The police officer looked at Esther with sympathy. He had taken her statement before and knew how painstakingly she had tried to find her daughter. After finding her, she underwent three consecutive DNA tests, yet the outcome remained unchanged.
âThe DNA test shows that Pixie is not Ms. Quillâs child,â the police officer revealed.
Esther had a sinking feeling the moment the police officer looked at her with sympathetic eyes. A buzzing sound filled her ears when all her worst suspicions became a reality. Her legs gave way, and she uncontrollably fell forward.
Anna quickly caught Esther and asked worriedly, âAre you okay?â
âIâm fine.â
Esther steadied herself, unwilling to accept the truth. She asked the police officer again, âPixie really isnât my daughter?â
âYes, madam,â the police officer said sympathetically.
âThe police department oversaw the result of this DNA test to ensure there is no data. deviation,â he earnestly explained.
Esther understood the officerâs meaning. He was saying that the DNA test this time was accurate and reliable. That meant that the three consecutive tests had consistently proved that Pixie was not her daughter.

âYes.â
The officer agreed. Susan gave Esther a cold smirk before pushing open the door. She didnât care about Esther at all. To Susan, Esther was insignificant, like an ant.
Once Susan entered Pixieâs room, Esther slowly started to come to terms with the fact that Pixie was not her daughter. In fact, it wasnât too difficult for her to accept. The previous two DNA tests had already proved that Pixie wasnât hers.
Even so, Esther still held onto a small glimmer of hope.
What if Pixie was hers?
Unfortunately, the answer was clear: Pixie was not her daughter.
So, where was her real daughter?
âOfficer, Pixieâ¦â
The police officer sympathized with Esther and spoke gently. âMs. Quill, according to our countryâs laws, Pixie already has her parents.â
âBut⦠their intention in adopting Pixie is to use her organs to save their biological child. They donât really wantâ¦â
