Chapter 54 Doing It on the Spot

Just when neither of the two refused to budge, a loud and clear female voice suddenly rang beside them. “Oh, sis, why are you standing at the entrance?” Queenie walked up to Nicole with an obvious smile on her face. When she turned her head slowly and saw Joseph standing next to Nicole, she pretended as though she had just noticed his presence. “Oh, Mr. Mann, you’re here too? What a coincidence!” Then, she happened to glance down and saw the words “Paternity Confirmed” printed in red on the paper Joseph was holding. She darted a look at Nicole before turning her gaze back to Joseph. Then, she stepped forward and pretended to ask, “What’s happening between you two?”

Nicole’s face darkened slightly when she saw Queenie’s affected manners.

On the other hand, Queenie seemed eager to stir up trouble. Staring at Nicole, she said, stressing each word, “Could Mr. Mann have found out that he’s the father of your son, sis?” She had modified the paternity test report herself so that Joseph would go to Nicole after getting his hands on it. She had waited here for a long time before she finally saw them meet. It’s a shame that Colton has gone upstairs, or else the drama would’ve been even more interesting to watch.

Upon hearing Queenie’s words, Joseph played along with her. “Queenie, you’re here at just the right moment. Your sister gave birth to my son five years ago, but she never told me about it,” he said while feigning a hurt expression that made him look all the more pitiful.

Upon hearing Joseph’s words, Queenie immediately assumed a look of surprise. She shouted at the top of her voice, “How could you do that, sis? It’s not like the Mann Family can’t afford to raise a kid. Since Mr. Mann has learned about it, how about you let Hayden acknowledge him as his father?” Content © NôvelDrama.Org.

Seeing how the two people before her sang the same tune, Nicole couldn’t help feeling amused. Queenie’s voice was so loud as though she feared that no one could hear her, and she was eager to tell the world that Hayden was Nicole and Joseph’s son. Recalling what Queenie had said at F&M

Apparel earlier, Nicole easily surmised that the woman was ready to hold her back by using Joseph for fear that Colton might get seduced by her charm. It was a cheap and despicable trick, but it was indeed effective. She said in a cold voice, “Don’t you two find this laughable? Coming to Gardner Corporation with a paternity test report out of nowhere, insisting that my son is his? Where’s the proof of that?” Her eyes were frosty. No matter whether Joseph was Hayden’s biological father or not, he had no right to be Hayden’s father.

Queenie swiftly replied, “Sis, if you don’t believe us, we can take Hayden to do a paternity test with Mr. Mann. If the report is fake, we can find out who is to blame later on. How about that?” Only she knew that Colton was the guy Nicole had slept with five years ago, so she didn’t believe that Nicole would dare to have the paternity test done.

Nicole’s expression changed slightly when she heard Queenie’s words. She knew Queenie was certain that she wouldn’t dare to have the paternity test done, for Queenie knew what had happened between her and Joseph five years ago. But now that Joseph had come to her with the paternity test report, if she refused him in an unyielding manner, she would have no chance of winning once he took legal action directly. In that case, I’d better agree to have the test done first, she thought to herself while gulping a mouthful of saliva.

Keeping her countenance, she said calmly, “Okay. In that case, I’ll take Hayden to do the paternity test with you this weekend. If the results show that you aren’t his father, I’ll call the police right away on account of harassment.” With that, she turned around and entered Gardner Corporation’s building right away, disappearing from the two people’s sight.

Joseph looked all the more smug as he watched Nicole leave. He turned to look at Queenie with a smile, saying, “Miss Queenie, thank you for the matter this time. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have known that I have such a close relationship with Lisa.”

On the other hand, Queenie’s face paled somewhat after she listened to Nicole’s words, and she forced a smile. If she could find out in advance at which hospital Nicole would have the paternity test done, she would be able to do something about it. However, if Nicole were to have the paternity test done on the spot, she might be unable to continue hiding the truth.
