<b>Chapter </b>83
J’s beautiful face was twisted with anger as she red at Mary. “How dare
you!”
Mary smirked, “You guess? I’ve got nothing to lose. I’ll just serve a few years in jail and then go back to the countryside to take care of my own grandson. But you better watch out if news gets out…”
“Shut up
<b>“</b>Shut up!” J shouted fiercely.
J gasped for breath. She closed her eyes and took a deep breath but was still unable to calm down. She took another deep breath. She was going mad with anger.
“There must be something wrong with that paternity test. Arthur is Theodore’s. I didn’t sleep with any other man… I’m not that kind of person. Arthur is definitely Theodore’s son!
“There must have been some mistake.”
J was anxious to exin to Mary, but it also felt like talking to herself.
J suddenly thought of Reba<b>. </b>Belongs ? to N?velDrama.Org.
She thought, ‘Reba keeps dying the divorce. It must be Reba who did this.
‘She bribed the doctors to change the results of Arthur and Theodore’s paternity test. Sam and Melissa mistakenly thought Arthur wasn’t Theodore’s child, and then they came to disdain and distance themselves from me!‘
Once this thought popped up, it couldn’t be suppressed.
J imagined Reba’s face in her mind and wanted toe in front of her right away and p her hard, tearing her face apart.
She thought, ‘If it weren’t for Reba refusing to leave Theodore, I would have married Theodore long ago! How did things turn out like this<b>?</b>”
“Reba did it. She must have paid the doctor in the hospital to change the paternity test results!” J looked at Mary and said in a deep voice.
Mary had nothing to say, inwardly thinking, ‘She’spletely insane. ming others for her own mistakes!”
Turning her head, Mary gazed at Arthur in the crib. No matter how many times she looked, she felt there was no resemnce between Arthur and Theodore.
Before, it was just a strange thought, but now, with the paternity test results out, everything seemed to make
sense.
Mary’s scornful look was <b>too </b>obvious. Her turning to look at Arthur also caught J’s attention.
Following Mary’s gaze, J also looked at Arthur in the crib.
At that moment, J suddenly realized that Arthur had no resemnce to Theodore at all.
J suddenly thought of another possibility: Arthur was the one who had the problem.
Maybe the child she and Theodore had was switched in the hospital.
J thought and then added, “My child might have been switched. If that’s true, then the paternity test report will definitely show non–paternity.”
Mary sneered, “Switched? How many months is Arthur now? Haven’t you seen his facial features? Although he doesn’t look like Theodore, he does look like you!
“I think you better stop guessing wildly and think about which men you’ve slept with and find Arthur’s real father as soon as possible.”
J fumed angrily, “Just shut up!!”
Mary rolled her eyes and urged, “I don’t want to get involved with your mess, just give me the money now, I want to leave today!”
She didn’t want to stay in a mistress‘ house for a single minute longer.
Mary thought, ‘I don’t know who the father of this child is. What if the man has a wife who is not a nice person…? One day, if she finds out andes here, it’s bound to be a big fight. If I continue to work for J, what if she thinks I’m an aplice to the mistress? I can’t afford to lose face like that!”
J was so angry that she was exhausted. She finally calmed down enough to caution, “Arthur must be Theodore’s child! He couldn’t possibly be someone else’s, don’t talk nonsense! Defamation is illegal. Be careful. I will sue you!”
J was silent for a while before saying again, “I will give you the money, but you can’t leave quite yet. You need to take care of Arthur for a while longer, wait for the new nanny to arrive, and then you can leave<b>!</b><b>” </b>
“Then I want a raise!” Mary jacked up the price.
J was infuriated. “You are really…”
Mary mocked, “Arthur doesn’t have legal status. Taking care of such an illegitimate child<b>, </b>first, it will tarnish my reputation, and secondly, I could be in danger.
“What if the man’s wifees seeking revenge?

“As I take care of Arthur, she will consider me an aplice to you. What if she hits me, too?
“Such a risky job requires at least triple the pay!”
“You’re extorting me!” J said angrily.
62%
Mary rolled her eyes. “I’m just analyzing the risks rationally. If you can’t afford it, go find someone else to help you.
Don’t bother me!”
Mary’s piercing eyes stared at J, reminding her, “By the way, the forty thousand and the sry for this month, can you transfer it to me now?
“I know you have the money. To you, it’s just the price of a dress. There’s no need for you to be so stingy, right?” Mary urged again.
J was speechless with anger.
“If you don’t give it to me, don’t me me…”
“Shut up, I’ll give it to you now!” J shouted loudly.
J immediately transferred 402,000 dors to Mary on her phone, 400 thousand for Mary’s extortion, and an additional two thousand for half a month’s sry. It was now midmonth, and Mary had worked for half a month, making her sry exactly two thousand.
“Show me the photos of the paternity test and delete the negatives!” J said, looking at Mary coldly.
Mary hesitated for a moment before saying, “I can give you the photos, but the negatives… I have many dummy ounts and have saved multiple copies. I can’t remember all the passwords, so I might not be able to delete them all.”
J’s face contorted in anger. “Are you fooling me?”
With a sincere look, Mary turned to J. “Ms. Mitchell, why would you think that? I’m just getting old, and my memory isn’t what it used to be.”
Jughed sardonically, fixing her gaze on Mary, and said coldly, “Mary, if I remember correctly, you should have a grandson in school back in your hometown?”
Mary’s expression changed, and she watched J warily. “What do you mean?”
Seeing her fear, J let out a sigh of relief and sneered, “Nothing much. I just wanted to remind you not to go too far. Otherwise, it will be a lose–lose situation for both of us!”
