“Mrs. Ashford, Dylan is at the paternity testing center,” the man repeated quickly.

Beatrice was instantly gripped by fear, her voice breaking. “Find a way to secretly swap the samples. Dylan cannot be allowed to do the paternity test, or we’re all doomed.”

She had no idea whose paternity Dylan was testing, but she couldn’t take any chances.

She thought, ‘Nolan had already been to the paternity testing center, so what was Dylan suspecting?

Was he doubting he was Nolan’s son?

‘No way!

‘Dylan is Nolan’s son.

‘What is Dylan trying to prove?‘

Beatrice gave a few quick instructions, then sat anxiously on the couch, waiting.

Eliana also heard the phone call.

Eliana’s nerves were shot. She thought, ‘If Dylan found out that he wasn’t Beatrice’s son, Beatrice and I were finished.’

Eliana’s eyes flashed with defiance. She thought, ‘No way. I can’t just sit here and let everything fall apart.

‘I have to be ready for anything,‘ she thought, lowering her eyes, searching for a way out.

Out of nowhere, Eliana’s phone started ringing on the table.

She jumped, freezing up instantly. Lately, every time her phone rang, her nerves were shot.

She recognized the Lennox family’s number right away.

She couldn’t bring herself to pick up.

Beatrice asked, “Why aren’t you picking up?”

Eliana’s voice was shaking. “It’s the Lennox family’s number.”

Beatrice’s hand was trembling, too. “Pick it up, quick. If you don’t, they’ll get even more suspicious.”

After a moment’s hesitation, Eliana finally picked up. “Hello?”

Mariana said, “Eliana, you went abroad with my son, and now you’re back, but he vanished without a trace. Where is he? And where’s my granddaughter?

I’ve been waiting for you two to come back and claim the family inheritance. If you keep staying away, don’t you want my fortune?”

Eliana instantly recognized Mariana’s voice.

She knew Mariana only called her because Mariana and Tyler never got along.

Eliana thought, ‘She had always acted like a witch, never approving of us being together.

At the mention of inheritance. Eliana’s eves sparkled. The Lennox family wasn’t crazy rich, but they still had millions

Back when they were overseas, Mariana kept sending them money, at least 600,000 dollars per year. Their spending was through the roof, especially since Eliana had a taste for the finer things.

Eliana thought, ‘Dylan is practically at death’s door. Why not team up with the Lennox family and grab every last cent of Dylan’s fortune?‘

Eliana said, “Mariana, you never wanted us together, so Tyler and I split up. Honestly, I have no idea where he is now. But I’ve already brought my daughter back with me.

“Since you’re her grandma, if you want to meet her, I’ll bring her to see you next week.”

After she finished speaking, Eliana looked over at Beatrice on the other side of the room.

Beatrice was stunned. She wondered, ‘What’s she talking about?

‘Take her daughter to see Mariana?

‘How could she say something like that?‘

Eliana chatted with Mariana for a moment, then hung up.

Eliana breathed a sigh of relief. No one had found out about her and Dylan yet.

At last, she finally had a way out.

After hanging up, she turned to Beatrice. “Mom, where’s my daughter? Mariana just called and said she wants my daughter to inherit the Lennox family fortune. There’s at least 30 million up for grabs.”

Beatrice scowled. “Are you crazy? I left that kid at an orphanage ages ago. How would I possibly know where she ended up?”

Eliana stared at her, stunned, her anger boiling over. “I trusted you! That’s why I let you take my daughter to the orphanage. Sure, maybe no one else knows where she ended up, but you should!

“She got sick, and I was too scared to keep her with me. If it hadn’t been for that, I never would’ve let you sneak her off to that place.

“And now you’re telling me you don’t know where she is? Are you saying I just lost my shot at 30 million?”
