As the words fell, Tyler was struck like lightning. His eyes widened in disbelief. 'How is this possible?
'A mother and daughter reunited? How could it be?
'I repeatedly instructed Gary to falsify the test results!
'This useless crap!'
Tyler was angry and glared at Gary with boiling anger.
But Gary continued to smile innocently at him.
Tyler suddenly froze, realizing something. A look of fear crawled up in his eyes, and his back was instantly drenched in cold sweat.
'I've been tricked...
'I've been fooled by Gary!'
After hearing Lester's words, Karen got so excited that she nearly stumbled and fell. "Lester, are you telling the truth? Ashley and I are related by blood?"
Lester handed over the DNA test report with a smile. "Mom, see it for yourself."
Karen tremblingly took the report, her heart pounding like a drum. She felt a mix of anticipation and fear, afraid that Lester might be pranking her and it might be a false hope.
Brian had already taken another copy of the DNA test report from Gary's hand.
The test results showed that Brian was confirmed as Ashley's biological father according to the DNA test.
After reading his report, Brian immediately turned to look at his wife's, which similarly stated according to the DNA test, Karen was confirmed as Ashley's biological mother.
Ashley was their daughter.
She was their daughter!
Karen looked at the word "mother", her nose tingled, and tears streamed down uncontrollably, carrying endless longing.
"Ashley... Ashley...
"My daughter... Mom has finally found you... I finally found you..."
When Lester revealed the test results, a thunderous explosion echoed in Ashley's ears, like a dazzling white light bursting open, leaving her mind blank.
Matching genetic conditions...
A mother and daughter by blood...
Only at this moment, as warm and affectionate arms suddenly embraced her, did Ashley gradually regain her senses. Her delicate eyelashes blinked slowly.
Embracing her was her biological mother...
Next to her were her biological father and brothers...
Her family was not the Ramos family...
But the Pliskin family...
Karen saw Ashley standing there, utterly stunned, with no reaction. She gently let go of Ashley, her eyes filled with nervousness and panic. "Ashley, do you...not accept us..."
Karen's voice choked up, and she felt overwhelming guilt. "It's our fault we couldn't find you for so many years, and you had to endure so much outside..."
Everyone started crying.
Tears welled up in Karen's eyes and gently fell onto Ashley's hand.
Ashley's fingertips trembled as if her heart and fingers were connected. She heard Karen's choked-up voice and immediately shook her head.
How could she blame them...
She was just momentarily shocked, finding it hard to believe...
Looking at Karen's tear-stained face and seeing the strong sense of guilt and care in her eyes, it was a mother's love that she had never experienced before.
It was the intense longing of a mother for her child that Ashley had never had before.
Ashley's soul trembled.
She slowly raised her hand and hugged Karen back.
Valentin silently watched this scene. Ashley had finally touched the parental affection she had longed for since childhood...
Joseph kept flipping through the two DNA test reports. His mouth stretched into a crazy grin. Ashley had finally found her real family, and she no longer had to suffer because of the Ramos family!
And at this moment, the five Ramos brothers finally regained their composure from the shock.
How could Ashley be...
"It's impossible! How could Ashley be the Pliskin family's daughter?" Matthew couldn't bear to lose his sister. "The second DNA test report must be wrong! It's definitely wrong!"
Tyler, after hearing Matthew's words, had an idea. "Mr. Matthew Ramos, these two DNA test reports are different. There must be a mistake in one of them."
Lester smirked. "Are you suggesting that Gary's report is wrong?"
Tyler said, "I can guarantee that mine is correct!"
Since the attempt to bribe Gary had failed, Tyler decided to go all out to overturn Gary's DNA test results!
Jeremy immediately said, "Yes, it's clear that Gary's report is the one with issues! Ashley is undoubtedly our sister!"
Lester gave Jeremy a cold look, thinking, 'This idiot doesn't even realize he's being used by Tyler.'
"Tyler, since you keep insisting that Gary's report is wrong, let's listen to this recording."
Lester spoke, taking out a recording device without wasting any more words.
Tyler felt a pang of anxiety.
'A recording?
'What recording?'
Following that, Lester pressed the play button on the recording device.
"Mr. Baldwin, all you need to do is move your finger and change the evaluation result. After it's done, I'll give you 600 thousand dollars. Sounds like a good deal, right?"
