All Chapters of Why the Crocodile Tears?: Chapter 531 - Chapter 540

Dominic had thought plenty of times about how to get Chloe away from Hannah. But even then, he had been too honorable. He refused to use any underhanded tactics.He also worried that if he tried to force it, he might scare Chloe and make her resent him.He had even gone so far as to organize a meeting with Syntherra's top child psychology team, hoping to learn how to win a child's heart the right way.Dominic had only just finished his second class and stopped by Drunk Elysium for a quick meeting. Little did he know that he would run into Chloe.The moment Chloe called him Daddy, his heart skipped not just one, but two full beats, then kicked into overdrive.It felt exactly like lying down to sleep, only to have someone slide a pillow under his head. It was almost as if the universe had decided to deliver what he had wished for.Dominic couldn't help but smile, but the joy vanished in an instant when he saw Chloe's flushed cheeks and the tears welling in her eyes.And just like

"When did you get the DNA test done?" Hannah frowned.Dominic replied, "After you told me Chloe's birthday was in August."He didn't believe that Chloe wasn't his daughter, so he had gone ahead and done the test a while ago. He just hadn't had time to pick up the results until recently.As Grace stared at the report, her face turned grim, and her breathing grew shallow."Mom, are you okay?" Dominic asked."Don't you 'Mom' me! I'm about ready to pass out from anger!" Grace was fuming, practically shooting flames from her eyes.She pointed at Chloe, then at Dominic and Hannah. "You… You two…"She shut her eyes and slammed her palm on the table. She couldn't even look at them right now.They had kept a whole child from her.Hannah, seeing Grace on the verge of collapse, said calmly, "Mrs. Lancaster, don't worry. Chloe is my daughter. She has nothing to do with the Lancaster family. I'll leave with her now. Let's just pretend today never happened."With that, she reached for Chlo

Dominic's gaze bore into Hannah. His amber eyes surged with emotion.He had never once considered marrying Shirley because long ago, he had already decided who he wanted by his side as his wife.That person was Hannah.Dominic couldn't even explain what made her so different from those high-society debutantes and what it was that kept pulling him toward her. But he knew one thing for sure. If there were to be a woman to walk through life with him, he wanted it to be Hannah.Why else would he have gone to such lengths to get Grace to back down? She had started by insisting he get married, but in the end, she compromised, saying he could either marry or just have a child.Dominic never even wanted kids before. Ever since his sister went missing when they were young, he had developed a subconscious aversion to children.He didn't even like kids, but he still wanted to have a child with Hannah. That way, he could bring her into the Lancaster family, make her his wife, and leave Grace

Anathea realized that she could really laugh when she was too speechless to react."Well, too bad. I'm not into good-looking men now. Looks like you're out."A flicker of surprise and something oddly mournful passed through Gregory's eyes. "So, you like Theo's type?""It's none of your business," Anathea said curtly. Then she warned, "If you pull another stunt like this, don't blame me for being ruthless next time.""Sorry." Gregory lowered his eyes. His voice came out rough and quiet. With his head down, he looked like a dejected dog that had just been kicked.Anathea turned away and refused to look at him. She pulled out her lipstick and calmly reapplied the color he had kissed away.Just then, Xander's voice rang out from outside."Mom!"Startled, Anathea looked up to see Xander rushing toward her. He threw his arms around her. "Mom! Dad! What are you guys doing hiding here? I've been looking everywhere! Are you playing hide-and-seek?"Anathea instantly thought back to Greg

"Pursuer?" Fiona glanced at Theo, then turned her curious gaze to Anathea. "Nat, you and Gregory…"The mention of Gregory stirred something in Anathea's eyes, but it disappeared as quickly as it came. "We divorced."A flicker of surprise crossed Fiona's face.But seeing that Anathea looked healthy, she finally let out a breath and reached out to gently stroke her cheek. She said softly, "It's okay. Everything will pass. I will always support whatever choices you make."Smiling, Anathea gave a hum.Just then, a nurse came in to apply Fiona's medication. Anathea was about to help her sit up."I got it," Theo offered quickly, stepping in without hesitation. He took care of everything without needing Anathea to lift a finger.Fiona noticed the lively spark in Theo's eyes and how his gaze kept drifting to Anathea. They were full of open admiration and affection.A thoughtful glint appeared in Fiona's eyes."Mrs. Jacobson, have you eaten yet? Let me go grab you something," Theo offe
