章 346: Revealations

"You are lying," Scarlette uttered when she heard the whole story from the man. "How could I avoid hurting you if you continue lying?"

"I— I am telling the truth!"

"You're not." If he was telling the truth then her mission about Sienna's parentage would tell her that it's already completed. But it didn't. Meaning, this man is still hiding something.

She spotted the sweat on his forehead. The man was pale, tense.

She wondered what else was he hiding.

"I already told you… you are my ex-girlfriend's daughter. I thought I was your father so I raised you like one."

"So… our similarities."

"I thought it was because she chose someone else who looked like me to impregnate her."

The story was that Mr. Rouse was in an abusive relationship with a woman who abused him emotionally. When they were still together, the woman would threaten him that she would kill herself if he leave, or if he marry the woman that his father wanted him to marry.
