Chapter 628 A Paternity Test

So this is why they've come. Ha! They've finally shown their true colors. Juliana sneered. An amniotic fluid test? How vicious.

Juliana's pregnancy was an unstable one. If she were to do an amniotic fluid test, even if it really turned out to be Huntley's baby, the baby would be in mortal danger.

If it was not Huntley's baby, then things would be even worse.

They could take the opportunity to kick her out of the Hoffman family.

Her father only had two daughters, and her elder sister, Wendy, had already lost her right to inherit the title. If something were to happen to her—if she were to be kicked out of the family—the illegitimate child of the family, Philip, would be able to climb to the top.

After all, Philip was her father's half-brother, and Philip's son was her father's nephew. No one would be able to oppose if Philip's son became the heir to the family.

All of a sudden, there was a weight on her shoulder.

Juliana instinctively turned and saw that Huntley had a hand on her shoulder, silently offering her consolation.

She lifted her head to glance at him, hinting to him that she was fine.

“Uncle Raymond, why are you hesitating? I heard that Juliana was in love with a man when she was in Chanaea and that the man is no ordinary person—he's the head of the Shurmer family, Zeke Shurmer. If she had slept with him and has his child in her, then you would be inviting trouble by handing all power over the family to her. Zeke's an ambitious man—he'll take the opportunity to devour the Hoffman family whole.”
