When the Wind is Sweet: The Fairy Tale of Mr. and Mrs. Lancaster-Chapter 455: Even Suicidal Thoughts Arose
Sure enough, after a moment, the other side let out a cold laugh, "Are you puzzled? Why am I so indifferent to my own son?" 𝒇𝓻𝓮𝓮𝙬𝙚𝒃𝒏𝓸𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝓬𝓸𝒎
"Who is Adrian’s father?" Faye asked directly, "The man in the wheelchair is not his biological father at all."
The old estate at night, in the small building in the backyard, was extraordinarily quiet, with warm yellow lights.
Eliza Hayes thought she misheard, her heart skipped a beat, "What did you say?"
Faye didn’t understand the entanglements here, but she knew she was a member of the Lancaster Family, and even if she couldn’t get answers, she had to ask.
"Stop pretending." The girl also smiled, "I was able to obtain your sample, so getting a sample from a man who can’t take care of himself is a piece of cake. Besides, he’s with us now."
Who knows what Eliza Hayes is feeling now? Her mind exploded with a buzz! She stared wide-eyed, her mind went blank, and then she hung up the phone.
Faye listened to the busy tone in the phone, this response was unexpected for her.
Recalling every word from the call, yet she couldn’t capture any useful information.
"What did you say?"
Over and over, she recalled Eliza’s tone of that sentence... Faye felt a bit... strange.
Was it shock? Even she herself was surprised by the result?
Or was it shock at her ability to get Caleb’s sample?
Logically, there was no need to be shocked about obtaining Caleb’s sample, since the person had been taken away by them, wouldn’t it be a simple task?
So, Faye concluded that she was shocked by the result.
Could it be that Eliza didn’t know Adrian was not Caleb’s son?
Faye had many questions and felt she was close to the truth, yet as if it was still separated by a great distance.
The matters of the Lancaster Family might not be as simple as she thought.
In the quaint old house, Eliza Hayes seemed to be thunderstruck, her face turned pale as she backed away two steps, and in her panic, she accidentally bumped into a vase on the table.
Crash—
With a crisp shatter, the vase rolled and fell, breaking into pieces on the wooden floor!
It startled Eliza herself!
The noise brought in Nanny Warren from outside, despite their distant relationship and differing opinions, she was still the closest person.
So Nanny Warren pushed the door open, asking anxiously, "What’s wrong?"
Seeing the shards by her feet, Nanny Warren’s heart skipped a beat, "Be careful, step back! Don’t step on the broken glass!" She rushed over to clean up.
Eliza, filled with panic, grabbed Nanny Warren’s shoulder, her voice trembling, "I called Faye, do you know what she said?"
Nanny Warren couldn’t guess, but she looked terrified!
Meeting her gaze, Nanny Warren murmured, "What did she say?"
"She said... the man in the wheelchair is not Adrian’s biological father!" Eliza Hayes, as she conveyed this sentence, her voice trembled as much as her body.
Nanny Warren’s eyes widened in astonishment, dumbfounded!
The two exchanged glances, and the air in the room seemed to freeze.
Eliza Hayes, as if losing her senses, shook her shoulder, "Do you think the test result could be wrong? Could it be wrong?"
They both knew that since a test was done, the likelihood of error was minimal.
Nanny Warren didn’t answer, and Eliza slowly released her, retreating like a walking corpse, collapsing on the floor, too shocked for Nanny Warren to catch her.
Tears rolled down Eliza Hayes’ face, she felt like she wanted to die!
Nanny Warren’s strength seemed drained as well, but then she laughed, even breaking into laughter, "Hahaha... Hahahahaha!"
She seemed to be in shock too.
Eliza Hayes sat on the floor, surrounded by shards of glass and fallen roses.
Her throat tightened, she had difficulty breathing, as if a thousand silver needles were piercing her skin, the sharp pain spreading slowly from her arm to her whole body.
"Eliza Hayes..." For the first time, Nanny Warren addressed her by name, "Do you... regret it? Treating Adrian this way."
Regret!
She regretted it deeply!
