Chapter 494 Someone Else Is the Biological Father
"Have you read the test results carefully?"
Arthur picked up the document and took a glance at it before his expression suddenly fell.
With such a high similarity, there was no way they were mere cousins.
"Sorry to disappoint, but this is Elspeth and Miss Joneson's test result."
Elspeth subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief after hearing that this wasn't her test result with Callum.
"How dare you?!" Arthur took a glance at the doctor beside them. He immediately understood when he saw the
dazed and slightly apprehensive expression on the doctor's face.
When the doctor sent him the message this morning, he only briefly mentioned that the two were related by blood.
He didn't say how high the similarity percentage was.
Arthur only had himself to blame for being careless when he didn't ask about the exact number.
He coldly huffed. "So what? Doesn't this confirm that you and Elspeth are related by blood since it is proven that
they are related by blood, and it was your uncle who forced himself on Elspeth's mother?"
Even though he felt uncomfortable that this wasn't the couple's test result, everyone knew that there was no way
the duo could get out of this.
"And what if it's not confirmed?"
"That is impossible!" Arthur scoffed. "I know that you refuse to accept the fact, but it's settled. You can't run away
from it anymore."
"It might not be as simple as you think." Callum let out a low chuckle as a wanton look of interest spread across his
handsome face. "Who knows? You might have placed the wrong bet."
Arthur knew that Callum was a confident man who always carefully thought things through before saying anything.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHe knew that Callum probably wouldn't make such a big mistake.
Are they… really not related by blood?
Arthur found it hard to believe this.
Furthermore, any other possibility didn't make sense to him.
"In that case, show me your evidence!"
When Callum heard this, he unhurriedly took out his phone and made a call.
Someone soon rushed over with a paper bag in their hand.
"Mr. Winthrop, this is the test result you requested."
Arthur completely froze at the sight of that. He didn't think Callum would have the test done somewhere else to
avoid being seen by him.
After Callum took the bag, his gaze fell on Arthur's face. "This is our test result. You can take a look for yourself if
you don't believe it."
Arthur dubiously opened the bag. When he saw the test results that indicated Callum and Elspeth weren't related in
the least bit, he shook his head in disbelief.
"That's impossible! You and she definitely have blood ties. You must have done something to alter the test results!"
"I can't be bothered to do something to the results, alright?" Callum huffed and brushed off Arthur's remarks.
"How is this possible? You two are related by blood!" Arthur muttered under his breath. He didn't understand what
he was feeling.
Elspeth was gladder than anyone at this very moment.
She felt a load off her mind when she saw that they were not related by blood.
They wouldn't have to get a divorce anymore, and neither did they need to stay out of the public eye and force
themselves to be together.
This was good news worthy of the whole world's celebration!
"We can do the test again if you don't believe me, but only on the premise that you don't mess with the results."
Callum didn't even hesitate as he agreed to have a retest.
Arthur was completely convinced when he heard that, and he soon fell deep into self-doubt.
What the hell is going on?!
Meanwhile, Callum didn't want to waste his time on Arthur. After he kept both the test results, he pulled Elspeth
along as they went out the door.
As soon as they were out, Elspeth immediately threw her arms around his neck in excitement.
"I don't understand. Why does it show that we are not related?"
Elspeth was also in slight disbelief. For the two of them to not be related was a miracle to her.
"I'm not too sure either, but we are definitely not related."
That put a frown on her face. "That's weird. I'm my mother's daughter and yet, I'm not related to you. Could it
be…"
Elspeth suddenly had a strange and shocking thought.
Seeing the look on her face, Callum knew that she was thinking the same thing as him.
"There is a big possibility that it is exactly what we think."
Elspeth was hit by realization at that moment.
"Do you remember what Mom told me about her disappearing after she jumped? Could something have happened
while she was unconscious?"
Callum gave it a thought. "It has been a long time since then. I doubt she'll remember much. Also, we don't know if
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmshe can accept the fact. Let's look into it further before we do anything else."
Elspeth nodded and let out a smile. "But no matter what, I'm super happy to know that you and I aren't related like
that."
"I feel the same way." He leaned down and pressed a chaste kiss on her cheek.
Elspeth no longer felt reluctant to have physical contact with Callum. Instead, she felt more content than ever.
They went home as quickly as they could. Helia was in the middle of watching TV when her expression turned glum
upon seeing the young couple walking hand-in-hand.
"Didn't I tell you that your relationship can't go on?"
After all, it had been decades since Helia saw them. She didn't dare overstep her line by sticking her nose in
Elspeth's business. However, she couldn't help but warn her daughter.
"You won't have to worry about that anymore, Mom." Elspeth hesitated as she chose a more roundabout way to tell
her. "Callum and I aren't related by blood. We can continue to be together."
Helia was so surprised that she jumped to her feet. "How is that even possible? I gave birth to you after I was…
assaulted by Callum's uncle. How can you not have blood ties?"
Elspeth shook her head and took out the test results from her bag.
"We are not sure about the details, but that is what the results say. We aren't related, but I am related to you."
Now things were too strange to comprehend.
Helia couldn't believe her eyes, but she couldn't help thinking of other possibilities. "You mean… You might be my
and some other man's daughter?"
The thought of the possibility was like cold, piercing water that washed over Helia.
After so many years, she had come to terms that she was taken against her will.
But to know that Elspeth's father was someone else and that she had unknowingly done the deed with another
man…
It felt like a fatal blow to her.
