The Contract Marriage

Chapter 335 Paternity Test

Christian held Sarah’s shoulders tightly. His expression was so serious which Sarah had never seen before. Sarah’s heart was almost on her throat.

Christian took a deep breath and opened his mouth. “I said that Simona isn’t our child but that doesn’t mean that I am suspecting you.”

As soon as she heard that words “Simona isn’t our child” Sarah’s grievance blasted up one again. “Then what you mean by saying this? You…”

However, Christian interrupted her before she could continue, “Can you listen to me first before blasting up?”

Seeing her nod, Christian continued, “What I mean is, Simona isn’t your and my biological child. She is not related to us by blood.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Christian clearly felt Sarah’s body shook violently. Sarah opened her eyes wide and her whole body was trembling in Christian’s arms, “Simona isn’t our child? How can that be? Who is my child then?” Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.

If Simona isn’t her child, then where is her child?

Christian looked at Sarah's expression and went straight to the point. "Sarah, let me tell you this. I suspect Stephen is our real child!"

Sarah was once again stunned when she heard his words. After a while, she asked in surprise, "You. . . You said Stephen is our son?"

Christian nodded. "Yes, but I am only suspicious now. If we want to confirm it, we need to do a paternity test to know."

"If you are not sure, how can you say that at the first place?"

"Right now, it's determined from the blood type. I have AB blood type, and you have B blood type. But Simona's blood type is O. If our blood type is correct, then it's absolutely impossible for us to give birth to an O blood type child. That's why I determined that Simona isn't our biological daughter at all."

"Then. . . But. . . But I was indeed pregnant. . ." Sarah retorted in disbelief.

"Yes! I know! I suspect that Vivian found someone to change the child on the day you gave birth. If that is the case, it means that she wants a son. You are pregnant at the same time with her and you are carrying a boy. That is why she thought of this."

"But when she performed the surgery, she was more than an hour earlier than me. She was still unconscious at that time. How could she change the child?" Sarah’s thought it was simply unbelievable.

"She can't change. But if there was someone else's help, she would definitely be able to change."

"Someone else's help? The only person who can help her in the hospital is definitely the doctor. . ." When Sarah said this, her eyes suddenly widened, she looked at Christian. "Right, Christian! Greta is in that hospital. She can't be an accomplice, right?"

Christian frowned slightly. "You knew Greta worked in the hospital long ago?"

Sarah nodded. "Yes! I was just pregnant and went to the hospital for a checkup. I didn't expect to see Greta when I went in. That day, I directly left."

Christian nodded. So that’s what it is. After Greta saw Sarah that day, she must have bumped with Vivian who went to the same hospital. Vivian already had an ulterior motive and Greta wanted to take revenge from him, so they must have joined forces together. And in their ugly scheme, Sarah and his unborn child was the prey.

Good! Very good!

Christian looked at Sarah, who still had some tears in the corners of her eyes, he raised his hand and caressed her cheek. "You don't have to worry about anything else for now. The most important thing for us now is to see whether Stephen is our son or not. Today, we will take him for a DNA test, okay?"

When she heard Christian's words, Sarah's tears gushed out again. "Is he really our son? I always thought that. . ."

Previously, she thought that he was Vivian's son, so she kept a distance from him. When she thought of this, Sarah's heart felt indescribable discomfort.

"Now, we can't be 100% sure that he is. But from the current situation, it should be about the same. Don't be too sad. Isn't the child still in our house?"

Sarah nodded with tears in her eyes and looked at him apologetically. "I'm sorry! I misunderstood you just now. . ."

Christian heard her words and smiled. "No mother can remain calm after hearing this kind of thing. It's even more impossible for someone like you. When I knew about this, I felt very uncomfortable in my heart, not to mention that you were pregnant for ten months and gave birth to the child. And suddenly someone told you that it wasn't your child, no one could bear it. What makes us happy now is that Stephen hasn't left the Cooper Family yet, so we need to confirm the identity of the child as soon as possible. As for the matter of changing the child, we'll investigate further."

Sarah nodded. "Then let's go now!"

After knowing the truth, when she thought about how Stephen could be her biological son, Sarah wanted to go and do the appraisal immediately. She urgently wanted to know if Stephen was her real child or not.

Christian looked at the time on his watch and then stood up. "Okay, let's go now. You carry Stephen, I'll drive. Just the three of us. Remember, if the family asks, don't tell them the truth."

Sarah stood up. Hearing Christian, she nodded and walked towards the door. "Don't worry."

Sarah quickly carried Stephen out of the living room. Christian helped her open the door. Seeing her sit in, he then carefully closed the door and went around the driver's seat. He quickly started the car and left.

Along the way, Sarah looked at Stephen who was in her arms. She suddenly remembered what Daphne told her when Stephen was just born. "At that time, Aunt Daphne said that Vivian was not good to Stephen. She also wanted to. . ."

Sarah thought about Stephen forcefully being fed milk by Vivian not long after he was born, she was even more certain that Stephen was her son.

Thinking about how her little child was abused by that woman when he was just born, tears streamed down her face.

Listening to Sarah’s words, Christian also felt uncomfortable in his heart. He had heard about that incident from Daphne. At that time, he only felt that Vivian did not deserve to be a mother and he felt wronged for the child.

But who would have thought that he would only know today that the child who was abused was actually his own biological son!

Although it was not confirmed yet, he could see some clues from this matter.

