I didn''t know whether tough or cry.
I wasn''t sure what Frank said, but na suddenly made a tough statement. "Who''s drunk? Fine, you''lle begging me for help someday!"
With that, she hung up the phone, then looked at me with a smile and said, " Charlotte, can you do a favor for your future aunt?" Being an elder seemed toe naturally to her.
I cocked my brows. "Future aunt? Are you really considering remarrying Alex just to move up a generation?"
"That''s worth considering." na winked at me. "So, can you do me a favor?"
"What is the favor?"
"Don''t tell Frank about your rtionship with Yasmin."
"Huh?"
"I haven''t seen Frank get embarrassed before."
na looked quite eager.
I chuckled. "So that''s the favor?"
na nodded. "Yes, will you do it or not?"
"I will," I agreed. na is probably the closest to Frank among the younger generation in the Smith family, aside from Megan. I also want to maintain a good rtionship with her. Plus, my background will be publicly revealed at tomorrow''s celebration dinner. Even if I didn''t say anything, Frank would find out tomorrow at thetest.
na pinched my face and looked at me with a loving gaze. "No wonder Frank likes you, I like you too!"
I felt helpless.
As soon as Yasmin got into the car, Joanne sat next to her.
"How is it? Is Charlotte upset with you because of your attitudest time?"
"No." Yasmin still had a hint of tears in her long eyshes, looking both gratified and pained as she said, "This child has no temper at all. She didn''t mention the previous incident. When I was justing downstairs... she even called me ''Mom''!" Joanne was also pleased for her. "That''s good, that''s good! When are you nning to do a paternity test?"
"Not necessary!"
Yasmin replied firmly without hesitation, "Joanne, you might not believe it, but when she called me ''Mom,'' the feeling in my heart waspletely different!"
Over the years, whether it was young actors calling her that while filming, or Christine calling her before, none of itpared to the impact of Charlotte''s "Mom." Previously, when acknowledging Christine, she had many doubts and concerns, and she strived for absolute uracy in the paternity test. But this time, it felt like there was a guiding force, and she was very certain that Charlotte was her daughter!Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDra/ma.O(r)g!
Her biological daughter that she carried for ten months and gave birth to with all her strength!
Although Joanne also felt that Charlotte resembled Yasmin''s daughter more, she was a rational person and asked, "Have you thought it through? Aren''t you afraid of repeating the same mistakes?"
She was naturally referring to the incident with Christine''s false ims.
Hearing this, Yasmin closed her eyes briefly. "Joanne, I understand your concerns, but I really feel that mother-daughter connection. Besides, what she needs most right now isplete maternal love. I shouldn''t doubt her to avoid... leaving any rift." Joanne was silent for a moment. "Then let''s leave it for now and decideter!"
She then remembered something, "Oh, by the way, ''Slow Life'' called me earlier. They''re about to start editing the first episode and asked us how we''d like it cut." ''Slow Life'' was the variety show that Christine was currently filming.
The show''s crew probably asked this because Christine didn''t perform well in some parts, but there were aspects that could create a topic. Hence, they came to ask Yasmin''s opinion.
It could also be said that the show''s crew was trying to do a favor for Yasmin.
''We''ve cut out your daughter''s negative material.''
"How should it be edited?" Yasmin sneered. "Edit it however it looks good. Tell them to make it as nice as possible."
"Okay, I''ll let them know right away," replied Joanne.
"Yasmin says to focus on the show''s needs and there''s no need to consult her."
The producer of "Slow Life" was stunned by the message Joanne sent.
''What does this mean? Did they not manage to do the favor and instead offend her? Did Yasmin think she was being threatened?'' he wondered.
