Chapter 391
The reason Arthur believed in them was due to some preconceived notions, but everything that happened that night was absurd in Hesper’s point of view. She did not believe a single word of what Simon and Theodore said.
“But the paternity test result can’t be fake, and Aunt Helen wouldn’t stand on your side for no
reason. Obviously, the things that happened tonight took her by surprise as well,” Matthew said, ” She must have done the paternity test a long time ago. It’s only after the truth was revealed tonight that she hesitated about whether it was more beneficial for her to disclose the result or
not.”
Hesper was stunned for a moment before saying, “So… I’m really one of the Lanes? I’m really Grandpa Arthur’s granddaughter and your biological cousin sister?”
Matthew nodded, his eyes finally showing a hint of warmth. “Hesper, we hit the jackpot in this gamble tonight.”
The tears that Hesper had been holding back the whole night finally rolled down her cheeks. She threw himself into Matthew’s arms. “I must be the luckiest person in the world, Matt…”
In the past, she had no family, no lover, and no friends. It was Matthew who held her hand and brought her out of despair. He was the one who gave her an identity and a new life.
Right now, this person turned out to be her cousin brother with whom she shared a blood
relationship.
The Lane Manor was in chaos. Rachael was found and Hesper went from being a legal heir of the Lanes to an illegitimate daughter. That being said, Arthur adored her very much, so her identity did
not matter.
Very soon, Rickard received the news. Benji could not help but sigh. “I didn’t expect Ms. Lane’s life. was so full of twists and turns. But luckily, it all ended well for her.”
However, Rickard fell into pensive silence when he received the news. After a short while of hesitation, he said, “I feel like there’s something off about this. There may be more to the matter.”
