Daddy! Come Home for Dinner!

“Because of some issues at my restaurant, I can’t go to Belfard to find her right away. And we don’t have her contact information, so even if we went, we wouldn’t know where to look for her.”

“So during this time, I’ve been asking people to help find her address. Our family doesn’t have any ill intentions, we just want to ask her why she left without a word, and if she knows that we’ve been looking for her all these years?”

“We’ve been worried that something might have happened to her.” Wendy added.

“Enough, I don’t have the patience to listen to your ‘true feelings’ anymore.” Mrs. Lopez said impatiently.

Wendy was overacting a bit.

This act might work on some men, it could be really effective.

Mrs. Lopez looked at her coldly, as if Wendy had used this act on many men before.

However, it was useless against her.

Mr. Lopez had had many mistresses, and Mrs. Lopez had seen all kinds of them.

As for Wendy, trying this on Mrs. Lopez was not going to work.

Wendy immediately stopped talking: “Although we can’t go to Belfard to find Cindy Clarke right away, after we found out she’s Cain Velman, we immediately watched all her videos, and in them, I found out she has a child!”

Mrs. Lopez’s brow twitched, but she didn’t speak.

Wendy said, “There’s something… that you might not know. Five years ago… Cindy had… had a relationship with Mr. Lopez.”

“I accidentally found out about it back then, and I tried to persuade her to break up with Mr. Lopez. After all, he’s married, has a family, and is much older than her. She was still in college at the time; how could she do something to break someone else’s family?”

“I advised her against it, but she wouldn’t listen; she was only interested in Mr. Lopez’s money.”

Mrs. Lopez’s face turned frosty.

Of course.

Who would be with Mr. Lopez if it wasn’t for his money?

“Helplessly, I went to my parents and asked them to help persuade her.” Wendy said, “She was a good college student, with her own future ahead of her. How could she break up another family for money?”

“When my parents found out, they scolded her severely. Especially my dad, who couldn’t stand this kind of behavior.” Wendy continued.

“He ordered her to break up with Mr. Lopez or he’d sever their relationship.” Wendy said.

“Unexpectedly, half a month later, she suddenly left.” Wendy said, “At the time, we didn’t connect her leaving with this matter.”

“We just thought that Cindy was rebellious, and that she never listened to anyone in our family. After she left, we couldn’t find her.”

“But recently, after watching Cindy’s videos, we saw the child in them. However, the child’s face wasn’t shown.”

“However, all her fans know that she has an illegitimate son, who is now 4 years old.”

“Although the specifics of the child’s birth date aren’t known by the fans and Cindy hasn’t mentioned it, if you calculate the timing, it was five years ago that she was with Mr. Lopez. Half a month later, she suddenly went to Belfard.”

“Soon after that, she gave birth to the child. According to the timeline…” Wendy carefully looked at Mrs. Lopez, “The child should be… Mr. Lopez’s.”

“So at the beginning, I told you that before Cindy went to Belfard, she didn’t have a boyfriend for the first year. And when she was in Nork City, she only had a relationship with Mr. Lopez.”

“By this calculation, 99% of the reason that Cindy’s child is Mr. Lopez’s.” Wendy said.

Mrs. Lopez raised her eyebrows sharply: “What do you want to tell me with this?”

“Do you have any evidence that the child is Mr. Lopez’s?” Mrs. Lopez asked.

There was already one child in the house; how could she allow another one to appear!

“I’ve already considered it; once I’ve dealt with the issues at my restaurant and have some free time, I’ll go to Belfard to find Cindy and have a paternity test done for her child. Then we’ll know everything.”

“So what? You still haven’t said what you want from me.” Mrs. Lopez said coldly.

“I’d like to ask for your mercy.” Wendy said.

Mrs. Lopez’s expression suddenly turned cold: “What do you mean!”

With a pleading look, Wendy said, “If it’s proven that the child is indeed Mr. Lopez’s, I hope you can allow the child into the Lopez Family. Even if it means severing the relationship with Cindy, it’s fine.”

“As long as you agree to accept the child, I can make sure Cindy never contacts the child again and doesn’t bother your lives.” Wendy said.

“Why?” Mrs. Lopez sneered, “You can even make decisions for Cindy now?”

“I can. Even if she doesn’t agree, I can make her agree.” Wendy said.

“If you’re capable of that, why couldn’t you persuade her back then and let her run away?” Mrs. Lopez didn’t believe it.

“Also, why should I accept that child? Our family already has an heir, and that child is just extra. Even if Cindy isn’t willing to give him up, it’s perfect for me; why should I go looking for trouble?”

“Even if she’s willing, I wouldn’t want him. I’d prefer it if she’s not willing to give him up. It’s exactly what I want.” Mrs. Lopez said coldly.

“I’m doing it for her own good.” Wendy said, “Cindy is still young; she can’t afford to be held back by this. How can she get married as an unmarried woman with a child? Who would accept her like this?”

“We discussed it in our family, Mrs. Lopez, please accept the child and let Cindy return to being single. I promise that Cindy will never contact the child again and not disturb your lives.”

“Mrs. Lopez, all I ask is that you accept the child. Cindy can definitely give the child to you. Even if she doesn’t want to, I’ll make her want to!”

“Miss Clarke, this is just your wishful thinking. Cindy doesn’t want to give the child up, and I don’t want to take him either. What makes you think you can force both of us to do something we don’t want to do?” Mrs. Lopez ridiculed, “You’re really taking things for granted and it’s quite ridiculous.”

“Mrs. Lopez, if you just take a look, you’ll know.” Wendy hurriedly said, “I’m really out of options. I can’t let that child hold Cindy back.”

“Five years ago, she made a mistake. I can’t let her continue to make mistakes.” Wendy said with apparent sincerity, “I am her sister, I have a responsibility.”

“And also…” Wendy took a deep breath and said, “That child is Mr. Lopez’s, and Cindy knows it in her heart.”

“She didn’t just have a child for someone and then take the money and leave. She really had a relationship with Mr. Lopez.”
