Chapter 281: DNA Test Results!


    Chapter 281: DNA Test Results!


    Nora hadn’t been surprised even when Ian said that she was a Smith, but she found herself greatly


    surprised in this instant.


    Justin also broke into a frown when he noticed her expression. He took a step forward and looked at the


    DNA test result with her.


    When he looked over, he also found himself stunned.


    The two exchanged a look. Obviously, they hadn’t expected such a result.


    The DNA test was done for Nora and Ian to verify whether they were father and daughter. Neither of


    them was surprised to see that.


    However, the results stated that the two shared a 99.8% DNA simrity. Therefore, they were


    scientifically recognized as uncle and niece.


    DNA simrity between a father and daughter was as high as 99.99%. Nora and Ian’s parent-child DNA


    test results were very close, yet fell outside the range. Therefore, they were ssified as uncle and niece


    instead.


    In other words, Nora’s father wasn’t Ian but one of his brothers instead?


    Nora’s eyes widened, and she looked at Ian in disbelief. He had a very awful look on his face at the


    moment, and he gave off an air of despondence.


    When Yvette left back then, she had told him that she didn’t love him anymore. She said that she had


    fallen in love with someone else, and asked him to forget her.


    She had left after that.


    He hadn’t believed her at first, but when he saw the DNA test report, he had suddenly understood


    something.


    As it turned out, the other man had been none other than one of his brothers!


    Was it also for that reason that Yvette had chosen to leave? Because she felt that she couldn’t face him


    anymore?


    If it were someone else instead, she wouldn’t have run away. Neither would there be a need for her to.


    Ian clenched his fists.


    The feeling of being betrayed by his brother and lover at the same time made his chest rise and fall


    rapidly. Suddenly, his eyes closed and he lost consciousness.


    “Uncle Ian!”


    A shocked Joel hastily went toward him. He was about to call for help when a figure faster than he was


    stopped in front of him.


    Nora bent over and checked Ian’s condition. “He fainted because he was too agitated from pent-up


    anger and sadness. He’s very weak now, so it’s not advisable to transport him elsewhere!”


    Joel frowned. “What do we do?”


    Nora looked straight at Justin and said, “Get him medicine. Give him the Zabe Corporation’s Calming


    Pill.”


    She had just given Mrs. Hunt a box of it. There were about 64 pills in there.


    Justin immediately understood. He went out at once.


    He went to Mrs. Hunt’s study. As soon as he entered, Mrs. Hunt asked, “What’s the matter?”


    Justin didn’t go into details. Instead, he simply replied, “Mr. Smith fainted because he was too agitated.


    Grandma, give me a Zabe Corporation’s Calming Pill.”


    Mrs. Hunt: “!!”


    Mrs. Lewis couldn’t bear to part with the pill, either. She wanted to say something, but Mrs. Hunt stopped


    her and said, “Give it to him.”


    Mrs. Lewis nced at Mrs. Hunt before she finally walked over, took out the pill that Yvonne had given


    them, and handed it to Justin.


    Justin took Yvonne’s pillbox, walked out, and quickly went to the meeting room next door.


    As soon as he exited the room, he saw Yvonne standing outside. She was shocked when she saw the


    pillbox in his hand. “What happened to Dad? Did he faint again?”


    Justin nodded but said nothing.


    Yvonne followed Justin into the meeting room next door.


    After they entered, Justin opened the exquisite box in his hand, took out the pill, and handed it to Nora.


    Nora looked at Ian and said, “Put the pill into half a ss of water and dissolve it.”


    Yvonne, however, panicked. She said, “Ms. Smith! That pill is very rare. It’s better to consume it as is. If


    you dissolve it in water, its effect will be halved!”


    Nora: “?”

    How was the patient supposed to consume it when he had already lost consciousness?


    Besides, even if its effect was halved, it would still be effective on Ian. What was that woman interfering


    for?


    Yvonne looked at Joel. “That pill doesn’te by easy, Joel. Don’t let its effects go to waste!”


    Joel looked at her abruptly.


    His sharp eyes made Yvonne stammer as she said, “It’s not like I can’t bear to part with the pill. Saving


    Dad is what matters the most. I just wanted the pill’s effects to be used to the fullest.”


    Joel took a deep breath and asked, “Did Dr. Zabe ever say how the pill should be consumed?”


    Yvonne hastily nodded. “He did. It just needs to be put into the mouth.”


    Nora immediately said, “His condition isn’t that serious. Drinking it after diluting it would do.”


    To be honest, she could also save Ian without the Zabe Corporation’s Calming Pill. After all, Ian’s illness


    wasn’t a brain disease. He had only fainted from anger just now.


    However, it was best if they could use it.


    Yvonne’s eyes flickered when she heard what she said. She understood now—her father’s condition was


    not that serious, yet she had used the pill that she gave Mrs. Hunt. She was obviously doing it on


    purpose!


    Joel frowned.


    While hesitating over who to listen to, someone suddenly took away the pill. When he looked up again,


    he saw that Justin had already dissolved the pill in the half-full ss of water he had just poured.


    The pill dissolved immediately upon contact with water and soon disappeared.


    Justin handed the ss to Nora.


    Nora held Ian’s face, opened his mouth, and poured the medicine into his mouth roughly.


    The two of them matched each other’s actions seamlessly as if they had always been working together


    like that. By the time Joel and Yvonne reacted, Ian had already finished the medicine.


    Joel: “!”


    Yvonne balled up her fists. “Mr. Hunt, Ms. Smith! You… That’s such a waste of the pill’s effects!”


    —


    In Mrs. Hunt’s study.


    After Justin left, Mrs. Hunt held her chest and sighed deeply.


    Although she knew Justin was correct in doing what he did just now, he had taken the pill to save his


    father-inw but forgotten that she also needed the life-saving medicine the most. Mrs. Hunt ultimately


    still felt rather ufortable about that.


    Next to her, Mrs. Lewis nagged, “Why did you give it to him, Ma’am? The pill was a gift for you! You really


    need that pill!”


    Mrs. Hunt sighed. “Yvonne was the one who gave it to me in the first ce anyway. I’ll just think of it as


    returning it to them!”


    Mrs. Lewis sneered, “You can’t put it that way. Since they’ve already given you the pill, it belongs to you


    now. They can’t just bask in the limelight out there and then use it on their own in the end, right? I asked


    about it just now, though. This was Nora’s suggestion. She must be worried that you would favor Yvonne


    over her, so she deliberately did it.”


    Mrs. Hunt heaved a huge sigh. “She grew up in the countryside, after all, so she’s too narrow-minded. To


    think she’s used all her smarts on things like that! Discard the medicine she gave me!”


    Mrs. Lewis picked up the box of pills that Nora had given Mrs. Hunt. She said, “Before I throw it away, let


    me take a look at what so many Carefree Pills put together look like…”


    She opened the box after saying that, but the moment she did, she suddenly found herself stunned.


    Mrs. Hunt scoffed at her reaction. “Look at how ignorant you look. Even if there are 50 Carefree Pills in


    there, they are only worth $150,000. Am I paying you so little that you react that way at a mere


    $150,000?”


    As soon as she said that, a dazed Mrs. Lewis lifted her head and replied, “M-Ma’am, these… these are


    not Carefree Pills.. They are… they are…”
