Chapter 218: DNA Report

The DNA report was in Justin’s hands. He stared at the results, his expression unreadable—surprised, yet not entirely so.

The report clearly stated that the DNA samples belonged to identical twins.

Noah, standing nearby, was visibly stunned. So that man wasn’t bluffing. He really is Mr. Harper’s twin brother.

Justin handed the report back to Noah, a slight frown on his face. "Why did he have to be the older one?" he muttered.

Noah blinked, taken aback. Of all the reactions his boss could have had—shock, confusion, even denial—this wasn’t what he had expected.

Instead of worrying about the implications of having a twin or uncovering the truth about his own background, his boss was sulking about being born a few minutes later than his twin brother.

Noah didn’t know how to respond. Comforting Justin by saying, It’s okay, just a few minutes difference, seemed entirely inappropriate. He wisely chose to remain silent.

"Any other orders for me, Mr. Harper?" Noah asked, hoping to steer the conversation back to a productive direction.

"Have our people investigate any families with the last name Hendrix," Justin instructed. "The way my twin brother talks about me and someone he referred to as ’him’ doesn’t feel ordinary. Focus on notable Handrix families, ones with influence or a history that could attract attention. And check if any of those Handrix families lost twin boys around fifteen years ago."

"Yes, Mr. Harper," Noah replied, nodding briskly.

For the first time, Justin felt overwhelmed, his thoughts scattered across multiple pressing concerns. His own origins, Natalie’s reality, and the mystery surrounding those who were after Natalie’s mother. The fact that Caryn had staged her death to protect Natalie only meant one thing—Natalie could be in danger as well.
