Chapter 887 What If She Isn't Sam's Daughter
"Once Lynn finds out that this child is Jeremy's, I will never have peace again; danger will be everywhere. You can think of me as weak and cowardly if you want."
Olivia added, "My heart and spirit can't endure another round of insidious torment. Jeremy was always out of my league. I was raped by Sam; I can never formally discuss marriage with him. I've long since stopped fantasizing. I've also secretly decided that I can't keep this child."
"What?" Winnie couldn't believe how resolute she was!
"But Olivia, listen to me, Jeremy, as the child's biological father, has a right to know, doesn't he? The decision to keep or not keep the child shouldn't be yours alone to make so cruelly. Why are you deliberately making him misunderstand you?"
"Only this way will he give up on me," Olivia said with a bitter smile, her eyes glistening with tears of deep disappointment. "If he can't give up on Lynn, why should I hold on to such feelings? I'd rather not have him!"
"No matter how poor or miserable I am, I have my pride in matters of the heart. If he can't be entirely mine, then I don't want him, nor will I beg for him. My life has been completely ruined because of Sam. Winnie..."
She finished speaking, feeling a sense of relief, but the pain in her eyes seemed to pierce Winnie.
Why did Olivia have to endure such suffering? Why had she endured it for three years, and why would it continue for even longer?
What did she do wrong?
Olivia feared that the child in her womb would cause a storm in the DeRoss Family in Lymington.
She and her parents couldn't bear any more accusations from others.
She also didn't want to embarrass Jeremy. If it got out that the same woman had children with two brothers, Jeremy's reputation would be at stake, and such news would greatly affect the DeRoss Family.
Olivia wouldn't admit she liked Jeremy, but her actions showed she was always thinking of him.
She bore the shame of being called lowly.
Winnie felt it was so unfair for her!
What if... what if Mia was also Jeremy's child back then?
The thought, long forgotten, suddenly flashed through Winnie's mind.
She paused abruptly.
The first time she saw Mia, Mia's appearance was strikingly similar to Jeremy's.
Even Laura admitted that they thought Mia looked more like Jeremy's daughter.
But three years ago, Olivia was drugged at the club by Darcy, and it was Sam who claimed he raped her.
Coincidentally, Jeremy and Lynn also seemed to have had sex on the same night? According to Lawrence, Jeremy was poisoned, and Lynn sacrificed herself to save him.
What if there was a switch?
Otherwise, why did Mia's features resemble Jeremy's more than Sam's?
Jeremy was much more handsome than Sam, and Mia inherited the DeRoss Family's distinct features.
Winnie kept recalling Mia's features in her mind. She suddenly gripped Olivia's hand tightly, "Olivia, I'm sorry. I want you to carefully recall the night three years ago when the incident happened. How many men entered your room? Did you clearly see Sam's face?"
Mentioning that night of torment, Olivia's face turned pale.
She shook her head vigorously with a bitter smile, "The rumors were all spread by Darcy and Lynn! That night I was out of my mind, I don't remember anything, only that the man was very fierce and strong."
"After the incident, everyone said Sam was also at the club that night. I thought it looked like him; after all, he's a beast."
Winnie said, "Not necessarily, maybe you couldn't find the person who assaulted you and just assumed it was Sam?"
"Who else but a bastard like him could do such a terrible thing?" Olivia thought about Mia's appearance after she was born, which indeed resembled the DeRoss Family.
Laura had mentioned that Mia looked more like Jeremy.
Olivia had fantasized about it, but after Jeremy found his 'savior' Lynn and quickly got engaged, Olivia's last bit of fantasy was shattered.
A kid looking more like an uncle or a cousin wasn't unheard of in family genetics.
The well-known facts left Olivia no room for fantasy.
Mia was Sam's daughter.
"Olivia, the doubt lies in the fact that I heard Jeremy was also set up the night you were assaulted and ended up with Lynn. I've always thought, what if Lynn was deceitful and deliberately misled everyone?"
"Sam only found out about Mia's existence this past year. I suspect Lynn leaked this information to Sam! Did Sam ever do a paternity test with Mia? You assumed Sam raped you, so Mia must be his child, and you didn't consider other possibilities?"
Olivia shook her head, smiling bitterly in despair, "Do you think I'm that stupid? Winnie, Sam did a paternity test at some point, and I saw it. After seeing the test, my last bit of fantasy was gone."
Winnie frowned. Sam had done a paternity test?
"Did he do it in front of you?" she suddenly asked, looking up.
Olivia paused, wiping her tears with a frown, "When we were in Lymington, Sam suddenly barged into my house to take Mia. My parents and I moved urgently, and he threw the paternity test at my door."
"I don't know when he saw Mia and secretly took her hair before that. But the test result showed Mia was his daughter. Thinking about the incident three years ago, the conclusion was clear, and the paternity test couldn't be fake."
"What if it is fake?" Winnie didn't conclude so quickly, "Sam is insidious and cunning; you know that!"
"But why would he make a fake test?" Olivia retorted, "A bastard like Sam, how could he willingly claim a child that isn't his?"
Winnie was silent for a moment.
Maybe Sam was also deceived into thinking Mia was his child?
Then, even Sam wouldn't know the test was fake.
Who provided the fake test to deceive Sam?
Winnie's eyes narrowed, quickly thinking of Lynn.
Her fingers tightened slightly. According to Olivia, Lynn's whole family was no good. After the Smith Family's downfall, Lynn's parents took over Olivia's family's assets, climbed the social ladder, and committed all sorts of evil.
Lynn had been Darcy's follower for the past three years.
She must have learned many deceitful tricks from Darcy!
"Olivia, have you ever thought that maybe you and Sam were both deceived by Lynn back then? Lynn wanted Sam to discover Mia and make your life miserable! She had every motive. I think you need to redo a paternity test for Mia and Sam. Besides..."
Winnie suddenly picked up Olivia's phone, looked at the photos Lynn had sent again, and a cold smile appeared on her lips.
