Chapter 201
Miles didn’t mince words. “I suspect your dad had a paternity test done to see if your mom is actually Eliana’s motture. Honestly, what mother–in–law would ever tolerate a daughter–in–law like Eliana?
“Even with their own daughters, most mothers wouldn’t go this far. From what we know, Mr. Ashford has been secretly helping Eliana for years and even helped her get close to you. It’s like everything was orchestrated from the start
“Shut up!” Dylan roared, his voice trembling with fury. “If Eliana is really my mom’s daughter, why would the ever let the two of us be together?”
Dylan couldn’t take it anymore.
Uh, Miles thought. Seriously, you asked me to say it, and now you can’t even deal?
Miles pressed his lips together, unwilling to back down as he shouted, “Let’s be real. Mr. Hale was right. Even now, you’re still defending Eliana.”
Eliana is his one true love. How could he ever forget her? Miles wondered.
Dylan furrowed his brows, wondering, ‘I am not.”
The doubt in his eyes deepened. “What if it’s a paternity test between my dad and Yvonne?*
He suddenly remembered what Stella had said to him at the mall. “Are you really the heiress of the Ashford family?
Her voice was chill and detached, her eyes calm and steady, like she was running the show.
Dylan’s heart leaped into his throat.
After hearing those words that day, he quietly took a strand of Yvonne’s hair.
Dylan said, “There are two samples in the trunk. Take them and get a paternity test done, it’s between my dad and Yvonne.”
Why didn’t you say so earlier?‘ Miles thought, exasperated.
He’d already taken the samples over that morning, and now the results were out.
Miles sighed inwardly. ‘Man, being an employee is rough!”
“Alright, Mr. Ashford, let’s get you back to the villa so you can rest up,” Miles said.
Dylan closed his eyes, looking completely worn out. “Okay.”
He was dead tired. He really just needed a break.
‘Did Jasper and Eliana talk on the phone? Dylan wondered, his mind spinning.
Nova’s words flashed through his mind.
He suddenly snapped his eyes open. “Miles, check Eliana and Jasper’s call logs. And my mom’s, too.”
He was determined to find out the truth, clear his name, and stop Stella from doubting him.

Meanwhile, after Dylan left, Nova had already managed to dig up the call logs between Eliana and Jasper.

But just a few lines of conversation weren’t enough to pin anything on Jasper.
Serena glanced over at Liam, who was sitting nearby, completely absorbed in his book. She figured Jasper probably still had no clue what had gone down with Eliana at the Ashford family.
Serena narrowed her eyes, settled onto the carpet by the window, and fired off a message to Chris.
Serena: [Chris, tell Zoe that Eliana is Mrs. Ashford’s daughter. Make sure you hand it to her yourself.]
Chris: [Understood, Ms. Hale.]
Serena’s eyes grew cold. “Eliana, let’s see how you handle the hardships life throws at you now.”
Serena glanced at Liam, who was totally lost in his book, and chose not to interrupt him. She went back to her computer and got to work.
