A Vengeful Ex-Wife novel Chapter 339

"I'm not sure if Maria is the one who gave birth to the baby, but I'm sure that you're the father! Think about it carefully. Have you ever cheated on her with another woman? Tell me the truth. Don't worry, I won't tell her about it!" Ethan said.

James stepped on the brake impatiently and parked the car on the side of the road. "Stop talking nonsense and start making sense."

Ethan sighed and clucked his tongue. He was still a little confused too. After all, he had never expected James to have a son! "You've really never noticed it before? Don't you think the boy resembles you?"

"No, I don't."

"Come on, you have really think about it."

James had to resist the urge to kick him. "Get out of the car if you're going to keep saying stupid things!"

"Is this how you ask for my help?" Ethan pouted.

"I'm going to have a paternity test," James said dully. He had wanted Ethan to help him find out if Bob was his son, but the young man seemed unreliable.

"Let me tell you this, your facial features might not be that similar, but the shape of his face is exactly like yours, especially when it comes to the ears. He is just a mini-version of you! I'm sure that he's your son. You don't even need to get a paternity test done."

Hearing Ethan's impassioned explanation, James lit a cigarette and slowly took a drag. "His blood type is also Rh negative."

Ethan clapped his hands. "I knew it! He's definitely your son, there's no doubt about it! Now the only question is, who is his mother?"

"Who else could it be?" James snorted and tightened his grip on the cigarette.

He couldn't figure out when Maria had gotten pregnant and how she had given birth to Bob.

Was it possible that the doctor had lied to him back then? That was the only possibility, and yet...it didn't make sense.

The doctor's loyalty lay with James. How could he dare to lie to him?

Ethan, who only saw the good side of things, beamed at him and gave him a thumbs-up sign. "Maria is cool!"

James just shot him a glare before taking out his phone and calling Gary.

"Find out what Maria had done in the first half of this year," he ordered.

"Okay, Mr. Xi."

That night, Maria went to James' villa early, but James himself didn't return until almost midnight.

Hearing the sound of the door opening, Maria, who was lying on the bed and fidgeting with her cell phone, stiffened. Although her heart was quivering, she pretended like everything was fine and turned her head to look at him. "Why are you home so late? Was there a lot of work?"

"Yes. Why haven't you slept yet?" James asked casually as he took off his coat and swung it over the chair at the end of the bed. Then, he sat on the edge of the bed and looked at Maria.

Maria had removed her make-up, revealing her bare, clear face. Staring back at him, she smiled slightly. "Well, you hadn't come back yet."

"I'm going to take a shower." James kissed her on the forehead before going into the bathroom.

Watching his back as he walked away, Maria felt that something was wrong.

He was too calm, almost in an unsettling way, like the calm before a storm.

When James got out of the shower, he got into bed and made love to Maria as usual.

Early the next morning, Maria opened her eyes as soon as she heard James walking out of the villa.

She had a very urgent matter to deal with that day. After getting ready in a hurry, she drove to HQ Road.

James discovered that he was too late. He had arranged for a DNA test.

But when he arrived at Augustine's house at three o'clock to take the baby, there was no sign of the little one.

Looking at the two elderly people sitting on the sofa with forlorn faces, he asked, "Where is Bob?"

"His family came and took him away," Augustine replied.

James felt as if a bolt of lightning had struck him. Clenching his jaw in anger, he asked, "Where are they now? How did they find him?"
