Li Wenmin was left speechless by her announcement. He didn't know what to say to her statement that could ease the awkward atmosphere in the room.
He was careful to not make assumptions about the situation, but it was difficult not to. "Do you know who your father is?"
"No," Li Xueyue truthfully admitted. "You see I'm…" she trailed off, unable to finish the sentence.
"I-I'm…" her voice cracked, her eyes watering at the unbearable truth. Her throat tightened, her face warming from the embarrassment.
Li Xueyue couldn't admit the fact that she was a mistake, a product of something that shouldn't have happened but did. The stain that ruined the picture-perfect family. She wasn't supposed to be born. She was an unwanted child whose presence horrified both sides of the Bai Family.
Li Wenmin knew how to put the pieces together. It was either Viscountess Mu Yihua had an affair… or something unpleasant was forced upon her.
