Chapter 307 The Identity Of The Baby (1/2)
Zac was keenly aware of her abnormality. ”You look so nervous even before I said it. Are you hiding many secrets from me?” His sharp and deep eyes seemed to remind her of leniency to confess and severity to resist.
”Well... Actually... ” She hesitated for a while, wondering how to explain the matter about Mili and Dot to muddle through. Suddenly, an electric light flashed through her mind. No, if it was about Mili and Dot, Zac would have been furious and killed her at the first place, how he could sit beside her calmly and talk to her slowly?
With these thoughts in her mind, she coughed a few times and pretended to be confused. ”What kind of gossip would I have?”
”It's about you and father-in-law.” At the moment, Zac took a sip of his coffee and said, ”Finney said that father-in-law was not your biological father.” He believed that since even Finney knew about it, there was no need to hide anymore the secret of her origin. As the son-in-law of the Yi family and her husband, he should have a frank conversation with her.
Upon hearing that, Essie choked fiercely. She thought that Finney was always a woman of few words and deeds, but now she had a big mouth?
”So what? In my heart, he is my real father, my only real father,” she said stoutly and firmly that her father loved her so much. She was grateful, and she also grateful to Bob. He helped her regain the father's love and give her a complete family.
”I didn't mean anything else. I know you have a good relationship with father-in-law. I just want to know more about you,” Zac explained.

Her displeasure was clearly written all over her face. Zac quickly ended this topic. ”I'm sorry. Just forget what I said.” Now that it was a scar in her memory that he did not want to touch, he could not touch it again. Otherwise, it would hurt her.
She pursed her lips and her expression became more gentle. ”Today is Saturday. Are you going to pick up Rabi?”
Zac nodded. ”I want to take you and Rabi to a place.”
He looked mysterious, so she didn't ask more. She just didn't expect the place he took her and Rabi to was a graveyard. No wonder he wanted to buy lily flowers.
”Why do you take us here?” She held Rabi tightly for fear that the place would freak him out.
”About Rabi, I still owe you an explanation, so I tell you everything today.” Zac said in a low and deep voice.
It was too quiet here. Scared, Rabi buried her head into Essie's arms. Hearing what he had said, Essie could feel waves surging in her heart. Although it was no longer as important as it was before, she still wanted to know why he had to protect the child at all costs.
Zac walked to a tombstone and stopped. He put a bouquet of flowers on it and said, ”Leo, I take Rabi here to visit you.”
After a short pause, Essie said, ”He...”
”His name is Leo. He is
