Chapter 142
No matter what Ophelia thought, Lila had already made up her mind to completely crush Alice, not only to take back everything that belonged to her but also to make Alice lose everything.
"Ophelia, if you're scared, I can talk to Mr. Bailey," Lila said softly, placing a hand on Ophelia's shoulder. "If Mr. Bailey doesn't believe us, we can do a paternity test. With his connections, we should get the results quickly. What do you think?"
Ophelia looked up at Lila, her lips moved, but she didn't speak. Was she scared? Indeed, she was afraid that even if she knew who her parents were, she couldn't return to that home. She was afraid that Lucas didn't actually want to acknowledge her. But she was unwilling to give up! All of this was originally hers! Alice had taken it for a long time, now it should be returned to her, right?
She didn't expect the fake Alice to pay for anything, after all, Alice had helped her many times. She just wanted to take back what belonged to her: her family, her identity, her name, and her lover David.
Finally, Ophelia nodded, "Okay, thank you, Lila."
The next day, Marcus received a text message, simple and direct: If you don't stop David and Alice's engagement, you will regret it for the rest of your life. Because Alice is not your biological daughter!
At first, Marcus didn't believe it. Alice was brought back by Lucas himself, and Lucas blamed him for not fulfilling his duties as Alice's father. Why should the grudges of the previous generation involve Alice? Besides, Saskia was dead, what was there to fight over?
However, the other party was so firm that it aroused his curiosity. Was he jealous of the Bailey family and the Tudor family becoming relatives, using this method to sabotage the marriage?
Marcus glanced at the address in the text message and drove to the hospital. As soon as he walked into the lobby, a voice sounded behind him, "Mr. Bailey."
Marcus turned around, and Lila walked towards him with Ophelia. "Hello, my name is Lila, I sent you the text message, I hope you don't mind my abruptness."
Marcus shook hands, glanced at Ophelia, then looked back at Lila, "You sent me the text message? Who instructed you? Are you jealous of the Bailey family and the Tudor family becoming relatives, deliberately causing trouble?" He laughed, "Such a low-level trick, I don't believe it. I don't have time to play these games with you, go back and tell that person, the marriage between the Bailey family and the Tudor family is confirmed, don't waste your time!"
After speaking, Marcus was about to leave. At this moment, Lila spoke, "Mr. Bailey, the marriage between the Bailey family and the Tudor family is a big deal, but what I told you in the text message is true."
"True?" Marcus sneered, "You say Alice is not my daughter? Where's the evidence? Do you think I'll believe you just because you said so? Ms. Green, I don't know what game you're playing, but I warn you, if this messes up, I won't let you off!"
He had been waiting for this day for a long time, how could he stop the plan because of a text message?
Lila said calmly, "Mr. Bailey, if Alice is not your biological daughter, what will happen to this engagement? I know your plans, but if the investigation results show otherwise..."
Lila took a document from her bag and handed it to Marcus, "Mr. Bailey, take a look at this information first, it will only take a few minutes, I believe you have the time."
Marcus took the document half-believingly and walked to the side to read it. Ophelia nervously grabbed Lila's arm, "Lila, will he believe it? Will he think the information is fake? Will he not acknowledge me?"
Lila looked at Marcus and comforted her, "Don't worry, you can testify here. If he doesn't believe it, we can do a paternity test, we can get the results as soon as tomorrow, I will help you take back everything."
"Thank you, Lila."
On the other side, Marcus finished reading the information, his eyes widened. He couldn't believe it, how could this be possible! Lucas clearly brought Alice back from outside.
A bold guess emerged in his mind, sending a chill down his spine. Marcus clenched the information, walked over with a stern face.
Due to the public setting, Marcus didn't question loudly, but his face was very ugly. "Tell me, this information is fake! Impossible!"
Ophelia's heart sank when she heard these words, her eyes welled up, her lips moved several times, wanting to call out "Dad."
Lila looked directly into Marcus's eyes, "Mr. Bailey, all the content is true. If you don't believe it, you can do a paternity test."
Marcus was stunned, his gaze finally resting on Ophelia.
"You."
Lila continued, "She is your biological daughter, Lucas sent her to the orphanage, and her adoptive parents' account receives a sum of money every month. These are all facts, you can check them yourself. I'm telling you this now because I don't want the mistake to continue, and you wouldn't want the business you've worked so hard to build to stop here, right?"
Ophelia bit her lip, mustered up the courage, and choked out, "Dad."
