Chapter 402


    The butler sounded very surprised, but the duke snorted and said calmly, "I''d like to see if she’s


    as bad as they say, or she has a backbone as you say."


    "Besides, I’ve seen that little girl with my own eyes. If there is no paternity test, how can I rest


    assured?"


    "Didn''t she say that no one could hurt her child without her permission? Then I will talk to her and


    let her know how much benefit it would bring if that little girl became the child of our family."


    "I’d like to know if she will continue to think about the child, or if she will want to negotiate a


    higher price!"


    Only then did the butler learn what the duke was thinking, and he asked, "Mr. Carter, where are


    you going to meet her?"


    The duke thought for a while and said, “Ask her to meet me at the resort hotel at three o''clock in


    the afternoon tomorrow."


    "Yes." The butler said.


    It didn''t take long for Tina to hear the news and asked in surprise, " What? The duke wants to


    meet me?"


    "Yes, he’d like to talk about the child with you!" said the butler.


    Tina frowned, feeling angry and helpless.


    "Didn''t I say that the father of the child is not..."


    The butler sighed.


    "But the duke has seen the child with his own eyes. She really looks like Coco."


    Tina was speechless.


    Wasn''t it normal for children to look alike?

    How could she exin it so that the duke would believe that Kara couldn''t be rted to John at all?


    The butler continued to persuade her, "Miss Lynd, if the child''s father is not Mr. Carter, wouldn''t it be


    good to clear up this misunderstanding as soon as possible?"


    "The duke is aging after all, and Mr. Carter has no children. Besides, the little girl just happens to look


    like his lost granddaughter, and it’s inevitable... "


    Tina knew that if she didn''t meet the the duke, he would not give up.


    "Okay, I see. I''ll go over there and meet him," Tina said.


    "Okay, three o''clock tomorrow afternoon at the resort. Miss Lynd, you’d better get there early. The duke


    doesn''t like to wait too long. " The butler said again.


    "Okay."


    The next day, Tina finished her design draft ahead of schedule. After tucking Kara in, she drove


    towards the resort hotel.


    Finally, she arrived at the gate of the resort hotel, "Excuse me..."


    The moment Tina appeared, the guard said calmly, "Ms., I’m


    afraid you''vee to the wrong ce. We don''t ept outsiders here."


    Before Tina came, she naturally knew that this resort hotel catered exclusively to nobles.


    For example, the Carter family often appeared here.


    She took out the pass the butler had given her and said, "You misunderstood. I have an


    appointment."


    "Oh, you’re from the Carter mansion." When the guard saw the mark on the pass, he suddenly


    realized something. He looked at Tina''s simple and in clothes and asked, "Are you the new


    maid?"


    Tina choked. She didn’t bother to exin it, and said vaguely, " Yeah."


    "I''ll make sure." The guard said worriedly.


    Soon, in a room of the hotel, a servant received a call and said with confusion, "What did you


    say? A maid is here with a pass to the Carter mansion?"


    "What maid?" There came another voice.


    It was Mrs. Carter. 3
