Then she looked at Lindsey with grievance and sobbed, “I know you don’t like me and don’t want me to be with your father, but you shouldn’t have done this to me!”


    Their performance worked.


    Benny’s expression gradually softened.


    He shot Lindsey a disappointed nce and then went over to help Kendra up.


    While softly stroking her belly, he cooed, “Alright, alright, I trust you.


    Shh, no more tears.


    We don’t want to startle the Little one.


    ”


    “Dad, how could you just take her word for it? What if the baby isn’t even yours? What if she and Chayce try to plot against you again?” Lindsey looked at Benny incredulously.


    How could her father be so gullible?


    “That’s enough!” Putting an arm on Kendra’s shoulder, Benny scolded Lindsey, “Kendra has already exined herself.


    What more do you want?


    When your mother and I got a divorce, it was Kendra who took care of me.


    She has done so much for me and our family.


    Even though you don’t like her, you can’t just nder her like this!


    Besides, this is all Chayce’s fault, not hers.


    Speaking of which, I haven’t gotten even with him yet!” When Benny turned around to confront Chayce, he realized that thetter had managed to slip away during his argument with Lindsey.


    Chayce’s sudden disappearance only deepened Benny’s conviction that Kendra was the true victim in this situation.


    Lindsey hadn’t anticipated that her father would be so eager for a child that he’d turn a blind eye to the truth, even when the evidence was disyed in front of him.


    She smiled bitterly and said, “Dad, I’m your daughter.


    Howe you don’t trust me?”Belongs to N?velDrama.Org - All rights reserved.


    “Look at the mess you’ve made! You have no right to criticize Kendra.


    Besides, where were you the night you disappeared? Tell me the truth.


    Did you disgrace our family that night?” Benny questioned Lindsey aggressively.


    Lindsey was stunned at first, and then she lowered her head in defeat.


    Indeed, that night, she had slept with a man.


    She couldn’t even look at Domenic, who was standing right next to her.


    If he were to find out that she had spent a night with a stranger, how would he perceive her? Would he look down


    upon her?


    Nina seemed to see right through Lindsey’s inner thoughts and seized this opportunity to add fuel to the mes.


    “Sir, don’t let this woman fool you,” she said solemnly to Domenic.


    “She’s not as innocent as she seems.


    Look!”


    She showed him the surveince footage from that night at the hotel.


    Because the pale-faced Lindsey kept silent, Nina smiled even morecently.


    Domenic frowned.


    He had long since asked someone to deal with the surveince footage of the hotel, so how could Nina have gotten her hands on this?


    Finally, he couldn’t help but scrunch up his nose in disgust and take a few steps back from Nina.


    He just couldn’t bear the stench of her cheap perfume any longer.


    Then he addressed the crowd, his voice calm but firm.


    “Lindsey isn’t that kind of person.


    ”


    Lindsey raised her head in surprise.


    They had only crossed paths a few days ago, and he didn’t know her well, but he still made the choice to stand by her when everyone else had their doubts.


    It felt as though a ray of light came piercing through the darkness of the night, melting away the coldness in her heart.
