Keira was wavering, but she couldn’t show weakness at this.
moment.
With feigned confidence, she turned to old Mr. Martin, “Shall we go?“.
Her demeanor didn’t betray any fear at all..
Old Mr. Martin nodded. “We need to get to the bottom of this.”
No sooner had he spoken than Lewis chimed in. “My family owns a testing agency – how about we go there?”
Upon hearing this, Keira raised an eyebrow at him.
The statement was easily misunderstood, but she trusted Lewis, the scheming man, was certainly setting a trap.
As expected, Vera became agitated. “Go to a testing agency under the Horton Group? Are you serious? You’ll tamper with the test results!”
This made old Mr. Martin frown as well.
Scott then suggested, “What about the testing agency of the Gill family?”
Vera immediately retorted, “That won’t do either. Everyone knows their newly found daughter is as close as sisters with Keera – they would help her fake it too!”
Scott was dumbfounded. “We can’t go to the Gill family’s hospital, and I know you’ll definitely say we can’t go to the Olsen’s, so how about a public institution? That should be acceptable, right?”

Vera scoffed. “I don’t think that’s trustworthy either! After all, the power of the five major families in Clance is too overwhelming. It would be easy for them to falsify records at a public institution!”
Scott frowned. “Then what do you propose we do?”
Vera looked toward old‘ Mr. Martin
Old Mr. Martin sighed, “Tonight, I’ll collect the samples myself and send them to the Martin family’s testing agency. That should suffice, right?”
Vera was taken aback.
Before she could speak, Lewis interjected, “That’s acceptable. Do you need us to arrange a private jet for you?”
Vera was perplexed.
She immediately became vigilant. “Offering to arrange a private jet is a farce. You’re just trying to tamper with the sample on the plane, aren’t you? Mr. Horton, you are devious!”
Lewis frowned, “The Martin family has a special status and doesn’t have a private jet in the country. If you don’t use ours, then take a commercial flight. Shall we help you with the arrangements?”
Vera immediately said, “You’ll make the arrangements? I think you just want to meddle!”
Scott got angry, “Nothing is working for you, so what do we do?!”
Vera looked toward old Mr. Martin, narrowing her eyes.
Old Mr. Martin sighed, “In that case, I’ll have the testing personnel from the Martin family abroad bring the necessary equipment over. After all, this matter is of great importance, and we don’t

mind the hassle.”
Vera nodded immediately, “Right, to prevent them from causing any interference in the middle!”
Old Mr. Martin turned to Keira, “That settles it. Their transport of the equipment will take an estimated two days, so let’s set the test. for two days from now at the Martin family’s place.”
Keira nodded, “Alright.”
She then hesitatingly looked at Scott and Vera. “What about the two of you and the engagement banquet?”
Vera huffed.
Old Mr. Martin said, “Miss South, I have know your lineage. Let’s clarify matters before we proceed

Vera’s face darkened as she glared at Keira. “You Crerans are
you think indeed cunning as foxes. I underestimated you! But do delaying for two days will make a difference? Let me tell you, it’s useless! In two days when the results come out, I will still be engaged to Scott!”
She stepped forward, staring at Keira, “And you… will have to pay a corresponding price for deceiving old Mr. Martin!”
She left these words behind and angrily strode out!
It wasn’t until Vera left the banquet hall that she suddenly realized something and turned back abruptly. “I’ve been tricked again! DNA testing only takes two hours in Crera, and the Martins are making such a fuss that it will now take two days! They’ve just bought themselves two days for nothing!”

Vera stomped her foot in frustration, but then a fierce look flashed
in her eyes. “However, Keera, do you really think you can win?!”
She sneered and then took out her phone, making a call. “You can move against the Olsen family now!”
The person on the other end immediately said, “Yes!”
Back in the banquet hall.
Old Mr. Martin once again looked at Keira before leaving.
Scott quickly approached Keira. “I never imagined we would be relatives! If you’re my cousin, doesn’t that make us even closer?”
Erin also said, “Right, if you’re my cousin, it would be great to have you replace Vera! This is just fantastic!”
Keira looked at the two of them and twitched the corners of her mouth.
After a moment, she rubbed her forehead.
This lie seemed to be getting bigger and bigger. How was she going to smooth it over?!
She looked at Lewis.
Lewis gave her a reassuring look.
Just then, Keira’s phone rang. She answered, and the butler from the Olsen family shouted, “Miss, something happened to your
father!!”
