Chapter 144 I Can Marry You at Any Time
Her father had never mentioned her mother to her, but she had heard a lot from the neighbors.
Her mother was a vixen who was beautiful and could easily seduce men.
Her mother was together with her father after being abandoned by a man, but she despised her father
for having no money and was unwilling to marry him.
After finding a sugar daddy, her mother would rather abandon her family and become a mistress than
become her father's wife...
She remembered that Phillip was not accepted by the Moore family at first just because he was an
illegitimate child.
But...
"If you are really my biological mother, what about Phillip? He is two years older than me. How could
Dad not know that you had a son?"
Ann's tone was a little anxious when she asked as if she was trying to grasp the last straw.
However, Melinda's red lips twitched.
"I surely could hide it from your father. At that time, your father pampered me and believed whatever I
said. As long as I hired someone to look after Phillip, your father would not doubt anything!"
Ann opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but Melinda interrupted her. NôvelDrama.Org holds © this.
"Ann, if it wasn't for the fact that you are my daughter, why do you think I took Phillip to a remote and
poor town? And why did I try to break you and Phillip after knowing that you two fell in love"?"
Her words touched Ann on the raw. "Your father also knows the truth. I thought that you and Phillip
delayed breaking up just because your father wanted to use Phillip to take revenge on me. But now it
seems that I was overthinking it..."
Melinda looked up and saw Ann's pale face. She seemed to feel sorry for Ann, but her guilt
disappeared in a flash.
"You are my daughter. Naturally, I care about you. If you and Phillip regarded each other as siblings, I
would not tell you the truth."
Ann put her legs together, and her right foot was pressed against her left foot. Her position exposed her
insecurity.
"That's impossible... How could Phillip and I..."
She was unable to accept the reality that her father might not live long.
Likewise, she was even more unable to accept that such a dramatic thing would happen to her and
Phillip.
"Ann, no matter whether you can accept it or not, this is a fact. You can check with your father or take a
DNA test. I told you this today because I hope you can deal with this matter rationally."
Melinda took out a check from her bag. "You are more sensitive than Phillip. If you don't want to destroy
Phillip and yourself, you know what to do. You are my daughter. I will not treat you unfairly. This check
can guarantee that you and your child live the rest of your lives without worries."
Ann sat there in a daze without moving. She was like a puppet that had lost its soul.
Her mother said that her father also knew about it.
That was why her father threatened to disown her to force her to break up with Phillip...
Ann's phone on the table suddenly rang.
But she was still in a daze and didn't answer it.
The vibration of the phone was especially clear in the quiet room.
Melinda raised her hand to pick it up. When she saw the caller, she hung up and powered it off.
She stood up and returned the phone to Ann.
"Is Phillip also in the hospital now?"
When she heard Phillip's name, Ann came back to her senses and did not speak.
Melinda seemed to know the answer.
"Since Phillip is also in the hospital, let's make things clear today. Go to tell him that you want to break
up. I will wait for your news outside the hospital!"
...
It was only ten minutes away from the restaurant to the hospital.
Ann was walking on the roadside in a daze, and Melinda drove and followed behind her not far.
She needed to confirm that Ann indeed broke up with Phillip.
Ann thought of what Melinda had just said to her, but she felt as if she was in a dream.
How could there be such a mother in the world who took other people's love and trust as a matter of
course?
Because she was abandoned by a rich man, she entrusted her son to others and lived with another
man.
Later, for the sake of wealth and fame, she abandoned her daughter and her husband.
What did Ann and Phillip mean to her?
Thinking of Phillip, Ann felt a pang of sadness and almost suffocated.
She could not help recalling her and Phillip's encounter and reunion.
He proudly accompanied her to play a simple online game that he actually despised.
He was gentle after their reunion, but he got involved in her life overbearingly.
At his alma mater, he had a basketball match with a group of teenagers just because she said she liked
teenagers who were fond of playing basketball.
When they were riding a Ferris wheel to the top, they kissed. He also promised her gently.
"I can marry you at any time..."
