Julius pondered this. "That's quite a coincidence. It's possible, but the Rox family is massive, deeply rooted, and incredibly complex. I'll have him investigated for you."
Now that he had put the right people behind bars, his major tasks were basically wrapped up.
Next, he would accompany her to meet this Errol Rox properly.
Truthfully, he hoped she wasn't that man's daughter. The waters of the Rox family were far too deep and treacherous.
He didn't want her getting dragged into their messy, cutthroat internal feuds. It was simply too dangerous.
He would rather she be Frederick's child. At least with Frederick, he could keep a close eye on the man and ensure he posed no threat to Stella.
...
The next day.
Stella stared at the paternity test results Julius handed her, at a complete loss for words.
She really wasn't Frederick's child.
The DNA match between her and Errol was 99.99%, definitively proving they were biologically father and daughter.
How could this happen?
Did Frederick know?
Did her mother know?
If her mother knew, why had she never mentioned a single word about Errol?
And what about her grandfather? Did he know? If he did, why had he kept it a secret from her?
What exactly was going on?
She had always believed she was Frederick's child. Even knowing he didn't love her, she had chalked it up to Miranda's influence. It had never once crossed her mind that she wasn't his flesh and blood.
Stella felt completely unmoored.
