Chapter 286



.

Nora slightly arched her eyebrows and motioned to pick up the call and walked to the side balcony.

As soon as the call connected, Lily’s tired voice came. “Anti, the report is out.”

Nora lowered her eyes and said coolly, “What’s the score?”

Lily replied in English, “Your relationship with Mr. Smith is indeed not that of a father and daughter. Your DNA is not close enough.”

Nora raised her eyebrows. “Uncle and niece?”

Lily replied, “His DNA is a bit off from that of a father and daughter. That’s why the earlier report compared the DNA match to that of an uncle and niece. But it’s impossible to determine if that’s true. Can you find your father’s DNA?”

Nora: “…No.”

If you could find it, wouldn’t you have sent it to him a long time ago?

Nora felt a little disappointed. Just as she was about to hang up, Lily hesitantly said, “Anti, actually, it’s not impossible that you and Mr. Smith are father and daughter.”

Not impossible?

What kind of relationship was that?

Nora said, “Please explain.”

Lily then said, “Do you remember the last time I told you that your intelligence and genes are different from those of ordinary people?”

Nora narrowed her eyes. “Yes, so?”

Lily said slowly, “The difference between you and Ian comes mainly from this part of your intelligence genes. However, it may also be because your genes have mutated. Therefore, I said that it is very likely that you and Ian are father and daughter. If you can find the DNA of the alleged father you are talking about now, we can verify it. I even think the match rate might not be as high as yours and Ian’s. Of course, if this is the case, it may also prove your relationship to Ian.”

Nora frowned.

In other words, could she be Ian’s daughter?

The problem, however, was that she couldn’t provide proof. She couldn’t say that her genes had mutated, could she? It was too unbelievable.

She lowered her eyes. “If I could get the DNA from that supposed father, I wouldn’t have let them test me and Mr. Smith.”

Lily: “…That’s right. Am I acting like a fool?”

“Not at all.”

Nora lowered her eyes slowly. “At least you’ve let me know there’s another possibility.”

Lily nodded. “Yes, you’d better go to the Smiths now and try to find a way to get your father’s DNA, something that is still the te even more than twenty years later.”

Nora: “…For example?”

He had been missing for more than twenty years, where could he get living DNA?

However, Lily said, “For example, from wisdom teeth or milk teeth? Don’t those remain after you pull them out?”

Nora: “…That’s kind of gross.”

“…”

“I’m hanging up.”

After hanging up, Nora stood there thinking for a while and suddenly patted herself on the head. She felt she was very foolish.

If she wanted to know who her father was, she could find out who had gone to California back then.

She raised an eyebrow and went downstairs.

Joel was waiting for her in the living room. At that moment, Cherry was talking adorably to him. “So Mia’s father is my uncle. No wonder Mia is as beautiful as Cherry.”

Joel nodded. “Yes.”

Cherry said, “Uncle, you’re very handsome. You’re the kind my mom and I like. You’re harmless and beautiful!”

“…”

“By the way, man, can I live with Mia after we go to the Smiths? Mia is the one I like the most. Besides, Brandon is my subordinate, you know that?”

Joel: “…Okay.”

This girl was such a talker!

As he felt conflicted, he saw Nora coming down the stairs. He instantly let out a sigh of relief and walked over to pick up his luggage. “Come on.”

Nora had no trepidation about Joel helping her carry her luggage. Instead, she calmly followed him. When the group left, a secretary helped Joel carry the luggage.

The fact that Joel came to pick her up personally gave Nora a very good image.

An hour later, they finally arrived at the Smith residence.

Joel got out of the car. With the help of the house servants, he took the lead and walked ahead. He turned to look at Nora and saw that, after getting out of the car, she was completely ignoring Cherry.

Cherry, on the other hand, jumped out of the car and hopped in beside her as she looked around. Her small eyes were like black grapes. There was no hint of the surprise she should have at the sight of the Smith mansion. Instead, there was something of admiration.

That’s right. Justin’s daughter must have lived in the Hunts for a while. She didn’t look like a child who hadn’t seen the world.

Without realizing it, Joel slowed his steps and asked, “Do you like it? How do you like the Smith house compared to the Hunts’?”

Cherry looked up and said, “About the same. But Dad made me a princess room, do they have one here?”.

Joel: “!”

A princess room…. They didn’t have one here!

After all, it was a last minute decision to bring the two of them to the Smith residence.

However, when he met Cherry’s big eyes, which were like black grapes, he coughed and said, “Yes, there will be.”

Cherry: “Yes! Then I won’t go. Little Princess Lucy still wants me to play with her.”

Lucy?

Joel narrowed his eyes.

The royal family of the United Kingdom did have a little princess named Lucy. She was only five this year, but was she Cherry’s friend?

You had to know that the UK was a country that highly valued blood relations. Aristocrats looked down on commoners.

Therefore…

Joel looked at Nora – wasn’t this little cousin of his simple?

After Nora followed Joel inside the Smiths, Joel took her upstairs.

He found a relatively spacious guest room for her and indicated, “I was in a hurry to pick you up, so I’ll have to trouble you to stay here for the time being. The room next door is being renovated. It will be your powder room.”

Nora didn’t mind this. Besides, the guest room was quite spacious. The important thing was that the bed was quite comfortable. She nodded. “Okay.”

Seeing that she had no other thoughts, Joel left the living room and headed for the office.

On the way, he got a call from Mia. “Dad, Cherry’s here, can I let her stay with me?”

His daughter’s room was a princess room, and the two girls could stay there.

Joel agreed.

As soon as he arrived at the company, however, the company’s Internet staff rushed to meet him. “Mr. Smith, our Internet has been hacked!”

Joel was taken aback. “Who hacked it?”

The Director of the Internet Department shook his head. “I don’t know, but the other party has obtained Mr. Ian’s address book from 25 years ago!”

Twenty-five years ago?

Where had the Third Uncle been?

Joel followed the Internet Department Manager into the secret room and saw Ian’s schedule for the entire year 25 years ago.
