Chapter 37 Dared to Call Her Mom a Liar!


"Did your mom ever mention someone named Ambrose Vale?" Alaric inquired.

Elisa shook her head truthfully and responded, "She's always told us we don't have a dad. That's all she would say."

"How about we do a DNA test sometime?" Elisa leaned in close to Alaric and whispered.

"So keen on being my daughter?"

"Don't flatter yourself. If you had a cute, sensible, and pretty daughter like me, you'd be the lucky one. Plenty of guys would love to claim they're my dad, but they just don't cut it." "So, I should feel honored?"

"You bet!" Elisa said with pride in her voice.

When Galatea Hartley returned from the restroom, she found them chatting and laughing together, perfectly in sync.

Later at dinner, Elisa indulged in her meal with great satisfaction, her mouth full as she couldn't help but exclaim, "This meat is so delicious. I've never had such a tasty steak before." Though Galatea had always made sure Harry and Elisa were well-cared for materially, their lifestyle now was nothing compared to Galatea's own youth.

She always felt she owed them more.

Meanwhile, at another lavish dinner table, Griffon sat down with Harry.
