Chapter 483

Since Bailey isn't a member of the Jefferson family, she must belong somewhere. She's born on the same day as Zoey and grows up to look like Mom years later, yet Zoey doesn't resemble any of the Shurmer family members. That fact alone, I'm sure there are many secrets hidden between the lines. However, the paternity test disclaimed any biological ties between the two. I even asked a friend stationed overseas to run a paternity test for me, but the results were the same. I don't understand where it went wrong. Was there an issue with the data of the blood sample? After all, that data was taken from the Security Agency's system. There's a likelihood it had been tampered with.

Zeke jolted to his feet at that possibility.

No! I have to find a way to get some of Bailey's hair and rerun the test. I'll only trust the result with a sample that's taken directly from her. There's a possibility of any other data being tampered with.

Zeke's heart clenched as he read each one of the accusations and verbal abuse directed at Bailey.

If Bailey truly is my sister, I won't let anyone trample all over her or hurl insults at her like this. A daughter of the Shurmer family should be the most distinguished princess. Outsiders can only look up to her and are forbidden to speak ill of her.

The sky had turned dark when Bailey and Artemis arrived at the base.

Raiden was about to lead them to the dungeon after a short chat, but Artemis frowned disapprovingly. “My wife is pregnant with bad morning sickness. The strong smell of blood will trigger her reflux. We won't be heading down to the dungeon. Have someone clean up the person and bring him over.”

Bailey glared at Artemis and turned her gaze to Raiden. “Don't listen to him. I'm not that precious. Lead us to the dungeon.”

Raiden shook his head. “Indeed, it was my oversight. I apologize for I don't have any experience of being a father, so I'm oblivious to knowledge like this. Have a seat, and I'll be right back.”

After watching Raiden leave, Bailey said frustratingly, “Artemis, can you not aggravate him? He knows I'm pregnant, and it's your baby. Can you please stop bringing up my pregnancy? It's hurtful to him.”

Artemis snorted and released her waist as he strode over to the couch. “I'm only worried about your morning sickness, hence my reminder. I didn't—whatever. I don't want to talk about this. It's pointless to talk it out with you.”
