As William was sending Valeria back to Natalie’s mansion, they saw that Abbie’s car was parked in front of the villa.
Valeria was excited when she saw Abbie’s car. “Abbie is here to see me. Go to work, honey. You don’t have to worry about me since someone is going to keep me company.”
As Valeria was speaking, Abbie came out of the mansion and came over to help Valeria with a big smile on her face. “Is my son alright?”
“He’s good! Abbie, did you come just to see me?”
“Of course. I brought you something delicious. Let’s go in and eat something delicious.” Seeing how intimate Abbie and Valeria were, William smiled and reminded Valeria, “Take it easy, you two. Stay at home if you want to have fun. Don’t go out and cause trouble. I’m going to the office!”
“Go ahead! I won’t get into trouble with Abbie.” Valeria waved her hand and entered the villa with Abbie.
William, who was ignored, shook his head and got into the car. He said to Bobby, “Let’s go to the office!”
Abbie and Valeria walked into the living room hand in hand. At a glance, there were a lot of snacks and fruits on the coffee table in the living room.
Valeria sat down with a smile. “Did you bring all these?”
“Yes. Do you like it?”
“Of course. By the way, where’s my mum?”
“When I came over, you had just gone out for your checkup. Aunt Natalie asked me to wait for you here. She went to the office to deal with something.”
“That’s great. If my mum were around, she would be nagging me. I have calluses in my ears from all the nagging.” Valeria looked at Abbie as she asked this, “Did your mum continue giving you a hard time?”
“After hearing that I beat up Azalea, she was so furious that she called me to scold me. She even wanted to ground me at home.”
“And then? How did you escape?”
“Isn’t my brother around? With my brother protecting me, my mum could only let things go.” Abbie leaned backward and sighed. “Thank god I have you and my brother. Or not, I couldn’t imagine how my life would be.”
“How about Michael? Have you contacted him?”
“He went abroad. His grandfather asked Michael to accompany him on a business trip abroad.”
Valeria was surprised. “As far as I know, wasn’t Michael not interested in business? What’s with his sudden change of attitude?”
“He’s indeed not interested in doing business. It’s for my sake. Michael said that there will always be obstacles between us. If he can become someone like William, who is powerful enough, there won’t be anyone who could stop him. So he decided to start managing the company from now on.”
“He’s pretty great!”
“That’s because there’s nothing else we could do about it.” Azalea sighed. “Oh right. Do you know who I saw on the way here? I saw that bitch Azalea. She was coming out of a diagnostics center while covered up tightly. What do you think she was doing there?”
Valeria was stunned. “Are you sure you didn’t see wrongly?”
“No, I’m sure it’s Azalea!”
“That’s strange. Why did she go to the diagnostics center? Did she do a DNA test?” Valeria was shocked and stopped talking.
If Azalea went to do a DNA test, she must have doubts that she was not Madelyn’s daughter. But who told her that she wasn’t Madelyn’s daughter?
Abbie didn’t know what was going on, so she asked Valeria curiously, “Why did she do a DNA test?”
Valeria had no way to explain it to Abbie. Azalea’s identity was related to Braelynn’s identity. It was a big deal, so Valeria couldn’t simply tell anybody. So she changed the subject and said, “It’s from the top of my head.”
“From the top of your head? I thought you knew something. Oh right, not only did I see Azalea at the diagnostics center, but I also saw Paisley. Since both of them are not nice people, why do you think they were at the center at the same time? Do you think there is something suspicious going on?”
“I don’t know. Let me ask my husband.” Valeria then picked up her phone and sent a message to William. “Abbie said that she saw Azalea at the diagnostics center. Do you know what she was doing there?”
“I don’t know!” William replied.
“Honey, could it be that Azalea is suspecting that she is not Madelyn’s daughter? And she wants to verify her identity? By the way, Abbie also saw Paisley at the entrance of the center.”
“I got it. You don’t have to worry about these things. Have fun with Abbie. I’ll get someone to keep an eye on this.”
Since William said that, Valeria didn’t care anymore and continued to chat with Abbie.
Paisley brought Azalea’s report and went to the hospital. When she pushed open the door of the ward, she saw Danya sitting in a wheelchair and trying to move it.
Seeing this, Paisley was a little displeased. “What’s going on? Where are the caretakers? Where have they gone to? Is this what they should be doing after getting paid?”
Seeing that Paisley was angry, Danya immediately explained, “Miss, this has nothing to do with the caretakers. I have been lying on the bed for too long, so I wanted to get up and move around.”
“You haven’t recovered yet. What if you hurt yourself again after doing all these? I’m still waiting for you to come back and take care of me. I’m not used to being without you.”
“I’ll recover soon. Miss, wait for me a little while more.” Danya said as she noticed the report in Paisley’s hand. “What is in your hands, Miss?”
“This is a parent-child DNA report.” Paisley lowered her voice. “Azalea went to the diagnostics center to do it. I don’t know who she did it with, but I arranged for someone to switch the report.”
“Why did you arrange for someone to switch Azalea’s report? We don’t have any conflict of interest with Azalea, do we?” Danya did not understand.
“My brother asked me to switch it. Yesterday, I happened to see Azalea going into the diagnostics center secretively. I felt suspicious, but I couldn’t figure out the reason she was there. So I told my brother, and he asked me to forge a report and switch it with Azalea’s to observe her reactions. I then saw Azalea’s reactions when she read the report. She was overjoyed and very excited.”
“So the fake result is what Azalea wants?”
Paisley nodded. “That’s right. I don’t know who she did the test with. It would be great if we knew who the person was.”
Upon hearing Paisley’s words, Danya immediately said, “Miss, there’s something I haven’t told you yet. It’s about Madelyn.”
“Madelyn? What happened to her?”
“Isn’t Angel in the hospital now? Madelyn was arranged to take care of Angel in the hospital. When I was pushed to the sky garden by the caretaker to enjoy the scenery, I saw Madelyn at the sky garden alone with a swollen face. I was behind the rockery, so Madelyn didn’t see me. She was sitting on the chair beside the rockery and talking to herself. I heard her words clearly.”
“What did Madelyn say?”
“Madelyn was complaining about someone who had hit her. That someone was cruel to her also usually, as if the person wasn’t afraid of any consequences. She also said that the saying, blood thicker than water, was fake, and not to be believed at all! She did everything she could for the person, yet the person treats her like nothing. If Madelyn knew, she wouldn’t have exchanged the person, and the person wouldn’t be as wealthy as now. Let’s see how the person could be arrogant then!”
