“Yes, yes, I remember your kindness! Back then, when Turner made a huge mistake, if it weren’t for your great kindness, I wouldn’t have been able to stay! Madam, rest assured, I will handle it as soon as possible!” Robert’s ingratiating voice came, making Brendon very uncomfortable.
Brendon wasn’t the kind of person who eavesdropped on others’ conversations. He was about to turn and leave when he heard Robert say, “Madam, I heard Ranita has returned…”
“She’s back, so what? Are you afraid of her?” Amiya sneered, her voice sharp when she mentioned Ranita.
Brendon paused, turning to look through the glass on the door at Amiya and Robert outside.
Amiya’s expression was disdainful as she said, “Back then, Brendon was soft-hearted and let her take that illegitimate child away, which was a waste of my efforts.”
“Oh right, back then I had someone draw Ranita’s amniotic fluid for a paternity test. Have you found the person who issued that report?” Robert had actually found the person a long time ago, but that person had some relationship with Shannon, with whom Robert had a cooperative relationship. So Robert had to pretend to be clueless, saying, “Madam, I haven’t found the person! It’s been four years, and now the child is over three years old. It’s all in the past…”
“Do you think I want to investigate? I’m afraid Brendon will check and find out something…” Amiya wasn’t stupid. She suspected that the paternity test result was probably fake, and as for who instigated it… Amiya had some guesses.
“Madam, are you worrying too much! Young Master…”
“Robert, I told you to do it, stop with the nonsense! Find the person as soon as possible and cover your tracks properly, do you understand?” Amiya finished and asked, “By the way, where’s Holly? Why hasn’t she returned from Steland?”
“I’ll make a call in a moment to ask, Madam, it’s getting late, you should go back to rest!”
Brendon silently left and returned to his study.
Thinking back now, that paternity test report from back then was completely untenable now. Ayaan looked just like him, and Brendon had asked Ayaan, whose birthday was in winter, meaning Ranita was at least three months pregnant when they divorced.
That paternity test report was wrong, but Amiya had done it. Who had the audacity to issue a fake report?
Brendon thought of one person.
“Caleb, help me look into something…” After Brendon finished speaking, Caleb immediately agreed, “I’ll do it right away, but this happened four years ago, so it might take some time.”
“Perhaps you can also look into Robert’s whereabouts. He’s been investigating this matter recently,” Brendon’s intuition was sharp; he felt Robert hadn’t been truthful with Amiya.
“Alright! I’ll find out as soon as possible.”
As soon as Caleb hung up the phone, there was a knock on the door.
Brendon opened it to find Amiya sitting in a wheelchair, looking unhappy. “You left Shannon halfway through dinner. What exactly do you want to do?”
Straight to questioning as soon as she opened her mouth.
Brendon looked down at Amiya, his tone cold, “Mom, I hope you’ll stay out of my private affairs with Shannon.”
Amiya became even more unhappy. “What do you mean by that? I’m your mother, and I can’t inquire about it?”
Brendon’s relationship with Amiya wasn’t particularly affectionate.
It was more about respect.
Ewan was unfaithful, while Amiya was deeply attached, two very different attitudes toward love that led to constant arguments and eventual separation.
