The Lord Mayor Falls in Love with Me novel Chapter 254

When Julia saw Joey appear behind her suddenly, she let out a startled scream and dropped her clothes on the ground.

She then lowered her voice and asked with confusion, "Why are you back? Aren't you supposed to be in the city?"

Joey did not answer her question, but asked with an aloof expression, "Where is Dad?"

For a moment, Julia was uneasy by Joey's indifferent expression. But she continued nonetheless, "Your dad is taking a nap in the room."

In the countryside, everyone had a regular schedule. They went to bed at around seven or eight o'clock in the evening, got up at five or six o'clock in the morning, and took a nap at noon for one or two hours.

"It's good that Dad isn't here. I have something to ask you."

Joey did not want her father involved. Apart from Philip and Fiona, who had helped her a lot, the only person she cared about and loved the most was her good father.

After a short pause, Joey stared at Mrs. Linderman with her bright eyes and said seriously, "Am I your daughter or not?"

Julia's expression stiffened at the question. She forced a fawning smiled and said, "Joey, what are you talking about? Of course, you're my daughter. You've been away from home for four years and the first thing you do when you come back is to ask such a strange question? It's already noon. Did you have your lunch? Let me cook for you."

If Mrs. Linderman had been so caring and kind to her in the past, Joey would have immediately and happily been touched by her. But now, Joey curled up her lips and formed an unmoved smile.

Because now she knew very well how hypocritical and unreal her care was. It was so bad that in the past, she was unable to see through her. She had always wanted to seek the warmth of maternal love from Mrs. Linderman.

"You don't need to change the topic. You don't have to answer my question, but I can get the answer. Now that technology is so advanced, I can randomly take something from you and run a paternity test. At that time, we'll see the truth."
