Chapter 501: Paternity Test
Vincent Morgan lingered at the street parking space for a long time after dropping Nora Northwood off at the small villa.
His gaze was fixed on the passenger seat, his mind repeatedly recalling Nora’s reaction at the time.
Similarly, a rare Rh-negative blood type.
Perhaps, there really was some inseparable connection between this girl and Master Elaine?
Suddenly, a few strands of hair diverted his attention; these were left behind by Nora.
Vincent picked them up and rubbed them thoughtfully in his palm.
He had to admit, certain things were quietly unfolding in an unexpected direction.
He rolled up his sleeve and carefully wrapped the hair in a tissue drawn from the side.
He went overnight to a private medical appraisal institution.
Vincent specifically requested an urgent report to know as soon as possible, within twenty-four hours, if the relationship between Nora and Elaine was as he suspected.
...
Back at the small villa, Nora Northwood slumped bonelessly on the sofa, without even turning on the lights. The room was pitch black, her mind blank as she stared at the ceiling in a daze.
It was like the calm after a storm, except the calm was preparing for the next surge.
"Boom——"
A loud crash accompanied by a flash of lightning descended.
Nora snapped back to reality, pinching her aching waist. She had been sitting for too long in the fragrance room, and her body felt uncomfortable.
She had heard early on from Jasper Sinclair that Elaine once lost a daughter.
Later, she found out the girl was similar in age to her.
Different versions of the story had become repetitive, but Nora never considered that person to be her.
Naturally, she didn’t dare to fantasize about it.
If it weren’t for seeing those photos on Vincent’s phone, she probably wouldn’t have thought in that direction.
Matching panda blood, a keen sense of smell, an inexplicable sense of familiarity... everything was reminding Nora that there might be some connection between her and Elaine.
But then, what about May Lawrence?
It’s been nearly a year since that couple went to jail, and Nora had almost forgotten those unbearable memories.
As she continued thinking, she felt a splitting headache.
At once, she made a decision: it was time to visit her "good mom."
The next day.
After raining all night, it stopped promptly at six o’clock in the morning, as if making way for the working crowd.
Nora changed her usual route, heading to a desolate area where May was located.
Few people ever came here.
Perhaps too impatient, Nora didn’t notice a gray-white van trailing slowly but steadily behind her Bentley.
From inside the van, someone cursed, "What’s this crazy woman doing visiting my dad!"
Spencer Ford’s mouth was constantly spewing out foul words.
Jenson Sinclair, sitting in the passenger seat, frowned. His upbringing had made him intolerant of such profanity.
"Kid, calm down."
He interrupted Spencer’s tirade; catching Nora alone was a rare opportunity, and he couldn’t let a brat mess it up.
Recently, Jasper Sinclair had been suppressing his business, forcing him to lose several partnerships, leading to months of hard work ending in nothing.
He planned to use Nora to negotiate with Jasper.
Reaching this point was beyond his control; the company’s financial turnover was difficult, and his employees were increasingly dissatisfied.
