Zoe was about to leave when Daniel stopped her. "No, I do want to talk. What else do you want to talk
about? Go on."
With her hands in her pockets and her eyes flitting, she turned to face him. "You haven't answered my
previous question yet."
Daniel said, "The paternity test between Louis and William did show that they are not biologically
related. But I think you're right. The test should be retaken if the opportunity arises."
Zoe remained silent.
Why did they keep going in circles?
As she walked forward, Zoe casually said, "What do you think is the likelihood of an error in this
paternity test result? And, this matter is quite important to William, so the test must have been carried
out very carefully."
Daniel pursed his lips and didn't say anything.
Zoe looked at him and inquired, "Could you please answer one question honestly?"
In her tone, there was a rare seriousness and earnestness.
Daniel met her gaze and slowly replied, "Okay."
"Did you do the paternity test?"
"No."
She smiled and looked ahead. "Alright, I'm done asking."
Daniel felt as though she was aware of something as his eyebrows furrowed subtly.
He said, "Zoe, you—"
Zoe stopped in her tracks and pointed to the building in front of them. "You're staying at this hotel,
right? We're here."
Daniel turned his head and confirmed it.
Zoe waved at him. "I'm going now. You should go inside."
She had only taken a few steps when Daniel caught up with her, and she looked perplexed.
"It's late, and it's not safe for a girl like you to go home alone," Daniel explained.
Zoe was speechless. "Why didn't you think it was unsafe for me to go home alone sooner—"
"I'll walk you home."
Zoe didn't say anything.
She had reason to suspect that he had planned it from the beginning.
But on the way back, Daniel clearly lost his previous enthusiasm, his head low in thought.
And Zoe felt relieved by this.
The journey back always seemed to go by faster.
Standing at the entrance of the residential area, Zoe said, "Well, I'll—"
"Zoe."
Zoe responded, "Yes?"
Daniel stated, "There were some mistakes in the paternity test, but there were reasons for it. Can you
not tell Miss McKinney for now?"
Zoe's expression became serious. "So you admit it?"
"Admit what?"
"That you tampered with the paternity test."
Daniel shook his head. "It's not what you think."
Zoe asked, "Then what is it?"
"It's hard to explain this matter for now. Can I explain it to you when we return to Highside?"
Zoe looked at him. "You don't have to explain to me. Since you just said that you didn't conduct the
paternity test, I'll believe you. But it looks like you know whether Louis is William's son or not. And you
should also know that for Louis, this is not just a matter of an error in the paternity test result."
Daniel's brow furrowed deeper.
Zoe said, "I don't understand all your twists and turns. But Louis had endured a great deal of pain and
suffering because of the awful things Jethro had said to him. I'm sure you know that."
After speaking, Zoe waved at him. "I'm leaving. You should go too."
Daniel watched her walk away and remained silent.
He was correct; she not only knew, but she also had conclusive evidence; otherwise, she would not
have said that.
Daniel let out a sigh and turned to dial a number.
...
When she got home, Zoe turned down her mother's offer to chat and went to her room to lie down on
the bed. She slowly pulled out her phone with the intention of dialing Leanna's number, but after
realizing it was too late, she chose to send a message.
She lay there for a while before putting her phone down and getting up to get some water.
When she saw someone sitting in the living room, Zoe said, "Mom, why are you still awake?"
Sheila massaged her leg while saying, "I just got your father to sleep. I'll rest for a while."
With a glass of water in hand, Zoe approached her mother. "Is your foot bothering you again?"
"It's nothing. It's the same old pain. Resting will make it better." Sheila held onto Zoe's shoulder and
pulled her to sit down. "You were out with Daniel for so long. What did you talk about?"
Zoe pouted, put down the glass of water, and massaged her mother's shoulder. "Mom, do you really
like him?"
Sheila sighed and replied, "Whether I like him or not is not important. What matters is that you like him.
If he didn't fit your ideal type, your Dad and I wouldn't have—"
Zoe knew that her mother didn't want her to miss out on such an ideal match that was right in front of
her.
She interrupted, "But don't you think he's unreliable? Just by looking at him…He seems like a playboy.
Aren't you worried that we won't be together long and he'll dump me?"
"He wouldn't dare!" Sheila said, "You're so beautiful. Who would have the heart to dump you? It's just
that your ex-partners lacked taste."
She continued by holding Zoe's hand and adding, "But honey, let me tell you, whether it's a relationship
or a marriage, it takes effort from both sides. Even if someone is good to you at the beginning, you
shouldn't put all your trust in them. You won't be able to see their true colors until much later. I'm not
saying that it has to be Daniel, if you don't like him, then forget it. Love is a matter of fate, you don't
have to force yourself."
At this, Zoe lowered her head and didn't say anything.
Sheila patted her back and continued, "Alright, if there's nothing else, you should go back to Highside
tomorrow. Your Dad and I are both doing well. Don't let us affect your work."
Zoe hugged her and affectionately stated, "I don't want to go back."
Sheila smiled in response. "That's fine too. If you don't want to go back, your Dad and I will support
you."
Zoe nuzzled up against her. "You're the best, Mom."
"Didn't you say that I see you as a tool for having grandchildren?"
"That was just my bad temper talking."
Following that, Sheila wrapped her hand around Zoe's shoulder. "It's not that I want to have
grandchildren. I just hope that you have someone by your side to accompany and protect you because
your Dad and I are so far from you. What if you meet someone like Anthony or Brandon again?"
"I have quite a few friends in Highside, and they all look after me," Zoe said quietly.
"But those friends you mentioned will each have their lovers, homes, and lives. No one can be with you
at all times except your husband."
This sentence rang true with Zoe.
Just then, she leaned on Sheila's shoulder and said, "To be honest, Mom, I like someone else."
