Save Myself From Desperation by Cara Agnes novel Chapter 337

There was a hospital near the Herculy Restaurant. Since Lester had previously arranged for the DNA test to be done there, the director politely greeted Tyler when he arrived and then courteously ushered him in.

After all, the Pliskin family was one of the top four financial conglomerates. They couldn't afford to offend them.

Before the test, Tyler made a trip to the restroom.

Upon coming out of the restroom, he encountered a doctor in the hallway.

The doctor, dressed in a white coat, was on the phone, talking about how a recent family issue had cost a lot of money to resolve, leaving him in debt and without a penny to spare.

Tyler overheard that but didn't pay much attention until he caught a glimpse of hair samples in the doctor's hand.

Each of these hair samples was carefully placed in individual transparent small bags.

Tyler thought, 'Those bags... They look very familiar!'

His eyes widened in shock as he wondered, 'Aren't these the same as the hair samples Lester gave me? Could it be...that Lester had asked another doctor to do the DNA test for Ashley?'

As the doctor was about to pass by, Tyler quickly intercepted him and noticed the doctor's name tag that read "Gary Baldwin."

"Dr. Baldwin." Tyler greeted politely with a smile and continued, "The hair samples you're holding, they're for a paternity test, right?"

Gary gave Tyler a strange look. "Why do you ask?"

Tyler replied politely with a smile, "You're holding hair samples, and as fellow doctors, of course I can tell they're probably for a paternity test."

With that, Gary chuckled naively, "You have guessed it right. They're indeed for a paternity test."

However, Gary's right hand, tucked in his coat pocket, was holding a recording pen.

The pen was in recording mode, secretly capturing their entire conversation.

After hearing Gary's response, Tyler's heart skipped a beat, and he promptly asked, "Dr. Baldwin, is this paternity test for...the Pliskin family?"

Gary looked wary as if hesitating to respond.

Seeing his reaction, Tyler laughed heartily. "Don't worry, Dr. Baldwin! I'm not prying. I'm here at this hospital today because the Pliskin family asked me to conduct a paternity test for them. I just saw you with the hair samples that looked like mine and was curious, that's all!"

Gary seemed convinced and still smiling naively, "Mr. Morgan, since you're the Pliskin family's personal doctor, I won't hide it from you. These hair samples were given to me by Mr. Pliskin for a paternity test. He wants to see if Ashley is the lost heiress of the Pliskin family."

Tyler's heart sank upon hearing this, thinking, 'This is bad. Lester is having another doctor do the test and didn't inform me. He clearly suspects me. But why? I haven't slipped up. Luckily, I had accidentally stumbled upon this... I can still salvage this!'

In a flash of thought, Tyler stepped closer to Gary, lowering his voice as he said, "Dr. Baldwin, I overheard your phone call just now about being short on cash and in debt..."

With a stern look, Gary frowned, "Mr. Morgan, what are you implying?!"

"Dr. Baldwin, don't rush to conclusions! I just heard you're in need of money. We're both doctors, so we're practically colleagues. I just want to help you out!"

"Help me out? How do you plan to help me, Mr. Morgan? Lend me money?"

Tyler's face broke into a friendly smile, replying, "Not a loan, but a gift."

Gary looked at Tyler skeptically. "We don't know each other, and this is our first meeting. Why would you be so generous as to give me money for free?"
