Mommy, Who Is Our Mystery Daddy? Free Preview

"The doctor has told me everything. You're pregnant!"

Bella's world came crashing down as she heard her father’s words.

“No! That’s not true! I am still a virgin. How could I be pregnant?”

Bella never had sex with any man! How could she stand such a ridiculous conclusion from the doctor? She had to defend herself.

But no one believed her, and her father started pressing her about who was that man?

"Your fiance Andy staying abroad all the time. It's impossible for the baby to be his. So, who is the father of the baby in your belly?"

“No! I told you! I did not do it!”

Bella cried and stammered, but her words were met with another brutal slap from her father very soon. And her stepmother and stepsister have started to sneer at her.

"Oh Jesus, how dare this fat ugly pig cheat on Andy? I feel so sorry for him to have such a stupid fiancée.”

"Andy does not like her at all. I bet once he knows her scandal, he will definitely withdraw the engagement from her."

"Abortion is forbidden in our religion, so she had to give birth to this child. Then her scandal will be known throughout the city soon."

Andy Gray, Bella's fiancé, was the heir to the top wealthy Gray family. Due to some mysterious reason, Andy’s grandfather wanted Andy to marry Bella. But Andy did not like Bella at all, and he often teased Bella with the others.

Bella thought that once news of her pregnancy scandal spread, Andy would be eager to break off the engagement with her. But surprisingly, he did not show up until five months later.

"So, are you here to break off the engagement?"

In the study, Bella's father cautiously asked Andy.

"Shit! My grandfather still doesn't agree!"

Andy was very angry when he knew Bella’s scandal, especially that Bella has to give birth to the baby. He was sure that as Bella’s Fiancé, he had already been the laughing stock of the whole city.

Thus he strongly request an annulment with Bella. But again his request was refused by his grandfather. In the Gray family, his grandfather is the de facto ruler. In order to get the family's vast wealth, he must do what his grandfather wants him to do, including getting engaged to Bella.

"Bella is a stupid pig! Ugly, stupid and fat! How dare she run off and fool around with wild men after being engaged to me? Now everyone is laughing at me. I'll get back at her!"

Bella's father valued her marriage to the Gray family very much. Thus once he heard Andy’s request, he immediately assured seriously, "Andy, don't worry, I will send away Bella's baby as soon as it is born. That way she'll never see her baby and must be in great pain."

Bella had been sitting in the corner of the study room and listening to Andy and her father’s curse to her quietly for a long time. But upon hearing her father's suggestion to give away her baby, she immediately looked up in horror and spoke out against loudly.

"No!"

She couldn't believe it. This baby had already become a part of her, feeling its heartbeat for these past few months. She couldn't bear to part with him.

"No! You can't do this to me, you can't do this to my baby, I can break off the engagement! Dad, let's go to the Gray's and break off the engagement! I'll raise the baby myself, it’s not a burden..." Bella pleaded, kneeling before her father.

But before she could finish, Jaden coldly brushed off her hand and left the room with Andy, ignoring her pleas. No one cared about Bella who fell to the ground.

A sudden sharp pain in her belly—she was about to give birth!

Years later, Bella decided to take her daughter Mia back to her home town. On their plane heading to New York, Bella woke up to the feeling of Mia’s sweet kiss on her cheek.

"Good morning, Mommy. Do we come back to the United States to look for my Daddy?"

Hearing Mia’s question, Bella stretched lazily and spoke softly, "You know, sweetheart, you don't have a daddy."

Mia know Bella was lying to her again. She let out a sigh and hugged Bella. "Mommy, I'm already 5 years old. I no longer believe that I was a gift from Santa Claus to you. I'm sure that I have a daddy."

Bella fell silent, Mia's words stirring up memories of the tragic event that had unfolded five years ago when she gave birth to her babies.

On that day, she found herself lying on the study floor, surrounded by a pool of blood, consumed by loneliness and despair. The pain grew unbearable, and she eventually lost consciousness.

