As Anthony listened to her words, the smile on his face gradually faded.

At this time, Maria was lying on the chaise nearby, fast asleep.

In this condition, she would not hear anything that was going on around her, including the conversations that people had in the same room.

“What if it turns out that Maria really is your daughter?”

Hearing these words from Anthony lulled Julie into a stiff silence. Was he joking?

How could a man Like Anthony be so out of tun

A myriad of thoughts crowded into Julie's mind. Suddenly remembering something, she couldn't help but ask, "Anthony... When did you find out that Maria is adopted?"

It had long since occurred to Julie that if the Smith family could discover that Vivian and Maria were adopted, then so could the Wilson family.

Anthony might not have cared enough about Vivian to probe into her background, but he would have definitely investigated his fiancee, Maria.

He must have already seen through the flimsy story of the elder daughter of the Jenkins family who grew up in the countryside.

Only a person with blind confidence Like Bill would believe that he had successfully deceived Anthony.

"I knew it from the very beginning," Anthony replied Lightly.

“Well... I'm sorry." Julie shifted slightly, feeling guilty.

After hearing her father say that he knew that both Vivian and Maria were adopted, Julie had suspected that Anthony might also know the truth.

That was why she had decided to come clean to him and asked him for help to arrange the maternity test. And yet, hearing Anthony admit that he knew the truth from the very beginning still left Julie feeling unsettled.

Funnily enough, Bill still believed that the whole adoption thing was being done secretly without Anthony's knowledge.

“You don't have to apologize." Anthony's tone was calm. His attitude made Julie furrow her eyebrows in confusion, and the gears in her mind turned swiftly.

He didn't mind that Maria was adopted?

But why?

Was it because Anthony didn't care about who he married at all? After all, what he needed was just someone from a wealthy background to get engaged to so that he could strengthen his position in the Wilson family.
