Chapter 112


    Xander''s words confused me. It was true, though. Petra and I were not rted to one another in any


    way. I did not even know her before this, but she was willing to help me. Why? I never got to the


    bottom of it and just assumed it was because of Theo.


    Come to think of it, it was very strange. With Petra''s current wealth and position, Theo''s help was


    completely unnecessary.


    Especially this morning. She had asked a bunch of inexplicable questions that I was still confused


    over.


    "What''s going on?” I was pulling at Xander as I asked impatiently. Everything seemed strange.


    Xander turned around and looked at me with disapproval as he said, "There''s really no cure for your


    stupidity. No wonder Theo dislikes you and wants to divorce you. Your mind is no match for his."


    I furrowed my brows. It felt that things were getting moreplicated. I asked in a deep voice,


    "What''s going on?”


    "You still don’t get it? My mom thought you were her daughter and that''s why she was good to you.


    She did a DNA test with your and Cindy’s samples. The results came out this afternoon saying that


    Cindy is her


    daughter."


    I waspletely frozen. I never expected that.


    Xander continued talking, "Honestly, I thought it''d be you since you look so much like her. I didn''t


    think the results would point to Cindy."


    "Why was my DNA taken for the test? Solely because I look like her? And how did your mom even


    get my DNA?"


    Xander looked at me and sighed as he said, "You and Cindy look a lot like my mom. She has


    always been looking for her daughter, so she would certainly not let go of any clue. As to how she


    got your DNA, what d o you think?”


    I thought about it and asked, "Theo?”


    "Stupid, but not very. After an investigation, my mom found that many of your and Cindy''s


    experiences ovepped. But she wasn''t sure about your identities, s o she had Theo arrange for


    you two to see her. After that, she went and did a DNA test."


    "Do you mean that Theo came up with excuses back then just because your mom wanted to see


    me?" My heart ached a little. I initially thought that he wanted t o help me. Who knew...


    N?velDrama.Org is the owner.


    All this while, I was grateful to Theo because he had brought me to see Petra and therefore helped


    Cecilia. Never in a million years would I have thought that he was only doing somebody a favor.


    He never mentioned a word about it.


    "Does Cindy know?" I questioned.


    "I’m guessing Theo told her since she has been very close to my mom recently. I don’t like her at


    all." Xander downed the ss of wine.


    I was furious but wanted tough instead. He had hidden the whole matter from me. They took my


    DNA at the very start and treated me like a fool!


    I had always known that Theo only had Cindy in his heart but never thought he would go this far.


    As Xander said, I really was foolish. I had even felt a sense of guilt and gratitude toward him. I was


    not even aware of how I got betrayed.


    Seeing that I did not look well, Xander consoled me. " Don’t overthink it. Maybe Theo didn''t tell you


    because he was afraid of affecting your mood. You''re still pregnant, after all. Besides, no one was


    sure of anything before this."


    "They had no right to hide it from me and were in no ce to steal my DNA for that test. I don''t like


    being manipted by people. I really hate it!" I said loudly with a heart full of grievances and anger.


    Theo did not have the right, even more so Petra!


    "Don''t feel bad. I despise my mom''s actions too, but maybe she went overboard because she’s


    been looking for her daughter for so many years when she suddenly saw that you look a lot like


    her," Xander said, trying to


    "Why is it excusable for everyone to hurt me?” I shouted in a rage as I could not take the feeling of


    being betrayed by people anymore. I ran back to the hall.


    Petra and Grayson were hugging Cindy in the middle o f the hall as they introduced her to the


    guests one by one. Seeing them smiling cheerfully, my eyes started t o hurt as if they had been


    poked by thorns.


    This world was indeed unfair. Some people were born fortunate and always loved by many. As for


    me, I could only experience hatred, betrayal, and hurt all my life.
