Chapter 323 323: Do you think he lied again?

"And what makes you think so?" Ella questioned, breaking the calm.

Gabriel took a big breath, leaned forward with his hands clasped together and resting on the table, and spoke.

"Stefan told me you have a rare blood type, which you assume you got from your father, but Eveline's blood group doesn't match with any of them."

Eveline lowered her gaze, pondering this word. They were like hammers pounding her chords, making everything around her jumbled.

"Do you think he lied once again about everything that happened with Aunt Erna?" Stefan's voice interrupted Eveline's thoughts.

Her eyes were now red as her thoughts began to clear, eventually erupting in wrath over the man's name and his heinous plan to destroy their lives.

"I'm not sure unless I have specific evidence. I happened to click on this when you mentioned Ella's initial idea of finding her father through DNA," Gabriel remarked.

"But you mentioned my dad's blood group did not match mine. In what way does that mean I am-"

"No, Eve. Don't think that way. I only want us to understand that Jedrick is a wrecked man who can twist his words to his liking. So there is a possibility that he misled everyone. Even your parents."

Eveline took a deep breath as a strange feeling crept into her heart. Perhaps it would be better if she did not think anything outrageous that could be proven wrong. But how were they meant to get their hands on the truth?

How can they prove it?

"I believe I can dig into some details now that Dad has decided to work with Larson," Stefan stated, capturing Gabriel's attention.

"What did you say? "Is Uncle Marcus okay with us moving forward with this project?" he inquired, and Stefan gave a dejected nod.

"But now that I think we have a chance to know Jedrick personally and I am sure I can manage to get my way into his life somehow," replied Stefan.

Gabriel gave him a suspicious look, which Stefan disregarded, confirming his displeasure with the arrangement. But, since it was Uncle Marcus, he wasn't supposed to think about it before nodding.

"Perhaps we should leave. I can't let Mom be alone. She might be awake by now," Ella said, looking at her wristwatch.
