The air was thick with tension.

Mrs. Sheldon’s face turned sour as soon as the topic was brought up.

She wouldn't have agreed to a blind date for the two families if it wasn't for Antonia's attitude. Ashley wouldn't have been interested again, and yesterday wouldn't have happened!

Antonia, sensing their strange expressions, was baffled. "What? You don't believe me? When they divorced, Daniela said it herself, the child wasn't Sebastian's. Otherwise, how could I have let her leave the Romero Family with a baby bump?"

Richard and his wife were dumbfounded by her statement and looked at Fernanda.

Fernanda said calmly, "No matter whose child it is, you should apologize to Daniela."

Antonia looked at Fernanda with a hint of reproach, "Mom, how can you say that? The child in Daniela's belly is not Sebastian's, she admitted it herself. You're saying this now, how will Sebastian find a wife in the future?"

No one wants to be a stepmother, right?

Fernanda felt embarrassed by her, and she didn't want to continue the conversation. She waved her hand to Richard and his wife to leave.

"Alright, I've said my piece. If you really want to apologize, you should go find Daniela."

Antonia became anxious, "Mom."

"Shut up!" Fernanda barked and called Andy to see them out.

Richard and his wife left the Romero Family in a daze.

Mrs. Sheldon was confused, "Yaoming, what does the Romero Family mean?"

Richard thought for a moment, "There's a high possibility that the child is Sebastian's. But the Romero Family is not willing to admit it publicly now. Maybe they still have doubts, and they want to wait until the child is born and get a DNA test before announcing it. It's possible."

Mrs. Sheldon nodded thoughtfully.

That's right.

What if they admitted it now and the child was born and the test showed it wasn't theirs? The Romero Family would lose face.

"So, should we really go apologize to Daniela?"

Richard, thinking about Fernanda's words, nodded with a heavy face, "Honestly, it was Ashley who caused the whole thing. We should apologize."

"If the child is really Sebastian's, we should give them this face."

Apologizing wouldn't hurt.

Mrs. Sheldon understood, "Alright. I'll go visit her myself."

But thinking about how Daniela had intentionally made Ashley drink the medicine, Mrs. Sheldon felt extremely upset.

Richard had no choice but to tell her, "Looking at Mrs. Sheldon, she seems to care a lot about this Daniela. Keep your attitude low, and don't be stingy with whatever she wants."

Mrs. Sheldon had no choice but to agree.

——

The atmosphere in the Romero Family was tense.

Since learning that Patrick was the lost child of the Flores Family and Daniela had found him, Antonia's dislike for Daniela had grown.

If it wasn't for Daniela meddling, Patrick would still be working at Yichen, being quietly kept by her.

Now, Patrick had broken up with her with a heavy heart.

She was truly heartbroken.

She could feel Patrick's affection for her. For his future happiness, she could bless him and even encourage him to keep his past hidden.

But the more she felt this way, the more she hated Daniela.

If it wasn't for Daniela, how could she have lost her boyfriend?

Antonia saw Fernanda protecting Daniela so much, she couldn't hold back her anger.

"Mom, you can't be so biased towards Daniela."

"Yesterday, Ashley was injured and sent to the hospital. They say she lost a lot of blood. You saw how pale Daniela looked. How can you ask them to apologize to Daniela?"

"Daniela's status, she's a junior, how can..."

"Slap!"

Before Antonia could finish her sentence, Fernanda slapped her across the face.