In her haze, she felt a comforting embrace and heard someone calling out her name. It turned out that was her aunt. Finally she and her baby was saved by her aunt just in time. However, she hadn't anticipated the horrifying turn occurred soon.

A fake doctor distracted her aunt, and a group of masked criminals broken into the delivery room. They mercilessly killed the doctors and nurses and made off with her newborn son. She managed to escape their clutches by pretending to be lifeless. After the gangsters departed, she gave birth to her daughter Mia all alone.

Bella thought these gangsters were set up by her father to fulfill his promise to Andy. In order to ensure the safety of Mia, she immediately decided to take Mia abroad with her aunt overnight.

This time, she returns not only to call off her engagement with Andy but more importantly to find her son, Mia’s twin brother.

After five years, her health has almost fully recovered, with the only lingering effect being fatigue. Bella, who was once overweight due to illness and excessive medication, has vanished from the public eye.

Simultaneously, her physique and appearance have undergone a drastic transformation. She has now blossomed into a striking beauty, with flowing locks, radiant wheat-toned skin, an ample bosom, and shapely curves. She realizes that wherever she goes now, she will undoubtedly attract attention.

A few hours later, Bella and Mia arrived at the Kennedy International Airport. Soon after they get their luggages, Bella's phone rang.

"Be careful of Aaron Wilson, Bella!" A familiar voice warned with a touch of malicious glee over the phone.

Bella was slightly surprised after hearing this, and then casually asked, "What is he up to now?"

"He's a hotshot bachelor in America and has issued a global directive to gather intel on you. It appears he's hell-bent on capturing you."

Bella replied, "So what?"

"My dear, he has a strong bond with his grandmother and has been concerned about her health. Since you are the most suitable doctor for her and now you have returned to the territory under his control, do you think you can escape?”

"Since he's so eager to find Rita, then let it be as he wishes," Bella said with a delicate smile on her face.

“Despite his authoritative demeanor, he possessed an undeniable charm and generosity. Such a man always left a positive impression on people. Perhaps, after meeting him, you might find yourself entangled in a romantic tale with him."

As the person on the other end of the line indulged in thoughts of Bella's potential encounter with Aaron, Bella abruptly ended the call.

She had no interest in this man named Aaron. Her main purpose for returning home this time was to find her son.

**

The summer afternoon was very hot outside and the sun was very blinding. As soon as Bella stepped out of JFK, she put on sunglasses for herself and Mia immediately. Then she glanced down at the message on her cell phone: white Mercedes Benz，last three digits of license plate number 357.

“Thank God, the car has arrived.”

Seeing the car waiting under a big tree not far away, Bella was very glad. She picked up Mia and jogged to the car. Then she pulled open the door, shoved Mia into the car, and hopped in herself.

It was nearly 100 degrees Fahrenheit outside. Staying outside for 10 minutes more, both Bella and Mia would get heatstroke.

“Aturo, we can go now.”

“Hi, who are you guys? Why are you in my car?”

Bella and the driver of the Mercedes spoke almost at the same time, and then Bella was surprised to realize that this man was not Aturo, the driver of the Uber car who messaged her, but her fiancé Andy!

Andy had come to the airport to pick up his new girlfriend, Melanie, and was startled by the sudden appearance of this woman in front of him. Bu he soon realizes that this woman is much prettier than Melanie. Blonde hair, blue eyes, and big breasts, just his type. So soon he snapped out of his surprise and whistled flirtatiously at Bella.

“Beautiful lady, glad to be of service, where would you like to go? I'll give you a ride.”

Andy's flirty behavior disgusted Bella greatly. He was really the same annoying playboy, nothing changed at all. Since Mia was here, Bella didn't want to clash with Andy. She hurriedly said, “I'm sorry sir, I got into the wrong car”, then she intended to push open the car door and leave.

