“Right.” Paul nodded. 
“Debra, Patrick, do you guys know what happened? When I found out this, I cursed at Adrian hard for hiding the truth. He was almost running away from me. How could he keep such an important piece of information from us?! 
“But soon after, Adrian explained the reason to me. I thought about it, and he’s actually right. When it comes to intelligence, Adrian really inherited Patrick’s genes,” Paul continued. 
Debra was anxious. “Don’t beat around the bush. Just tell us what Adrian told you!” 
Paul took a deep breath, carefully glanced outside to make sure Rebecca wouldn’t overhear what they were discussing in the study, then lowered his voice and explained it to Adrian and Debra. 
“Think about it; didn’t Becky used to have feelings for Theodore? 
“If we had told Becky back then that Janet’s child wasn’t Theodore’s, wouldn’t she have softened up and forgiven Theodore? What would we do then? 
“We have checked, and he’s been treating Becky pretty badly. 

“Besides, after observing them for some time, we all know the character and morals of the Edwards family. Even if Theodore didn’t cheat on Janet, their family’s character is still terrible. 
“Moreover, I heard they’ve been thinking of getting engaged to that…Smith girl recently. 
“In short, there are no good people in the Edwards family. If Becky lived with such a family, how would she be happy in the future? 
“Not to mention others, just watch their attitude toward the Smith family. Although Theodore is reluctant, he doesn’t refuse Michael and Helen’s proposal in the end. He’s been bringing Jenny around everywhere, acting as affectionately as a couple in the throes of love. 
“So Adrian reminded me that we mustn’t disclose this secret to Becky until she discovers it herself. Otherwise, if Becky softens up, she might get in touch with Theodore again. 
“Of course, if Becky finds out on her own, we shouldn’t interfere with her decision. Just let her decide everything.” 
Debra and Patrick understood, and they agreed with Paul. 
They thought, ‘Becky was bullied by the Mitchell family growing up, so she’s quite fragile. She hasn’t experienced much love, and she longs for it terribly. 
‘Lately, with the efforts and companionship of our entire family, Becky has become stronnan

Suppose they had told Becky that Janet’s child wasn’t Theodore’s right after they reunited. In that case, Becky might have indeed relented and gotten entangled with Theodore once again, resulting in more pain and suffering. 
As soon as they thought about the possibility that Rebecca might forgive Theodore and continue to be with him, being hurt over and over again, they couldn’t help but worry about Rebecca. 
“Let’s not tell Becky for now. After some time, when Becky is stronger and more confident, we will tell her the truth,” Debra said seriously. 
Paul nodded. “Exactly, that’s what Adrian meant.” 
As they talked, time passed by. Debra finally realized and hurriedly said, “That’s a deal. We’ll act as if we don’t know anything and mustn’t mention it in front of Becky. 
“Don’t lose the paternity test. Put it away for now. It might come in handy later,” Debra added, looking at the test result. 
Patrick nodded and turned around to put the paternity test into the safe and lock it. 
After Rebecca came back, she carried the children to their room to breastfeed them. 
Because taking care of two children was relatively tiring, she didn’t notice what Patrick and Debra were doing. 
After discussing with Paul, Debra and Patrick came out of the study and went to Becky’s room. 
She was originally angry, but when she entered the room and saw Rebecca breastfeeding the children, she couldn’t help but feel moved. 
She thought, ‘My Rebecca, she’s not really weak. She’s just been bullied by the Mitchell family since she was a child and has been starved for love. 
Just like a newborn swan straying into a duck pond, although she was ridiculed and picked on growing up, by the time she grows her feathers, and meets her true flock, she can learn to fly in no time with just a little effort. 
‘My Rebecca is a beautiful and proud swan, not an ugly duckling!” 
Rebecca also noticed Debra. She looked up at Debra, surprised. “Mom?” 
Debra smiled and went in, scolding, “Why are you feeding both babies at the same time again? That’s tiring. If you’re not busy, feed them one at a time so you don’t exhaust yourself.”

Rebecca helplessly said, “I can’t help it. They want to feed together, or else the other one will make a fuss.” 
Debra smiled helplessly, “Don’t spoil them too much, or they’ll get spoiled.” 
Rebecca busted out laughing, “Mom, they’re only three months old.” 
“Three months? They’ve caused trouble for you when they’re three months old. You need to teach them a lesson!” Debra feigned fierceness. 
Rebecca felt truly happy because Debra cared so much about her. 
After successfully breastfeeding the babies, Rebecca put the two down and felt relieved. 
Debra held one of the babies and said, “Sitting in a helicopter all day is exhausting. Take a rest.” 
“It’s okay,” Rebecca smiled. 
As they were talking, Rebecca’s phone rang, showing an incoming call from Lynn. 
When Rebecca saw Lynn’s call, knowing it was work–related, she stopped chatting with Debra. She turned around and picked up the phone to answer the video call. 
“Lynn!” Rebecca called out with a smile. 
Lynn said seriously, “Becky, remember that variety show you and Charlie filmed last time? Ben contacted me today, saying that the shooting went well last time, and he wants to continue filming a few more episodes. Do you want to go?” 
“She’s not going!” Rebecca hadn’t even finished speaking when Debra spoke up. 
Debra’s face darkened with displeasure. “Ben is no good. He’s capable of doing anything for ratings. Becky, don’t participate in shows like that!” 
Debra remembered how annoying it was to see Becky get manipulated multiple times by Ben during a previous show, with Janet also plotting behind the scenes. 
Rebecca remembered what Charlie had said to her after the shoot ended and hesitated for a moment. 
“Lynn, can I have few days to think about it?” 
Lynn nodded. “Sure, take your time. It’s alright if you don’t go. I have a few scripts here, so don’t worry.” 
Rebecca nodded with a smile. “Alright, thank you, Lynn.” 
After the call ended, Rebecca thought for a moment and wanted to call Charlie.

However, just as she was about to dial the phone, she suddenly remembered that Charlie might be acting now. 
So, Rebecca switched to sending Charlie a message. 
However, she didn’t expect Charlie to answer her message so quickly with a video call.
