“Darling,” said Kirk as he leaned closer and whispered into her ear as if to seduce her. “I can’t live without you. So don’t ever leave me, okay?”
Caroline was rather speechless. “When have I said that I’m leaving you?”
Kirk chuckled at her response. “I know you won’t leave me. I just wanted to tell you that I couldn’t live without you,” he said as he pinched her earlobe,
Caroline glanced up at him. “What’s wrong?” She wondered why he was speaking as if she was leaving him soon.
“Nothing.” Kirk lowered his head and rested his forehead against hers. “Are you hungry, darling?”
“No.”
“Well, I am,” he said and proceeded to bite her earlobe playfully. “I’ll make you dinner once I’ve eaten.”
His words left Caroline speechless once again.
At the Hacketts‘ residence, Marietta couldn’t wait any longer. With the help of her assistant, she contacted Aiden Hackett and explained her call. His expression changed immediately when he heard what she said.
“Ms. Weiss, you’re a globally renowned scriptwriter, no doubt. My family loves the stories you. write too, but I can’t just let you fabricate about what goes on in my family.
“Yvonne is my daughter,” said Marietta. “Take a look at this report if you don’t believe me.”
She handed the report that she just received two days ago over to him.
Aiden didn’t even spare it a single glance. “Yvonne is my biological daughter. I’m her father, so do you really think I’d be oblivious to this?”
Marietta had to admit that she also found it strange when the hired private detective told her about Yvonne.
Yvonne’s identity was pretty straightforward. She was known publicly as Aiden’s daughter with his wife, and wasn’t an illegitimate child.
Aiden had children, so there was no reason for him to adopt one from an orphanage. Strangely, though, this happened.
Marietta snapped back from her thoughts. She took out the copy of the adoption certificate that the private detective had given her.
“Take a look at this,” she said. “Your wife signed this back then.”
Aiden picked up the certificate to see that his wife’s signature was indeed on it. His expression
changed instantly. He hesitated for awhile before asking a housemaid to send for his wife.
Aiden’s wife was a picture of grace and sophistication. After being briefed by Aiden, she picked
up the certificate off the table to inspect it. “Indeed, this handwriting looks very similar to mine,” she told them, her voice doubtful. “But I’ve never signed this. Perhaps there was a mistake.”
Aiden said, “Ms. Weiss, did you hear her? You must’ve been mistaken.”
Still, Marietta wasn’t going to give in just like this. She and Yvonne had taken a maternity test, which confirmed their biological relationship. There was no mistaking it.
“How about we let the truth speak for itself?” Marietta suggested. “So that we can finally put this
to rest.”
“What do you mean?” Aiden asked.
Have Yvonne and I take a maternity test,” she said. “Your men will be responsible for it. What do you think?
Aiden and his wife exchanged glances. His wife smiled and said, “We’ll agree to it if you insist. It’ll save us from trouble in the future, anyway.” Original content from NôvelDrama.Org.
Aiden didn’t object to the idea as his wife had agreed to it. He told his butler to send for Yvonne.
The group headed to the Hackett’s private hospital together. The Hackett family didn’t own as many hospitals across the nation as the Morrisons. Still, it had quite its share of medical
resources
Hence, it wasn’t a chore for them to order a maternity test. Soon after getting a call from the butler, Yvonne arrived at the hospital.
