602 Chapter 601
Keira strode purposefully toward old Mr. Martin, gazing directly at him. "I'm not late, am I?"
Their agreed-upon time was ten in the morning.
Old Mr. Martin said, "No, you're not."
Keira nodded.
Old Mr. Martin led her into the house, with Lewis and Holly following closely behind.
No one stopped Lewis, but when Holly tried to enter, Vera stopped her. "This person is from the Special Division, Mr. Martin. Are you sure you want her here for the procedure?"
Before old Mr. Martin could speak, Keira retorted, "Aren't we here to do a DNA test today? That shouldn't be illegal, right? Why can't she stay? Or are you planning some illegal transaction and are afraid she'll witness it?"
That question silenced Vera.
She then sneered. "You always seemed so cold and aloof; I didn't expect you to be so sharp-tongued! However, regarding the Martin family's matter today, I won't allow her entrance!"
Vera gestured with a wave of her hand. "You guys, stop her for me!"
Following her command, several bodyguards immediately rushed forward, standing before Holly.
The bodyguards, clearly out of place among the Martin family's security guards, were all trained fighters.
Holly frowned, taking a step back.
Vera scoffed at her. "I heard old Mr. Sims is your grandfather. As a member of the Sims family who manages the Special Division, your skills should be quite impressive, right?"
Holly clenched her jaw.
Starting from her father's generation, her family no longer intended to take over the Special Division, so she hadn't practiced martial arts.
As she was thinking of a strategy, Keira suddenly approached and said, "Are you in charge of the entrance to the Martin residence?"
She asked old Mr. Martin, "Miss Sims is my friend. Mr. Martin, are you sure you won't let her in?"
Her words carried an implicit threat.
Old Mr. Martin paused for a moment.
Keira then smiled. "If the DNA test proves that I'm your granddaughter, then her being here as my friend is justifiable. If I'm not your granddaughter, having her here as a witness ensures nothing unlawful will occur. Vera, by stopping her from entering, are you planning to cause some kind of trouble here later?"
Stumped by these words, Vera was at a loss.
Keira walked over and took hold of Holly's wrist. "Come with me."
Holly followed her, and the two of them were the first to step through the doorway.
Vera took a deep breath and turned to old Mr. Martin. "Are you really going to indulge her like this?"
Old Mr. Martin, however, was watching Keira from behind, looking somewhat wistful.
Her haughty demeanor just now bore some resemblance to that woman from his past...
Suddenly, old Mr. Martin said, "Indeed, we won't be doing anything today that cannot be made public. It's just a DNA test. Letting her in is fine."
Vera's expression immediately darkened.
She sneered at old Mr. Martin. "Fine, fine! Mr. Martin, I hope you don't regret this! After the DNA results come out, if you beg me for the same deal, it won't be for the same price we previously discussed!"
After leaving behind those words, Vera strode into the living room, her gaze flickering with sharpness and malice.
Soon, the group of people entered the living room.
The family doctor was already there waiting. Material © of NôvelDrama.Org.
Seeing the group, he immediately came forward.
Old Mr. Martin promptly plucked one of his hair and then looked at Keira.
Keira looked at the family doctor and, without a word, also plucked her own hair and handed it to him.
The family doctor immediately turned and left with the hair.
Keira knew that now things had progressed this far, she would have to take it one step at a time...
She took a deep breath.
She took out her phone, opened the photo gallery, and handed a picture of Jodie South and herself to old Mr. Martin. "This is my mom. Mr. Martin, do you think she resembles your daughter?"
Upon seeing the photo, old Mr. Martin was slightly stunned.
Jodie South at fifteen certainly looked somewhat different from Jodie South at forty...
But he still recognized similar features in the photo...
He looked up from the photo to Keira, then back at the photo, and finally said, "You don't resemble your mom."
Keira nodded. "I take after my dad more."
Old Mr. Martin's eyes immediately teared up. "But you look a lot like your grandmother!"
When Keira heard this, she paused for a moment. Then, her expression lit up with surprise.
She had never met her grandmother. Back in Oceanion, Rebecca's father claimed to have collected a photo of Lady South, but in reality, he had provided a photo of her paternal grandmother instead.
Mr. Allen had been mistaken.
Therefore, when old Mr. Martin was searching for his first love, Keira didn't consider herself related to him until the last crisis when Lewis lied, which somehow made her feel that she might indeed be the old man's granddaughter.
However, she had been afraid to bring up the photo...
Could old Mr. Martin really be her grandfather?
Wasn't this too much of a coincidence?!
While Keira was mulling over this, Vera scoffed. "Did your mom really look like that? Is it photoshopped? Mr. Martin, I advise you not to recklessly claim relatives. How can there be such a coincidence?!"
After finishing her statement, she looked to the side. "Let's wait for the DNA test results before drawing conclusions. This ambiguous photo proves nothing!"
Old Mr. Martin wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes and nodded. "Indeed, in Crera, there are many people who look alike. We cannot conclude anything based on just one photo. Keera, let's wait for the DNA test results."
He called her "Keera," not "Miss Olsen." His voice was warm as if he had already made certain she was his granddaughter.
Seeing this, Vera felt even more irritated.
Just then, the family doctor returned. "The DNA test results are out."
Vera perked up at this. "Tell us the results, and let this old man learn that Keera is a fraud!"
