Bernard took a deep breath, keeping his inner frustration in check, and signaled to Caleb who immediately handed over the documents.
While Bernard was flipping through the documents, Caleb started to brief him:
"Emilia almost got beaten to death while begging in G country at the age of five. Ethan saved her, and later even funded her education. Emilia fell hard for Ethan, and spent a good ten years chasing after him. Ethan was not initially interested in Emilia, but for some reason he accepted her and they'd been in love for six years. The breaking point in their relationship was the year Ethan was framed and thrown into jail. Ethan was locked up for a year, waiting for Emilia to visit him, but she never showed up which really got his goat. Upon his release, he found out Emilia had married his brother, the illegitimate child of the Ziegler family that the Royal Family of Arvandor had adopted, and they even had a one-year-old daughter.
“Ethan couldn’t swallow this pill, and he completely lost it when he saw Emilia with the royal member. To get back at Emilia, he used his family's power to force her to divorce and kept her by his side. During that time, Ethan took some really nasty measures against Emilia, who had just been diagnosed with ALS.
“Later, Emilia was forced to carry Ethan's child under mental and physical torment, but Ethan didn't buy it and kicked her pregnant belly. Perhaps this was the last straw for Emilia, so she started to sweet-talk Ethan, tried to make him let go of his resentment, and to follow the royal member once again...
“Ethan was even more tormented. Rumor has it that he stirred up trouble within the Royal Family of Arvandor just to force the royal member to hand over Emilia...
Later, unable to bear the pain of ALS and to escape from Ethan forever, Emilia chose euthanasia. But at this time, George found her biological sister, Eleanor, and Emilia decided to return home to donate her heart..."
After Caleb finished his report, he looked at Bernard who didn't seem to be paying attention at all. Caleb didn't understand why Bernard looked so down. He was about to get married, he should be happy. Why did he look so gloomy?
Caleb cleared his throat and gently reminded him, "Sir, I've finished the report..."
Bernard was silent for a few seconds, put down the documents in his hand, and looked at Caleb, "Whose kid is that Nina?"
He didn't care about the disputes between Ethan and Emilia, but that child was the only family Eleanor had in this world. He had to help her find out, who Nina's biological father was.
Caleb glanced at Bernard, took out two paternity test reports from the stack of documents he had just read, and sighed helplessly.
"Sir, as you can see, these two reports show that Nina and Ethan are not biologically related, but she is related to the royal member."
After carefully examining the reports several times, Bernard's brow slowly furrowed. The fact that Nina and Ethan were not related by blood meant that Emilia did betray Ethan...
