He sighed, “Young master, I’m really sorry, because of my negligence, I almost let the Fischer family lose a blood relative. I really… have no face for you.”
“Uncle Jacob, this matter is indeed a bit serious, but since it is not the sample you sent, I naturally can’t pursue anything, just Eric, which must be strictly investigated.”
“I will,” he nodded. “But young master, my instinct tells me that Eric is not that kind of person.”
I raised my eyebrows. “Intuition is the most fastidious thing. What I want is evidence that he can prove his innocence.”
He nodded deferentially. “Okay, I’ll check it out.”
I turned and left.
The next step is to find a way to find the rat droppings hidden in the Fischer’s mansion.
Early the next morning, when I went downstairs, I saw Jacob standing on the porch.
“Good morning, young master.”
I nodded to him. “Yes?”
He stepped forward and looked upstairs. “Mrs. Fischer, she…”
“Still asleep.”
Jacob said with peace of mind, “Young master, I went to ask Eric. He said that he didn’t know about it. At that time, he went to the appraisal center with the sample I gave. I was afraid that he would lie, so he secretly checked the monitoring inside the car. At that time, he put the sample in the passenger seat and drove to the appraisal center. The car is the most private space. If he doesn’t change samples in the car, it seems even more impossible to change them in other places. I really think he didn’t do it. ”
I raised my eyebrows. “That Eric guy, fire him.”
“Young master.” He seemed surprised.
I said coldly, “I won’t allow anyone who is a threat to the Fischer’s mansion to stay here, and let him go whether he is innocent or not.”
“But…”
“This matter is settled, you can do it.”
Jacob looked at me for a few seconds, finally sighed helplessly and turned away.
I didn’t know how to communicate with Krista for the past two days, so I didn’t talk to her much.
After delivering lunch to Romeo at noon, I didn’t see Krista when I came back. The servant said that she had ordered the food herself, went out with the food, and looked very pale, as if she were ill.
I chased her out in a hurry, only to see her fainting in the car in the garage. I hastily sent her to the hospital, the doctor said that she was in poor health, and the confinement was not done well, leaving the root of the disease behind. At this moment, my heart is only distressed.
After an intravenous drip, she woke up leisurely.
As soon as she woke up, she was in a hurry to run out.
Under my pressure, she told me that today is her father’s birthday.
When I drove her to the cemetery myself, there was already the driver of the Fischer’s mansion waiting there in advance.
I carried her up the mountain to celebrate her father’s birthday. And when we went down the mountain, I carried Krista on my back again. She and I finally got back together. We didn’t want to torture each other any more.
As I approached the foot of the mountain, I said, “I have to tell you something.”
She circled his neck. “Well, what is it?”
“After you leave the hospital, take Romeo and go to the Fischer’s mansion to meet my grandparents.”
She paused. “What?”
“You heard me.”
“No, I mean… Grandpa has decided that Romeo is not the son of the Fischer family. Why do you want me to take Romeo to meet your grandparents?”
“Didn’t you let me do the paternity test myself and return your innocence?”
“Did you do it?”
“To be on the safe side, I found two institutions to do it. The final inspection results were consistent. The appraisal result obtained by Grandpa the other time,” I raised my eyebrows ” it was tampered with.”
“Who did it?”
“It hasn’t been investigated yet. Eric, an employee of the Fischer’s mansion, sent the sample at that time, but in the car, we didn’t see the record of changing the sample. Now, it is still unknown where the mistake went.”
“Eric? Is he one of Grandpa’s cronies? Why did Grandpa give him such an important thing to do?”
“Grandpa gave it to Uncle Jacob, who arranged for Eric to go.”
Krista’s pov
Jacob… My mind went blank. Did Jacob manipulate the samples?
If I have offended anyone in the Fischer’s mansion, it is really Jacob.
If it’s really him, then his courage is too big.
He did it to hurt me, regardless of the Fischer family’s heir.
Everyone says he is loyal to the Fischer family, but how can a truly heartfelt person do such a thing to the Fischer family?
I pondered for a moment and looked at Cheney again.
People in the Fischer family trust Jacob very much. If I rashly say Jacob’s bad side in front of Cheney and even other people in the Fischer family, I’m afraid… no one will believe me.
After all, my reputation is not very good, but Jacob is a great person in everyone’s eyes.
“Why are you so quiet?”
I sipped my lips. “I was wondering if I had done anything to offend Eric. After thinking for a long time, I realized that I didn’t even know him. Now, can I get rid of the crime of infidelity and lewdness?”
“Do you care what others say about you?”
“Do you think I really have a heart of stone? How many people can accept this slander of giving birth to another man’s child in marriage?”
“That’s why I want you to take Romeo to the mansion. If he still doesn’t want to accept the both of you, he really has gone too far then.”
I sipped my lips and smiled. If this was heard by the old man, I was afraid that my heart would not be too cool.
Soon, Romeo was discharged from the hospital. When I met Romeo at the hospital, the child told me that he called his fourth grandfather when he was ill and wanted his fourth grandfather to live with him. Now Uncle is estimated to have arrived in City A.
I wanted to scold him, but then I thought that there were many crises in the Fischer’s mansion, and I could rest assured that my Uncle would protect Romeo.
I told Cheney about it, and he looked at me, “Who is this Uncle?”
I said to him, “The place where my dad cut in line when he was young is on Butterfly Island. At that time, he didn’t adapt to island life. Thanks to his Uncle’s family, he spent those years safely. After leaving Butterfly Island, he always felt the kindness of that year and kept in touch with his Uncle’s family. In the past six years, on Butterfly Island, my Uncle took care of me as a daughter. When I was busy, my Uncle helped me take care of Romeo. Sometimes, when I was on a business trip, Romeo slept at my Uncle’s house. For me, my Uncle played the role of my father. ”
After saying that, I got through Uncle’s phone, and he said that he had already arrived at the hospital downstairs.
After I hung up the phone, I impatiently pressed the elevator several times.
When the elevator came, Cheney and I entered the elevator together. When we went down, Cheney said, “I will choose a hardcover house for them in City A. Go back and let this Uncle and his family move up.”
I looked at him. “Uncle has no family, his grandfather has passed away, his lover left him at childbirth when he was young, and since then he has never been in love for a long time. He has never married again and refused to leave the Butterfly Island. He said that he can guard the fourth aunt and the child who failed to meet him.”
I took Romeo back to the Fischer’s mansion to recognize his ancestors, and my Uncle followed me to live in the Fischer’s mansion. He was determined to leave but I secretly told him where Romeo and I were now. My Uncle didn’t trust Romeo to stay in the Fischer’s mansion, so he stayed to take care of Romeo.
Romeo is spoiled by his great grandfather and great grandmother, and Afra also likes Romeo very much. Everything is fine. It’s just that
Cheney and I still haven’t found the enemy in the old house.
