“No, I don’t know anything, but Zhengrong told me that he had seen an identical woman to you at Egger’s place before…”
An identical woman to me?
Pei Ge instantly thought of that imposter of hers.
She had once suspected Ji Ziming of having done it to spite her, but now…
That was actually Egger’s arrangement?!
Her expression became more serious.
She thought of how that guy had behaved so gentlemanly and flawlessly before her all these years. Was that man putting on an act all this time?!
“Xiaoyu, I want to send someone to the hospital where my kids were born to investigate.”
She came to a decision after mulling it over for a while.
“Since Ji Ziming has never touched Qiao Jingyun, yet Ji Chi is his flesh and blood… maybe there’s a discrepancy somewhere.”
She would leave people to investigate what went down at the hospital back then, while she would return home to take a paternity test with Ji Chi!
“Mhm.”
After that, her best friend returned to her neutral expression, unwilling to say anything else to her, but she knew that the other no longer hated her from the fact that she could get such important information from her. The other was just upset and had not gotten through it.
“Xiaoyu, thank you; I’ll e back with the truth after I sort everything out.”
She had e to bid goodbye with a heavy heart at the hospital, but when she left, there was a lot more hope in her eyes.
After she made a call to her subordinates in New York through the phone and made the necessary arrangements, she returned home.
When she saw the trio waiting for her, dressed and packed, she felt happy.
“Mommy, are we going back to see brother?”
“Yay! Ran Ran misses brother so much!”
The two little buns discussed what they wanted to play with Ji Chi once they saw him again.
Pei Ge was just as excited as them.
How great would it be if Ji Chi were Ping An…
She did not expect her subordinates to be quite efficient.
…
“Qiao Jingyun, don’t say that I didn’t warn you, but those have found out that Ji Chi isn’t your son and even suspect that he’s Pei Ge’s child…”
“What?!”
The teacup in her hand, which she was sipping from leisurely in her opulent study, shook when she heard this news over the phone.
“That couldn’t be! Didn’t you guarantee that no one would find out?!”
Her voice was full of fear.
Ji Chi was one of her trump cards.
As for her ultimate trump card—
“One more friendly reminder: Ji Ziming learned that you’re not his benefactor. Haven’t you noticed that he’s presently investigating that kidnapping incident from years ago…”
Pak!
The cup in her hand fell to the ground and broke into pieces.
“What did you say…”
She gripped her phone with a pale hand; it was as if she were grasping on her last straw.
“You’re on your own now.”
The person on the other end then hung up.
As she hung onto her phone dazedly, panic, fear, and hatred flashed across her eyes…
She sat there in a daze before a twisted smile appeared on her face.
“In the end, the truth always es out; there’s no hiding it…”
“Ha ha ha ha ha!”
She started laughing rather creepily.
“What to do, Pei Ge? I don’t wanna let you win. Ha ha ha! What if you know? I’ll never! Ever! Give in!”
…
“Dear passengers…”
The plane with the couple and their two kids landed following this announcement.
Outside the plane, the sun was shining brightly, and the weather was fine.
With all her thoughts on Ji Chi, Pei Ge did not bother herself with the purpose of Ji Ziming’s return.
“Take a trip to my family’s villa with me.”
The man told her after they got in his Benz which was there to pick them up.
She nodded without thinking.
After all, she remembered that the boy was in that house.
“Okay!”
She looked at him with a smile.
“An An and Ran Ran are ing along, too.”
He was looking at the two when he said that.
The family of four, thus, headed to the Jis’ villa.
On their way there, the woman was tempted to tell the man that there was a high chance of his son being her child, but thinking that it would be awkward if that were not the case, she decided to just surprise him with it.
The car quickly arrived at the villa amid a warm atmosphere.
The couple held the kids and walked into the living room of the villa.
Upon entering, they found that the living room was rather lively.
“Ziming!”
“Ziming!”
His parents and Qu Jingwan’s parents were there. To Pei Ge’s surprise, there was also an elderly lazily sitting next to the young lady.
She was dressed in a purple cheongsam. Even though her hair was white, she looked elegant and beautiful.
Looking at her aged face, it was clear that she was beautiful in her prime.
What caught her attention was not the elderly woman’s appearance or aura but the way she looked at her, instead.
This was their first meeting, but the elderly woman’s gaze on her was… murderous?
She felt that she was imagining things, for she really did not know this woman!
This was when something more shocking caught her attention.
“Dad, mom, I’m not marrying Qu Jingwan; I will only marry Pei Ge—the woman who gave birth to my two children.”