Because if it was her own flesh and blood, how could Vivian treat the child so badly?

The more Sarah thought about it, the more her heart ached. Her tears could not stop no matter what. Looking at Stephen who was in her arms, she lowered her head and kissed him again and again. "Baby, I'm sorry! It was all mother's fault! It was mother's fault! She did not take good care of you! I'm sorry. . . Please forgive mother. . . I'm sorry. . ."

Stephen blinked his dark eyes and saw that his mother's expression was not good. Suddenly, he burst into tears as well.

“Wuuu…” The little child’s crying instantly echoed in the whole car.

"Stephen, don’t cry! Don't cry my baby! Mommy scared you. Baby Mommy was wrong. . ." Looking at her son who was crying, Sarah felt like her heart was being ripped apart. She tried to hold back her tears, but they kept rolling down her face.

Christian looked at Sarah in the rearview mirror with a solemn expression. He thought about how his child had been substituted, the joints of his hand that was holding the steering wheel turned white. There was an indescribable anger in his eyes.

They had made a phone call in advance, so as soon as the two of them went to the paternity appraisal center, the staff began to extract their sample. The family of three quickly retrieved the samples of blood, hair and saliva.

Because the two of them really wanted to know the truth, Christian paid an urgent fee, and the Staff told him to come and get the results in two days.

After coming out of the appraisal center, Christian took Stephen from Sarah’s arms. Seeing that the little guy's spirit had improved a lot, he lowered his head and kissed him.

Sarah’s spirit was still somewhat not good. Christian held Stephen with one hand and with the other hand holding Sarah's hand, he walked to the side of the car. "We are not going home this afternoon. Let's have lunch outside."

Christian wanted to comfort Sarah. This matter was too sudden. And it was inevitable that she would be shocked.

Sarah listened to him and thought for a while. In the end, she shook her head. "Forget it. Let's go home and eat. Simona is at home alone. . ."

Sarah was still worried about another child.

Christian heard her words and could not help but smile. He deliberately joked, "Wife, luckily you have a good heart. If you thought that Stephen was Vivian's son and did not feed him milk, my son would be in trouble!"

Christian kissed Stephen as he spoke. He smiled and said to the little guy, "Our Stephen have a good mother. Son, don't you agree?"

As if he understood his father’s words, Stephen giggled loudly making the two of them amused.

Sarah finally had a gratified smile on her face when she heard his words. Christian was right. If she had been a little selfish back then, her son, Stephen, would not have eaten her milk.

The family of three got into the car and Christian drove the car back to the villa.

When Sarah carried Stephen into the living room of the villa, she saw Simona crying loudly. The Maternity Matron hugging Simona and carrying her back and forth in the living room to coax her.

Sarah immediately passed the child to Christian and quickly walked over. She took Simona from Maternity Matron's arms. Sarah knew that the child was hungry. While gently coaxing her, she carried the little girl into the bedroom to feed her.

Christian stood in the living room with his son in his arms and watched Sarah carrying Simona as she left. He couldn't help but smile and shake his head. He felt a sense of relief in his heart.

Thinking the time since his son had been born until now, if it wasn't for Sarah’s kindness, his son, Stephen, wouldn't have had the chance to eat his mother's milk. With Vivian's ruthlessness, she would definitely have forced Stephen to drink milk powder.

If his son really followed Vivian, who knew what kind of torture he would have suffered. Thinking of this, Christian felt a chill run down his spine.

He lowered his head to look at his son who was playing in his arms, an indescribable fear lingering in his heart.

Fortunately, he had discovered this shocking truth within two months of the child’s birth.

Although Christian still did not dare to be 100% sure that Stephen was his own flesh and blood, from the time Vivian gave birth and seeing her attitude towards Stephen after that, it could be seen that Stephen wasn’t Vivian’s own child. So Christian could basically conclude that Stephen was his own biological son!

From this point of view, he should really thank the person who kept sending him messages. If it wasn't for him, he wouldn't have been in a hurry to find out the truth. It was even more impossible for him to know that Stephen was his son!

However, there was one thing he couldn't understand. Things like changing children. . . Even with Greta's help, if Vivian wanted to change the child, she must ensure first that when she gave birth, Sarah was also giving birth at the same time.

And there was another thing. Even if there was no one like Daphne or Julian outside Sarah’s operating room, they should be there for Vivian, right?

No matter how much they disliked Vivian, it was impossible for them not to wait outside the operating theatre when Vivian was giving birth.

Only when there was no one on both sides, would she be able to replace Stephen!

But coincidentally, that night, his father was suddenly hospitalized in critical condition!

Could Vivian be a prophet? She had predicted that his father would fall ill on the same night she gave first? And how could she predict that Sarah would also give first on the same time as her?

This was clearly impossible!

But how could Vivian happen to give birth on the same night his father was hospitalized? It was too much of a coincidence.

If it wasn't a coincidence, there was only one possibility!

The moment this thought popped up, Christian's brows suddenly furrowed.

It seemed like this matter was not as simple as it seemed on the surface.

But if it was really like this, then he would be even more certain that Stephen was his son!

It seemed that Vivian must have already found out that the child in her womb was a girl during the pregnancy. In order to achieve the goal of inheriting the Cooper Family's property, she was willing to do anything!

Christian hugged his son and pondered for a moment. Then he handed his son to Maternity Matron, who was not far away, and then called Mrs. Garcia, the head maid of Cooper family, to his study room.
