"Of course not! She's my rightful eldest daughter!"
Ernesto Scott angrily cursed.
"Calm down, calm down..." His friend paused for a moment, hesitantly asking, "Really not, huh?"
Ernesto Scott was baffled and yelled, "I've even gotten a certificate with her mom, didn't you know?!"
"How would I know that! I only met you ten years ago!" His friend, taken aback, was a bit bewildered, "Why didn't you say it earlier? People in the circle have been spreading rumors that she's your illegitimate daughter."
"How come I didn't know?!"
Ernesto Scott stared wide-eyed.
Friend: "..." How should I know that you didn't know?!
Taking a breath, his friend patiently said, "Since you brought Nora back, this kind of rumor has been circulating. Seeing that you didn't clarify, we thought it was true and didn't ask much... Wait, did you really get a certificate with her mom?"
"No kidding!"
"Then you better clarify!"
"How do I clarify?"
Ernesto Scott was anxiously pacing in circles.
