Chapter 34
The banquet’s highlight finally arrived.
Rosalie finally showed up with Samson in a small suit in her arms and standing beside Anthony. At the very front of the crowd, Rosalle was all smiles with a hint of complacency on her face.
Rosalie thought about how Samson would be the eldest grandson of the Hoffman family after that day. Thus, she felt she had nothing to worry about, considering she was already halfway into the wealthy family.
‘So what if I saw Genevieve here just now?‘ thought Rosalie.
Rosalie was confident there was nothing Genevieve could change.
At that moment, Anthony’s father, Presley, walked to the center with a big smile.
With that, the banquet hall gradually quieted down.
“Ladies and gentlemen, I now officially announce that Samson is the eldest grandson of the Hoffman family. I will give 3% of the shares of the Hoffman Group as a gift to my eldest grandson!” said Presley.
Instantly, everyone applauded loudly.
However, someone suddenly shouted in shock,
Surprised, everyone fell silent instantly.

Then, Quincey walked over with a pale face, her chest heaved up and down. She glared at Rosalie fiercely and went over to
Presley.
With trembling hands, Quincey dragged Presley to the side with her back toward the crowd. Then, she handed over the documents in her hand.
Presley frowned and took the documents. His pupils shrank as soon as he read them, and his face changed instantly.
Presley turned to look at the child in Rosalie’s arms with a livid face. There was no longer love in his gaze but only anger and gloom.
Meanwhile, Rosalie was still over the moon about the shares. After all, 3% of shares would mean they would not need to worry about anything for the rest of their lives.
The next second, Presley clutched his chest as his face turned pale. He held the paper tightly and slowly slumped to the ground.
Quincey hurriedly shouted in a panic, “Someone call the doctor.”
The room instantly dissolved into chaos.

forward to help him.
Soon, Presley was escorted to the lounge to a doctor.
Anthony stayed behind to comfort the crowd, and everything went on as usual.
Still, Anthony noticed the change in his parents‘ emotions. He pursed his thin lips, loosened his collar, and followed them with a complicated look.
Meanwhile, Rosalie was still in shock.
After the banquet was interrupted, Rosalie could not help but feel a little uneasy and tightened her arms around Samson.
When Rosalie turned around, she noticed Anthony had disappeared. However, she saw Genevieve standing not far away and looking at her.
Genevieve looked at Rosalie with a meaningful smile. With glistening eyes, Genevieve raised the glass in her hand at Rosalie.
At that moment, Rosalie felt her heart sank.
Rosalie was a little flustered.
Rosalie glared at Genevieve and ran toward Presley’s lounge.
However, someone pulled Rosalie as soon as she entered the room, and she almost dropped Samson.
Before Rosalie could regain her balance, she was slapped hard in the face.
Instantly, Samson was so frightened that he began to cry.
Rosalie covered her face in shock and glanced at the lounge.
It turned out there e were no doctors in the room.
Instead, Presley expression.

Meanwhile, Anthony was looking at a piece of paper in his hand with a dark gaze and furrowed brows.
Rosalie took a deep breath and put Samson on the ground. Feeling aggrieved, her eyes welled up with tears as she looked at the cold Quincey.
‘Mrs. Hoffman, what’s going on? Why are you so angry?” asked Rosalie.
Quincey was so angry that her chest was hurting. At that moment, she even felt like killing Rosalie.
“How could you even ask that? You gave birth to a bastard and claim he’s a Hoffman. I’ve seriously underestimated you. To think of all the prominent figures we have invited for a bastard. What an embarrassment!” shouted Quincey.
Quincey’s voice was sharp and harsh. She had suppressed all her emotions until then and did not make a scene outside
earlier. However, she finally couldn’t stand it anymore.
Blood drained from Rosalie’s face. Her pupils contracted immediately as she cried weakly, “Bastard? Samson is a Hoffman. How can you not believe me and Anthony?”
Rosalie almost burst into tears after saying that.
Still, Quincey felt extremely disgusted as she looked at Samson, who looked very similar to her son.
Quincey never doubted that Samson was not Anthony’s biological child because of how similar the two were.
However, now that they had the DNA test report, Quincey realized how big of a lie it was.
Quincey turned her eyes away in disgust and looked at Rosalie angrily, who was still acting pitiful and in denial. Quincey
wa’s furious.
“You bitch. You’re still not admitting?” asked Quincey.
At that moment, Anthony stopped Quincey’s insult and interrupted, “Mom…”
Tears rolled down her cheeks as Rosalie ran to Presley and fell to her knees. Piteously, she said, “Mr. Hoffman, the child is truly a Hoffman. I’m not lying. Please believe me!”
Presley’s expressionless face suddenly changed. He narrowed his eyes, and his gaze darkened.
“In that case, let’s do another DNA test!” said Presley.
Rosalie was shocked and immediately looked up at Anthony.
Rosalie opened her mouth and was about to continue begging, but Anthony scrunched up the DNA test report in his hand
and tossed it aside.
“Don’t bother. Samson is not mine,” said Anthony.
Hearing that, the room instantly fell silent.
Rosalie’s face stiffened as she said, “Anthony, what are you talking about?”
