Miss Josefina: Nobody's Princess novel Chapter 229

Ruby's mind was spinning, the images conjuring up from the pages in front of her.

She wasn't Billy's biological daughter!

What scared Ruby even more was the suspicion that Billy must have had about her identity to prompt a paternity test.

Had she not come to the hospital to collect Lauren's medical report, and stumbled upon the paternity test results Billy had ordered, her life would've crumbled to pieces.

Ruby never imagined in a million years that she wouldn't be the true daughter of the Antonio clan. If Billy found out, could she even continue to live under the Antonio roof?

After some thought, something still didn't add up for Ruby. She dug out a family portrait, scrutinizing the features she shared with Billy and Lauren, desperate to confirm her place in the family.

Ruby looked hard and long, and finally, a realization dawned on her—she didn't resemble Billy, but there was a hint of Lauren in her eyes and brows. A bold thought struck her, "Could it be that Billy's been cuckolded?"

Panic set in. The fear of being cast out by Billy and the prospect of him divorcing Lauren made her heart race.

Without the Antonio name, she wouldn’t be some rich lady. She'd be just another girl working to make ends meet.

With no university prospects and no prestigious identity, what would become of her future?

Ruby decided to call Lauren, spill the beans, and assured her, "Mom, the hospital must've messed up. I'll go sort it out."

Lauren's voice came urgently through the phone, "Ruby, let me handle this. I'm heading to the hospital now to sort this out."

"Okay, I'll wait for you here," Ruby hung up, her mind racing.