But unexpectedly, Andy was one step faster than her, reached out to stop her, and continued to playfully ask, “Beautiful lady, may I buy you a drink? I know a nice tavern.”

“No! Andy, I don't want to drink with you.”

"What?"

Andy was shocked when he heard the beautiful woman in front of him call out his name.

Why did this beauty know his name? Why was there mockery and disgust in her eyes when she looked at him? Could it be that he had offended her before?

It was true that he was a playboy, sleeping with different girls every month. But a girl as beautiful as her, he would never forget.

Bella did not want to waste time on Andy. She picked up Mia and left immediately.

"Wait, Miss...

"Andy was about to pursue Bella, but the butler beside him timely reminded, “Sir, we have more important matters to do.”

Andy stared at Bella's figure, his eyes filled with deep desire. Then he turned to the butler and said, “Find out who she is. I want to she be mine...”

Inside the another car, Bella remained silent, her lips pursed and her brows furrowed.

Seeing this, Mia, holding her mother's hand, asked, 'Mommy, are you missing big brother again? Don't worry, we'll find him this time.'

"You're mommy's sweet baby. Mommy has found a capable assistant this time. We'll definitely find him,” Bella gently stroked Mia's head and said softly.

"Is he really powerful?"

"Yes, he's a legend in the New York."

----

An hour later, Bella had checked into the hotel.

Mia, exhausted from the lengthy plane journey, was sound asleep in her room.

Closing the door to Mia's room, Bella prepared to head to the hotel bar for a refreshing drink. However, just as she was about to leave, her mobile phone began to ring incessantly.

"Where are you?! Hurry back and sign the documents!" her father's voice exclaimed urgently.

Bella chuckled self-deprecatingly upon hearing her father curse at her.

Her father would never give up on the business alliance with the Gray family. Since she had already escaped the control of the Wood family, her father decided to transfer this advantageous marriage opportunity to her stepmother's daughter, her half-sister Yolanda.

Initially, the Grays were not willing the Wood to change daughters, but her father must have used some conditions to negotiate, and surprisingly, the Gray family agreed. Now that everything was settled between the two families, she just needed to go back and sign some documents.

Since this was the outcome she desired, she didn't refuse her father's request. Bella asked Mia's nanny to keep an eye on Mia at the hotel and then left on her own.

However, unexpected, when she was waiting for the elevator, she suddenly heard footsteps of a child coming from behind her.

She turned her head and saw Mia, with short curly messy hair, wearing a nightgown she hadn't seen before, walking towards her with sleepy eyes.

Unbeknownst to Bella, in her rush, she failed to realize that the child she mistook for Mia was actually a little boy who bore a striking resemblance to her.

Assuming that Mia wanted a farewell hug, Bella instinctively bent down and embraced the boy, planting a gentle kiss on his head as she spoke softly. "Sweetie, go back to your room. I'll bring you some ice cream when I return."

To Bella's surprise, she noticed that Mia seemed somewhat disinterested in the prospect of ice cream. Furthermore, Mia's usually lively eyes appeared somewhat lackluster today. It was as if Mia didn't even recognize Bella.

Perplexed, Bella furrowed her brow, intending to say something with Mia. However, before she could utter a word, Mia nodded at her and turned around, walking away in reverse.

At this moment, the elevator arrived. Thus Bella stepped into it,and didn't notice this Mia, who had just left her, walked into the presidential suite next door to hers.

The door swung open, revealing a tall, capable figure striding out with his back to the elevator entrance. His voice, deep and commanding, filled the hallway as he instructed the child, "Owen, go back to your room and sleep.

Five-year-old Owen turned his head to look in the direction of the elevator, thinking about the warm embrace from the woman just now, and the kiss on his forehead.

Owen's face tensed with determination. He had been strictly raised since he was a baby. Even the nutritional value of his meals had to be calculated.

Yet, a sudden longing overcame the child known for his self-control.

"Daddy, I want a mommy. Can you buy me a mommy?"

