Chapter 369 It Was Too Pitiful That Mother and Daughter Couldn't Recognize Each Other

Tonight was Aragorn's birthday, and as his nephew, it was surprising that Paul didn't attend the birthday banquet.

Paul grinned and said, "I came to find you to hang out, but you weren't here, so I chatted with Lisa to pass the time."

Lisa said, "Paul is very nice; he even brought me some fruit."

"Lisa, it's getting late. You should rest now," Caroline said as she walked over and lowered the hospital bed, letting Lisa lie down.

After a while, Caroline and Paul walked out of the ward.

"Today is Aragorn's birthday. Why didn't you attend the birthday banquet?" Caroline asked casually.

"How did you know it's his birthday? Did Nicholas take you to the party?" Paul's eyes lit up.

'Nicholas is really capable.'

Caroline shook her head and said, "I heard about it."

Paul gave her a strange look.

"Caroline, what's going on between you and Nicholas?"

"Nicholas and I broke up a long time ago. We're just strangers now. Don't mention him in front of me anymore, and don't do anything weird."

A hint of determination flashed across Caroline's face, and her firm tone left no room for negotiation.

"And don't come looking for me anymore. I'll repay the money to that bank account regularly."

Paul was immediately angered by her words.

"Caroline, how can you be so heartless? I'm your beloved brother!"

Paul shouted, almost on the verge of tears as he clung to Caroline.

His outburst left Caroline momentarily at a loss.

"Caroline, whether you and Nicholas are lovers or enemies, I'm still your brother. That will never change. You can't drive me away or stop me from seeing you as my sister. I don't care; I'll keep coming to see you."

Paul clung to Caroline's arm, shaking it stubbornly.

Caroline remained silent.

The originally sad atmosphere was completely dispelled by Paul's words.

Faced with the stubborn Paul, Caroline was at a loss.

In Country M, it was already daytime, and Patricia was getting increasingly frustrated.

As soon as David came back, he arranged a job for her.

She didn't want to work at all.

She was much happier at home, sleeping in late every day, with a nanny preparing delicious food for her. After having lunch with her grandmother, she could go out and have fun.

It was hard to integrate into the elite circles here. Patricia had finally made two friends, but before she could hang out with them a few times, David insisted she go to work at the company.

Patricia was reluctant but had to put on a compliant and obedient front.

She gritted her teeth and went to David's company.

Fortunately, her position was quite relaxed, and she spent her days playing on her phone.

Patricia sat at her desk, scrolling through news from back home on her phone.

There was news about Gabriel today!

She hadn't seen any news about Gabriel in a long time.

Patricia clicked on it, and as she read, her expression turned very unpleasant.

It was a scandal about Gabriel.

But why wasn't the female lead Tiffany this time?

Patricia hated Tiffany. After Sophia died, Tiffany became Gabriel's girlfriend, and Tiffany was particularly difficult to deal with.

Once, when she went to see Gabriel, not only did she not get to see him, but Tiffany also mocked her harshly.

And she couldn't do anything about Tiffany.

That resentment still lingered in her heart.

When she returned home, she would definitely vent that anger!

With the Blackwood family backing her, she didn't even have to fear Gabriel.

Patricia thought, 'Wait, who is this woman?'

Patricia zoomed in on the photo, but it was so blurry that she couldn't make out who it was after a long time.

However, the silhouette looked a bit like Sophia.

Patricia's spirits lifted.

She looked at it again carefully.

'Sure enough, Gabriel still loves Sophia, finding a lover who resembles her!'

'But Gabriel's new lover isn't that great; she even has a child.'

Patricia took out a mirror and examined her own face.

She looked more like Sophia. Why couldn't Gabriel love her?

Patricia felt a pang of jealousy.

'Just wait; one day, I will make Gabriel fall in love with me!'

After returning from the trip, Emma couldn't wait to find Ruth to see the paternity test report for Caroline and Josie.

However, Ruth had gone back to Lancaster Manor.

Worried that Ruth might be unwell, Emma quickly called her.

"Hello."

"Great grandma, are you okay?" Emma missed Ruth.

Ethan and Sam crowded around Emma to listen to the call.

"I'm fine. Are you back?" Ruth's voice resonated with energy, indicating she wasn't sick.

"We're back, and we brought you a gift."

"What gift?"

"You'll see when you get it."

The kids kept it a mystery.

Ruth laughed heartily, eager to see the three children and hear their cute stories.

But it was late now, so she would have to wait until tomorrow.

"The report you wanted is already out. I put it in the drawer under the TV cabinet."

Emma's eyes lit up; she thought she would have to wait until tomorrow to see it.

"Great grandma, you're the best!"

Emma tossed the phone to Ethan and immediately jumped off the couch to find the report in the TV cabinet.

Ethan said, "Great grandma, you should rest early."

"You kids must be tired, too. Get some rest."

"Okay, goodnight, great-grandma."

After hanging up, Emma came over with the paternity test report.

She took the report out of the sealed bag.

Having seen a paternity test report before, Emma understood it immediately this time.

"Josie is really godmother's daughter."

Ethan was also shocked.

Sam looked puzzled, not understanding the situation.

Although he didn't fully grasp what Ethan and Emma were doing, he knew it must be something important.

When Ethan showed a serious expression, he followed suit.

Emma was extremely excited.

"Josie is godmother's daughter, so Josie is my little sister!"

Emma was overjoyed thatshe had a sister now.

Ethan didn't want to shatter her dream again. "Josie is older than you; she's your elder sister."

Emma's excited expression gradually faded.

After a while, Emma picked up the phone.

"I want to tell godmother."

"Wait." Ethan stopped her. "Don't tell godmother yet."

Emma was puzzled. "Why not?"

Ethan analyzed carefully, "Josie is godmother's daughter, but godmother thinks Josie is dead. There must be something fishy going on, and there must be a bad person behind it."

Emma was angry. "The bad person is Josie's fake mommy."

Ethan remembered overhearing something and said, "Godmother said Nicholas killed her child."

"But Nicholas is Josie's daddy," Emma was filled with confusion.

"I'm worried that revealing the truth might put Josie in danger, and maybe godmother, too. Emma, Sam, let's not rush to tell godmother."

"But if Godmother and Josie don't know the truth, that's too sad for them."
