?Chapter 1466:


    “How can you say that? People look down on me because I’m an illegitimate child. They whisper in front of me, sneer at me, and throw me contemptuous stares. Yet, Andres is different. He treats me with kindness and respect, and he never once cared about my background. He truly loves me. He isn’t the way you imagine…” Sandra defended Andres


    Keira chewed slowly, rolling her eyes as she spoke. “Have you ever wondered why Andres is being so attentive to you? Shirie is filled with wealthy women and stunning girls, yet he chose you. A man with his wealth and status has met more beautiful women than you can imagine. Why you? If you don’t figure it out, you’ll only end up being tricked by him.”


    Sandra’s face darkened. “What nonsense is this? You sound exactly like the Harper family. Do you mean you don’t want me to date a rich man, either? Remember, the food you’re eating right now is courtesy of him.”


    Casting her daughter a sharp side nce, Keira pressed further. “So the Harper family disapproves of your rtionship as well? What exactly did they say? Tell me everything.”


    Sandra hesitated, unwilling to reply. Ernst and Brenna had already warned her that Andres had been with countless women, and Lilith echoed the same. At first, she had dismissed it as nothing more than a rumor.


    Sleep had escaped herst night as Ernst’s, Brenna’s, and Lilith’s words echoed in her mind. Restless, she had searched Andres’s name online and stumbled across news iming he had split with a third-rate actress just the week before, evenpensating her with a hefty breakup fee.


    The actress was strikingly beautiful, someone Sandra recognized from films she had watched.


    She felt ufortable because of the news.


    From morning onward, she had kept waiting for a chance to bring the matter up with Andres.


    Before she could find the courage, however, Andres had sent lunch to her door and told her he would take her to a nightclub in the evening to introduce her to his circle of friends.

    The thoughtful gesture had soothed her troubled heart. Everyone carried their own history, she reasoned, and Andres’s past with that actress belonged to yesterday. As long as he treated her with sincerity moving forward, she chose not to hold it against him.


    Keira noticed the flicker of unease in her daughter’s face and pressed again. “Tell me. What exactly did the Harper family say?”


    “With a touch of irritation, Sandra finally answered, “They said my boyfriend is nothing but a notorious yboy in Shirie.”


    The words startled Keira. “That won’t do. A man like that is only toying with you. He isn’t serious about being with you. You need to leave him at once.”


    Sandra pouted in defiance. “No. Andres treats me well. The others are only jealous, unwilling to see me happy, so they make up stories. Once you meet him, you’ll like him, too. I’ll bring him to visit you someday.”
