"You are a father."
Charlotte Thompson's lips parted slightly as she uttered these words.
However, such a response was completely beyond Oliver Battleson's expectations, and he couldn't help but furrow his thick brows.

"Nonsense!" Oliver could not help but retort.
The Allen family's affairs had already caused a sensation, and Ethan Allen was now seen as a villain by everyone.
Charlotte watched Oliver calmly, her beautiful eyes like a pool of cold water that extinguished the last bit of hope in his heart.
Suddenly, Oliver's shoulders slumped a little: "Indeed, Justin must have told you everything."
