"There must be some kind of misunderstanding, doctor. Are you sure this is the result?" Madam Shaw still refused to believe it.
There was no way her speculation could be wrong.
"There is no misunderstanding, Madam Shaw. This is the correct DNA report," the doctor replied.
"This is impossible..." Madam Shaw grabbed the doctor.
Just as she was about to say something, Julian took the report and said, "Thank you, doctor."
The doctor nodded and then left.
Madam Shaw still could not believe it.
"Are you satisfied now, mom?" Julian asked, looking calmly at his mother.
"Julian... I... This, this is impossible." Madam Shaw could not help expressing her disbelief.
Julian was ever the pacifist as he said, "Mom, I don't know what Susie has done to you that has caused you to distrust her so much. Now that the truth has been presented before you, there is nothing I can do if you still don’t want to believe it. Since you don't like Chessie so much, according to the contract, I’ll take her over to the Wrights after her rash has gone down." 1
Madam Shaw's expression turned ugly. It took her a long while to rearrange her thoughts and say, "No, I won’t allow that. Chessie is a daughter of the Shaws, and there is no way I will allow her to stay with the Wrights. What would other people say about me if they found out about it? Besides, the Wrights are a bunch of uneducated barbarians. If we left Chessie with them, I'm sure they would lead her astray.” 2
As soon as she saw the report, although Madam Shaw refused to admit it on the surface, she immediately believed it inwardly. Therefore, even if Chesney was a daughter and she did not like her very much, she was still a descendant of the Shaws, so there was no way she would allow her to stay with the Wrights.
"Please mind your words, Madam Shaw," Luna sneered as she squinted. "I'll definitely take Chessie away with me. If you refuse to let us take her away, then I'll see you in court. Also, don't you forget that it's exactly barbarians like us who risk their lives to protect you so you can enjoy your peaceful life.
Anyway, since Susie and Chessie have proven their innocence, let's turn the page. However, there is one thing I want to warn you about, Madam Shaw. If I ever hear you say anything bad about Susie or Chessie again, then don’t blame me for not giving you a second chance. Alright, let's go."
After saying that, Luna turned around and left. Anna made a face at Madam Shaw before following her mother.
Oliver and Jacob left as well.
"Julian, look at them. They are the culprits who caused my eye to look like this..." Madam Shaw tried t o tell Julian about them.
"Well, you should go home and rest then. I'm going to watch over Chessie." Upon saying that, Julian turned around and left as well, leaving Madam Shaw alone.
After a long while, Madam Shaw stamped her feet as frustration welled from her heart.
She did not understand how things had turned out this way. She had done everything for Julian, so why could he not understand her reasoning?
At night, on the roof of the hospital...
"Were you looking for me?" Jacob walked over.
Julian, who was standing by the rail, turned around and looked at Jacob. "It’s you three that followed my mom last night, right?"
Jacob pressed his lips and then replied, "Yes. We’re the ones who beat her up.”
"She is my mother.” Julian frowned.
"Yeah, she is your mother, but she is not mine," Jacob sneered. "You owe her, but neither Susie nor I do. Even the Wrights are not indebted to her. Oliver held back a lot this time, which is why she only sustained some surface wounds. If it were not for you, she would have already been dead."
A deep sense of exhaustion flashed across Julian’s eyes after he listened to Jacob.
Madam Shaw was the one who had brought him into this world, and that was a gift that he would never be able to pay back. Thus, no matter what she did, he could not bring himself to do anything to her.
However, Jacob was right. He was the one who owed her, not any other people. So why was it always Susan who got trapped in a perilous situation and not him?
Jacob felt a lot of sympathy when he saw the frown on Julian’s face. Usually, it was children who sharpened their teeth on their parents' bones. However, in Julian's case, he was the bone on which his mother sharpened her teeth. Perhaps he had done something terrible in his previous incarnation, and that's why he had Madam Shaw as a mother in his current life.
Jacob kept Julian company on the roof for a while.
