Chapter 974 Appraisal Report
Back at the Cullen Mansion, Alice was really stressed out.
Avery threw a fit at her for skipping lunch.
Avery's marriage with Curtis was already on the rocks, bordering on splitting up.
Avery was heartbroken. The only person she could lean on was Alice. But Alice kept giving her reasons to worry.
Alice just shrugged and said, "I had lunch."
Worried about the whole blood type thing, Alice quickly got someone to run a DNA test.
The day she got the results, Alice was a nervous wreck.
She tested two samples: one from Avery and one from Rosalie.
Alice couldn't even think about what she'd do if she turned out to be Rosalie's kid. Everything she had would be gone.
She couldn't stand the idea of living with Rosalie in such a dump. 'Rosalie's a maid! Her daughter is Natalie! They're nobodies! I'm different; I am born into money!'
Wearing a baseball cap, sunglasses, and a mask, Alice went to pick up the test report. She ducked into a bathroom of the hospital and opened the report with Avery, her hands shaking.
Alice's eyes went wide. For a moment, she couldn't breathe, and her ears were ringing.
The report said she wasn't Avery's daughter.
Alice felt her blood pumping, but her face was numb.
She couldn't believe she wasn't Curtis and Avery's daughter.
'What’s gonna happen to me now? Without the Cullen family, how am I gonna get all that money? How can I keep living this fancy life? The Howards already kicked me out; if I'm not a Cullen, what then?' Thinking about it, Alice ripped Avery's test report to shreds without a second thought.
The bathroom was dead quiet, like she was the only one there.
The sound of tearing paper was super loud, like nails on a chalkboard.
Alice tossed the torn paper into the toilet and flushed it.
Watching the water swirl and the report disappear, she let out a heavy sigh.
She turned and looked at the other report in her hand. This one was from Rosalie.
Alice took a deep breath, her fingers trembling as she opened it.
Then her eyes went wide, and a growl came from her throat.
The test report clearly said she was Rosalie's daughter.
In shock, Alice tore the report up, crumpled it into a ball, and collapsed in a corner.
'Rosalie, a maid, is really my mom. This should've been Natalie's! But it's mine! I can't accept that I'm the daughter of a maid. But, Rosalie's always been nice to me. She must've known all along. If I'm Rosalie's daughter, then who's Natalie's mom?' Thinking about this, Alice trembled, torn between anger and horror. 'Could Natalie be the Cullen family's daughter? No way!'
The janitor outside heard noises from the bathroom and thought something was wrong, so she quickly came over. She knocked on the door, "Excuse me, do you need help?"
In the dead quiet, already feeling guilty, Alice was startled.
