Chapter 460 I’m Your Mother
Her words hit Tanya’s weak spot.
She kept quiet for a while before she finally said, “Okay.”
Jill said, “Let’s go to the cafe over there.”
Opposite the Golden Sunshine Kindergarten was a relatively empty and luxuriously-decorated cafe. It was opened for parents who came to the kindergarten to pick up their children.
It was a very high-end cafe, and the menu was expensive.
After Tanya and Jill entered the cafe, Jill said, “Two cappuccinos please, thank you.”
The service staff nodded. He was about to leave when Tanya said, “Change mine to a latte.”
After speaking, she looked at Jill and said, “Cappuccinos are too bitter.”
Jill frowned. “Hillary loves cappuccinos the most because it’s good for diet… Forget it, you can drink whatever you want.”
… Tanya did not say anything.
Jill even knew what kind of drinks Hillary liked, yet she never knew what she liked.
She lowered her head. Too lazy to waste any more time with her, she said straightforwardly, “So, what exactly do you want to say? Is there any problem with how I was born?” “Of course.”
After Jill replied, the service staff served them their coffees. He placed them on the table.
Jill picked up the cappuccino and stirred it with a spoon. She slowly said, “I presume you’re already aware? You and Hillary were not born a year apart. The two of you were born on the same day. In fact, Hillary was born an hour earlier than you.” Tanya clenched her fists when she heard this.
When she was still young and ignorant in her childhood, she had fought with Hillary for her mother’s love. However, Jill had always said, “She’s your younger sister! You have to give in to her!”
“If you don’t give in to your younger sister, I will beat you up!”
“What are you fighting with your younger sister for? She is the eldest daughter of the Joneses while you are nothing!”
Hillary had troubled her a lot just because she was younger than her…
Who would have thought that age actually wasn’t the issue at all in the end?
Tanya clenched her fists. “And then?”
Jill didn’t feel that what she was saying was in any way embarrassing or shameful. She merely spoke as if she was just narrating a story from the past. “When I was still with your dad, he was very unreliable. He often disappeared for long periods. Even after dating him for two months, I still didn’t even know what he was really doing for a living. All I knew was that he was always fighting and never behaved decently. I had no future with him.”
Tanya clenched her fists. “Then why did you give birth to me?!”
Jill raised her head and glanced at her. Then, she lowered her eyes and slowly replied, “Do you think I wanted to? I thought you were Jo…”
She suddenly paused and calmed herself down. Then, she said, “I thought you were also the Joneses’ child… When I was pregnant, even after computing the timeline, I still couldn’t tell if you were Karl’s or Hillary’s father’s child. But did you know? My social status was not good enough back then. If I wanted to marry into the Joneses, then I could only do so by having their child. Therefore, I steeled my heart and kept the child.”
Her lips curled into a smile. “But in the end, when I did a DNA comparison after you two were born, I instead discovered that you were not his daughter. I realized Karl must be your father.”
She stared at Tanya. “Because of this, Hillary’s father flew into a rage and we almost broke off the engagement… Although he still married me later, my position in the Joneses was still very awkward! All of this was because of you!”
Tanya clenched her fists. “So, that’s why you hate me so much?”
