A Call That Changed Her Entire Life

Chapter 350 You Take Me As Your Daughter !

Beryl's words gave Jacob mixed feelings. On one hand, he was happy to hear Beryl say that she liked him, but on the other hand, he felt guilty because he knew he would eventually have to break her heart. Jacob frowned and said, "Beryl, I can't be your boyfriend."

"Why not?" asked Beryl, eyes as wide as they could stretch.

Jacob slowly answered, "Because I'm your father."

The babysitter, standing next to Beryl, widened her eyes and wondered, 'Father?

He is also Beryl's father? Then what about Mr. Jack? Who is Beryl's real father?'

The world of rich people is complicated.

As strange as it was, Beryl didn't look surprised. Instead, her cheeks turned red as ripe tomatoes, and she yelled, "That's your excuse? You're my father? Really? That's such a bad excuse!"

"Beryl, it's not an excuse. It's the truth. I am your father," explained Jacob.

"There are many men chasing after my mommy, and they all want to be my father. You're just like the rest of them. You've got no chance," she said. Beryl was obviously upset, but she continued, "Am I not good enough?

Why did you turn me down?"

"Beryl, listen to me," Jacob tried to explain again.

Displeased, Beryl pouted her lips and turned her head aside. She was no longer willing to look at Jacob's face or listen to him. "No! No! No!" she refused.

Jacob found Beryl's angry little red face utterly adorable. The way her voice went high-pitched every time she got angry at him made his heart melt with joy.

However, before Jacob could say anything, he heard a familiar voice coming from behind. "Beryl!"

Jacob's eyes widened, and his body froze on the spot. He took a deep breath to calm his throbbing heart, before he stood up slowly. He turned around and said, "Hi, Miss Lu."

Jacob didn't call her "Emily", since they were not the only ones there. Since Emily wanted the world to think that she was Cloris Lu, he did not want to expose who she was.
