“We destroyed the DNA report as soon as we had read it… because we didn’t want to leave any trace

of our crime. Mister Lucas… are you okay?” asked the nurse fearfully.

Lucas’ face was stiff with rage. “Let me ask you one more time. Are you sure the DNA test says

Corinne and I are brother and sister?”

“Yes. A hundred percent sure because losing the bet means I have to resign from the hospital so I

made sure to read and reread the result and it says on the report as clear as day that you and Miss

Corinne are indeed brother and sister.”

Lucas fell into a shocked silence when he heard that. After a long while, he let go of the nurse who

immediately broke into tears after that. Lucas’ hands were trembling non stop as he was still reeling

from the shock of the news.

All this while, he thought the reason he could not bear to hurt Corinne was because she had saved

Cedric from getting beaten up by the influencer before. That was why he continued to show her mercy

again and again.

Edmund, too, was shocked by the news since the one woman Lucas hated with all his guts turned out

to be his long-lost sister who he had been searching for the past 15 years. He walked up to Lucas and

asked cautiously, “Mister Lucas, are you okay?”

Lucas clutched his chest to stop the terrible feeling that was spreading inside of him. After taking a

deep breath, he ordered, “Get me some conclusive evidence as fast as you can!”

“Yes, Mister Lucas. Leave this to me,” said Edmund with a nod.

Lucas pulled open the door and stumbled out of the room in a daze. Seeing this, the two nurses

immediately got down on their knees to beg for mercy since they had no idea what would become of

them.

“Mister Lucas, please forgive us! We know what we did was wrong but can you please let us go?

“Mister Lucas, please let us go! We promise we’ll never do something like this again.” However, Lucas

never once looked back at them no matter how they pleaded. A while later, the two bodyguards came

back to keep watch over them.

The next day at four in the morning. Edmund rushed back to the Riveras’ mansion and knocked on the

door of Lucas’ study.

“Come in,” came Lucas’ tired voice from inside the study. The light in the room had been on the entire

night. In other words, he had not slept a wink at all.

Edmund pushed open the door and solemnly presented Lucas with a DNA report. “Mister Lucas, we

collected some of Miss Corinne’s hair from the office she used to occupy and arranged for the DNA

report to come out as soon as possible. According to the report in your hand, Miss Corinne’s DNA

perfectly matches those of Miss Luna.”

Lucas’ bloodshot pupils immediately shrank to pinpoint size. At that moment, the DNA report only

confirmed what the two nurses said so he was not shocked or surprised anymore. He had

been sitting inside the study the whole night, recalling every instance where he treated Corinne awfully

in the past.
