Hitched & Hitched Again: A Comedy of Marital Mayhem novel Chapter 389

"Cross my heart and hope to die, I didn't mess with anything! This report is identical to the last one because I did it myself, no second pair of hands involved!"

Elysia backed him up, "I believe in Dr. Benjamin!"

Benjamin was so touched he almost wanted to give Elysia a big hug and cry it out.

Tarquin frowned deeply. Of course, he trusted Benjamin, but he also trusted the other three people!

Yet, his gut told him she was the one. It had to be!

There must be something fishy with this paternity test!

It's possible Benjamin goofed up somewhere in the process!

Tarquin turned to Elysia, "We've got four reports, and three of them point to you and Elijah being related. You still want to argue?"

Elysia stood her ground, "This isn't something you can solve with probability. If there's even one mistake, that means there's a problem!"

Tarquin stared at her for a moment, his expression turning dark, "We're redoing the test. Take new samples."

Pfft— Elysia nearly spat blood in his face!

She had just narrowly dodged a bullet and was quietly celebrating when he decided to twist the knife!

Damn it!

Elysia protested, "Redo what? I don't agree!"

She didn't want to go through the test again, especially if Elijah didn't have a chance to mess things up this time.

She suspected Elijah had sabotaged the test.

Tarquin eyed her, demanding, "Why not? Redoing it means either a strand of your hair or a vial of your blood. No big loss for you. If you're innocent, you should agree without hesitation!"

Elysia retorted, "Why should I? Are we best buddies, that I need to sacrifice my hair or blood to ease your mind?

To be frank, I've got a bone to pick with you. I'm not a saint who'll cater to your feelings despite my grievances. You're not my anything; I don't have to jump every time you say so!
