Yvonne rubbed her eyebrows. “It's nothing. Shane, are you free now?”
"Yes, I am." Shane nodded.
Yvonne placed her hand down. "Great, I'm heading over to collect the report.”
"Sure, just come over," Shane smiled.
Yvonne hummed. Then, she hung up the phone and went out with her bag.
At the hospital, Shane handed her a document. "Here's everything you want."
Yvonne didn't speak as she took the document and opened it. Then, she took the report out and looked at the data. After seeing the result was the same as Shane said, she smiled happily. "Great!"
"Now, can you tell me who Hayden is?" Shane sat opposite her with his legs crossed.
Yvonne put the report back into the document and answered softly, "You know him too. He's Elliot Taylor from the Taylor Group."
"What?" Shane's glasses slid down halfway and he was shocked. "He’s the one?"
"Yes." Yvonne nodded.
Shane frowned. "I remember you suspected Elliot
before and you even did a test, but the result wasn't the same as this."
"That hair wasn't Elliot's.’’ Yvonne pointed at the document on her lap. "It is this time and I personally plucked it from his head."
Upon hearing this, Shane tilted his glasses. "I see, but why do you suspect him as Hayden again?”
Yvonne remained silent for a few seconds before she started to speak again, "It was also accidental. As you know, I’m staying over at Elliot’s now. When I went back a few days ago, I heard his call and it sounded suspicious. That's why I took the risk and gave it a try.
I didn’t expect the result to be the same as I thought."
"Looks like this is fate." Shane shook his head and smiled, ”1 didn't agree with you staying outside, but now it doesn’t seem to be a bad thing."
"I'm glad I went back to Elliot's apartment at that time, otherwise I would've missed that call.” Yvonne put her hair behind her ear and glanced at the clock on the wall.
It was already noon. She stood up with the document. " Okay, Shane. It's getting late. I have to end our conversation here and leave first."
"Go ahead. Send the good news to Henry." Shane also stood up from his chair.
Yvonne nodded lightly. "Yes, I will. Goodbye!"
She waved and walked towards the office door.
Shane followed her. "Let me send you out.”
Yvonne didn't refuse.
Shane didn't just send her out of the office, but out of the hospital. He even hailed a taxi and paid for her fare.
Yvonne was dumbfounded. She felt that he was treating her like a child.
"Miss, where are you going?" the driver asked.
Yvonne retracted her gaze from looking at Shane. "To the Lancaster Group... No, to Jillson Apartment."
She wanted to head directly to the Lancaster Group and share the news with Henry, but she suddenly changed her mind.
Before telling Henry, she thought it would be better to tell Elliot first. 2
Elliot had the priority to know his real identity!
Besides, she was also curious about his reaction after knowing his true identity and the choice that he would make after that.
Thinking about it, Yvonne took out her mobile phone t 0 call Elliot while holding the document in her arm tightly, as if it was a precious treasure that she was afraid to lose.
Soon, the phone was connected, and Elliot's frivolous voice passed through the phone. "How strange of you t 0 actually call me.”
"There's something I have to tell you," Yvonne said softly.
Elliot was shocked at her excitement and laughed," What’s wrong? Why are you welcoming me?"
Yvonne didn't speak but stared at him.
Elliot felt uneasy with her stare. He couldn't help frowning. "What's wrong with you? Is there anything o n my face? Why are you looking at me like this?"
"Elliot!" Yvonne finally spoke.
Elliot nodded. "Yes, I'm here."
Yvonne clenched her palm, trying to calm herself down. Then, she asked tentatively, "I remember you said you're an illegitimate son, right?"
Elliot didn't expect that she would bring this up. His face suddenly turned darker and the air became denser. "Yes, but why are you bringing this up?"
His voice was a little cold.
Yvonne could hear some anger from his voice and she could understand him. Ultimately, no one would want to hear someone else calling them an illegitimate son.
"I'm sorry. I'm asking because I want to know if you know which family you're from?" Yvonne asked again.
Elliot looked at her strangely. "This is what you want t o talk about?"
Yvonne nodded and shook her head. "Yes, but also no.
I hope you can answer me honestly. This is very important to me."
Elliot twitched the corner of his mouth, "I can answer you, but if you don’t give me a detailed explanation of why you're asking all these questions, I’ll be very unhappy about it." "Don't worry, I'll tell you." Yvonne looked at him.
Elliot was startled by the seriousness in her eyes, then he lifted his chin. "Since you’ve said so... I shall tell you. I know and I've always known."
"As expected!" Yvonne's eyes flashed.
Elliot heard her and narrowed his eyes. “As expected o f what?"
