Sarah left Elijah's luxurious residence and walked back to Bourne Estate.
Grace always hit the hay pretty early. Travis and his wife were often out painting the town red till the wee hours. As for Kaleb, he was either MIA at night or cooped up at home all day. So Old Manor was very quiet every day.
After getting back to her room, Sarah texted Kaleb.
Kaleb got the text and beelined it to Sarah's room.
"Sarah, our kid is gone. What do you still need from me?" Kaleb stood at the doorstep with an indifferent expression and said.
Thinking about the kid whose life was snuffed out, he felt a pang. If it was him who didn't want the kid, he could stomach it. But it was a kid he was looking foward to.
"Do you think I didn't want my own kid? That was my kid too! But I couldn't have it! If it was born, we would both be in a pickle!" Sarah pulled him into the room and shut the door.
Kaleb sobered up a bit, "What do you need me to do?"
Sarah: "I'm moving out. I thought I should say goodbye to you tonight."
"You're making it sound like we're never gonna see each other again. Didn't you agree to continue treating Makayla? And you took my uncle's hefty bank transfer..." Kaleb’s tone wasn’t too cheery.
"Kaleb, if I had enough money, maybe I wouldn't care if you were capable or not. As long as you can dance to my tune." Sarah looked at him.
"Sarah, what are you getting at..." Kaleb was losing it a bit.
"Just what you think!" Sarah yanked him by the collar to the bed and turned off the light!
...
Grace: "Sure!"
About an hour later, the chauffeur came back with the results.
The results were in a file envelope. Grace opened the envelope and pulled out the paper, her hand trembling!
After getting the paper, she suddenly realized she forgot her reading glasses and immediately went to get them. She hastily put on her glasses and scrutinized the paper. Seeing the results, she was so overjoyed that her face twisted a bit.
"I have a grandson. Elijah has a descendant. Ian is Elijah's son. I knew he must be Elijah's son. He's the spitting image of Elijah as a child. How could he not be Elijah's son? That Violette sure kept it under wraps!"
The old lady murmured to herself, her breath quickening as she grabbed her phone to make a call.
