Ch.1432 Chapter 1436 - When Love Comes Late

With patience, she clarified, âMy husband harbors reservations about your lineage.

A paternity test is the most straightforward means to allay doubts.

So donât read much into it.

I hope you understand.

âI know the test is a must.

I want you and the Clark family to recognize me,â Haley replied, concealing her unease.

Stellaâs suspicions ebbed slightly with Haleyâs agreement.

When she knew that she was not abandoned by her parents, she yearned for the truth, hoping against hope that Haley was indeed her mother.

After parting ways with Stella, Haley headed back to the hotel.

Upon entering her room, she found Kristian waiting for her.

Seeing her tired expression, Kristian frowned and asked, âIs everything okay today?â

Haley slumped onto the sofa, recounting the dayâs events.

âEverything seemed fine initially, but then, out of the blue, Stella suggested a DNA test during dinner.

Kristianâs expression grew grim.

âIf the DNA test goes through, I will be exposed.

But if I back out, explaining it to Matthew will be tricky.

â Remembering the warning in Matthewâs eyes, Haley couldnât shake off the fear creeping in.

After a moment of contemplation, Kristian said firmly, âWe canât keep this charade up with Stellaâs sharpness.

Itâs time we make her believe youâre her mom.

âWhat? But how?â Haley asked, feeling puzzled.

âMatthew is meticulous.

Heâll choose someone he trusts for the test.

How can we manipulate the results under his watch? Itâs too risky.

Kristian glanced at her and reassured, âNo need to stress.

Itâs all taken care of.

He stood, retrieved a document from his bag, and extended it towards Haley.

âTake a look at this.

Rather than accepting it, Haley asked, âWhat do you mean?â Do you want me to swap out the exam report for me and Stella?â

Kristian clarified, âNo, this is the paternity test report for Stella and Bella, confirming their mother-daughter relationship.

âWhat?â Haley was taken aback.

Kristian had orchestrated this entire scenario.

Haley had been tasked with posing as Stellaâs mother and living with the Clark family to gain as many benefits as possible.

But things didnât unfold as planned.

The revelation that Bella was indeed Stellaâs biological mother was unforeseen.

Kristian sat beside Haley, detailing his strategy.

âI knew Bellaâs background from the very beginning, and with Elizabethâs suspicion of Stella, I suspected Bella was Stellaâs mother.

â When you returned from seeing Stella, I found one of her hairs on your clothing.

I collected a sample from that and compared it with Bellaâs hair.

The test results came back today, confirming their biological Link.

He reassuringly placed a hand on Haleyâs shoulder, stating, âDonât stress.

Iâve got everything under control.

Thereâs no way Matthew and Stella will uncover our plan.

Haley, still processing, asked uncertainly, âThenâ¦ Whatâs my next move?â

Kristian produced another sealed bag from his bag and presented it to Haley.
