Chapter 846 He is Your Biological Son

After getting off the plane in Lachstein, Elijah went straight to the headquarters of Complex Group.

Lachstein was eight hours ahead of Highside. It was time to get off work when he arrived. Employees were leaving

the office in ones and twos.

An assistant told him that William was in a meeting, which would end in half an hour. He nodded and went to

William's office to wait.

Half an hour later, William appeared in his office, followed by several executives who were reporting their work.

Upon seeing Elijah, William said something to the executives before they nodded and left. William walked to Elijah.

"What brings you here?"

Elijah stood up with pursed lips, trying hard to find the words to express himself.

Noticing that something was wrong, William frowned. "Did something happen to Leanna?"

Elijah shook his head and handed him the brown paper bag. "Earlier, you asked me to investigate Louis'

background. I found his birth records. He was born a year and a half after Leanna's mother and you separated. The

paternity test show's that you and Louis are unrelated."

William stared at the documents with solemnity. "Why are you bringing this up suddenly?"

Elijah explained, "Because recently, I found out that... the paternity test we did back then might be fake. As for the

birth records, I found and confirmed them with the doctor in charge. His actual birth date should be the seventh

month after Leanna's mother and you separated, which means he is your biological son."

William sprang to his feet, and his tone was serious. "What did you say?"

Elijah took a deep breath and continued, "I asked the doctor. She said Louis was born full-term, which means

Leanna's mother was already pregnant with him before you separated. The incorrect birth records were due to a

fire in the clinic's archives. The subsequent records were all added later. Perhaps the person who added the records

made a mistake or it could be Jethro.

"Some witnesses claimed that during the days when the clinic was on fire, they saw Jethro wandering nearby.

Whether it was on the day of the fire or during the reconstruction, he actively participated in helping, giving him

more chance for him to change the records."

William tightly held the documents in his hand and quickly untied the rope on it. He took out the paternity test that

showed a 99% probability of a biological relationship.

His face tensed. When he looked at Elijah again, his eyes were cold as he spoke in a deep voice. "Why?"

He was demanding the reason for the wrong paternity test result.

Elijah apologized, "I'm sorry. It was my negligence. I should have been more careful and done more tests back

then."

William suppressed all emotions and looked at him without saying a word. The office was silent and the atmosphere

felt heavy as the seconds ticked by.

After a while, William pressed his temples, feeling tired. "Do they know about this?"

Elijah nodded. "Yes, they do."

Silence dawned upon them again.

Elijah added, "I am willing to bear all the consequences and responsibilities for this matter. Please put the

investigation to an end."

...

When Leanna woke up the next morning, she had a missed call on her phone from 3.00AM. It was from William. He

only called for two seconds before hanging up.

Even if she didn't answer the call, she could feel his helplessness and powerlessness on the other end.

Aidan saw her staring at her phone and asked, "What's wrong?"

She snapped out of her thoughts. "My dad called me."

"Why don't you call him back?"

"It's still the middle of the night over there. I'll wait until it is noon there."

He questioned, "Do you think he can sleep?"

She didn't say anything. He could tell that it wasn't that she didn't want to make this call, but that she was afraid.

She did not know how to tell William about Louis' current stance.

It would be an unavoidable topic once the call was made. Leanna wasn't ready yet, hence the hesitation.

Aidan suggested, "If you don't know what to tell him. I can make this call for you."

She held his hand and shook her head. "I'll do it."

Aidan kissed her on the forehead and asked, "What do you want for breakfast? I'll go buy it."

"Garlic bread and mushroom soup."

"Okay." He put on his clothes and left

Meanwhile, Leanna sat on the edge of the bed, holding her phone. She took a deep breath before dialing the

number. The phone only rang twice before it was answered.

No one spoke over the line for a few seconds until she broke the silence. "You know about it."

"Elijah told me," responded William. "Does... he know?"

She replied, "I told Louis."

If William was uncertain about Louis' attitude before this phone call, he could now guess the answer from Leanna's

hesitant words.

If things had gone smoothly, she wouldn't have reacted this way.

William let out a sigh that was overflowing with exhaustion. "If I had known that your mother was pregnant, I could

have salvaged everything earlier."

Perhaps those incidents from 20 years ago wouldn't have happened either.

Leanna comforted him, "It's not your fault. No one could have expected this outcome."

William said, "I wanted to come back and see him, but after thinking about it all night, I decided to wait a little

longer until he's less resistant."

"Dad, don't worry. I will talk to him."

"It's okay, give him some time. We can talk when I come back."

She hummed in response. "Since things have turned out like this, don't grieve over it. Louis will gradually accept it."
