Chapter 706 Forcing Joe to Kill Hunter
Martin believed what Patricia said.
If it weren't for the deep bond they had since childhood, Hunter wouldn't have left no stone unturned to get Patricia.
"Whether he's your biological son or not, a DNA test will tell! I'll go talk to Mr. Hill. He seems quite shaken by this." Martin remarked.
Patricia grabbed Martin's hand and asked, "When are Mrs. Hill and Carol coming over?"
Patricia said, "Mrs. Hill has been greatly affected by Billy's situation, and she has been under the weather these days. Originally, Joe wanted Susan to stay home and rest. But Susan insisted on coming over. They should be arriving soon! If we don't resolve this issue quickly, Mrs. Hill will definitely be even more distressed."
Patricia wholeheartedly agreed with Martin.
No woman could accept her husband having an illegitimate child.
If they didn't clear Mr. Hill's reputation soon, the Hill family would be even more chaotic.
Martin patted Patricia's head, "You're right! So I need to go and resolve this with Mr. Hill! Charles and the other kids miss you a lot, so make sure to video call them with your father to let them know you're safe!"
"Charles is too smart. You've been out of touch for so long, he's been suspecting something happened to you."
"Luckily, Declan and Maria are there to take care of things at home, otherwise, I am afraid that he might come here on his own."
Patricia nodded with a smile, "Alright! I'll video call him later."
Martin kissed her on the forehead and got up to leave.
After leaving the wine cellar, Joe stayed in his room, racking his brain to remember the women he had been with.
However, it had been so long, and Joe deeply loved his current wife Susan, so he had forgotten all those women.
He couldn't even remember their faces, let alone their names. He couldn't match any of their faces with Hunter's.
As Joe was drowning in despair, he heard a knock on the door. Joe slowly lifted his head and weakly said, "Come in!"
The door opened. Martin walked in holding the knife that Sebastian had used to cut Hunter. Joe shifted to let Martin in, and after closing the door, he turned to look at the knife in Martin's hand, not understanding his intention.
Martin placed the knife in a clear plastic bag and then put the bag on the table.
"Mr. Hill, don't let Hunter affect you! He is indeed an illegitimate child, but his father is not you; he is the illegitimate son of the former leader of the Miller family, the most powerful family in Coutry M."
"He and Patricia grew up together, and Patricia knows his background very well."
"He said those words just to mess with us."
"I know this bothers you a lot, so I brought this knife with Hunter's blood on it. I'll go with you to do a DNA test right now."
"If he's not your son, we'll kill him immediately."
"He's too cunning. The longer he lives, the more trouble he can cause."
Joe looked at the blood on the knife, and his muddled mind suddenly cleared.
Joe had been thrown off by the sudden events and had lost his ability to think.
Actually, Joe should have thought of a paternity test to prove his innocence long ago.
With Martin's reminder, Joe immediately said, "Let's go right now! If it's confirmed that he's been toying with me, I'll tear him to pieces."
As for the reason and truth behind Hunter killing Billy, Joe no longer cared.
Joe just wanted to kill him quickly to eliminate future troubles.
Martin took the knife, and they drove to the paternity testing center.
Because of the many mistakes made previously, Martin was afraid of any issues and stayed vigilant the entire time, watching the examiner closely with Joe.
In less than three hours, the results were out. Joe couldn't wait to see the results.
The last column of the report stated that the probability of a parent-child relationship between Joe and Hunter was 99.9%, indicating a direct blood relationship, medically confirmed them as father and son.
At that moment, Joe was completely stunned. The report slipped from his hand like a falling leaf.
They actually were father and son.
Hunter was really his son? Joe couldn't accept this result.
How could it be?
When he lived with his ex-girlfriend, they always used condoms.
Where did it go wrong?
Although Joe's expression had revealed the result, Martin still unwillingly bent down to pick up the report from the floor.
Seeing the final result, his face changed instantly.
"Mr. Hill, he really is..." Before he could finish, the report was snatched away by another hand.
Joe and Martin both froze, staring in disbelief at Susan and Carol, who had appeared out of nowhere.
"What are you doing here?"
Susan seemed not to hear Joe's question, flipping through the paternity test report, searching for answers.
Carol's face was also pale, and Susan's voice trembled as she said, "After we got off the plane, Mom insisted on seeing the murderer, and then the murderer said, said that..."
At this point, Carol was too ashamed and angry to continue.
That murderer couldn't be Joe's illegitimate child. He was the one who killed Billy.
At that moment, Susan had already reached the last column.
Seeing the words "medically confirmed as father and son," she felt dizzy.
Joe anxiously tried to explain, "Susan, listen to me. I swear, since marrying you, I've only been with you. I love you and our family, and I've never cheated on you."
Susan threw the paternity test report at Joe, screaming, "Then tell me, what is this? Don't tell me it's fake!"
"I..." Joe wanted to explain but didn't know where to start.
Susan, thinking Joe was still trying to lie, slapped him hard across the face, tears streaming down her cheeks.
"Joe Hill, you liar! How long are you going to keep deceiving me?"
Carol, fearing Susan might get sick from the stress, quickly supported her. "Mom, maybe there's some misunderstanding. Let's figure it out first! Dad loves you so much; he would never do anything to hurt you."
Susan wiped her tears and gritted her teeth, "Fine! If it's a misunderstanding, then you kill him yourself to avenge Billy."
"I..." Joe didn't dare to agree. That was his biological son!
Susan pressed on. "If you kill him yourself to avenge Billy, I'll believe you, and our family can be like it was before."
