Right Person, Wrong Time novel Chapter 267

Chapter 267 Impossible for a Mistake to Happen

Colton didn’t answer this question directly. Instead, he turned to look at his mother and asked, “Mom, is this paternity test legit?”

Anna nodded and said in a serious tone, “It is. I asked Richard to do the test. His clinical skills can still be trusted.”

Colton fell silent at that. He knew too well about Richard’s skills as a doctor. Richard was known as a Teen Genius who had acquired a lot of medical knowledge at a young age. He couldn’t have done anything to make a simple paternity test wrong.

If Hayden was Colton’s son, the one he had physical intimacy with five years ago was definitely Nicole. Could it be that it was Nicole and not Queenie who saved me five years ago?!

It was just a fleeting thought that, oddly enough, suddenly brought Colton a glimmer of joy when he thought about it.

“Since you have publicly announced this, Mom, I am sure the public will be keeping a close eye. I need to find out the truth from Nicole.”

Anna couldn’t help but feel satisfied with how Colton was planning to handle this. She thought that every man on earth should at least have a similar sense of responsibility.

Colton paused briefly before he continued, “Mom, no matter if Hayden is my son or not, we should respect Nicole’s opinion on this matter. You shouldn’t reveal her identity without her consent.”

Anna stopped to think after listening to her son’s words. It was only then that she realized she indeed had been inconsiderate about this matter. Even if Colton agreed to it, she should still hear from Nicole whether she was comfortable with the arrangement.

With a nod, she said, “Okay. We will see how it goes after you talk to Nicole. I acted a little too impatient this time.”

Benjamin soon noticed the guilty look on Anna’s face, and he started to comfort her, “Don’t worry about my father. The old man might be stubborn, but he is not someone who cares about social standings, or else he wouldn’t have given his permission to Sal before.”

As soon as he brought up Sal, Anna whipped her head around to look at Colton. She was relieved to see that he seemed unperturbed despite hearing the name.

Discreetly, she poked Benjamin, who only then realized he had mentioned something he shouldn’t have. He changed the subject without missing a beat.

“It is the banquet for Wendy’s 18th birthday today. Let’s stop thinking about all these terrible things for now and spend the day happily. Don’t think about anything else.”
