1). After having been interacted with her mum, about the photo, when Celia confronted Paul - I didn't understand what all that taunting and reaction was all about? I mean at this point, she knows that Paul is her half brother, not Father! So, why she is saying all the bad things to him, as if he was her father who left her?

2). Is there any indication or scene, earlier in the movie, suggesting that Paul knew about his father *beep* Jax?
If answer to above is that no, there is no indication or scene, then following question becomes relevant:-
Jax sending a photo to Paul's father after he left - could also mean that she send it for Paul or just wanted Paul's father to know about his grand daughter. After all, she didn't knew where he went.
So, what I mean to say is that if Paul didn't knew/remembered about his father *beep* Jax, he could have concluded, watching that photo, that he is Celia's father.

All along in the movie, I thought that Paul reached the conclusion(after seeing that photo) that he was Celia's father. So, exactly what was going on, in Paul's mind?

It's been a while since I watched this film, but I think Celia was upset because Paul had promised her he didn't know who her father was. When he found out he didn't tell her and she saw it as a betrayal of trust. As far as I can remember. I'll have to watch this again, it's been too long.

Yes, but not earlier in the film. It's part of the flashback dealing with why Paul left ... Paul's mother discovered Jax and his father having sex, Paul discovered it at the same time. This is what pushed his depressed mother to kill herself and ultimately lead to Paul leaving.

"All along in the movie, I thought that Paul reached the conclusion(after seeing that photo) that he was Celia's father. So, exactly what was going on, in Paul's mind?" - manuhatt3

I think we were supposed to come to that same conclusion, along with Paul, until it all gets explained later.
