His Eagle Eyes on Me novel Chapter 2016

In Aryadelle, Natalie had been dazed and demotivated for the past few days. She had been doubting herself and her beliefs all along ever since her mother had told her that Dean Jennings was her biological father.

Without Dean's help, she would have never accomplished what she had so far. Natalie thought back to the time when she had mocked Avery for depending on men for her success, yet she had come to realize that she was no different than Avery.

"Ms. Jennings, is something troubling you? " Her assistant asked gingerly.

Natalie picked up her mug and took a sip of coffee.

"If one day your mother tells you that you are not your father’s child and that your real father is someone else, how would you react?" Natalie asked. "The father you've known has been caring and loving, and isn’t aware that you are not his child."

The assistant hesitated for a moment, before looking troubled. "That’s insane! I've only ever seen something like that on television. Ms. Jennings, if something like that happens to me, I will definitely feel torn... because my father has cared for me all my life. I do think that blood is just one of the factors that define human relationships and the most important factor of all is what you have actually been through with that other person."

"What I described just now is exactly the situation I'm facing right now.” A bitter smile appeared on Natalie's face. "It’s okay if you want to laugh. I've also thought of my mother has not worked. The only time I remember her working is when she grew bored. My father has always been the family breadwinner.”

"I won't laugh at you, Ms. Jennings. This sort of thing is out of your control, so you don't have to be upset. If you don't like your biological father, you can just ignore him."

"What if my biological father is really rich? " Natalie pointed out her main concern. " One father has money and no lover for me, while another has no money, but all the love for me."

"Just take both, then! It's not an issue as long as the father who raised you doesn't mind," the assistant suggested. "How rich is your biological father, Ms. Jennings? If he is willing to acknowledge you as his daughter, you can totally say yes. Why say no to the money, after all?" "He has loads of children ?d*

The assistant gaped, before asking curiously, "Ms. Jennings, who exactly is your biological father? If you say he's rich, he has to be as rich as kings..."
