tell you.”“I see.” Elspeth smiled bitterly. She nodded and left the office. Then, she took a deep breath to hide her pain. Standing outside the door was a pair of identical men smiling and waving at her. The sight of them made her sadness go away a little. She approached Elias. “I’ve told the doctor to make your case the top priority. It’s been an hour, so the results should be out now.”Elias nodded in resignation. “That’s why we came. We’re not related. It’s just a beautiful misunderstanding.”Elspeth put her own problems aside. Surprised, she said, “Really? But that’s impossible!”Elias and Edmund exchanged a look, then they chuckled. “You actually believed that? My, you’ve gotten a lot stupider, Elspeth!”Edmund. Winthrop. How dare you trick me? “That was your idea, wasn’t it, Edmund? All just to prank me?”Elspeth suspected Edmund first because she knew how cheeky he could be. But this time, Edmund didn’t confess. Instead, he rolled his eyes. “You can’t pin the blame on me just because of your stereotypes. It could’ve been Elias. He’s not exactly innocent.”Elias shot Edmund a glare. “You’re the older brother here. Can’t you cover my *ss?”Edmund extended his hand and smacked Elias’ head. “As if. I didn’t even cover the Winthrop brothers when they needed me to. Why should I do it for you?”They’re so childish. Amused, Elspeth laughed. “You’re taking this well, Edmund. Don’t you care about the Winthrops?”Edmund stopped smiling. “I’m not part of that family. It’s a fact, and I can’t deny it. However, that would mean all this fighting against Callum had been for nothing. I’m a bit miffed, to be honest.”You still want to fight him right now? Elspeth’s lips twitched. But it’s good. At least they can get along now.Edmund knew what Elspeth was thinking, and he sneered. “Don’t think I’m going to get along with him. Now that I’m not part of the Winthrops, I don’t have to hold back anymore. I can fight him with all my might.”“And even then, you’d still lose,” muttered Elspeth.Edmund heard it, and his face fell. “Elspeth!”Elspeth held her laughter back and changed the topic. “Why don’t I take you to Mr. Irving’s place? You want to see your father, don’t you?” The light in Edmund’s eyes dimmed. “I do, but…” Edmund sighed. “But Mom might be heartbroken when she finds out. I’m not Arthur. I can’t just up and leave my family.”Elspeth nodded. “I knew you were good. You might have a short temper, but you’re a nice guy.”Annoyed, Edmund gnashed his teeth and smirked. “One more word and I’m smacking your head!”Elspeth stuck her tongue out and hid behind Elias.“Alright, enough. I’ve talked to Margot, and she’s letting you see Dad. Don’t worry about her.”Elspeth was starting to worry. It was good news for Irving but must be devastating for Margot. The fact that Edmund was someone else’s son meant her child could’ve been switched at birth or was dead.Edmund realized that as well. “Margot will always be my mother, no matter what.”Elspeth patted his shoulder. “Glad you feel that way. I’m sure Margot will be happy as well. Now let’s go to Mr. Irving’s place.”Edmund nodded, and Elias drove. They made their way to Irving’s place as fast as they could.The first thing Irving did after coming home was to purchase a villa and decorate it with some simple furniture. Looks a bit like home. When Elias told him that Edmund was coming, Irving paced around in excitement, and he kept changing clothes, wanting to meet Edmund in the perfect look. He could feel his heart coming to a stop just from delight alone when he finally heard the knock on the door.Elspeth led Edmund into the house. Edmund thought the man before him was unfamiliar, but he felt a sense of familiarity. It was probably a resonance within the blood.Moved by the reunion, Irving cried. “My son!” He stepped forth and hugged Edmund tightly.It was Edmund’s first time getting a big hug, and he tensed up nervously. “Mr. Cole.”Mr. Cole? The light in Irving’s eyes dimmed, but he didn’t give up. It’s our first meeting. Of course, he can’t call me Dad, but he will do it one day. “It’s alright. You’ll call me Dad someday.”He let go of Edmund, and then a sense of awkwardness filled the air.Time for some icebreaking. Elias said, “Dad, you’ve
