After Elsie Clarke said it, Ivan Simpson uncontrollably laughed.
“Elsie, your imagination is so abundant. How can I say? It is not impossible. Who knows if this ever happened that time? Right now, we have a few suspicions. It’s either that he really is Robert Simpson, only some things happened this year which have changed his personality; another possibility is what you have thought in which it really was his long lost twin brother. Another is, although it’s a bit far-fetched, but with the technology and skills now, finding someone who has a similar face to have plastic surgery. This is also not impossible… Right now, the Simpson family’s business is managed by me and Uncle Alex Simpson, but Robert is still the rightful heir. He has the largest share of the Simpson family. We are afraid that someone will come to take his place. Just as you said, if Robert really has a long lost twin brother, things are going to be complicated…”
Ivan sighed after he spoke. He wasn’t able to investigate deeply of it. The truth had gone by many years already, and could only wait for the result of tomorrow’s DNA test.
That night, Elsie and Ivan rested at the hotel. The two of them were lazy enough to go back to their places, and it might be more comfortable at the hotel.
The place where Ivan lived was very empty. At first, Elsie thought that it was Robert’s mansion, and now she was embarrassed to stay there. Also, just a person staying there felt so empty, and without Annie Cooke, she felt like an outsider. Elsie then simply chose to rest at the hotel, and then waited for the results from the hospital tomorrow.
When she woke up the next morning, Elsie knocked the door of Ivan’s room.
Ivan opened the door blearily. Elsie then saw that Ivan still hadn’t fixed himself. He had just woken up, and his face was still hazy from sleep.
“Why do you wake up so early? The results will probably be released in noon. It was so late last night; don’t you want to rest a bit more?”
Ivan asked droopily. He was standing at the bathroom as he cleaned, and Elsie sat on the sofa.
“After I slept last night, I thought about it over and over again. Won’t the DNA test be tampered by other people?”
Elsie asked worriedly. Ivan first was stunned, and then smiled after.
“Our family has been cheated of this matter for several times already. This time, we make sure of our preparations, and we are not testing it only in one place. These institutions are doing DNA tests at the same time, and will have the results in this noon as well. Even with the power of heaven, they can’t find out all the institutions we have tested. No one is better than me in this aspect of connections.”
Ivan smiled confidently, and Elsie just remembered. This was Dr. Ivan, an internationally well-known doctor.
“Alright. Let’s go eat breakfast first. I don’t know why I’m panicking. This matter certainly has not much to do with me, but I can’t sleep well last night. Robert is already back, but Georgia Lane still hasn’t woken up, and we still don’t know how to wake her up.”
Elsie sighed, and Ivan’s expression dropped as well.
His future sister-in-law and cousin had an accident together. In a year, his cousin was missing, and was unsure whether dead or alive. His sister-in-law was similar to a vegetative person. As he thought about it, he felt miserable.
Now, the suspected look-alike of Robert was coming back. Ivan was looking forward to it, and if Georgia woke up now that would be better.
When noon came, the both of them were sitting in hospital waiting for the results. Aside from this hospital, Ivan also did the DNA test in the other institutions he knew, and they waited for the final results.
Before the results came out, Elsie found that Jason Murphy and Jasper Holland had already come. They all sat together, and appeared to be a little nervous.
After a while, the door of the lobby was knocked. Elsie looked at the person entering, and she was flabbergasted.
Wasn’t this the person who was similar to Robert? Even much similar than herself and her sister Vanessa Cooke, this was probably Robert himself, Elsie thought.
She suddenly saw Robert entered while holding a woman’s hand. This woman looked beautiful, and seemed weak. Robert smiled looking at this woman.
“Boom.” Elsie then stood up.
“Elsie, sit down!”
Ivan said to her, and Elsie scowling asked.
“Have you forgotten to tell me about this? Do you just know it now, or have known about it before?”
“We’ll talk about it after the results of the DNA test come out, okay? Elsie, don’t be impulsive, what if that person isn’t Robert? We have to wait for the results to come out, so that we can judge about it, right?”
Ivan did not speak of this matter before, as he was afraid that Elsie would get angry. After all, Elsie’s relationship with Georgia was very well. Georgia was still lying in hospital bed, and still didn’t know if she could wake up.
If this person was really Robert, and he brought another girl he loved, then Elsie would definitely be mad after seeing it.
Elsie sat down with a sullen face. She was now so heated, and thought that all the men in the world were terrible.
Before, Alfred Chow tormented her sister, and it wasn’t easy to get rid of that scum. However, Alfred again deceived her sister, and she did not know what to do. She could only let Alfred got away with it.
Until now, she thought Robert was a nice man as he was together with Gigi, but big things happened during the wedding, and Gigi later had an accident. He could not even protect well his woman, and he himself even disappeared. That’s fine already. She was not particularly disappointed with Robert, just that she felt this was a bitter romance.
But now, this man dared to hold hands with another and be so intimate with her. If she knew that this man was really Robert, then she was going to be the first one to punch him.
