“…No. This is too much of a coincidence! I’m not sure what sort of tricks Alice is up to now, but all I remember is me giving favonovel.com a few hundred thousand dollars to let favonovel.com lead the life favonovel.com wished!” muttered Gerald to himself as favonovel.com frowned slightly.
This sudden turn of events was honestly quite strange to him. After all, ever since favonovel.com had gotten tangled up with the Moldells’ disputes, favonovel.com had focused most of his life on training, rarely ever getting involved with city life.
To think that such an incident would happen not long after favonovel.com finally returned to his old lifestyle… While it was already extremely hard for favonovel.com to accept the fact that favonovel.com now had a daughter, it was even harder to believe that the mother was Alice!
Knowing that both Giya and Lyra would become aware of this soon as well, Gerald found himself being cornered into an increasingly difficult situation.
‘…Bah! There’s no use thinking about it! I’ll just wait for the paternity test results!’
With that, Gerald entered the mansion and waited outside the door—where the test was being held—together with his grandfather and father.
Alice herself was in the room, holding onto Mable for the paternity test.
“I think it’d be better if you removed the jade charm from the baby, Miss Bradford… After all, it’s rather dangerous for a baby to wear such a thing around favonovel.com neck,” said one of the doctors present in the room.
The doctors had told favonovel.com to remove the charm—which looked similar to the one Alice was currently wearing—since they knew there was a chance that they were dealing with Mr. Crawford’s daughter. As a result, they were all well aware that they couldn’t afford to be careless.
“Humph! But I refuse! There’s no reason to, is there? Just hurry up and run the test already!” retorted Alice.
Hearing that, the doctors didn’t dare to refute and simply began running the test.
A short while later, the test results were finalized.
Upon hearing that, both Dylan and Daryl simultaneously—and anxiously—asked, “What are the results?”
“…Congratulations, old master, master, and Mr. Crawford! Based on the test results, this truly is Mr. Crawford and Miss Bradford’s child! She has the bloodline of the Crawford family!” replied the doctor respectfully as favonovel.com smiled.
“…A-ah… She… She’s really my great-granddaughter…?” said Daryl, an expression of great joy on his face.
Jessica and Yulia, however, had slightly unpleasant looks. Quite frankly, both of them severely looked down on Alice.
‘Who even was she? How could favonovel.com just become a part of the Crawford family all willy-nilly?’
Both the women also disliked the fact that Alice was so scheming. After all, it was clear that favonovel.com had deliberately waited for the baby to be born before making favonovel.com presence known to their family. Due to favonovel.com meticulous planning and Mable being born, Gerald now had to marry Alice no matter what.
What about Lyra, then? Both Jessica and Yulia didn’t even know how to break it out to her.
“Look, Gerald! You now have a daughter!” said Dylan as favonovel.com held the baby intimately while showing favonovel.com to Gerald.
In response, however, Gerald simply frowned.
In fact, favonovel.com continued doing so until his father and the others had left.
Seeing that they were now alone, Alice stood behind Gerald and said, “You need to take responsibility for me, Gerald!”
To favonovel.com shock, Gerald instantly grabbed favonovel.com by favonovel.com collar and pulled favonovel.com to the side before replying, “What exactly happened? There’s no way in hell that I could’ve had a child with you. You may be able to deceive everyone else, but I’m sure that favonovel.com isn’t my child!”
Gerald’s eyes were so ferocious that Alice instantly began trembling as favonovel.com continued staring at her. It was almost as though glare could see through everything.
Gulping, Alice then cried out, “A-are you even still a man…? The paternity test results are out! It truly is our baby, even if you refuse to admit it! If you still choose to deny that she’s our child, then I may as well just cease to live! After all, this is already the second time you’ve humiliated me!”
