Chapitre 274: Decision (3)

(Third person perspective)

Mrs. Atkins had stepped into the office and took a seat. Dr. Moore sat behind the desk after closing the door. He began to explain his suspicions to her as Mr. Atkins was pulled up on speaker phone. To say she was shocked would be an understatement. She was overwhelmed.

"Have either of you reached out to Doug yet?" She asked.

Dr. Moore leaned back in his seat. "I have. Last night after Wayne and Jake left, I made a courtesy call to Doug to give an update on Jake and then to inform him of my suspicions. As I've told Wayne before, this might not be his actual brother. A cousin or older neighbor boy are possible options too."

"What did Doug say?"

"That he would look into it. He's going to check some hospital records and see if the mom is listed on any other birth certificates, and if there's a father listed for that child then maybe we'll have a potential match."
