Bradley glanced at the photo on the file and responded indifferently, âNo.â
Kevin was puzzled.
Bradley replied, âFelix didnât look this ugly when he was a child.â
Kevin was at a loss for words. He looked at the photo on the file seriously and wondered if they looked ugly.
Not at all!
Wait a minute!
Kevin looked up at Bradley and asked the question on his mind, âBradley, do you know the difference between identical twins and fraternal twins?â
Bradley paused, casting an affectionate yet condescending glance at Kevin.
Kevin quickly clarified, âWhat I mean is, you canât determine if theyâre your children solely based on how Felix looked in childhood. From a professional doctorâs perspective, a DNA test is the most reliable and scientific method.â
Bradley recalled the DNA test conducted between Tinkerbell, himself, and Esther before, and retorted coldly, âDNA tests can be manipulated.â
âBradley, I know Cole. He wouldnât betray the Warners. He once verified that Tinkerbell and Pixie are Estherâs daughters. Maybe thatâs genuinely his belief. Tinkerbellâs DNA data showed irregularities, and Cole had an accident. Consider this: Could someone be deliberately causing trouble?â
Bradley slapped the file shut and asked solemnly, âIs this an enemy?â
Bradley dominated the business world, acquiring numerous companies and amassing many adversaries.
âPerhaps itâs your enemy, or maybe itâs Estherâs.â Kevin assumed the role of a detective, drawing from the detective novels he had been reading for a decade, and deduced earnestly, âThink about it. Could Liliane have had the capability to manipulate those fabricated videos from the past?â
The past appeared veiled in thick fog-
What Kevin said revealed a corner of that mysterious veil for Bradley.
âWeâll find the girls first,â Bradley said.
Kevin asked, âShouldnât we start by investigating from the source? Did Esther truly give birth to a boy in the past? Or was it a boy and two girls?â
Five years had passed.
Did those documents from back then still exist?
Kevin abruptly fell silent, unable to help but wonder: What if Esther hadnât actually given birth to those two girls?
The core issue lay in the fact that Esther hadnât received prenatal care before being incarcerated upon discovering her pregnancy. She was then sentenced and imprisoned, rendering prenatal check-ups impossible.
How many children did Esther genuinely carry, and how many did she give birth to? These were all mysteries.
To unveil these mysteries, Bradley had to personally verify each one.
It had grown quite late into the night. Bradley and Kevin were still searching for information in the records room of the welfare institution.
The dim light seeping through the window resembled a lone star scattered amidst the city.
After settling Bradley and Kevin, the welfare institutionâs staff promptly dialed Camila.
âMadam Jenner, itâs me.â
Camila signaled, and the once bustling private room hushed instantly. Clearing her throat, she asked, âWhatâs going on?â
âMadam Jenner, Mr. Warner has arrived and is reviewing records from the past five years!â
âWho?â
The staff member replied, âBradley Warner!â
Camila waved her hand, dismissing those present in the room.
âWhat action did you take?â
The staff member replied, âI escorted him to the welfare institutionâs records room.â
âGood work,â Camila commended. âKeep a watchful eye on him. Assist him with whatever he requires, understood?â âUnderstood.â
