The Spare Wife

Chapter 200 A Stray Cat

Josh returned to his car and received a call from Eric. “How did it go?” Eric asked urgently.

“The Quinn Family has only an elderly lady left, and she firmly claims that Abigail is her granddaughter. Could we really be mistaken?” Josh was in doubt.

Abigail also insisted that Analise was her relative, and her attitude was resolute.

“But she fell into the water at the Quinn Family’s vacation resort back then… Plus, weren’t you the one who rescued her?” Eric asked..

Their current lead was the Quinn Family never moving out from their village. Twenty years ago, this place was a well-known vacation resort where many wealthy people came to recuperate from their illnesses and rented houses in the Quinn Family’s village for years. The Pearsons had lost their youngest daughter during their vacation here, but over a decade ago, the resort had declined as tourism outside the area became more popular. Therefore, it gradually transformed into an ordinary village. The beaches disappeared, causing the village to significantly deteriorate to the point where very few young people were left.

“It’s too much of a coincidence. Why does she look so much like her? Also, why has she been living there?” he continued asking, addressing Josh’s silence.

“But why doesn’t she acknowledge it? If Abby recognizes her roots, we would gladly bring her back to the Pearsons to live out her days.” Josh said as he was filled with confusion.

“Maybe we need to investigate why she fell into the water back then. Perhaps the other party thought she was abandoned, which is why they refused to acknowledge your family,” Eric speculated since such misunderstandings were not uncommon.

“How can we possibly investigate what happened when she fell into the water all those years ago?” Josh’s voice rose slightly. After all, that was merely an accident.

“Speaking of which, I found out that Abigail nearly drowned once when she was in her teens,” Eric informed Josh.

“That doesn’t seem relevant, though. Let’s think of other ways. It would be great if we could do a DNA test directly,” Josh suggested to Eric.
