Xue Manor

Mouth wide open and eyes bulging, Mei Li could not help but clean her ear with her finger. Did she hear the last name correctly? Did she hear the name 'Bonaparte' or was she mistaken? The tears that had threatened to fall had vanished in her eyes because of shock. She turned to face Yang, hoping her fiance had the answer to her confusion.

Yang patted her thigh, where his right hand was placed. Leaning down, Yang whispered, "Your father is an illegitimate son. He has no claim to the Bonaparte name, but he was acknowledged because of his abilities as a public figure."

Shocked and still confused, Mei Li scowled. She couldn't even process the thought of having a family that had actually loved her. Now, she has to accept that her father was this type of person too?! Her hands fisted; her heart mixed with sadness and irritation which made her felt that the best solution was anger.
