But coincidentally, the result of the DNA similarity between Dolores and Jolene was as high as 99.99. In the medical field, they were referred to as ‘mother and son’ who were biologically related.
It had to be clear that this result of DNA comparison was between Matthew and Jolene in the eyes of Jeffery and Marina.
They had no idea that Dolores had changed the cutlery. So, they thought that the samples they had obtained belonged to Matthew.
The result was passed to Jeffery, proving that Matthew was Jolene’s ‘son’.
It could be said that it cleared up all his doubts about Matthew’s identity.
Then there was only the matter of Marina seeing the close relationship between Dolores and Victoria.
Jeffery still ‘loved’ Matthew. He couldn’t, however, accept Matthew’s wife had a close relationship with Victoria.
To put it simply, Jeffery was now sure that Matthew was Jolene’s biological child. It was because all of the processes, from collecting Matthew’s sample to running the laboratory test, were handled by the person he trusted.
So, he had a lot of faith in the result, and he could be said to be very sure of it.
But he didn’t expect that Dolores to notice this first and exchange her cutlery with Matthew’s.
Dolores’ thoughts at that time were that Jolene had already passed away. The DNA comparison could only be performed with a living person. So, she exchanged her cutlery with Matthew.
It was because they would compare Matthew’s DNA sample to Victoria’s after they had collected his sample. She knew that Victoria and Matthew were biologically related mother and son. Jeffery would discover this if he performed the DNA comparison.
At that time, she thought that if she exchanged her cutlery with Matthew’s, then she was the one who would be compared to Victoria. The results of the tests would unequivocally show that they were not biological mother and child. Then nobody would discover the fact that Matthew was Victoria’s son.
However, Dolores didn’t expect that the sample that they had collected would be used to perform a DNA comparison with DNA left by Jolene before she passed away.
The test resulted in a ‘mother-son’ relationship.
That meant the test result using Dolores’ DNA sample and Jolene’s DNA showed that they were related by blood.
Dolores and Jolene were biologically related.
But this was by mistake. Nobody knew that the truth was like this.
Jeffery only believed that Matthew was Jolene’s son.
He hated Dolores now because she was close with Victoria, the woman who had destroyed Jolene’s marriage at that time.
Dolores, in his opinion, was indiscriminate, and he disliked her. He even thought that Dolores didn’t deserve Matthew.
So, he wanted Matthew and Dolores to be separated. The daughter of one of his colleagues, who was in the same unit as him, caught his fancy.
She was pretty, and he had seen her grow up. He was pleased with her personality and family circumstances.
Hence, Jeffery purposefully asked Matthew to help him take the document to allow him to have a chance to be in touch with her.
Matthew’s identity was shown there, and he was in a hidden marriage with Dolores now, except that he had personally announced Dolores’ identity to the company employees.
But everyone was curious.
After all, they didn’t hold a wedding ceremony, and there was no sign that they wanted to get married before.
Matthew was still an eligible bachelor in the eyes of the outside world.
He was the man that many noblewomen wanted to marry.
Despite the fact that Jeffery’s colleague’s family, the Chambers family, was not particularly rich, it was a powerful family.
The genealogy of the Chambers family was even more impressive than the Harris family’s.
Jeffery did not do this for his own benefit but instead for Matthew’s. Matthew’s future would undoubtedly be brighter if he allied with the Chambers family in marriage.
In addition, the girl was not only thoughtful and knowledgeable but also brilliant. She was pretty as well. But most importantly, she wouldn’t be as inconsiderate as Dolores and had a close relationship with Victoria.
She didn’t have anything Jeffery didn’t like.
Marina took the initiative to find Dolores this time, which was also Jeffery’s strategy.
Marina came to find Dolores, and Jeffery made an appointment with Matthew. Of course, not only Matthew but also another person, Chloe.
Jeffery’s aim was to cause misunderstanding between Matthew and Dolores so that they could be separated.
Jeffery’s original plan was to make an appointment with Matthew and Chloe to meet. At the same time, Marina invited Dolores to eat at the same restaurant. Then during that time, he excused himself from leaving and left only Matthew and Chloe there, and let Dolores see this, allowing her to misunderstand the relationship between Matthew and Chloe. This would create a contradiction between them, causing them to separate.
But Marina regretted it now. She missed Dolores’ gaze, “I’m already old. How can I still wear this kind of clothes?”
Dolores smiled while saying, “You’re not old. Just leave the matter of clothes to me.”
Dolores had already made up her mind. She was not fawning Marina, but because Marina treated Matthew well.