Aaron glanced at him, said nothing, and with one hand, carried him into the room before turning back to start his own video conference.

After the meeting, his assistant Lawrence on the other side reported, "Mr. Wilson, I checked the surveillance, and the little master only have a contact with the woman who lived next to your room today. ”

Aaron frowned and remained silent.

Lawrence, sensed the boss’s bad mood, quickly added, "And we have confirmed that Rita will return to the country this month."

Upon hearing these words, Aaron slightly parted his thin lips and coldly said, "Whatever cost, find her!"

The Wood family was having a big birthday party for Yolanda, Bella's sister,now.

Actually, Bella and Yolanda had the same birthday. However, the Wood family only held birthday parties for Yolanda. Thus everyone forgot about Bella.

At this moment, the door of Wood's house was wide open and the lawn was crowded with dancing men and women. All of them were friends invited by Yolanda.

Bella parked her car in front of the house, without attracting any attention, as none of Yolanda's friends recognized her anymore.

However, Bella didn't care. These people did not like her and used to bully her.

She nonchalantly walked over to a sofa and sat down to rest.

At that moment, a group of girls surrounded her sister and walked in from the terrace, still gossiping about her.

"Even if the fat and guly pig comes back today, she could do nothing. The Gray family has already agreed to let me marry Andy."

The other girls immediately echoed.

Yolanda, feeling overly proud, accidentally tripped on her high heels near Bella, spilling red wine on her shiny dress and exquisite shoes.

She immediately exclaimed in anger, "Ah! Who is blocking my way here?!"

Everyone followed Yolanda's gaze and then noticed a face so stunning that it took their breath away.

Yolanda, sensing the attention shifting away from her, became even more furious. It was her birthday today, and how dare this stranger be more beautiful than her.

Mockingly, Yolanda said, "Where did you come from? I don't think our family invited you."

Bella simply looked at her coldly without saying a word.

Yolanda glanced at the girl's clothes, which she couldn't recognize the brand of, and pointed at her own shoes, saying:

"I don't know you. Are you a servant to help me with my birthday here? This outfit of mine costs more than your salary for decades."

The others immediately laughed along, saying:

"Being good-looking doesn't mean anything if you're poor and working as a servant here."

"Don't you know who you tripped? She's the star of today's banquet, hahaha..."

"How about this, if you lick the red wine off my shoes, you won't have to compensate..."

"Lick it! Lick it!"

Everyone clapped and cheered.

Yolanda extended her foot towards Bella and said:

"Are you going to lick it yourself, or shall we help you?"

A malicious gleam flickered in Yolanda's eyes.

Today is her birthday, and she should be the most glamorous presence in the room.

This woman Not only is more beautiful than her, but also dares to come out! Her clothes and shoes are all custom-made for her birthday!

Ha.

Bella lowered gaze, slowly stood up.She picked up the red wine next to Yolanda casually pouring it over her head! It was done effortlessly.

Then she calmly said, "This is my apologize."

These idiots who were causing a commotion on the sofa woke her up from her peaceful sleep. Her little sister hasn't changed at all after all these years.

When Yolanda finally reacted and was about to scream, she heard a low, indifferent voice, "Yolanda, is this how you welcome your sister?"

Yolanda's movements froze abruptly, and she looked at her as if she had seen a ghost.

The girl was wearing simple jeans and a white shirt, making her legs look long and her waist slender.

Her hair was casually tied behind her head, with a few strands of hair covering her neck. Her skin was like jade, fair and clean, making her incredibly beautiful!

But that familiar voice...

Yolanda asked in shock, "Bella?"

...

Everyone was stunned, looking at her in disbelief.

Someone couldn't help but speak up. "The fat girl has slimmed down and looks so stunning?"

Everyone turned their gaze to Yolanda. She actually had a good appearance and could be considered charming. She had always been proud of her looks. But standing next to Bella at this moment, she seemed dull and tasteless.

The gazes of the crowd felt like slaps on Yolanda's face, making her feel hot and embarrassed...

