Chapter 125
Arielle’s drowsiness dissipated. She jumped right off the bed and approached Carter. “Are the results
out yet?”
“Yeah” Carter nodded as he regarded Arielle with mixed feelings. “Don’t mind me asking, but apart from
your own hair, does the other sample… belong to your father Henrick Southall?”
Arielle nodded, “Yes. That’s right”
Carter looked troubled, “The results… I’m not sure how to put this, but you should take a look at it for
yourself”
Arielle was quite mystified when she received the report, and appeared fummoxed when she finished
scrutinizing it.
It said that her genetic type did not match that of the other report, which meant to say that Henrick was

“This… How…” The rosiness that returned to Arielle’s face after her rest seemed to have turned ashen
again,
One reason why she did a paternity test was because Vinson had asked about it twice Another
stemmed from a vengeful impulse which arisen from her disappointment with Henrick
In her own heart, she had never doubted that he was her birth father, so the contents of the report
came to her as a bolt out of the blue
She had thought Henrick to be her only remaining blood relation but unexpectedly, even he was not
Who exactly am I then?
If not for the grains of childhood memories she had retained, she was almost beginning to believe that
she might not even be Arielle Moore.
At the side, Vinson, who also saw what was written on the report, felt it unexpected. Nevertheless, he
thought it logical as well
It seemed inconceivable to him how a flaw-riddled man like Henrick who bore not one sliver of virtue
could have had an almost perfect daughter like Arielle.
Not that he thought Arielle was actually perfect. It was just an impartial appraisal.
Moreover, when Maureen was around, rumors were abound within the Jadeborough circle.
Vinson scrutinized Arielle’s expression before he spoke, “Don’t be so upset, as this may not necessarily
be a bad thing.”
An anemic looking Arielle bit her lip. “I’m not upset… It’s just that I don’t know how I should feel about
this. If I’m not his biological daughter, then could my mother still be my own birth mother?”
Carter followed up right after Arielle. “Would you like to see the other report?”
Arielle looked up at Carter, a little surprised, “The other report?”
He then passed along the paternity report he had in his hand.

“A paternity test report for my mother and myself?”
“Yes,” Carter said. “We’ve kept your mother’s blood samples like we do with the rest of our hospital’s
VIP clientele, in case of emergencies. I was just as surprised at the results of the test between Henrick
and yourself, so I took the liberty of having my guys do one for your mother and you.”
Arielle could feel her own heart-rate pick up.
if it turned out that even her mother was not her own, then she would have lost all purpose returning
here. Even her existence would become devoid of meaning.
She was apprehensive about reading the conclusion of this report, and took a deep drawl before she
mustered the courage to do so
The statement of results was as follows: The alleged mother cannot be excluded as the biological
parent of the tested child. Based on the analysis as listed above, the probability of paternity is ninety-
nine point nine percent.
