Chapter 379 The DNA Test

While everyone was gone, Joshua hastened to snoop around the house, but he still found nothing of

value after checking every nook and cranny. He was currently holding an old wooden box that he had

uncovered from storage before he mumbled begrudgingly, “Keeping everything under lock and key,

huh, you old geezer? Did you really think I don’t know how much stuff the family has?” The words had

only just escaped under his breath when Alexander and Elise came into the room. They said nothing to

one another as they sat on the couch, whereupon he proceeded to pour out a cup of tea for her, his

mannerisms leisurely.

The next second, Cameron strolled through the front door with four or five sinewy bodyguards in his

wake. Frightened by the sight of this, Joshua shrunk into a corner and exclaimed loudly, “You actually

called men over to drag me out? You best believe the police will hear about this! You’re not going to get

away with throwing me out!” Alexander was indifferent as he raised his cup and took a sip of his tea.

“Well, no one will find out about this if we move fast enough, will they?” As soon as Alexander said that,

Cameron lifted his hand to address the bodyguards sternly, “Get him.”

The bodyguards hurtled into the room after they heard the order and restrained Joshua at lightning

speed. Just as he let out a cry of protest, the bodyguards shoved a bunched-up rag into his mouth and

finished off the knot on the ropes that tied his arms to his torso. But even so, Joshua continued to put

up a fight, and amidst his muffled cries, he struggled to break free of the ropes. Seeing this only made

Elise exasperated and she walked up to the restless, apprehended man to stab a slender needle into

his neck, immediately knocking him out.

Then, turning to face Alexander, she shrugged nonchalantly and pointed out, “At least he’s quiet now.

You cut him too much slack.” Alexander choked in amusement. “Duly noted.” “So, what are you going

to do with him?” she asked. “We’ll have someone keep an eye on him,” he answered. “Your

grandmother still has a soft spot for him, so disposing of him quietly isn’t a viable option for us.” Elise

nodded in agreement. They couldn’t risk putting a strain on Laura’s nerves, at least not in her present

state of health. More importantly, Abel and his infernal persistence proved to be the bigger issue at

hand.

As things were, they had neither the time nor energy to waste on Joshua, but they knew they had to

deal a clean strike when the time came for him to show his hand. Meanwhile, the bodyguards were

carrying a restrained and gagged Joshua out the door when Jeanie turned up. Pretending to be

confused, she asked, “Oh, my, what’s going on here?”

“Nothing,” Elise replied indifferently. “Miss Gray, you’ll have to stay in with my grandfather for the time

being; don’t go out if you don’t have to.” The war was about to start, and with the Olson Family as the

enemy, someone had to make sure a backyard fire didn’t break out. “Okay.”

Jeanie nodded before she handed the thermal flask of soup over to Elise as she asked, “It took a whole

afternoon of stewing to obtain the perfect flavor. Won’t you try some of it?” In truth, Elise didn’t feel like

she could stomach food at the moment, but for some reason, when she turned and saw the earnest

look on Jeanie’s face, she couldn’t quite bring herself to say no. “I’ll have some,” she answered,

relenting as she took half a bowl of the soup. “Tastes pretty good to me. It’s fragrant and the amount of

salt is just right. I have to get going now; I have a couple errands to run.

Lock the doors, okay?” With that, she set the bowl down on the table next to her before she shot

Alexander a meaningful look. Then, the both of them walked out of the front door. It wasn’t until after

they were out of sight that Jeanie swiftly took the bowl Elise had used earlier. She had been watching

Elise earlier and knew which side of the bowl Elise had drunk from.

As such, she poured the rest of the soup away from the other side. Having done so, Jeanie anxiously

returned to her bedroom with the bowl in hand. This could be the only chance for her to reunite with her

lost daughter. Regardless of how slim the chances were, she wasn’t going to let it go.

However, the problem now lay in her ability to come up with the money for the expensive DNA test, for

when she left the Anderson Family, she had not a single penny to her name.
