Chapter 563: Suspicions About the Paternity Test

Sitting beside Grandpa Brookes, Rachel bit her lip in frustration. Was Brandon being too obvious? It was as if he was telling everyone that he didn't value her at all. It was too much, truly excessive! Rachel took a few deep breaths and, with a smile to Tina, said, "Tina, I came in such a hurry that I didn't bring you any gifts. Why don't we go shopping later, and you can pick out whatever you like-I'll buy it for you."

"No need, I don't lack anything," Tina replied, not wanting to get too involved with Rachel for some reason. She always felt that Rachel was different from other members of the Brookes family, and it wasn't just because Rachel was adopted; Tina simply felt uncomfortable around her. It was probably what they call incompatible auras.

Rachel stepped forward, eagerly grabbing Tina's hand again, "Tina, don't be shy with me. Even if you have everything, one more won't hurt. We girls need to spoil ourselves, right, Scarlett?" Scarlett looked up, "Yes, the more the merrier. I'll come along; my closet could do with more."

Jack coughed, glancing at the pile of unopened clothes near Scarlett. Indeed, the more the merrier.

Rachel forced a laugh, but since Scarlett had spoken up, she couldn't very well refuse. "Alright, let's all go together." Though she appeared eager, Rachel felt quite stifled inside.

What was Scarlett implying? Did she feel it unsafe for Tina to go out alone with her? How ridiculous, she, a daughter-in-law, was really acting as if she were a true member of the Brookes family! Seeing that Scarlett had also spoken, Tina no longer refused.

Jared picked up the car keys, "Happy to serve the ladies today; I'll be the driver."

"Thanks," Rachel said with a smile.

After Tina finished checking on Grandpa Brookes, they set out for shopping.

Brandon stood in the yard, turning off the oven, "Jack, you better watch your wife; she's likely to blow up our house."

Grandpa Brookes furrowed his brow slightly, leaning forward with a flash of shock in his eyes. However, what shocked him was not so much that Rachel might have tampered with the will, but that the paternity test might have been falsified! Grandpa Brookes grew agitated and began to cough.
