Chapter 674
Chapter 674 Biological Mother
Jeffrey said to Avery, “Ery, you''ve met William and ire before, so I don''t need to introduce them to
you, right? They''vee to the Moore residence today specifically for you.”
“For me?” Avery''s puzzled gaze fell on William and ire. “Is there something you need from me?”
ire''s lips moved slightly as she stood up from the couch, nervously handing Avery a test report.
The housekeeper took the baby from Avery''s arms.
Avery took the report and skimmed through it. The moment she saw the words DNA Test Report on the
page, realization dawned upon her.
She nced down at the bottom of the page, where the test results showed a near hundred percent
simrity with William and ire, the doubts that had been weighing on her heart seemed to dissipate
all at once.
“Mrs. Lambert...” she called out, her gaze filled withplexity.
ire looked at Avery, her eyes shimmering as she clutched the younger woman''s hand, unable to
conceal her excitement. “You won''t mind that I took some of your hair for a DNA test without your
knowledge, right? I''ve been suspecting your identity for a long time, but I didn''t dare tell you. I''m
actually... your biological mother.”
Avery''s hand was trembling slightly. ? 2024 N?v/el/Dram/a.Org.
The sight of ire''s tear-streaked face made her eyes well up with tears as well.
Avery then nced at William, who had always appearedposed and dignified. At that moment, his
eyes were simrly filled with anticipation and joy.
This couple turned out to be her biological parents.
In truth, Avery had known about this matter beforehand. However, when the moment came to openly
acknowledge their kinship, she still felt a tight knot of anxiety in her heart.
“Do you still remember me? I''m Heather. When you visited the Lambert residence before this, Aunt
ire said that she found her biological daughter. I thought she was joking, but it turns out you really
are my cousin. This is such great news!” Heather eximed, grabbing Avery''s hand.
“I...”
Avery looked up at ire, who was sobbing. “Ery, can you please call me ''Mom''?”
Seeing the look of anticipation on ire''s face, Avery couldn''t bring herself to say a word. Her rosy lips
quivered ever so slightly.
Even though she knew this woman was indeed her biological mother, she found it hard to change the
way she addressed her.
The woman''s jet-ck eyes resembled the dark night sky, with stars shining brightly within, pure yet
filled with helplessness.
ire felt a bit disheartened upon seeing Avery''s hesitant expression. Embracing Avery, she said
gently, “It''s okay. I understand that it''s hard for you to ept the truth right away. We still have a lot of
time, and I can wait. I''m content enough to have found my daughter in my lifetime.”
Quietly, William watched the reunion of his wife and their daughter, his heart filled with joy and relief.
We finally found our daughter. ire won''t have to live each day in guilt and self-me, and our
daughter will never be alone again.
Meanwhile, Nicole, who had been restless ever since they arrived at the Moore residence, watched the
scene of Avery and ire embracing each other with palpable jealousy in her gaze. However, she was
an actress after all, and she excelled at controlling her emotions.
She walked up to the two of them, handing ire a tissue as she pretended to be happy for them.
“Mom, congrattions to you and Dad for finally finding my sister. Our family is finallyplete. You
should be happy now that we''ve finally reunited. Please don''t cry anymore. I believe Avery wouldn''t
want to see you in tears. Isn''t that right, Avery?” Nicole''s smile was filled with innocence as if she were
really a sweet, unworldly youngdy.
If Avery wasn''t once a victim of Nicole''s schemes and experienced how venomous she could be, Avery
would''ve been deceived by her innocent demeanor. Others might not have noticed, but the chilliness in
Nicole''s eyes wasn''t lost on Avery.
Nicole, linking arms with ire, nestled her head affectionately against thetter''s shoulder. It was as if
she was asserting her dominance, implicitly telling Avery that an outsider like her could never ruin their
mother-daughter rtionship of nearly twenty years despite the fact that Avery was ire''s biological
daughter.
Nicole''s provocative gaze made Avery curve her lips into a smirk. She then hugged ire''s other arm
and smiled tenderly. “Of course. She''s my mom, too, so you''re not the only one who cares about her.
As her daughter, I too, don''t want to see Mom in tears.”
ire''s eyes lit up when she heard Avery''s words.
Gripping her daughter''s hand tightly, she stared at the younger woman in utter disbelief. “W-What did
you just call me?”
Avery blinked. “I called you ''Mom''.”
“Good girl! Good girl! Did you hear that, Will? Our daughter just called me ''Mom''!” ire, who was
usually elegant and reserved, behaved like a child who had just received candy, overjoyed and excited
as she threw herself into her husband''s arms.
Ignoring the others, William embraced his wife lovingly, sharing her joy. “Yes, our daughter has finally
epted us...”
Kendrick had never seen William and ire like this before. The couple was always known for their
composed and dignified demeanor. William, especially, was a masculine and unyielding man who
rarely showed emotion.
However, having found their long-lost daughter at that moment, they had be any other ordinary
couple and loving parents.
No one had any idea what they had been through and the arduous challenges they faced just to find
their baby girl.
In the meantime, Lily''s face was pale with a mix of devastation and humiliation.
Initially, Lily thought Avery was of low status, and the former was pleased with herself because her
daughter-inw was the daughter of the city council''s deputy secretary. That way, in terms of status,
she triumphed over Allie. However, never in her wildest dreams did she expect Avery to be a swan with
a status far more noble than that of Rachel.
Allie, too, wore a grim expression, but she dared not express her distress.
Avery didn''t have anyone to rely on in the past, so Allie could torment and bully her however she
wanted. Nevertheless, now that Avery had William as her backing, Allie would have to think twice about
picking on her. Hence, she was frustrated.
Jeffrey, on the other hand, was relieved. He was happy for Avery, but he was more concerned about
benefits. Avery had William as her support and backing now, and with such a powerful aid, Trident
Group wouldn''t have to worry about their future development anymore.
Looking at her loving parents, Avery waved to the twins, whispering a few words into their ears.
The two little ones were both stunned, their nearly identical faces filled with curiosity. Their eyes darted
from Avery to the older couple. “Mommy, are they really our grandparents?” they asked.
“Yes. I just got separated from them before this and didn''t know. I only found out today that they are
your maternal grandparents.”
Although the two children didn''t quite understand what was going on, they didn''t doubt their mother''s
words. They used to envy the other kids for having grandparents, so they were overjoyed to finally
have grandparents, too.
