Chapter 573
"Noah is your biological son. The three paternity test reports are out, and the results are the same," Mark whispered to Xavier.
Noah was Xavier's son-that meant both Noah and Zachary were his sons.Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.
Shock was evident in Xavier's otherwise calm demeanor. Yvette had disappeared with his sons for five years.
He remained silent, while the others-despite not knowing anything-continued to criticize Yvette and Noah.
Xavier said to Mark, "Bring the paternity test reports out."
Everyone, including Yvette, was shocked to hear about the paternity test reports.
When had Xavier gotten someone to arrange for a paternity test? Yvette had assumed that since he hadn't done the paternity test before, he wouldn't do it now either. Clifford took a copy of the paternity test report first before Shannon took another. Their icy expressions were gone as soon as they saw the results of the paternity test. "Noah is Xavier's son," Shannon replied with a smile.
Yet, Zayden and Marlene couldn't believe their ears. "How could it be? The timing didn't match!"
Marlene even asked, "Could it be possible that the report was tampered?"
Mark was speechless. "I had three different institutions to conduct the paternity test-the possibility of tampering is nearly impossible." "Who knows? She was able to disappear for five years, so how can we be certain that she did not tamper with the paternity tests?"
Yvette remained silent. She was occupied with the realization that Xavier had known that both Noah and Zachary were his sons.
Zayden continued after Marlene and said mockingly, "Don't tell me you're the one who tampered with it just to prove that you weren't cuckholded, Xav?"
Xavier would have beaten him up if only he could see.
Shannon actually couldn't trust the paternity test conducted by others. It just so happened that a call came right at that moment.
She took her phone and accepted the call-it was Gina Lennons, her assistant, calling to tell her about the paternity test result as well.
Shannon was completely convinced
by now. She said, "If all of you don't trust the paternity test done by Xay surely you could trust the one I did, right? Dwouldn't casually claime someone as my own grandson."

After that, she showed everyone the digital copy Gina had shared with her.
Zayden and Marlene completely lost their courage to question it. Jeremiah, who was standing close by, had a complicated look in his
eyes. He clenched his hands tight by his side.
The truth was out now.
Clifford scolded Zayden and Marlene, "There are four copies of paternity test results here. You shouldn't talk nonsense anymore!"
Zayden nodded begrudgingly, yet Marlene was stubborn. "Are we going to leave Malcolm just like this then, Grandpa? You weren't there to see how badly he was freezing!"
Clifford recalled Yvette's words. He did not reply to Marlene but called for his assistant, Ronald Gold. "Go and get Malcolm's bodyguard and driver."
He wanted to understand the entire situation before coming to a conclusion.
The bodyguard and driver came soon after. Their stories were similar to what Yvette had said.
The driver even told Clifford that he had gotten Marlene's permission before sending Malcolm over to Dewberry Manor.
"So, were you trying to get Malcolm to beat Noah up?" Shannon asked, staring right at Marlene.
Marlene stammered, at a loss of words.
"I won't forgive you if anything
happens to Noah!" Now with the tables turned and knowing that Noah was her biological grandson, Shannon started scolding Marlène. Yvette didn't even need to step in.
Just as Clifford was about to scold her, the door to the emergency room opened up.
Everyone tensed up as the doctor walked out.
The doctor asked, "Which one of you is Malcolm Lane's parents?"
"I'm Malcolm's mother. How is my son right now?" Marlene immediately stepped forward.