She deliberately invited the fat girl to come back and break off the engagement at her birthday banquet, just to show everyone that she was much prettier than Bella.

But now, everything had failed.

"What are you all arguing about here?"

Jaden walked over with big strides, followed by his current wife.

When he saw Bella, his eyes showed shock, and he asked incredulously, "You...are you Bella?"

Yolanda noticed the surprise in her father's eyes as he looked at her sister. She quickly pinched herself, causing tears to stream down her face, and cried out,

"Bella, I know you had hoped to marry into the Gray family. You must be angry now that the engagement has been broken off. If hitting me will make you feel better, I won't blame you."

Her tears also brought Jaden back to his senses. He furrowed his brows in surprise and immediately swung his slap at Bella, trying to help Yolanda fight back. Unexpectedly, Bella suddenly reached out and grabbed his hand, mockingly stopping him:

"Daddy, did you call me back today just to hit me? Then I'm leaving."

Thinking of the business to be done, Jaden had to stopped fighting back for Yolanda, and then he whispered a reprimand to Bella:

"Bella! Andy broke off the engagement because you couldn't control yourself and became pregnant before marriage! It's your own fault. What does it have to do with your sister?"

After cursing Bella, Jaden took the family to the study.

Bella didn't care about Jaden cursing at her. Once inside Jaden's study, she even made a point of provocatively smirking at Yolanda's mom, her stepmom Wendy.

Then Bella found a couch and sat down. Her body made a trip back, leaning against the sofa with drooping eyelids, seemingly indifferent and contemptuous of everything. But those who knew her well understood that she was simply tired.

Jaden got straight to the point, saying, "Bella, your sister is going to marry into the Gray family on your behalf. So, why don't you give her the company that your mother left behind as a wedding gift? Just sign this transfer agreement for the company."

Bella's eyes filled with coldness.

Obviously, it was the Woods who didn't want to cancel the engagement because they wanted to climb the social ladder. The Grays had also refused to cancel it for some reason. However, was it all her fault now?

Everything in this family was inherited from her mother, including this house. Now they not only occupied the house but also wanted to take away the company her mother left for her. Their insatiable greed was sickening.

She raised her eyes slightly and coldly said, "No."

As soon as she finished speaking, Yolanda immediately screamed, "Bella, how dare you refuse?! You got pregnant before marriage and brought shame to the entire family. You owe us compensation! Giving me the company is already a favor to you!"

Bella glanced outside. The sky was getting dark, and she still had to go back and put Mia to sleep. So, she spoke directly, "I can agree cancel the engagement, but I won't transfer the company.Stop dreaming. "

After saying that, she stood up and walked out.

"Bella, stop now!"

Jaden roared, but Bella ignored him.

In the yard, Yolanda chased after her and blocked her way.

"Bella, don't you want to break off the engagement at all? Let me tell you, just because you've become more beautiful, it doesn't mean that others will forget about your scandal! You got pregnant before marriage and gave birth to a little bastard child.

So what if your mom was perfect? She died a long time ago. Everything she had is now my mom's.

And you, you're a shameless bitch. You only fool around with wild men and do not even know who the father of your own child is!"

With all her strength, Bella delivered a ruthless slap back.

Yolanda, who had been slapped, stood frozen in place, as if she had been startled.

Bella's pupils were very dark, like a demon crawling out of hell:

"Yolanda, I swear if you say one more word, I'll kill you!"

The thing tormented Bella most over the past five years, was that she did not know who Mia's father was. She convinced she was a virgin before she had Mia.

But who was the man got her pregnant? And how did he do it?

Bella returned to the hotel with these painful questions. Her mind was a mess. These questions upset her and made her feel insecure.

She had just reached the door of her room and was about to open it when she felt a sudden force pull her toward the stairwell. Not knowing what was happening, she struggled with all her might, trying to free herself from the power.

"Let me go! Who are you?! "
