Love from My Dominant Boss

Chapter 499 Not A Biological Child

“If you want to know what is going on, you will have to ask Mrs. Campbell.” Michael glanced at me calmly. Initially, I felt I should not trust Janette’s words so easily. However, since Michael also said the same thing, I knew it was true.

I did not know if I could stand the shock. It was such a drastic change in my life.

Even though I always thought my parents did not treat me well enough, I had never felt that they were not my biological parents.

“So do you want to go and ask Mrs. Campbell now?”

Seeing how I kept quiet, Michael asked again.

“I am not going. I don’t want to see anyone now. Let’s go home. My mind is a mess, and I need some time alone.”

I did not know how I could face Alicia right now. If I were her daughter, I would not be able to talk to her calmly.

Michael did not say anything. He did not force me to find out the truth. I somehow blamed him as he knew my relationship with Alicia, but he never gave me any clue.

If I had known about this, I would have kept my distance from her from the beginning.

After I went back to the Shaw residence, all the family members were in the living room. I did not greet them as I went upstairs directly. They wanted to talk to me, but I did not give them any chance to do so.

Going back to my bedroom, I locked myself in the room. I fell into silence for a long while. My mind could not stop thinking about the truth that I was Alicia’s illegitimate child.

Michael cast me a glance. He was the person who knew me the best. He knew I could not take it for the moment. Hence, he did not say anything but left me alone in the bedroom.

Right now, I needed some peace to clear my thoughts. I needed to recollect myself and let my emotions ease.

I lay on the bed and kept recalling the memories between Alicia and me. She once told me that she had a daughter who lost contact with her but was found. She even asked me whether I would forgive her if I were her daughter.
