Even though their marriage wasn’t one of true love, now their issues had become the talk of the town.

Couldn’t he, for the sake of the years they had shared a bed, leave her with some dignity? What was she supposed

to do as a nominal wife when her husband was out gallivanting?

And where did she truly stand? She didn’t even know what her proper attitude should be.

A wife? Did he ever consider her one? Putting on a show for herself was just ridiculous.

Ronald noticed her hesitation and spoke up again. “Yulia, now that Anya’s become the center of attention, if you

“What?”

“Anya is important to me, but getting caught up in the mess with Nathan again would just be another

misunderstanding. What are you really thinking?”

Ronald paused for a moment, “Yulia, I can’t find any record of this supposed biological mother of Anya you’ve been

“So?”

“Is Anya actually your daughter?”

Yulia’s grip on her phone tightened, and after a few seconds, she let out a cold laugh, “You have quite the

any interaction with him before.”

the North, have also moved through several cities. In three of those cities, there’s a chance you and he may have
