A Wound that Never Heals

Chapter 164 The Paternity Test Results

Dakota immediately rolled up her sleeves and nodded. “Of course, I understand. Just help me do a normal blood test.

“By the way, I heard that there might be blood rejection between close relatives. This will be tested, right?”

After helping Dakota draw the blood, the nurse replied, “Yes. Although you and Ms. Garcia aren’t relatives, this is the normal process of drawing blood. We have to do it.”

Dakota was relieved. This was exactly what she wanted, but she still pretended to say casually, “Okay, just follow the process. Be careful. If there are problems like blood rejection after I donate blood to Ms. Garcia, that will be bad.”

The nurse took a small tube of blood and stood up, saying, “Don’t worry. The clinical laboratory will take it seriously.

“I will send the blood over first. Ms. Garcia’s blood sample is in the lab. When the result comes out tomorrow, I will send it to you.”

It was almost time to get off work, and the clinical laboratory would not work at night.

Dakota could not hide her excitement. “Okay, I will wait.”

Ever since she found out that Darlene had an Rh–negative blood type and a heart disease, and she was as old as her daughter, Dakota could not tell why she could not

She turned around to return to Lucian’s ward, but at that moment, she saw Katrina not

far away.

They looked at each other, and a trace of uneasiness flashed across Katrina’s face. She was anxious to leave but realized that it was too late. She could only come over with a

smile.

“Mom, why did you come to the nurse station? Dad didn’t see you when he woke up, so he asked me to look for you. I was afraid that you would be lost.”

Dakota had a secret, and she was not sure if Katrina had seen her being drawn blood.

However, it seemed that Katrina had just come over, or perhaps she had not seen it.
