"WHAT!!" Scarlett was shocked.

And when Scarlett understood her father\'s entire sentence, her body froze in shock.

\'If they never make love, how could I be born into this world!?\'

Scarlett\'s eyes met her father\'s eyes with despair. Now she believes what Lauren told him — She\'s not Jonathan Piers\' biological child — and regrets not seeing the documents she took from Lauren.

Several times Scarlett opened her mouth to say something, but no words left her lips. She was utterly speechless.

"I\'m sorry, Scarlett, you are not my biological daughter. When I married your mother. At that time, she was pregnant for a few weeks. I knew about that, which was part of our agreement that I would be your father. And, all this year… I tried my best to be the best father for you!"

Jonathan Piers almost choked on his own words—he had never met the criteria of a good father for Scarlett since her mother died. This is one of his biggest regrets so far, betraying Mikayla!

His vision blurred as he looked at Scarlett. Looking at her reddened eyes and the twitching of her forehead, he could tell this girl was upset.

"Scarlett, please forgive me! Ever since your mother died, I was never a good father to you. I\'m too stupid! Too stupid to believe in Lauren. I thought bringing her into our family could help me raise you, but..." Jonathan lost his voice as his sobs broke out.

His guilt toward Scarlett is now unstoppable. He can only cry, regretting everything. If he was given a chance to go back in time after Mikayla died, one thing he wanted to fix; he would never have married Lauren.

However, all this has already happened. There was nothing Jonathan Piers could do now other than beg forgiveness from Scarlett and Mikayla. He failed to fulfill his promise to Mikayla to care for her daughter and raise her well.

"Please forgive this stupid old man, Scarlett!"

Jonathan stood up from his chair and knelt in front of Scarlett. He didn\'t dare meet her eyes. He only stared at her feet before continuing, "...I\'m sorry. It was because of me that you suffered so much!" His voice was shaking.

His heart still hurts remembering what Lana lately said since he was discharged from the hospital. Lana tells him about how horrible Lauren treated Scarlett. And this had happened before Scarlett left for the US.

...

Scarlett was still silently dumbfounded.

pαndα,noνɐ1,сoМ Jonathan\'s voice was like the wind passing through her ears; it passed on her right ear and exited from the left ear.

Right now, her mind was only focused on one thing; who was her father?

Her eyes trembled to see the man she had considered her birth father for the past 23 years kneeling before her.

No anger rose in Scarlett\'s heart. She had already forgiven him for what had happened to her during this time. Only, right now, she was perplexed.

No words left her mouth as she was shocked and speechless by everything she was hearing.

Before long...

After calming her erratic beating heart, Scarlett finally made her move. She knelt in front of Jonathan Piers and held both of his hands.

A genuine smile appeared on Scarlett\'s lips as their tear-swept eyes met.

After seeing that Jonathan was no longer crying and calmer, she said, "Dad, don\'t apologize to me. I\'m not mad at you. I\'m not mad at anyone, either. But..."

Scarlett stopped when she could feel Jonathan squeezing her hand tighter. She continued, "...why did my mother marry you when she was already pregnant? Why did she do that!? Please tell me what really happened!"

Lots of questions were now assaulting Scarlett\'s mind. She wanted to know the answer!

Scarlett wants to investigate everything about her mother. She was curious about why her mother appeared on this island and chose Jonathan Piers as her husband—all of this is mysterious!

Jonathan was stunned by Scarlett\'s question. He remembered Mikayla chose him because she knew he couldn\'t have children. An infertile man. That\'s why all his relationships before he met Mikayla never lasted long. By the time he met Mikayla, Jonathan had given up the idea of getting married.

Before Jonathan wanted to speak. Scarlett asked him to stand up and sit back on the couch.

"Dad! Your knees will hurt if you do this for too long..." Scarlett pulled him and chuckled as she saw her father\'s face pale; he nearly fell over as he stood up.

Scarlett held his hand tightly and helped him back to the couch.

Hearing Scarlett still call him \'Dad\' made Jonathan happy.

"D-Daughter, are you not mad at me? I closed my eyes when Lauren..." Jonathan stopped his words when Scarlett stopped him from speaking.

He couldn\'t help but smile and sat back on the couch. His eyes were still looking at Scarlett sitting in front of him.

"Dad, can we just forget about that evil woman!? My brain is too small to contain memories of her! I don\'t want to hear her name anymore..." Scarlett sighed. That evil woman doesn\'t deserve to be in her memory.

Jonathan smiled bitterly. He could understand that and agreed with her — Lauren deserves to be forgotten.

After sitting more relaxed in his chair, Jonathan looked at Scarlett calmly. He said, "Well, what do you want to know about your mother?" Now his mind is much calmer, and he can think clearly.

He would say anything to Scarlett. Although once again, he had to betray Mikayla — one of the points they agreed on before marriage, he was not allowed to tell Scarlett about their agreement.

"Everything!" said Scarlett. Her hands on her thighs clenched, curious about her mother\'s past that she never knew before.

Jonathan began to retell everything, how he met a mysterious woman, Mikayla Davies until she finally died in a car accident and her last wish.

"That day, before her car accident, she told me, never allow you to go to M Country!" Jonathan\'s eyes shook as he said this. At that time, he didn\'t think this sentence was important, but now he felt that Mikayla\'s last message was strange.

A look of surprise flashed across Scarlett\'s eyes, hearing about her mother\'s past.

And what caught her curiosity the most was her mother\'s last wish before she died; "Never allow Scarlett to visit M Country!"

\'What does it mean? Why am I not allowed to enter the country?\'
