Chapter 206 Mr. Zackary Wanted the Paternity Test Results!

The mist, for a moment, clouded Penelope's eyes.

Her bright red lips trembled slightly, but in the end, she didn't say a word.

She just murmured softly in her heart.

It was too late.

Zack, it was really too late.

If it had been before Ethan's accident, if he had been willing to say such words to her, she would have definitely burst into tears and thrown herself into his arms, pouring out all her embarrassment and grievances, telling him how hard she had been living for the past four years, how much she missed him in that place where the sun never shone.

But Ethan had an accident.

On the edge of the cliff, he abandoned Ethan without hesitation for Lola.

And there was Corona...

If it hadn't been for his deliberate trouble-making, refusing to testify for Corona, perhaps, Corona wouldn't have died so brutally!

Ethan had become a cripple, Corona had been buried in the belly of a fish. Between them, there was too much, too much that they could never go back to.

Moreover, he repeatedly said he would trust her, but when it came to Lola, he still chose to believe Lola without hesitation.

If she were to say that she was forced by Lola to break up with him years ago, he still wouldn't believe it.

Penelope laughed at herself, she gathered her scattered thoughts and spoke with a blank expression, "Mr. Spencer, let me apply the medicine for you."

After taking the medicine, bridges returned to being bridges, roads returned to being roads, no one belonged to anyone.

Zackary truly felt that he had made a significant concession today. He didn't even hold it against her for using that video to harm Lola, and he even gave her a chance to explain what happened four years ago. Yet, she didn't show any gratitude or appreciation. She really didn't know how to appreciate kindness!

A strong malicious aura, for a moment, diffused in his eyes, but just as it was about to explode, he forcefully suppressed it back down.

Since he couldn't bear to let her go, even if she didn't appreciate his efforts, he had to, for the time being, endure it.

"Penelope, explain to me!" Zackary commanded, his eyes burning as he stared down at Penelope.

Listening to his commands to her, Penelope suddenly laughed.

Her laughter was truly beautiful, with the corners of her lips slightly raised, that hint of charm was just like thousands of peach trees in full bloom.

However, the peach blossoms bloomed in abundance, but there was no warmth of spring, only the cold indifference of world-weariness and self-mockery.

"Mr. Spencer, what do you want me to explain to you? The incident from four years ago, when Lola forced me by threatening my grandmother's life?!"

"Penelope! You really are incorrigible! I gave you a chance, but you threw dirt on Lola again! Penelope, you are simply..."

"Ha!" Penelope interrupted Zackary's words with a cold laugh, "Mr. Spencer, me, throwing mud at Lola? You don't believe me at all!"

"Since you didn't believe me, yet you still insisted on me explaining, isn't that ridiculous?! Mr. Spencer, you are truly ridiculous!"

"Mr. Spencer, I don't know why you're so ridiculous, all I know is, Ethan and I, we don't need you anymore!"

"Once, Ethan desperately wanted you as his father. He yearned for your care, he yearned for paternal love, but you didn't care about him at all. You even pushed him into the abyss yourself! Mr. Spencer, thanks to you, Ethan said, he no longer has a father! His father is long dead, dead in his heart!"

"Penelope!"

Zackary rudely grabbed Penelope's shoulder, but upon meeting the boundless desolation in her eyes, his gritted voice unconsciously took on a hint of tremor.

"Penelope, that wild...little...Ethan is truly my own flesh and blood?! You didn't kill our child?!"

Penelope suddenly turned her face to one side, using all her strength to suppress the lump in her throat.

"Mr. Spencer, you're overthinking it," I said. "Ethan's father is already dead! Ethan, he doesn't have a father anymore!"

Zackary frowned deeply, truly feeling that he was quite a masochist.

In the past, when Penelope humbly begged him to believe that Ethan was his own flesh and blood, he didn't believe it. But now, when she said that Ethan had no father, he suddenly somewhat believed that Ethan was his own flesh and blood.

If Ethan really was his own flesh and blood...

Zackary, such a tough man, surprisingly couldn't control his body from trembling.

If Ethan really was his own flesh and blood, it proved that four years ago, Penelope did not abort their child. Her breaking up with him truly had a compelling reason.

And he, however, cruelly retaliated against her time and time again. Even on the edge of a cliff, he abandoned his own flesh and blood!

Zackary's fists suddenly tightened, yet his fingertips were still trembling severely. Ethan had become a cripple.

It was him who caused his own son to become a cripple!

Moreover, it was a miracle that Ethan could become a cripple. With such a high cliff, he fell hard. The greater possibility was that he would have been smashed to pieces, with no body left intact!

"Penelope, I..."

Zackary had so much he wanted to say to Penelope, but in the end, he didn't know what to say.

"Mr. Spencer, don't mention Ethan again in the future. Ethan... Ethan has been crippled by you. If you have any conscience left, don't mention him again!" Penelope took a deep breath, then continued, "Mr. Spencer, please go back! I really don't welcome you here!"

Zackary didn't want to leave, but the realization that Ethan might be his own flesh and blood made him feel an unprecedented embarrassment. For the first time, when Penelope drove him away, he didn't grit his teeth and roar at her neck, but instead, he grabbed his clothes and left almost in a panic.

Standing in the hallway, casually pulling on his shirt, his upright figure and impeccable handsome face could make countless women infatuated.

However, at that moment, there was not a trace of worldly desires on this face, only a suffocating loneliness.

He irritably lit a cigarette, puffing out clouds of smoke. However, after only a few puffs, he remembered that Penelope hated men who smoked. Frowning, he forcefully stubbed out the cigarette.

After a long while, he finally took out his phone and dialed Samuel's number.

"Boss, what's up?" Samuel had just had a few drinks with a couple of friends when he received a call from Zackary. His body instantly tensed up, immediately going into emergency preparedness mode.

"I wanted to do a paternity test!"

"Cough, cough..." Senior Assistant Mr. Samuel almost choked on his own saliva. He knew that he, a small fry, shouldn't meddle in the boss's private affairs. But if he didn't ask anything, he wouldn't know how to arrange a paternity test for the boss!

Samuel asked nervously, "Boss, do you have an illegitimate child?!"

Bastard?

This word inexplicably irritated Zackary.

He commanded coldly, "I want a paternity test with Ethan! I want to see the results before tomorrow morning!"

After saying this, he immediately hung up the phone.

Samuel, however, was so scared that he jumped right up from his seat.

The boss wanted the results by tomorrow morning, that was just too brutal!

They still needed to get Ethan's hair, still needed to test it, the boss was practically asking for his life!

Although the task was somewhat difficult, as a competent senior assistant, Samuel still had to face the challenge.

Xavier was Cornelia's teacher, he had some connections with him, he also knew a few people around Xavier, getting them to help obtain Ethan's hair was not difficult.

That night, Senior Assistant Mr. Samuel exerted all his strength and finally managed to get Ethan's hair. Before dawn, he also successfully waited for the paternity test report to be released.

Yawning, Samuel dialed Zackary's number, "Boss, the paternity test results are out!"
