"Oh dear! What the hell is going on?" she exclaimed, staring at the test result and repeatedly asking Charlie if he was mistaken.
Charlie shook his head. "I'm an adult. I will never be mistaken about an important thing like this. I've seen the child. He looks like me."
Mckenzie said anxiously, "Then why didn't you take him back and let me see him?"
Charlie answered, "I have to ask her for permission."
Mckenzie urged him to call Grace, saying that she would go to the hotel to see the child.
Charlie had no choice but to call Grace. She answered. Charlie nervously told her that Mckenzie wanted to see her son.
Fortunately, Grace didn't object. Charlie and Mckenzie immediately headed for the hotel.
Eaton was still awake. His eyes were wide open.
Grace dressed him and wrapped him in a thick blanket.
Andrew was still in her room. "Where are you going?"
Grace said, "To the downstairs cafe.
Someone wants to see Eaton."
Andrew was fond of watching the fun. How could he miss this chance?
Thus, Charlie and Mckenzie saw the two of them coming over together. Mckenzie was very excited.
Sitting opposite Grace, Mckenzie couldn't wait to hold the child in her arms, gently raising the blanket. The child's face was revealed.
"You have only twenty minutes. Once the time is up, I'll take him upstairs. It’s nine o'clock." Grace looked at the clock.
