Relentless Pursuit After Divorce-Chapter 2082: Summer Hall Side Story (284)

The cold sneer in Thomas Smith’s eyes deepened as he spoke:

"You aborted this child not just to frame my sister and return to the Smith Family that easily, right?"

Thomas’s words made Olivia Smith’s pupils contract sharply again. She quickly lowered her eyes, not daring to let Thomas see the guilt rising from deep within her heart.

Thomas’s voice continued from above her head, carrying a mocking tone.

"Do you think aborting the child would prevent a DNA test?"

His words startled Olivia into raising her head abruptly. Despite her efforts to control the panic in her eyes, Thomas’s words directly targeted the thoughts deep within Olivia’s heart, so even while she was trying to hide it, her anxious and guilty look couldn’t be concealed.

"Sec...second brother, what are you saying, what DNA test?"

Thomas smiled, "What, didn’t you hear clearly what our big brother said that day?"

His words directly exposed the incident when Olivia deliberately fainted in her arms that day, adding more to the guilt in Olivia’s eyes.

"I...I don’t know what you’re talking about?"

"It’s okay if you don’t know. Given your education level, I didn’t expect you to understand much."

Thomas sneered and continued:

"However, I still want to educate you a bit. Even if the child is gone, useful information can still be extracted from the placenta for a DNA test, understand?"

After hearing Thomas’s words, Olivia felt her entire body trembling.

Every word Thomas spoke was driving her hope step by step toward despair, never to be reborn.

"Second brother..."

She still held onto the last bit of hope, gambling that the DNA test results would show the child was related to Thomas.

She looked at Thomas with eyes full of pain and hurt, choking out:

"You don’t believe me? Do you think I’ve done something to betray you?"

Thomas no longer wanted to waste words with her, showing signs of fatigue on his face. He looked at Evelyn Taylor and said:

"Mom, big brother is still waiting for me at the company. I’m leaving first."

"Alright, you go ahead."

Upon hearing Thomas leave, Olivia became even more anxious.

Thomas was easy to deceive; if the paternity test came out that the child was indeed Thomas’s, she had ways to make Thomas believe her.

But if he left, who knows what Evelyn and her daughter might do to scheme against her.

Seeing Thomas ready to walk out, Olivia hurried to get out of bed, ignoring her weak body, and rushed to the door to block him.

"Second brother, don’t go, don’t go, I beg you, I was wrong. I shouldn’t have used the child to frame our sister, but I really haven’t betrayed you, second brother, believe me..."

Fearing her words lacked persuasion, she raised three fingers in a swearing gesture, "Second brother, I swear by my integrity, I really didn’t betray you, this child is truly yours..."

Seeing her so resolute, Thomas was momentarily swayed.

Not for her, but for the innocent and tragically lost child.

He was completely disappointed with Olivia, yet as a father, he naturally hoped the child was his.

Olivia noticed Thomas’s originally firm face clearly softened quite a bit, secretly feeling delighted, when Evelyn Taylor’s phone rang—it’s from the hospital.

City First Hospital has a specialized center for paternity testing, and if expedited, the results can be out in just three hours.
