Joseph simply went to the office desk and turned on the computer. He then opened his email and brought up the test results. "Take a look at this."
Nathan stared at the computer screen. At first, there was skepticism on his face, which was slowly replaced by bewilderment. A few minutes later, he was filled with resentment and fury upon realizing he had been played.
He did not ask how Joseph had gotten the test done, and neither did he care about what means Joseph had manipulated. He knew that Joseph had done this to protect him. Of course, he could differentiate right from wrong.
"I'm going to resolve this right now!" Nathan erupted in anger.
"Send your relatives off before you do that," Joseph advised, "Don't humiliate yourself."
Nathan gnashed his teeth and stormed out of the room. When Hugo saw Nathan rejoin them, he immediately noticed Nathan’s sullen and fierce expression.
‘What happened? Did he have some sort of falling out with Joseph?’
"Ladies and gentlemen, this family meeting will end here. I'll inform everyone of the wedding details later. It's getting late. I'll have the drivers give you guys a ride home." Nathan suppressed his anger and used the last tinge of his rationality to make arrangements for his relatives.
His relatives did not object. They had discussed almost everything about the wedding, after all, and it was normal for the Reeses to be busy given their big businesses.
After everyone had left, the ignorant Ava gently held Nathan's arm. "Have you finished your discussion with Mr. Joseph?"
Nathan withdrew his hand and looked at her aloofly.
A bad feeling grabbed hold of Ava's heart. "What's the matter, honey?"
Smack!
Nathan had never hit a woman before, but this time was different. He would never be able to let go of his anger if he did not slap her.
