Chapter 425
“What’s your relationship with my birth mother? Why, instead of her, did you go to the hospital to pick me up?”
Marvin’s face stiffened and he looked at her in astonishment, “You knew about that?”xo.com fast update
“Yeah, and I also know you’re not my real father.”
‘This explains why she has been addressing me as Mister Carew lately,’ thought Marvin. His eyes flashed as he
shouted, “How dare you! When are you going to stop with your nonsense? Corinne Carew, you’re my daughter! Are
you seriously thinking of cutting ties with your flesh and blood just because you’ve married into a wealthy family?”
Corinne remained calm. “I’m sorry, Mister Carew, but I’ve already done a paternity test and you and I have no
blood ties at all so you can’t fool me.”
Marvin did a double-take. He never expected that she would do something like this. “How dare you do a paternity

Corinne folded her arms lazily. “Oh, I didn’t plan for it. I just thought I might as well do it when you and Sherlyn were
doing yours.”
Marvin knew he could not hide the truth from her anymore. He gritted his teeth and scoffed.” So what if you have
no blood ties? I was the one who brought you up and that makes me your father!”
Corinne smiled. “Did you? I don’t seem to remember you ever doing that.”
Marvin was completely speechless. It was true that he did not raise this adopted daughter of his. Instead, she was
thrown into the countryside and was only allowed to come back after she got into university. Moreover, she never
spent a penny of this on her education since she received a full-ride scholarship.
Corinne did not care about that; she did not come here to rehash what he did wrong as a parent. “It doesn’t matter
if you’re my real father or not because I came here to talk about my mother. Tell me everything you know about
her, Mister Carew.”
It was obvious Marvin did not want to talk about Corinne’s mother at all. He knitted his brows in consternation and
said seriously, “There’s nothing to talk about! Whatever happens, is only between me and her! You have no right to
butt into our affairs.”
Corinne narrowed her eyes. “She’s my mother! So, of course, I have the right to find out the truth about her!”
Marvin was not in agreement with her. “Even so, I still have nothing to tell you ’cause I’ve long forgotten what
happened in the past.”
“You’ve forgotten?” Corinne did not panic nor did she get angry. She stood up slowly and
continued to say, “Very well then. Since you’re unwilling to tell me anything, I’ll be taking the engagement gifts with
me then!”
Marvin immediately panicked at the thought of the engagement gifts getting taken away.

Corinne paused in her tracks and looked back at him. “Yes? Has your memory come back now, Mister Carew?”
Marvin glared at her angrily. “I can only tell you what I know ’cause I’m not sure about the rest.”
Corinne sat back down. “Okay, what do you know?”
Thinking back to the past irritated Marvin to no end. “Your mother and I used to go to the same university and she
turned me down after I confessed my feelings to her. One day fifteen years ago, when I ran into her again by
chance, she anxiously asked me to go to the Children’s Hospital to pick you up, and we lost contact with each other
after that.”
The corners of Corinne’s eyes tensed up. “What’s my mother’s name?”
“Em. Em Love.”
‘Em Love.’ Corinne repeated her mother’s name in her heart. Then she fixed her gaze on Marvin and asked, “Go
on. What else do you know about her?”
