Chapter 80

Mark arranged for Shela to be in the hospital and then went off to tap his connections to cook up a fake pregnancy test report.

Meanwhile, Vidonia sneaked into the hospital’s paternity test lab.

Seizing the moment during a shift change, Vidonia hunched, sifted through the test tubes, and found the one labeled with

Letitia’s name.

She pocketed it in a blink, replacing it with a new test tube.

Mission accomplished!

“Easy-peasy. Can’t believe Letitia would have been so worried, Vidonia muttered under her breath, “She’s too single-minded and honest. To deal with these weasels, you gotta play dirty!”

She headed out, glanced to ensure the coast was clear, and ran out quickly, slipping into the corridor. Everything went off without

a hitch!

“How did it go? Did you get it?” Letitia asked eagerly from inside the car parked by the curb

Vidonia pulled out the test tube and gave it a shake “Of course!”

“You’re amazing!”

“It’s no biggie. Without this thing, let’s see how Phedra can carry out the test.” Vidonia snapped the tube in half with her bare hands and tossed it into a trash can with flair. “Let’s roll! It’s time for some late-night grub. I don’t wanna starve my godson!”

Letitia hugged her with joy

Once their car was out of sight, Phedra emerged from the cover of a streetlight.

“Huh, I knew you’d pull a stunt like this” She was smug. Too bad, Letitia. I was way ahead of you! The more you dread the test, the more it proves this child is of unknown origin! It’s not Elgin’s!”

Phedra opened her palm to reveal the real test tube needed for the test. She still had it!

“Humph, I can’t wait for the results to come out. It’s going to be quite the show!”

On the open-air balcony of Ivory Towers, the lights shone brightly.
