Chapter 0333

My smile is very, very genuine when Daniel finally bursts into the examination room, because it has been absolute torture waitinghere with Alessi and Natalia without him.

“Ah,” Alessi says, giving Daniel a big smile and taking a minute to wrap his arms around his nephew and kiss him on eithercheek. Daniel goes a bit pale when Alessi holds him tight, pressing his eyes closed, and I laugh a little to myself knowing thatDaniel's hangover this morning was...fierce.

It had taken everything Janeen, Jerome, and I could do to haul him out of bed and get him dressed, but eventually Daniel welledup the strength to do it because he knew he had to. It’s a big day, after all.

Daniel gives Alessi a pained smile and then his eyes replace me.

I raise my eyebrows to him in a silent question and he gives me the tiniest of nods, letting me know it’s done. I lay my head backagainst the padded seat behind me, relieved.

Good. At least this one thing went right.

“My Daniel,” Natalia coos, moving forward to him next, taking his fac in her hands and tsking in disapproval. “What did they do toyou last night — you look terrible, my little groom.”

“I did it to myself, Natalia,” Daniel says, giving her a soft smile. Natalia mumbles something about how she can’t possibly believethat, lifting her fingers to his hair to push it into order, but before she can get very far the doctor comes into the room.

“Ah,” he says, smiling at Daniel. “So, the father has finally arrived.”

“Apologies, Dr. Banks,” Daniel says, tucking away his suffering and reaching out a hand to shake the doctor’s. “I had to visit myfather this morning and the traffic on the way back from the prison was heavier than expected.”

“Sorry to hear that,” the doctor says, his eyebrows going up. Of course, he knows who Daniel’s father is — everyone does. Kent'sarrest has been national news, and our wedding — to my surprise — made the media as well, making the connection betweenKent and Daniel more apparent than it’s ever been.

“Now,” the doctor says, clapping his hands together and smiling between Daniel and I. “I understand that we’re here for apaternity test!”

Daniel comes to my side now, taking my hand and beaming down at me. “It’s not that we have any actual hesitations here,doctor,” Daniel says, looking at me and not at him. “But, this baby has two families who crave...assurances. Still,” he looks upand turns that charming Lippert smile on the doctor again. “We can all rest assured that the results will not be a surprise.”

Natalia and Alessi say nothing as they stand quietly at the side of the room, Alessi beaming as if he has no hesitations at all andNatalia looking like she doesn’t believe a damn word Daniel's saying.

The doctor, picking up on some of Natalia’s tension, clears his throat. “Well,” he says, “motives aside, the procedure is simpleenough. Mr. Lippert,” he says, nodding to Daniel, “we'll take a DNA sample from the inside of your cheek. And Mrs. Lippert,” hesays —

I grin and laugh a little to hear my new name for the first time —“We'll take a blood sample from you.”

“Please, doctor,” Alessi says, steppingforward now, his face curious. “Couldyou please explain tug gous."works are. wa do notunderstand how a sample of Fay’sblood will demonstrate the paternity.Do we not have to wait until the childis born?” Please read the originalcontent at .

“You used to have to wait,” the doctorsays, turning to Alessi. “Buttechnology has improved sothatiweresgen betwee bloodcafries the unborn baby’s DNA.
