thanks to the Jones family. Aunt Smith is good to me and she taught me a lot," Celeste answered evenly.

Cindy closed her eyes and tried to tempt Celeste again. "You really don't want to know? Your father is no ordinary man."

However, Celeste replied without hesitation, "I don't want to."

"Why?" Cindy demanded.

"You say that he's no ordinary man, yet he gave me to you. That shows that he values money and power over everything else. I don't think I want to know someone like that." Celeste's tone was eerily calm. She had never sounded like that before in her entire life.

Her calmness drove Cindy crazy.

Cindy was amazed at how Celeste could make her so anxious while sounding so calm and collected. There was nothing else she could think of to say or do to convince Celeste.

"Think carefully. Your father is really not an ordinary person, and he doesn't know about your existence," Cindy said again.

"Do you think I'd believe you just because you said that?" Celeste shook her head in amusement and said in an even colder tone, "If he doesn't know about my existence, then he's not qualified to be my father. If he doesn't know that he knocked someone up, would he even have the guts to acknowledge me as his daughter? Why should I want to know who he is?"

Cindy remained silent for a long time.

After a long while, she sneered. "Amazing, absolutely amazing. Grace Smith has shaped you into a very cunning woman. That b*tch used the incident between Heinz and me to approach him, and she ended up marrying into a rich family. Now, she's taught you to do the same. You've learned very well."

"Keep your mouth shut," Celeste snapped, "You don't deserve to know about how lovely Aunt Smith actually is."

Cindy took another deep breath. "Celeste, you won't see me at all, right?"

"Yeah, I'm not coming. You don't need to call me again either. I have nothing to say to you," Celeste replied.

"Good, very good." Cindy was trembling with anger.

"You'd better put out your own fire. The only b*tch here is you. You're pathetic for selling yourself to get ahead," Celeste replied coldly.

With that, she hung up the phone.

However, her eyes were teary, and she did not feel the slightest bit happy.

She sat on the edge of the bed, pursed her lips, and took a deep breath. It took her a long time to calm down.
