Chapter 117
The meinent the results of the paternity test were in, Zach’s subordinate called him to report it to him.
Elvira looked at Zach’s frown as he listened to his subordinate’s report. She guessed that things might not be simple. Could it be that Alice was really his daughter?
After hanging up the phone, Zach looked at Elvira and said, “Stay with Alice first. Fll make a call.
-oh.
ahead. Elvira took a tissue from the side and wiped the corner of Alice’s mouth. She had a lot on her mind and did not know what was going on.
Zach went out and called his sister. The phone rang for a long time before Grace picked it up. “Zach, why are you calling all of a sudden?”
“Grace, you did this on your own! How dare you!” Zach roared in exasperation.
Grace was speechless.
“Zach, what are you talking about? I haven’t been doing anything lately! Grace realized that she hadn’t been doing anything particular lately, so she immediately became self–righteous.
“You’re telling me that you didn’t do anything after giving birth to your child! Grace, you’re really something! You gave me such a big surprise without telling anyone! Zach asked through gritted teeth. If that girl was in front of him, he would definitely beat her up.
Grace was speechless.
“Have you seen Alice, Zach? Grace asked worriedly.
“She came to me and called me daddy! You really gave me a big surprise!” Zach really wanted to strangle his sister to death.
“I had no choice, Zach. She kept pestering me to ask to see her father. I had no choice but to use your photo to say that you were her father. You’re her biological uncle, so you’re considered half her father. I wasn’t lying.” Grace tried to make an excuse for herself.
“Fine, you have a point. Tell me, who is the father of the child? Zach questioned seriously.
“I don’t know who her father is. One time, I had too much to drink and had sex, so I gave birth to Alice. I have something on. so I won’t talk to you for now. Since Alice has found you, help me take care of her! Bye. With that, Grace hung up.
Zach was furious. When he called again, her phone was turned off.
Zach felt helpless.
After Zach returned to the ward, Elvira felt that the way he looked at Alice had become much gentler. She looked at him. with mixed feelings as she guessed that he had learned that Alice was his biological daughter.
This matter was so sudden. For a moment, Elvira did not know how to deal with it. When she saw that Zach was no longer resisting Alice, she stood up and said, “I still have something to do at the company. You’ll stay with Alice now. I’ll come over later.”
Before Zach or Alice could say anything. Elvira hurriedly left the ward.
“Elvira. Zach wanted to chase after her, but Alice immediately called out nervously, “Daddy, don’t go.”
Zach was speechless.
SHE, INDY ZO
Chapter 117
E
He looked at Alice calling hig daddy pitifully and knew that she lacked fatherly love. Helplessly, he did not deny that he was her father.
Elvira heard the conversation between the father and daughter side and quickened her footsteps.
After Elvira returned to the company, Cole showed her the company’s latest project. After Elvira saw it, she felt that this project had a lot of potential, so she asked when he could meet the person in charge of the other company.
Cole said that the person in charge of the other company had been in Jersten recently, so they could meet at any time.
Elvira asked him to meet the other party as soon as possible to confirm the details of the cooperation.
Cole nodded and left to deal with it. Elvira opened her e–mailbox. There were a few emails from Kennedy Group to discuss the design draft for the next season’s new product.
Elvira replied without hesitation: Terminate the cooperation.
The Kennedy Group was a design company. Previously, the Kennedy family’s company was not as large as it was now. Later on. Elvira anonymously collaborated with the Kennedy family to provide design drafts to the family. Only then did the Kennedy family’s design become the target of countless rich ladies. It also increased the market value of the Kennedy Group by nearly ten times.
In the past, if she wanted to marry Calvin, she naturally had to help the Kennedy family’s company. Now that she had fallen out with the Willis and Kennedy families, there was no need for her to help the Kennedy family anymore.
Elvira’s phone rang. It was Zach. She picked it up when he explained immediately, “Elvira, Alice is not my daughter. She is my biological niece, the daughter of my biological sister.”
Elvira was stunned. “Are y
you serious?”
The result of the paternity test is that I am 25% related to her, so I know that she is my close relative’s child. My only close relative is my biological sister. The reason why I didn’t refute Alice is that I don’t want her to be disappointed again. I can understand her desire for fatherly love,” Zach quickly explained the matter to Elvira.
When Elvira heard the results, she felt the gloominess in her chest disappear instantly arid couldn’t help but smile. She quickly said, “I’ll bring you and Alice dinner after I’m done here. Forget it. Why don’t we bring Alice to see your grandma! She will definitely be very happy to learn about Alice!”
“That might not be the case. She might be furious. Don’t forget, my sister got pregnant out of wedlock and hid Alice for a few years! If Grandma finds out, she’ll probably want to break her legs.” Zach couldn’t understand his sister’s behavior.
It was such a great deal to have a child out of wedlock, but Grace actually kept it a secret from her family. Alice was only four weeks old this year, which meant that Grace had been keeping it a secret for five years.
She was only 25 years old this year, which meant that she was pregnant when she was 20 years old. That girl was really bold since she dared to give birth to Alice alone when she was only 20 years old.
In the end, it was because of the uniqueness of Zach’s family. His father was irresponsible, and after his parents divorced, his sister lived with his mother. He had too much to do in the Gilbert family, and he lacked concern for his sister.
“That won’t happen. Alice is so cute. Your grandma will only be happy when she sees her. Besides, Alice is not a baby anymore. We can’t hide it from your grandma forever, right?” Elvira still felt that Zach’s grandma had the right to know.
“You’re right. In that case, I’ll show Alice to Grandma.” It was impossible for Zach to raise a child well, let alone a delicate and soft little girl Elvira had her own things to do. She could not help his biological sister take care of the child every day. Now, it seemed that he had to trouble his grandma to help take care of Alice.
“Call your grandma first and explain the situation clearly. Don’t make her worried, Elvira reminded him.

Zach expressed that he msgstood.
After Elvira put down her phone, a smile appeared on her face. she had when she first arrived. When Cole returned, he looked makes you so happy?”

“Do 1 look happy? I don’t think so.” Elvira’s simile became even lighter.
Cole was speechless.
