The Ex and Her Riches

Approaching Kieran, Gwendolyn asked, “Kieran, how’s the result?”

Wearing a grim expression, Kieran did not reply. He passed the handwritten report to Gwendolyn.

Bright red words in the lower right corner attracted Gwendolyn’s attention: Half-sibling relationship.

Although Gwendolyn could not comprehend the other medical terminologies in the report, she knew what the red words implied well.

To confirm, she asked, “Kieran, does this mean my DNA matches with Annie’s?”

Kieran nodded. “According to the results of my triple checks, it’s a half-sibling relationship. You both share the same father but have different mothers.”

This meant that Annie Steinfeld was actually Evelyn Harris.

No matter how much Evelyn argued, the evidence was irrefutable.

Gwendolyn was not at all surprised. In fact, she was quite satisfied with the result. “Thanks, Kieran.”

Kieran responded, “You’re welcome. However, now that we know that Annie is our illegitimate sister, what do you plan to do?”

Gwendolyn’s expression hardened. She had an innate disdain for the words “illegitimate sister.”

“Let’s keep this private, and we’ll handle it our family’s way. This time, I won’t give her any chance to turn the situation around,” Gwendolyn said.

Kieran remained silent, ready to support any decision that his sister would make.

Inez also despised the existence of illegitimate children as much as Gwendolyn and fully supported the latter’s decision to teach Evelyn a lesson.

It was already three in the afternoon. The corner of Gwendolyn’s lips curled into a slight smile. With a hint of irony in her voice, she mocked, “Annie’s days of pretense are numbered. Kieran, Inez, would you care to accompany me to the old villa to witness the upcoming spectacle?”

Kieran and Inez glanced at each other in tacit understanding. They were more than eager to watch Gwendolyn sort out the cunning woman.

As the trio left Kieran’s villa, Gwendolyn’s phone rang.
