Usually, paternity results took about three days to be out.
However, Clinton ordered his employees to work overtime so the results would be out early the next morning.
The results read: In line with the laws of genetics. The probability of paternity is ninety-nine point nine percent.
Clinton went into deep thought when he read the results.
What kind of results does Mrs. Farwell want? I have a feeling she wants a different result. If not, she wouldn't have met up with me in private. She would've been fine with the normal results.
Pondering momentarily, he quickly gave Sonya a call.
She had just woken up. Seeing it was a call from Clinton, she grew nervous.
“Good morning, Mrs. Farwell. This is Clinton. The paternity results are out.”
“Quick. Tell me the results. Are those boys Lucian's?” asked Sonya impatiently.
Clinton paused for a moment and reread the description of the test.
Finally, he concluded, “This result shows a positive relationship. The two boys are Mr. Farwell's kids.”
Sonya froze for a moment, unwilling to believe what she heard.
Recovering from the shock, Sonya questioned anxiously, “How's that possible? Could you guys have made a mistake? Is there a chance that the result's wrong?”
“Mrs. Farwell, the instruments used are the latest. Even our staff's standards are the best in Chanaea. There's no way this is a mistake,” answered Clinton. His words shattered Sonya's last hope.
Hearing that, Sonya hung up hastily, ignoring Clinton, who was waiting on the phone for further instructions.
What went wrong? Are the boys really descendants of the Farwell family?
Sonya was in shock. She kept recalling the insults and provocations she made toward the boys.
