Ellis was perplexed by the request. “What DNA test are we talking about?”

Uncle Olsen sighed. “She looks so much like your grandma, like a younger version of her.”

With that question, the person on the other end rattled off the details of their relationship.

“Keera! Don’t go too far! Do you really think I can’t live without you as my best friend? If it wasn’t for seeing Howard flaunting that mistress of his around town, I wouldn’t even bother talking with you!
