Natalie opened the folder and pulled out the DNA test report. As she perused the report, a smile crept across her face and she let out an ironic laugh.
Twenty-six years ago, Harrison had an affair with Susan. Consequently, Jasmine was born half a year before her. Seven years ago, he even kicked her mom and all three children out of the house because of Susan.
Now that Susan had an affair with another man, Harrison got to have a taste of his own medicine. Natalie could not wait to share this piece of news with her mother when she returned to the country.
She slipped the report back into the folder. “Thank you, Mr. Greene. This was helpful.”
“You’re most welcome, Ms. Smith,” Ben replied with a smile.
After she paid him the remaining balance, Natalie left the café and headed to the kindergarten to fetch Connor and Sharon.
Two hours later, Natalie and the kids were about to enter their home when they bumped into Silas who was just leaving Shane’s apartment with a suitcase.
“Hi Mr. Campbell, what are you doing?” Natalie pointed at the suitcase he was carrying.
Silas did not expect to see Natalie here. He simply said, “I was just helping Mr. Shane pack.”
The man could not help but stare at Connor who was standing next to Natalie.
This child is a miniature carbon copy of Mr. Shane.
How could they be Sean’s?
“Packing?” Connor tilted his small head and asked, “Mr. Campbell, is Mr. Shane moving out?”
“Yes.” Silas nodded.
Sharon was rattled. “But Mommy, I like Mr. Shane. Will you ask him to stay please?” She said while tugging at Natalie’s shirt.
“Sharon, don’t be rude!” Natalie pulled her little fingers away and said to Silas, “I’m sorry, Mr. Campbell, that was really embarrassing.”
“It’s alright. It’s actually very sweet of them.” Silas waved his hands.
Silas did not think much of Sean, but he had to admit these kids were pretty darn cute.
