Chapter 23 She Hopes It’s Real
Aldo looked at him for a long time, and he came to the conclusion that Sebastian was reliable. He’s
handsome; the most handsome man I’ve ever met. Uncle Sam is the most handsome man in Worrick,
but Mr. Hart is even more handsome than he is. And he’s really elegant. Other than that, he has a
sense of justice, but most importantly, he looks at me and Buddy with gentle eyes, just like Mom does.
It’s like he can be happy just by looking at us two. Fine, I’ll trust him. “Sure.” He looked at Sebastian
and nodded. “We can stay over at your place for the time being.”
Sebastian chortled. So he’s saying they’ll be my guests for now. If they’re happy, they’ll stay, but if
they’re not, they’ll leave, huh?
“Okay.” He patted the boy’s head lovingly. “You call the shots, son.”
Aldo fidgeted and dodged him. “Don’t pat my head. You’ll make me short,” he mumbled.
Sebastian noticed his ears turning pink, and he smiled. What a softie. So adorable. He patted the boy’s
head again despite his protests, and he smiled at Madeline. “Pack your things. We’re leaving right now.
Need my help?”
“It’s alright.” She hesitated for a moment and bit her lip. “I have something to tell you. You can decide if
you want to take me and the kids to your father after that.”
Sebastian nodded. “Tell me.”
She looked at the ground, and her eyelashes fluttered. “My mother… is an illegitimate child.”
Illegitimate children were looked down upon in Dusktown, and even their children were seen as marks
of humiliation.
That woman had abandoned her when she was a child, but still she had to suffer the consequences
because of her.
Her uncle, Nigel Taylor, who was also Dan’s father, had two sisters. One, his true sister—Crystal Taylor.
She was the noble and beloved princess of the Taylors. The other was her mother, the illegitimate child
Nigel’s father sired with another woman—Cameron.
As the legitimate son, Nigel despised Cameron. Back when Madeline almost died, Dan pitied her and
took her back in, much to Nigel’s fury. Nigel had yelled and screamed at his own son for that.
Dan refused to give in and went against the family despite Nigel’s objection. But Nigel couldn’t win
against Dan, so he reluctantly took Madeline in. But as she was the child abandoned by an illegitimate
daughter, she had been suffering under the Taylors.
Fortunately for her, Sam was a gentle person, and it was all thanks to him that she managed to grow
up in peace. She didn’t know who Sebastian really was, but judging from his clothes and mannerism,
she knew he must come from an aristocratic family as well.
Will someone like him accept my son, whose grandmother is an illegitimate child? Bloodline was
important for aristocrats. Her son might be important, but Sebastian was young. If he wanted a son, he
could marry a lady from a clean background and sire a few more children. It didn’t necessarily need to
be her boys.
“You’re reading too much into it,” he said gently. “Your mother’s the illegitimate child, not you. She
might be the product of the sin of lust, but you are not. You are legitimate. My father won’t look down on
you just because of that. And besides…” He took a few papers out of the file and handed them to
Madeline. “I suspect that you’re not Cameron’s true daughter.”
“What?” Madeline stared at him in shock.
“I have to apologize first.” Sebastian nodded at her. “My father sent his men to gather info on you and
the kids so he can know you guys better.”
“And?” Madeline didn’t care about that. She had far more important matters to deal with first. “Why did
you say she’s not my real mother?”
“Because she’s too cruel to you. She doesn’t treat you like her own daughter. Instead, you’re more like
an enemy to her.” He pointed at the papers before Madeline. “And look at this. She’s an alcoholic.
There were a few times—after she was drunk—that she bragged about how lucky her daughter has it,
and how she’s born to be a princess. She even said she played the Taylors like a fiddle despite how
smart they think they are.”
Sebastian looked at Madeline. “I don’t think you had an exactly princess-esque life in the Taylor
household, not to mention they don’t acknowledge Cameron. After she divorced her first husband, she
married a wealthy middle-aged man and cut contact with the Taylors. I don’t think she can play the
Taylors like a fiddle, unless she did a switcheroo using you and the Taylors’ kid.”
He took a sheet of paper out from the stack and pointed it out to Madeline. “Look here. Crystal and
Cameron’s daughter were born on the same day in the same month in the same year, and in the same
hospital. I suspect that she did a switcheroo using her daughter and Crystal’s. That’s you, by the way.
You are Crystal’s real daughter, while Crystal’s ‘daughter’—Angie Wendel—is Cameron’s real
daughter.”
Madeline looked at the paper in shocked silence. I-I’m not Cameron’s daughter? I’m their most beloved
princess’ daughter instead? I-Is this real? She really hoped it was.
She didn’t care about the Wendels’ wealth. She was just doing it for the boys. She didn’t want her boys
to be discriminated against because their grandmother was an illegitimate daughter.
Sebastian said, “If you’re fine with it, I can send these papers to Michael. He’s a smart man. He’ll know
what I’m talking about once he sees this, and once he does, he’ll come here to do a paternity test with
you.”
Madeline’s hands were trembling. Michael was the head of the Wendel Family and the richest man of
Wendel City. She had seen him before. He was a handsome, gentlemanly person. He had style, and
he cared a lot about his wife and daughter. That strong but gentle person might actually be my father?
