Chapter 401
Anastasia dialed up Duncan, setting a meet at the café next to the hospital. She also made a call to
Anthony at the orphanage.
Anastasia did not question Anthony. Instead, she spoke in a casual tone, “Thanks, Anthony, for the
effort in finding my daughter. She has been found now. I really appreciate it.”
Anthonyughed, “Congrattions then, it’s Layna, right?”
“No.” Anastasia replied in a nonchnt tone. “My daughter is someone else. Coincidentally, I found her.
I had a DNA test with Layna and unfortunately, she’s not my child. I’ve already contacted Duncan and
will be sending Layna back to him.”
Anastasia’s words left Anthony momentarily stunned because that man said that Anastasia would
ept Layna as her own. The only way for that to happen was to tamper with the DNA test. How could
it turn out negative?
Anthony was unsure of what went wrong, but it was none of his business. He was just responsible for
introducing the child to Anastasia. Afterwards, it had nothing to do with him.
Anthony chuckled on the phone. “Congrats. I just yed a minor role. Now that you found the child, the
wish is fulfilled.”
Anastasia politely replied, “Yes, thank you, Anthony. I’ll personally thank you some other day.”
“Alright.”
After hanging up, Anthony wiped the cold sweat off his forehead, mulling over the situation. After some
thought, he called his contact. “Mr. Salstrom, Ms. Jewell just called me. The DNA test results show that
Layna isn’t her daughter. She has found her own daughter.”
Joseph on the other end of the line was equally surprised. “How is that possible?” Joseph asked
sternly. “Are you sure Anastasia told you this? The DNA result showed that it’s not a match?”
“Yeah, she just called me. I want to inform Mr. Salstrom immediately.”
This result left Joseph dumbfounded. He had already bribed the testing agency. There could only be
one result – Layna was Anastasia’s daughter.
–
Joseph had nned it all. Layna was stubborn, arrogant, and vain. If she entered the Salstrom family,
she would cause a ruckus. Once Granny Anita found out, Anastasia and Herman wouldn’t have a
moment of peace. But now, the n had miscarried even before it was executed.
Joseph was at a loss, not knowing where it went wrong. He immediately called the testing agency to
confirm. As soon as Joseph hung up with Anthony, Dailey confronted Anthony. Dailey, a man of few
words, ced a gun on Anthony’s desk. “Tell me, who made you do this with Layna? Think carefully
before you answer. You only have one chance.”
The sight of a real gun turned Anthony pale. “Who, who are you?”
Dailey cocked the gun. Its barrel pointed at Anthony’s forehead. “This is a silenced pistol. The number
of people who died under its barrel is in double digits…”
“It was Joseph.” Anthony was petrified. “Joseph made me do it.”
Getting his answer, Dailey pocketed the gun and called Herman, “Boss, we’ve got him. It was all
Joseph’s doing.”Content protected by N?v/el(D)rama.Org.
Herman was somewhat surprised by the answer. Joseph’s reach had not only extended to hispany
but his family as well.
“Alright, got it.” Herman’s face turned icy. “Find out where Joseph is.”
“Yes, boss.”
Meanwhile, Joseph was in his office, unaware that Herman was onto him. He confirmed with the
agency. The results were correct. If the results were correct, where did it all go wrong?
Joseph scratched his head, murmuring, “This is strange.”
“Joseph, did you get the results of the task you were working on today?” Julie walked into his office.
Joseph nced at Julie, shrugging. “Anastasia found her biological daughter. The n failed.”
“How is that possible?” Julie questioned, “Who is her real daughter? You have everything nned out.
How could it go wrong?”
“There’s a saying that man proposes, God disposes. How would I know?” Joseph smirked. “Even
though Layna didn’t make it into the Salstrom family, Anastasia found her real daughter. The effect is
the same. Just sow seeds of doubt in Granny Anita’s mind. The Salstrom family is strict, so Granny
Anita will never ept Anastasia’s real daughter. Then, the Salstrom family will be like a ticking time
bomb, waiting to explode.”
