Chapter 541
Miley was caught off guard, her reaction time seemingly caught in a slow-motion trance.
A barrage of inquiries from Robert left her befuddled, leading her to a sweet, blushing misunderstanding, “Isn’t this a bit too sudden? Are we meeting the parents already?”
Robert gently patted Miley’s head, clarifying with a warm smile, “It’s not just about meeting your folks. What I really want… is to dig into some childhood stories about little Marguerite.”
Miley then realized what was going on.

It felt like a brazen disregard for her feelings.

Facing his girlfriend’s fiery displeasure, Robert didn’t flare up. Instead, he took her hand with patience and began to explain, “Three years ago, Frederick scoured the earth for the girl who had saved his life. He was close to finding Marguerite, but in the end, Yuna took her place.
If she could impersonate once, what’s stopping her from doing it again with my sister?
Miley, it’s not the DNA test I distrust; it’s the possibility of Yuna’s interference that bothers me. So, I want to investigate further. Can you understand that?”
Miley, pouting, slipped her hand from Robert’s grasp and turned away, her lips pursed as she gazed into the distance, silent.copy right hot novel pub
