Why the Crocodile Tears (by Flower Sock) novel Chapter 534

When did you get the DNA test done?Hannah frowned.

Dominic replied, After you told me Chloe’s birthday was in August.

He didn’t believe that Chloe wasn’t his daughter, so he had gone ahead and done the test a while ago. He just hadn’t had time to pick up the results until recently.

As Grace stared at the report, her face turned grim, and her breathing grew shallow.

Mom, are you okay?Dominic asked.

Don’t you Momme! I’m about ready to pass out from anger!Grace was fuming, practically shooting flames from her eyes.

She pointed at Chloe, then at Dominic and Hannah. YouYou two

She shut her eyes and slammed her palm on the table. She couldn’t even look at them right now.

They had kept a whole child from her.

Hannah, seeing Grace on the verge of collapse, said calmly, Mrs. Lancaster, don’t worry. Chloe is my daughter. She has nothing to do with the Lancaster family. I’ll leave with her now. Let’s just pretend today never happened.

With that, she reached for Chloe’s wrist.

But Chloe didn’t want to go.

Chloe, stop it. We’re going home. Now,Hannah said, her tone sharper this time.

This was the first time Chloe had seen Hannah look so stern.

Was Hannah upset because she went and found herself a father without asking first?

Mommy, do you really not like him?Chloe asked cautiously.

Hannah paused. Her eyes drifted to Dominic with a complicated look.

She had liked him once. But now

Instead of answering, she let out a quiet sigh and tugged Chloe’s hand to leave.

But as soon as she touched Chloe, the little girl yelped. Mommy, it hurts!

What’s wrong?Hannah’s expression paled in an instant. She crouched down and asked, Where does it hurt?My tummyIt really hurtsChloe’s face turned pale, making her look pitiful.

I’m taking you to the hospital!

Hannahı hurriedly scooped Chloe into her arms, trying to leave, but Dominic stepped in and blocked her way. Get out of my way!Hannah shouted, her voice laced with a hint of a choked sob. Can’t you see she’s in pain?When it came to Chloe, she lost all sense of calm. No mother could stay composed seeing their child suffer. Grace looked at her anxious look, then finally turned around and said stiffly, We have a family doctor. He’ll be here in five minutes. No need to drag the kid all over town.

Hannah froze.

Dominic had already called the doctor, who arrived quickly and examined Chloe.

Is she going to be okay?Hannah hovered nervously, wringing her hands together.

Grace also turned to the doctor, waiting for an answer.

She has acute gastroenteritis. An IV infusion and she’ll be fine,the doctor replied.

The tension in Hannah’s shoulders released at once, and she staggered a little. Before she could fall, a strong hand caught her by the elbow.

That familiar amber scent wrapped around her. Dominic’s deep, steady voice murmured in her ear, She’s alright. Don’t worry.

Hannah finally nodded. As she looked at Chloe, she opened her mouth to speak but stopped halfway.

She wanted to take her home and didn’t want to leave her here with the Lancasters. After all, Grace clearly didn’t welcome them.
