Chapter 1345: Chapter 1345

Chapter 1345 Eleanor was taken aback at the sight of Peterson. She couldn’t comprehend how he knew her, let alone why he’d come to see her. Could it be that he had figured out she had impersonated Emilia to negotiate a project at his home?

“Didn’t I just tell you? She’s not well, so she can’t handle projects, why are you still here?” Robin was irked, casting a disdainful glance at Peterson who looked like he had just stepped out of a fashion magazine.

Peterson didn’t seem to mind Robin’s arrogance, offering Eleanor a gentle smile instead.

“Ms. Shultz, do you have a moment?”

Pulling herself together, Eleanor nodded, “Of course.”

Peterson’s gaze shifted to the others, “I’d like to speak with you privately.”

Robin was about to protest when Eleanor spoke up, “Cedric, could you take Hailey to the lounge to rest?”

7 Cedric found Peterson odd. Eleanor had never had direct dealings with Peterson, so why would he seek her out privately? Regardless of his confusion, Cedric respected her decision, assisting Hailey by gently holding her arm and waist. As he turned to leave, he glanced at Robin, “Aren’t you leaving?”

1 Robin was quite the mystery himself. When Eleanor was unconscious, he was by her bed side every day, watching her with such intensity that one might mistake him for her husband.

Cedric eyed him suspiciously, which Robin found quite annoying and abruptly exited the room..

Once they had left, Peterson gracefully approached Eleanor, taking a seat where Hailey had sat moments ago, “Ms. Shultz, I apologize for bothering you given your current health.”

Peterson had a certain elegance about him. His handsome face always wore a soft smile, and he exuded the charm of a well-bred gentleman.

“No worries.” Eleanor had a good impression of Peterson and reciprocated his politeness, “Now that we’re alone, Mr. Sharp, what can I do for you?”

Peterson got straight to the point, “Ms. Shultz, my grandfather noticed that you pretended to be Emilia during the project negotiations.”

Hearing this, despite having suspected Peterson’s motive, Eleanor felt a pang in her heart.

“So, did your grandfather send you to demand compensation for breach of contract?”

Eleanor didn’t ask how Peterson’s grandfather had discovered her deception, nor how they had carried out their investigation.

After all, the Sharp family was a powerhouse in North Funland, with resources and influence on par with the Laurence family. They had means and ways!

“No, actually, I’m here for something else.”

The project contract stated that if Emilia wasn’t personally involved in the design, a hefty penalty for breach of contract would be required.

Eleanor assumed Peterson’s visit was related to the contract violation, but it wasn’t, which left her puzzled, “If it’s not about the project, then what is it?”/

Eleanor had no connections with Peterson, so why would he seek her out?

Peterson leaned back in his chair, a nonchalant smile playing on his lips.

“My grandfather had a first love named Pauline. Has he mentioned her to you?”

“He mentioned her, but didn’t provide a name. Why?”

Bemused by Eleanor’s confusion, Peterson chuckled, “Interestingly, you bear a striking resemblance to Pauline.”

Eleanor was taken aback, asking, “You’re saying I look like your grandmother?”

Peterson nodded slowly, “That’s right, and not just you. Your mother, Vanya, also bears a striking resemblance to her.” He added, “Your mother looks even more like her.”

When Yates Sharp mentioned Vanya previously, Eleanor knew he had done his homework. But she hadn’t expected him to have researched Vanya because she resembled his first love.

“Ms. Shultz, my grandfather suspects you might be a descendant of the Sharp family, which is why I’m here. He wants a hair sample for a DNA test.

Would that be okay with you?”

Upon hearing Peterson’s revelation, Eleanor began to doubt her lineage. She hadn’t expected the possibility of being related to the Sharp family.

“Don’t worry, we’ll just start with the test. Once the results are out, regardless of whether you’re a descendant of the Sharp family, we’ll respect your decision.”

Eleanor was a bit flustered and hesitant with the news, but Peterson was patient and reassured her.

After some thought, Eleanor pulled out a strand of her hair and handed it to Peterson.

Regardless of the outcome, a DNA test could help her mother, find her roots.

“Thank you.” Peterson accepted the hair strand, looking at Eleanor fondly. He was increasingly drawn to Eleanor, not in a romantic way, but with the affection of a brother for his sister.

If Eleanor turned out to be his sister, he would be overjoyed.

With the hair sample in hand, Peterson stood to leave.

“I’ll get the test done, Ms. Shultz. Once the results are ready, I’ll come see you.”

“Sure.”

Eleanor was such a good girl. Peterson couldn’t help but smile indulgently, “Take care. If you’re not satisfied with your doctor, let me know. I’ll arrange the best medical specialist for you.”

Compared to Peterson’s easygoing nature, Eleanor felt awkward and responded with a forced smile.
