Chapter 1785
Chapter 1785 Tracy scoffed. “I’ve seen your type before. You’re just after the inheritance Arnold has,
aren’t you? Dream on! I’ve held my ce in the Mendoza family for years. I’m not just a stay-at-home
mom!” Marlinfe finally understood why they were being held here. This mother-daughter duo believed
they were here to steal Arnold away. Although her taste in men was less than ster, she wouldn’t go
as far as to have that kind of interest in Arnold. “Mrs. Mendoza, I think you’ve got the wrong idea.
Arnold and I have no prior rtionship; at most, we were ssmates. I came today to rify some old
matters with him. There’s no need for you to be so anxious.” Marlinie politely exined. Tracy was
ticked off at being called out for her nerves. She felt a little humiliated. “Anxious? Who said I was
anxious?!” Marlinie smiled lightly. “If you’re not anxious, why would you lock us up here? Are you that
terrified of me meeting your husband?” Tracy’s face stiffened. “…” Marlinie didn’t want to antagonize
her further. She just wanted to see Arnold and confront him about the past. “Mrs. Mendoza, I have no
interest in your husband. You can rest easy! I just want to ask him something. Once I’m done, I’ll
leave.” Tracy eyed her skeptically. Marlinie seemed different from the typical gold diggers she had
encountered before, which made Tracy think she might be telling the truth. But Tracy was still wary of
her beauty and was reluctant to let her meet Arnold. After a long moment, Tracy pulled up a chair and
sat down. “Arnold is not home. If you have business with him, you can ask me instead. I’ve been living
with him for years, so I know everything about him. Just ask me.”Marlinie figured that Mrs. Mendoza
was still notfortable with her meeting Arnold. Considering she had been living with Arnold all these
years, she might be able to answer her questions too. After a moment of thought, Marlinie sighed lightly
and began, “Alright, then I’ll ask you, Mrs. Mendoza. Did you guys ever have a child named Ellinor?”

At the mention of the name of the person she despised the most, Tracy’s eyes widened in fury. “You’re
here for Ellinor? What’s your rtionship with her?” “Ellinor is my daughter. My biological daughter.”
Tracy’s expression darkened instantly. Her previous suspicions red up again. “So, it is you! And you
dare say you have no rtionship with Arnold? If there’s no rtionship between you two, why would
Arnold raise your daughter? Isn’t Ellinor a product of your love with Arnold?” The term ‘product’ made
Marlinie ufortable. “Mrs. Mendoza, watch your tone! Ellinor is my biological daughter, and she has
nothing to do with Arnold! She’s not the ‘product’ you’re talking about!” Tracy scoffed. “Well, that’s
strange! If Ellinor has nothing to do with Arnold, then why would he adopt her as his own daughter? I
know Arnold better than anyone. He’s a penny pincher. Why would he spend money to raise someone
else’s kid? Stop pretending! If you’re hoping to rekindle an old me with Arnold, keep dreaming!”
Marlinie was left speechless. “Mrs. Mendoza, let me exin. I was in a tight spot back then and had no
other choice but to ask Arnold, an old ssmate, to take care of my daughter for a while. Of course, it
wasn’t for free; I gave him an antique ne I wore as a token of gratitude. Moreover, as far as I
know, Arnold hasn’t been good to my daughter all these years. He hasn’t even spent much money on
her. I believe you know that better than me. If she were his biological daughter, would he send her off to
live in the country? I am here to ask about my daughter, not for the reasons you think. I swear.”
