Chapter 236 The Answer Was in Sight
Chapter 236 The Answer Was in Sight
"The woman with whom you had an intimate relationship five years ago came to work at the Four Seasons Hotel in March and disappeared three months later after having an affair with you for one night. Mrs. Lee disappeared in March as well and appeared more than a year later to give birth to a baby..." Bill didn't go on, but just glanced at Bright.
Bright looked stern and his eyebrows twisted together.
"They disappeared at the same time, and that woman didn't show up again after she disappeared. I would venture to guess that would this woman have anything connection with Mrs. Lee?" Bill just spoke out politely.
"What was the woman's name five years ago?" Bright asked.
"She was called Rosy Tanner." Bill remembered the name very well. It was this woman who had tarnished his brilliant life in the Lee family, and who made Bright doubt his abilities and made him feel incompetent.
"Rosy Tanner..." Bright pondered on the name. "How does it spell?"
"It is R-O-S-Y, and T-A-N-N-E-R." Bill took out another envelope and placed it on Bright's desk. "And I managed to find a picture of this woman. I can only find half of her profile and it's blurry, but at least it gives us a clue."
Bright picked up the envelope and pulled out a photo, which was indeed taken in low light.
The woman was wearing a thick makeup, and his impression of the woman's appearance was indeed the same.
"Get this picture tested to see who it is." The more he looked at the woman, the more he felt familiar with her. And then he remembered the woman who had made him addicted five years ago.
Now, however, he could feel the joy and satisfaction of that night with Rose.
It made him feel like they were the same person, but Rose's appearance wasn't like that of the woman.
He always thought he had thought it too much.
But now he felt deeply that he was not mistaken.
"Rosy Tanner..." When Bright repeated the name. And then, he smiled, and thought of something. How sweet Sky and Rose used to be. Even the fake name was a combination of their names.
Bright suddenly felt he was being fooled.
His eyes were as dark as the abyss, seeming to swallow everything.
If Rose was really the woman five years ago, then Doris... might be his own daughter.
At the thought of this, Bright was full of expectation and longing.
But it was also very uncomfortable. It felt so bad by being cheated and fooled, and he was disappointed at Rose! From NôvelDrama.Org.
He was like a fool from the beginning to the end!
He clenched his fists, closed his eyes and thought for a moment. And then he stood up. "I have something very important to do. Please handle the matter of the company."
"Mr. Lee, there is an important meeting today. You can't be absent." Bill reminded him.
"Now I have more important things to do!" Bright thought the answer was in sight, and he just needed to prove it.
Bright left quickly, and disappeared out of the office like the wind.
"Mr. Lee..." Bill moaned, looking at the empty office, "those old men are not so easy to deal with!"
Bright didn't care. He drove out of the parking lot in his Maserati and sped toward Doris's kindergarten.
As Doris' father, Bright was able to enter the kindergarten smoothly and took Doris away.
"Daddy, why did you come to pick me up so early?" Doris sat in the car and asked him, "Did you miss me too much?"
"Baby is right." Bright caught a glimpse of Doris's happy face through the rear-view mirror.
"So where are we going?" Doris watched the passing street scene outside.
"Dad will take you to a place first, and have a check together. As long as you cooperated with me, dad will meet one your wishes, maybe three." Bright said to Doris.
"I will listen to my father." Doris completely trusted in Bright. "I will do whatever dad wants me to do."
"Good baby." Bright smiled.
Soon they arrived at the appraisal center in a hospital of the city.
Bright had made an appointment before they arrived, so someone received them when they arrived.
"She was still young, so just get some sample in her mouth." Bright didn't want the child to suffer, so collecting the samples this way was best for the child.
"Yes." The nurse smiled at Doris and said, "Come with me, baby. We're going to get tested."
"I want to stay with Daddy." Doris didn't want to part with him.
"All right, we will be together." Bright reached out and rubbed her soft hair.
Bright and Doris finished the collection of oral mucosa sample in a sampling room.
Doris was as good as a lamb the whole time.
After the nurse informed them that they could leave, Doris held Bright's hand out of the hospital. Doris did not ask Bright why they did the test even after they went in the car.
Bright looked at Doris and wanted to tell her, "Baby, don't you want to know what tests Daddy brought you to the hospital for? Why don't you ask me?"
"I know you have your reasons, and you'll tell me when you want to. I believe you." Doris was very mature and thoughtful.
Bright felt distressed for her being so sensible, but he was also gratified because of her one hundred percent trust.
To be trusted by his own daughter was a matter to be proud of.
"Yes, father will tell you why the time comes." Bright asked the hospital to step up the process. They could know the results in two or three days.
If the results of the paternity test proved that Doris was his biological daughter, then that woman five years ago must be Rose!
The time nodes matched perfectly, and there may be no other possibilities besides this.
Of course, Bright hoped very much that Doris was his own daughter, who had his blood and the blood of the Lee family. He wanted her to live in the Lee family.
He wanted to give Doris more love and make up for all she had lost these years.
"Now tell me where you want to go. Daddy's not at work today and be with you." Bright was in good mood and said to his daughter.
"Can I go to where Dad works?" Doris surprised him.
"Why go to where Daddy works?" asked Bright.
"Because I want to see what Dad is like at work?" Doris fancied, "You must be serious, right?"
"Not just serious." Bright was totally different when he was at work. "Do you know what they call me?"
"What?"
