Chapter 709
Eugene’s eyes widened as he looked at Lola.
Lola smirked proudly and said, "Nowyou're interested, aren't you? II
Lola then told Eugene that the test was done with Granny Atherton's hair and another girl who happened to possess one of the Athertons' relics. That girl had been confirmed to be Granny Atherton's biological granddaughter.
Eugene was thoroughly intrigued.
Granny Atherton had been looking for Summer desperately all these years, so if he managed to find out Summer and her daughter's whereabouts...
Eugene then asked Lola about the girl's name and found out that her name was Quinn, raised in the countryside.
Unfortunately, Summer had long passed.
It was fine, however, since being able to locate Summer's daughter was good enough to gain Granny Atherton's trust.
Ecstatic, Eugene immediately called his driver and decided to ditch the auction to go looking for his niece.
He got up to leave, but before exiting, he went back to Lola to ask, " You knew this was a great opportunity to gain Granny's trust. Why would you give me the credit?"
Lola looked at the test report sadly and said, "Granny won't even let me into Atherton Manor anymore. Even if I took the credit, it wouldn't be of much use. It's better to give it to you just so that you could look out for me in the future."
Eugene, the gullible man he was, happily responded, "No problem. Once I managed to please Granny, I'll remember what you did for me. But you're certain that the girl is my niece, right?"
"Why would I give you a fake result?" said Lola.
Eugene then left the auction house excitedly with the report, all while Lola smirked deviously and prepared herself to inform Quinn.
Eugene being involved in this would only benefit her plan.
'Your luck ends here, Catelyn!' sneered Lola.
"Hachoo!"
That was Catelyn's sixth sneeze of the day and definitely not her last.
Jolene passed her papers and joked, "Do you think Quinn and your mom have been talking smack behind you since you've offended them?"
Catelyn was annoyed by Jolene's harmless tease.
She had only told Jolene about Quinn's attempt at instigating her relationship with her mom, leaving out Quinn and Stella's relationship.
She had been feeling uneasy about the whole ordeal, too.
It was a weekend the next day, so Catelyn had planned for a family trip with Cedrick and the boys tomorrow. They were also going to take a family picture, too.
Just before she got off from work, she received a call from Cedrick.
Cedrick had an early day off that day and was waiting for her outside of the office building.
