Just now Juliana had secretly sent a message to Kane to inform him that she would return to Lepus today. As she expected, he had left for Lepus.
Juliana was in a happy mood at the thought that she would see Kane when she returned to Lepus.
Kayla saw her happy on the plane and asked her, "Julia, why don't you look angry at all?"
When Juliana mentioned this to her this morning, Juliana looked rather indignant, aggrieved and sad.
"We've left in a fit. No need to be angry about it now. Anyway, Arthur will give in!" Juliana said with certainty. She knew Arthur too well.
Arthur seemed cold but actually soft-hearted. If not, she couldn't have used him without any misstep.
"You're so sure?" Kayla was a little bit skeptical.
"Well," Juliana nodded and said with a soft smile, "Actually, it's not just Sophie's fault. The baby is just too healthy to look like a premature one."
Juliana finished her speech and looked down at her son in her arms, who was sleeping soundly at that moment, oblivious to the disturbances of the outside world.
"She wanna take a DNA test just because of that?" Kayla flared up again at the mention of it. "She's thinking too little of the Knight family!"
Juliana's eyes were downcast. She knew that Sophie was not that snobbish, so she did not respond to Kayla.
The flight from Athegate to Lepus was just three-hour. Kayla had called her husband earlier to inform him. The family's driver had been waiting outside when she got off the plane.
"Where's Robert?" Letting her daughter and grandson get into the car first, Kayla asked the driver.
"His Lordship is at home," The driver answered in a low voice.
"Why didn't he come to pick us up himself?" Kayla asked, raising an eyebrow.
The driver did not dare to make a sound with his eyes down.
Kayla felt that something was wrong. Could her husband have had other ideas? Without further ado, they got into the car, the driver started the engine, and they were soon back home.
As soon as she saw the door of the Knight residence, Juliana was in a relaxed mood, wondering when Kane's plane would land, yet Kayla, who was beside her, was a little bit uneasy and led her into the main house with her.
In the living room of the main house, Robert was sitting on the sofa waiting for his wife and daughter. When he saw them, he stood up and faced them with a serious look.
Kayla's heart thumped at the sight of it. She hurriedly greeted Robert with a smile, "Robert, why didn't you come to pick us up if you were home?"
"Did you allow Julia to run back here?" Without taking a look at his grandson, Robert questioned Kayla first.
Kayla was extremely docile to her husband. His anger made her soften her voice. "You know all about it?"
"You are messing around!" Robert was furious, "Julia is in confinement. Why did you choose to come home at this point?"
Knowing that Robert had known the whole picture, Kayla could not help but be angry about Robert's criticism. She asked Juliana to hold the baby and sit down first, and confronted Robert.
"We didn't mess around. Do you know what Sophie has done? She wants to test the baby's DNA and suspects that the baby is not Arthur's! Whose side are you on?"
