It was already late night when Alfred called Vanessa, she just made Annie asleep.
She quickly picked up the call once she saw her phone ring. Then, she took her phone and walked out, she did not want to make noise that disturbed Annie.
Alfred’s voice was heard when she took the phone and walked to the living room.
“Vanessa…”
Vanessa stood still on the ground when she heard that.
She did not know what should she say, she also did not know how to deal with the call from Alfred.
Actually, she kept making herself busy recently. She played with Annie attentively and tried to do other things to distract her attention to not think of their divorce and their future.
But Alfred called her at the moment for what? Vanessa smiled bitterly.
“Why do you call me?”
Vanessa thought that was there any procedure she had to undergo anymore?
But Alfred breathed in deeply.
“Sorry, Vanessa…”
After Alfred said that, Vanessa’s eyes were reddened. She sopped and did not know what should she speak.
She only wanted to keep silent, she did not even want to know why Alfred apologized to her.
However, Alfred spoke again.
“My grandpa has found out the woman that looks similar to you. Her name is Elsie Clarke. I have interrogated her, she admits that the videos are recorded by her. I am sorry.”
After Alfred said that, Vanessa was shocked.
In fact, the woman really looked like her? Vanessa asked him.
“Does she look alike to me? Like twin?”
“Almost the same. Both of you have the same features but your temperament is a bit different from her. Both of you have the same height approximately.”
Did she really have a twin sister? Vanessa was confused.
She wanted to ask Alfred whether she could undergo the DNA test along with Elsie but Alfred apologized to her again via the phone.
“Vanessa, I have misunderstood you before and break your heart…”
Vanessa’s tears fell. It was true that the videos that Alfred watched belonged to others but the video on their wedding was real.
“Alfred, we have divorced now. You also confirm that I am not the one involved in the video. I don’t care about any other things, I just beg you not to disturb me again in the future, alright?”
Vanessa said that sufferingly. Actually, after a series of incidents, she knew that Alfred would not get over it even the video was proved to have no relationship with Vanessa.
The video during the wedding was a nightmare for Alfred forever.
Those video after it made Alfred even upset.
Vanessa knew Alfred for many years, she could feel him regret it but she did not want to live the previous life again.
She was clear that the man did not trust her anymore. Alfred felt regretful probably because he still had little affection for her or he was reluctant to leave her.
When they quarrelled or had a misunderstanding one day, the man would think of the humiliation during the wedding. Then, they would always have hatred for each other.
Even she was reluctant to leave him but she knew that she could not continue the relationship with Alfred anymore.
Alfred’s words stuck in his throat, he wanted to ask Vanessa to wait for him. Actually, he knew that he did not have the eligibility to say that.
Even if the incident did not happen, how could he ask a woman to wait for him unconditionally?
“I am sorry. I just cannot control myself to call you and tell you about the matter of Elsie. Vanessa, you should live blissfully, I will not disturb you anymore…”
Alfred promised her and wanted to hang up the call.
Vanessa quickly said out her doubt.
“Since the woman looks similar to me, can I undergo the DNA test with her? I am not sure that I have a twin sister, I want to see if we have a kinship.”
“Alright, you come to the hospital tomorrow afternoon. I will ask Elsie to meet you. Then, both of you undergo the DNA test.”
Vanessa thanked him and they hung up the call simultaneously.
The next morning, Georgia received Vanessa’s call early in the morning.
After knowing that Alfred had found out the woman who looked similar to Vanessa, Georgia confirmed that whatever she saw on that day was true.
“Vanessa, since you have to undergo the DNA test in the afternoon. Let me take care of Annie in the condominium. There are virus and a lot of people mixed up in the hospital, it is not good for Annie to go there.”
Vanessa nodded.
“Vanessa, you can come back and take care of Annie or bring Annie to Robert’s villa. I will be free in the morning. You can discuss with Robert first.”
After hanging up the call, Georgia told Robert about Vanessa’s matter.
“Robert, Vanessa meets someone who looks similar to her, she has to undergo the DNA test. I want to go back to the condominium and take care of Annie.”
Georgia did not want Annie to get in touch with Robert temporarily.
“You mean you have to leave me now and take care of Annie for a whole day?”
Robert asked gently, Georgia nodded.
“I don’t stay home recently. Annie misses me so much, I want to accompany her too.”
Robert smiled.
