My Mommy’s Brave Heart (Adina and Duke) novel Chapter 676

Chapter 676

He looked at Adina‘s face against the light.

Her face looked really similar to Olivia, especially her eyes and nose. She could almost pass off as Olivia‘s doppelganger.

Her lips resembled several members of the Jones family.

She had the combination of all the best features of the parents‘ faces, making her features and face look more outstanding than Olivia‘s.

No wonder his daughter was called the most beautiful woman in Sea City.

“Addy, you truly look a lot like your mother when she was your age, prior to her marriage.” Dillon‘s voice was full of gentleness. “But your mother was gentle and reserved. She was too good tempered, and she obeyed the rules very much. She was not willing to make any mistakes.“.

As he spoke, he gradually became lost in his memories.

Adina pursed her lips. “Mr. Jones, just get straight to the point.”

Dillon snapped out of his reminiscing. He stared at Adina and said solemnly, “Addy, you‘re actually Olivia and my daughter. I‘m actually your father.”

His voice trembled.

He had suppressed this secret for such a long time, and he really looked forward to this day.

But when he looked at Adina‘s expression, he realized that she did not look shocked and excited as he imagined.

Her gaze was indifferent, and her expression was calm, as if she was listening to something that had nothing to do with her.

“Addy, what I said is true,” Dillon explained in a flustered manner, “If you don‘t believe me, we can do a paternity test…”

“I believe you,” Adina indifferently said, “I already knew this. Mr. Jones, what else do you want to say?”

“No… Nothing else…” Dillon said in a daze.

“Then, I‘ll leave first.”

Adina turned around and walked out from the side door.

Dillon stood still.

Why did things turn out differently than he expected?

Why was Addy not surprised at all? Why was there not a scene where they would sob together in each other‘s arms after they realized that they were related?

Addy had been too calm.

“I already passed the age of making a fuss due to surprises.” Daniel pursed his lips. “When Mom passed away when I was small, your pain was only for show, and I knew that there was another woman in your heart. It was only when I slowly grew up that I knew before you married Mom, that there was an untold story between you and the daughter of the Xavier family. It‘s all a thing of the past, and I don‘t have the habit of looking into it. But since Ms. Daugherty is my sister, you should still bring her back as your daughter.”

“I share half the same blood as hers. Why would I be averse to her?” Daniel looked into the distance. “She is now living through difficult times, and it is the time when she needs help. If I have the ability, I will help her, but I don‘t have much I can do.”

This incident made Grandpa even more disappointed in him and his father, and the position of the heir of the Jones family had flown even further out of his grasp.
