บท 696: 295 A Moment's Thought (Third Watch)_2

Eleanor Spencer Atkinson's heart ached, and she quickly sat down beside Gem Atkinson, saying, "Gem, listen to me..."

"Five years ago, Mom secretly did a DNA test for me and Elijah behind my back. Could it be that today, someone said they're carrying my child, and Mom believes it, and is planning to secretly do a DNA test for me and that so-called child?"

"Gem, I..."

"Or is it not me, but Dad's lost pearl?"

Eleanor Spencer Atkinson's face darkened, "What nonsense are you talking about?"

"Why else would you be holding the household registration book? And it seems to be our family's. There's a piece of torn skin on it, which Audrey mischievously picked off."

"I...ah, Gem, okay. I admit I was wrong before. But this time, I believe my judgment won't be wrong."

"Oh?"

"I was planning to do a DNA test between you and a child."

Gem smiled, somewhat desolate, and said, "Why don't you tell me why you want to do a DNA test for me and that child?"

"Because that child is yours."
