Chapter 1169: Chapter 1166: DNA Paternity Testing

The Heath family’s backyard was huge and beautiful, with a gentle evening breeze carrying the faint scent of flowers in the air.

Ashton Heath held Joanna Lawrence’s hand as they strolled slowly.

The two walked and chatted.

"I think Grandma really likes Jeremy," Joanna recalled Madam Heath’s protective behavior towards him earlier and smiled. "She treats Jeremy very well. I didn’t expect Jeremy to be so likable to Grandma."

Ashton Heath thought of the information he had gathered and gradually slowed down.

"What’s wrong?" Joanna turned her head and met his contemplative eyes.

Ashton Heath seemed deep in thought. After a while, he said, "There’s something I think I should tell you. Although it’s not confirmed yet, you have the right to know."

"Hmm?" Using her womanly intuition, Joanna had sensed that something was bothering Ashton today, but she hadn’t asked, knowing that he would tell her in his own time.

She had always believed that if he wanted to share something, he would do it voluntarily.

It was useless to ask if he didn’t want to talk about it.

Now, was he finally going to tell her?

"It’s about Jeremy. He doesn’t look like you, and you’ve told me he doesn’t resemble your parents either. Haven’t you ever been suspicious?"

Joanna was stunned.

A few seconds later, her eyes gradually widened. "What do you mean? Are you trying to tell me..."

Ashton Heath looked at her and said, "Some people say Jeremy looks like me, but you haven’t seen my Uncle Damien. If you had, you would be very surprised. Jeremy looks almost identical to my uncle when he was young."

"What does that have to do with your Uncle Damien? Ashton Heath, what are you trying to say?"

"I’m saying that Jeremy might not belong to the Lawrence family, but to the Heath family." After saying this, Ashton saw the incredulous expression on Joanna’s face.

Her shock was as if she’d just heard the world was ending.

Ashton Heath understood her feelings.

She had always thought Jeremy was her own brother.

"It’s not completely certain yet, but based on the information I have, there’s a 70% chance that Jeremy is from the Heath family. Your parents brought him back from the orphanage. The reason you two don’t look alike is that you are not blood siblings."

Joanna was utterly shocked and speechless for a long time.

Eventually, she found her voice: "You investigated Jeremy? How did you suddenly... "

"It wasn’t really sudden," Ashton explained. "When Grandma first met Jeremy, she thought he looked just like my Uncle Damien. Jeremy’s age and even his birth month match up with the child my uncle lost."

"So, Grandma had her doubts and asked me to look into it."

"And then you found out that Jeremy was adopted by my parents from the orphanage?"

"Yes."

Joanna still found it hard to believe: "But, even if Jeremy is an orphan, it doesn’t necessarily mean he’s your uncle’s child."

"You’re right," Ashton nodded. "That’s why we brought Jeremy here this time, to verify it further."

Joanna stared at him blankly: "How to verify?"

"DNA Paternity Testing, the most accurate method to verify."

Joanna still found the whole thing unbelievable.

How did her dear brother suddenly become a child from an orphanage?

And what’s more, possibly a child of the Heath family!
