Chapter 148 Hubby, I Was Wrong
Irene ain’t really expected much, but she just wanted to tease Gary a little. “Well, looks like you’re our of
Juck
she tore open the sealed paternity test envelope and pulled out the results.
She was silent for a moment, then tossed the paper on the table.
Leaning into Gary’s arms, Irene looked worn
Gary wrapped her up in a hug. “Don’t be upset. We’ve searched for so many years. We’ll keep looking. We’ll
find her.”
Irene froze for a second, then sat bolt upright, almost as if she’d just realized something. She grabbed the paternity test results. “Gary.. are you messing with me?”
In a fit of rage, she slapped Gary across the face.
Gary sat there, dazed, and stared at Irene. “What?”
Breathing hard, Irene threw the test results in Gary’s face. ‘Is this funny to you? Is this some kind of joke?”
Gary looked completely confused. “I didn’t touch those results at all, you know I wouldn’t…
Then Gary caught sight of the paper and stared at Irene in shock. “Where did you get this sample?”
Seeing Gary’s reaction, Irene’s expression changed. She stared nervously at Gary. “You swear you didn’t tamper with it?”
Gary raised his hand, looking anxious. I swear. I’d never joke about something like this–unless I wanted you to break up with me
Irene eyed Gary suspiciously. “Are you saying you want to break up with me?”
Gary let out a helpless laugh. “Come on, whose sample was it then? I really didn’t touch a thing. According to this, this girl is your niece. She’s your sister’s daughter.”
In a panic, Irene grabbed the report again, her voice rough and shaking. “She’s… it’s Adriana, the girl Curtis married…”
Gary paused, then spoke. “Take it slow. Are you sure there’s no problem with the sample?”
Irene’s eyes turned red. She shook her head, flustered. “I pulled out some hair when she wasn’t paying attention. I… I just thought she looked like my sister, so I took some hair…
Gary immediately pulled Irene into his arms. “Stay calm. Don’t panic now. This isn’t the time to lose it.”
Did I really find her after all these years? Irene was still in disbelief. “I need to see her.”
She jumped up in a rush to find Adriana.
“Irene, you’re not usually so impulsive. If that really is the girl, and you rush over now, you’ll spook her. If

Kidd she al done a totally by accident.
She’d spent years grabbing hair from any girl who looked like her sister and at last, all her hard work had paid off
“You’re right. We still don’t know who’s pulling strings behind the scenes, and that bastard Chandler hasn’t been caught yet… I can’t act rashly. I need to lay low for now.” Irene laughed, and tears slipped down her face as she laughed.
Her sister had been gone for so many years…
And now, she’d finally found her daughter.
“It’s Adriana. I can’t believe it’s really Adriana.” Irene was still trying to wrap her head around it.
“You could start by getting close to her. Take it slow”
Irene nodded. “Yes, you’re right. Hurry, help me check Adriana’s recent schedule. Even if I can’t tell her yet, I want to see her and protect her….
Gary smiled and nodded. “I’ll get someone on it right away.”
Irene threw herself into Gary’s arms, hugging him tightly.
Gary could only sigh. This was one of the rare times Irene showed him any warmth.
“Didn’t you say if this really is your niece, you’d marry me? Does that still count? Gary asked with a laugh.
Irene glared at him again. “You’re really sure you didn’t tamper with the sample?”
Gary got annoyed and grumbled, ‘Get off me. Don’t hug me.”
Irene clung to him anyway. “Hubby, I was wrong.”
