When Blaine returned home, it was almost midnight.
Yolanda was very sleepy, but she still insisted on seeing her father before going to bed.
Eartha and Brandon accompanied her.
Seeing Yolanda was so drowsy that she was unable to open her eyes but still pretended to be full of energy, both of them felt sorry for her.
"Yora, why don't you go upstairs and sleep? Your dad won't go to work tomorrow, and you can see him when you wake up," Eartha whispered, hugging Yolanda.
"I want to wait for Dad." Yolanda rubbed her eyes and shook her head.
Brandon rubbed Yolanda’s head and took out his phone to urge Blaine.
Suddenly, a car stopped outside the door, and Yolanda immediately became excited. She ran to the window, and her eyes lit up, jumping with joy. "It's Dad!"
Eartha and Brandon went to open the door while holding onto Yolanda, afraid that she might get hurt.
“Let’s wait for him here.”
Yolanda nodded, and she was very excited.
After stopping the car, Blaine didn’t immediately get out of the car. He leaned against the back of the car and pinched his nose bridge.
Three days ago, he received a message from Brandon that his 5-year-old daughter had come back.
Blaine thought Brandon was joking, but Brandon sent him the photos and kinship appraisal report, which forced Blaine to accept this fact.
Looking at the unfamiliar little girl in the photo, Blaine felt a restlessness that he had never experienced before. After thinking for many days, he couldn't remember who he had slept with.

Blaine's reputation was the best among the noblemen in Griffinford, and he was indifferent in emotions.
During the past 30 years, no girl could confess her feelings to him when facing his cold eyes.
Therefore, it was unbelievable that he had such a daughter.
Blaine pondered for a moment and called his assistant Zack. "Investigate the girl and other competition company leaders. I suspect that this girl has something to do with them."
Hanging up the phone, Blaine got out of the car and walked step by step towards the villa.
At the moment the door opened, Yolanda was very excited.
When she saw Blaine, she burst into tears and ran towards him, hugging his leg and sobbing, "Dad, I finally saw you..."
Blaine was indifferent as he looked at the girl who was crying and whose snot was about to drip onto his pants.
He withdrew his feet, took a step back, and distanced himself from Yolanda.
Yolanda, who was crying, fell to the ground and suddenly realized that Blaine's leg was missing. She looked up at Blaine, murmuring, "Dad."
Blaine didn't look at her but walked towards the sofa, unbuttoning his suit and sitting down elegantly.
Brandon and Eartha were stunned.
They looked at each other, and Eartha went to hug Yolanda and wipe her crying face.
Brandon kicked Blaine and said, "What’s wrong with you?
"What do you mean? Yora was sleepy, but she still waited for you. Is this your attitude?"
Hearing these words, Blaine frowned and instinctively looked at Yolanda.
Seeing Yolanda looking pitifully at him, Blaine squinted his eyes deeply.
“Her words and a kinship appraisal report can’t prove that I’m her father.”
Yolanda lowered her eyes and clenched her hands together.
Although she knew it was reasonable for Blaine to be cautious, she still felt aggrieved.
However, she couldn't say that Blaine was wrong.
Brandon felt sad as he saw Yolanda go from joy to disappointment, but he could understand Blaine.
If a girl came to him and said he was her father, he wouldn’t accept it, either.
Therefore, Brandon had no reason to blame Blaine.
"What should we do? Are you going to do a paternity test again?" Eartha looked at Blaine and then at Yolanda.
"We will do the paternity test, but I want to know." Blaine looked intently at Yolanda coldly. "Girl, who told you I'm your father?"
Yolanda raised her head and met Blaine's gaze, without any fear.
Blaine was a little surprised that this girl was not afraid of him.
Yolanda took a sniff and said seriously, "Mom told me, but you can't see her because she is dead."
Blaine frowned.
Yolanda jumped out of Eartha's embrace and walked to Blaine. As everyone thought she was going to say something, she stretched out her arm and hugged Blaine.
This was what she wanted to do most in her previous life. Now she finally saw her father again even though he didn't intend to recognize her.
“I can do a paternity test to prove that I'm not lying, but don't doubt Mom. She didn't ask me to come to you even though we lived a hard life.”
After speaking, Yolanda withdrew from Blaine's embrace and politely said good night to Eartha and Brandon before going upstairs.
Lying on the soft bed, Yolanda didn't feel sleepy at all.
She tightened the teddy bear in her arms, buried her head in the bear's soft belly, and took a deep breath. Although it was all filled with the smell of laundry detergent, she could still feel her mother's breath from above.
Yolanda held the doll in a daze. The room was very big, and accompanied by her mother's teddy bear, she was not alone or afraid.
She let out a long sigh. She had lied just now. Her mother didn't know who her father was, and more accurately, her mother didn't even know who she was.
Yolanda closed her eyes and prayed. “Mom, if you can hear me, please bless me with all the best.”
