Chapter 170
Until they sat down, the two of them didnโt know what had happened, but looking at the glances between Chris and Jessica, they felt like they had fallen into some kind of trap.
Jaden whispered to Collin, โYou didnโt sign a servitude contract, right? Do I have to work for Jessica from now on?โ
Collin smiled and shook his head. โIt wouldnโt make sense if she wanted Hurricane Media.โ
โSo what are those two laughing about?โ
Dinner was quite lavish, and looking at the table full of dishes, the two of them felt even more nervous.
โWhatโs going on with you guys? Jessica, youโre not pregnant, are you?โ
Jessica said, โWhat kind of good news is that? Of course not. Today is a good day for you. Chris and I just invited you over for dinner because we were worried youโd be too excited.โ
Before the meal began, Chris handed the paternity test result to Collin.
โIโm sorry for taking your hair without your permission. The other hair sample was given to me by Captain Felton. According to the test results, the owner of the other hair is the sister youโve been searching for all these years.โ
Upon hearing this, Collin and Jaden were stunned.
They both looked up at Chris.
Seeing Collinโs eyes slowly redden, Jessica poured him a glass of red wine.
โTake a look first. Here are some recent photos of your sister. Maybe she looks a bit unfamiliar to you.โ
The kinship confirmation on the result was absolute truth.
The photos showed Mandyโs daily life, many taken abroad.
โShe isโฆโ
Jessica said, โCoincidentally, sheโs Mandy, the girl who was recently kidnapped and rescued by Roy. According to Mandyโs foster parents, she was found near Tenalit when she was three years old, sitting alone crying, with no one else around.โ
Feeling Collinโs body start to tremble from excitement, Jaden quickly pressed his shoulder and lowered his voice, saying, โWe found her. We found her.โ
Collinโs voice choked with sobs, โIs sheโฆ alright? Roy brought her back, right? Does she know?โ
โMandy doesnโt know yet. She got very sick soon after being taken to her foster parents. She lost all memories before she was three and doesnโt even know she was found. The good news is sheโs lived happily all these years. Her foster parents have only her and treat her very well. We havenโt told Mandy about this yet. She just came back and needs counseling.โ
Collin nodded quickly. โYes, donโt scare her. Iโฆ Iโm okay. As long as sheโs found and well, even if she canโt recognize us, that wonโt be a problem. When can I go see her?โ
Chris gently advised, โWe thought it would be better to wait until the kidnapping case is settled. Mandyโs psychological assessment isnโt finished yet. We donโt know if she suffered trauma from the kidnapping. Donโt rush.โ
That night, Collin drank quite a lot, finishing a whole bottle of red wine.
Jaden remained calm and didnโt drink, and it was Jaden who drove them home.
Collin held Mandyโs photos, crying one moment and laughing the next, unsure of what to say.
Jaden and Chris struggled to help him into the car and closed the door.
โThank you so much.โ Jaden stood straight and reached out to shake Chrisโs hand. โYouโve fulfilled his wish. Collin has always felt guilty about losing his sister. He blamed himself for it. But now, heโs finally found her.โ
