Esther knew that Pixie had been adopted but didnât know who the adoptive parents were.
It felt like she had entered a dead-end with no escape. She met cold walls in every direction she tried to go.
Anna gently patted Estherâs shoulder, explaining, âOfficer, my friend traveled all the way from the other side of the Earth to bring her daughter back home. The results of the two DNA tests are completely opposite, making it hard for her to accept it immediately.â
She then suggested to the staff, âHow about this? The officer and I will personally collect Pixieâs DNA samples and have a professional institution conduct a new test if the result matches the previous one, Pixie is not my friendâs daughter, and she can resume her search for her biological child. What do you think?â
The staff nodded. âI can take you to collect Pixieâs DNA sample, but Ms. Quill cannot go.
!!
âShe wonât go. Iâll go in her place.â Anna turned around and looked at Esther, who was full of despair.
âEsther, do you trust me?â she asked warmly.
Esther nodded, placing her trust in Anna. If the DNA test Anna personally collected confirmed the same result as this report, she would be convinced that Maria Church had not tampered with the test.
âGet in the car.â The police officer tilted his head, signaling Anna to get in.
Anna was about to leave, but Esther quickly took out her phone and showed her a photo of Tinkerbell.
âAnna, take a good look. This is Tinkerbellâs photo. Pixie and Tinkerbell are twins, and they look alike.â
Esther could not help but make the worst speculation. They might be searching for the wrong person.
The Pixie they sought and the one mentioned by the church might not be the same.
âWhat ifâ¦â
Anna carefully examined the photo of Tinkerbell on Estherâs phone, then gently patted her shoulder and said, âEsther, wait for my news at the castle.â
âOkay.â
After Anna and the police officer left to collect Pixieâs DNA sample, Esther had to call a driver because her legs were too weak to drive. The fake DNA test result had left her feeling shaken.
Anna collected Pixieâs sample and sent it to a professional institution for DNA testing. The payment was made for an expedited test, ensuring results within 24 hours, and Anna would be informed promptly.
âEsther,â Anna called out.
Esther quickly approached Anna, asking anxiously, âAnna, whatâs the result? Is Pixie my daughter?â
Anna took out her phone and showed Esther a photo of herself with Pixie. âI took a photo with Pixie as a designer. She must be Tinkerbellâs twin sister.â
Esther looked at the photo of Pixie in Annaâs phone affectionately and asked with doubt, Sheâs obviously the one. Why are the DNA test results different?â
âEsther, the new DNA maternity test result will be available within 24 hours.â Anna sat across from Esther and comforted her. âPixie is being treated like a princess in her new home, with the best of everything. Her adoptive parents come from noble backgrounds, and sheâs very happy there.â
âThatâs great.â A sense of relief surged in Estherâs heart. What could make her happier than knowing that Pixie was happy in her new parentsâ home?
Anna hesitated for a moment and decided to share her guess.
âBut I noticed another girl about the same age as Pixie in that family. She seems to have a heart conditionâ¦â Anna paused halfway and shook her head, pushing away the almost absurd speculation in her mind. âItâs also possible that Iâm overthinking it.â
