Anne was taken aback. "Carly, what's gotten into you?"
Carly smirked as she replied, "Oh, con, Ms. Warwick. Drop the act. You want to marry my dad and take my
mom's place, right? Well, she's back now, and I'm on her side."
Anne chuckled. "I'm happy to see you and your mom getting along."
Carly scoffed. "Ms. Warwick, you really are good at pretending."
At that moment, she glanced around and asked, "Where's my dad?"
Anne didn't look at her. Instead, she gracefully took a seat at the dining table, picked up her cutlery, and began
eating breakfast as if she had all the tin the world. "Oh, Nigel left early this morning."
Carly could sense that something felt off. Normally, Anne wouldn't sit down for breakfast before she did.
Anne had always catered to her and went out of her way to please her. However, she was acting differently
today.
"Where did he go?" Carly asked again.
Anne took a sip of milk before saying casually, "I'm not sure, but Eren cby this morning. If I'm not mistaken,
he was holding skind of report from the hospital."
A report from the hospital?
Panicked, Carly quickly asked, "What kind of report? He's never mentioned anything like that before."
Anne chuckled as she responded, "I'm not sure about it. Letthink... Could it be a DNA test?"

Carly widened her eyes, and her breath caught. It felt like the air had been sucked out of the room. "He did a
DNA test? When?"
"Carly, why are you so worked up? Even if Nigel did a DNA test, there's no need to panic. You're his biological
daughter, the heiress of the Hamptons. No matter how many tests he runs, the result won't change."
Carly's face went ashen. She never imagined Nigel would go behind her back and have a DNA test done.
Right! It was last night!
That was when it happened!
He had touched her head, and she had felt a sudden sting on her scalp. He must have taken a strand of her hair
right then.
Anne glanced at Carly from head to
toe. "You know, it's strange. The moment Fiona comes back, Nigel decides to do a DNA test. Could it be that
she's the one who started questioning your background?
"But you have nothing to worry about. You are their daughter, unless you're an imposter. Then | suppose you
would be scared."
Carly stared at Anne. The woman
was still smiling, but it was the |
of smile a cat gives a trappelg
mouse, knowing it had
won.
A chill ran down Carly's spine. She was a bit afraid.
The DNA test results were out, so Nigel most likely went to see Fiona. If the truth
cto light, she was finished!
No! She couldn't let that happen!
She had to get to Jakeman Group!
Without a second thought, she turned and bolted out the door.

They were also very muscular.
