Instead, the sudden, uninhibited sound of a man laughing in absolute relief filled the air.
Joey had worked as a bodyguard for the Dashiell family for over five years, and he had never heard his boss laugh out loud like this.
Usually, even a slight twitch of his lips or a mild smile meant Remington was in an incredibly good mood.
But roaring laughter? Unprecedented.
It was the kind of event you'd only witness once in a lifetime.
Joey had no idea what Remington had gone to the police station for, which made him feel even more uneasy.
Did the boss finally lose his mind?
Just as his imagination was running wild and a cold sweat was forming on his brow, a phone ringtone sliced through the laughter.
Remington pulled out his phone, his laughter subsiding.
Seeing the caller ID was exactly who he expected—Ray—Remington answered immediately.
Ray had taken the baby's hair for the DNA match, and to ensure absolutely zero errors, Remington had ordered him to stay there and supervise the entire process.
Clearly, the results were in.
As he pressed the phone to his ear, Ray's ecstatic voice poured through the speaker.
"Boss, that baby wasn't yours! The results are out—he has absolutely zero biological relation to you or Lizetta. Your son is definitely still alive!"
Even though he had already gotten the confirmation from Eartha's own mouth, hearing the scientific proof brought a profound sense of grounding and overwhelming joy.
Remington gripped the phone tighter and commanded in a heavy voice.
"Get back to Zion City right now. I don't care if you have to tear the city apart brick by brick, find Joy."
"Understood, don't worry, Boss. I'll immediately start sweeping Eartha's social circles again and track down whoever is helping her hide the boy."
"And keep a closer eye on the West family."

Does evil really triumph always above the good in this novel ? How comes Stella's evilness has no end? Does the author believes that by giving justice and importance to bad people like Stella will make this novel interesring? I am starting to lose my patience and ask when will the writer finally will realize that the protagonist is Lizetta and not Stella....
