Reclaiming Her Heart
Chapter 785 Such Weakness, Embarrassment

Selena was a kickass boss and a solid friend.

Ann handed her the thing with two strands of hair.

Selena took it and headed straight to the hospital to give it to Victor.

She greeted him, hoping to get the results ASAP.

Victor rubbed his temples. "Alright, I'll get my colleague on it right now."

Victor had been doing surgeries at the hospital for a while. Because of him, a ton of patients picked this hospital and specifically asked for him, so he was running on fumes. But he knew about the recent gossip.

He looked at Selena, wanting to say something but then just shut his mouth.

Thanks to Victor, the results came out two hours later.

Seeing the words on the report, Ann felt like she got hit by a truck.

The test confirmed a parent-child relationship.

Brody really had a kid, and he had him seven years ago.

But how old was he seven years ago? Just eighteen!

Selena didn't even need to look at the report; she could tell the result just by looking at Ann's face.

The paternity report slipped from Ann's fingers, and her legs went weak, almost making her collapse.

"Ann!" Selena quickly helped her up, and Victor also gave her a hand.

Ann's mind was a total blank, completely unable to think straight.

They got her into a hospital room, fed her something sweet, and colorful things swayed before her eyes.

The doctor explained nearby, "It's just a mix of emotional shock and a bit of low blood sugar. She needs to rest well." Selena stood by the bedside, looking at Ann with some serious heartache.

She had poured seven years into a relationship, only to replace out it was all lies from the start.

No one could handle that kind of blow, especially when it was someone she planned to spend her life with.

"Ann, what are you gonna do?"

Ann sat on the hospital bed, and when she heard this, she forced a smile. "Ms. Fair, thanks for being with me today. Honestly, before seeing the results, I had a hunch because I trust you, and you've always been sharp. I used to think Brody didn't let his brother bug me because he really cared about me. Never thought it would be his kid."

Even his whole family was in on it from the start.

Her voice was shaky, but no tears came out, just dryly staying in her eyes.

Selena stayed calm, holding her hand. "Get your head straight. Now think, what are you gonna do?"

"I really can't bear to leave him," Ann said.

Such weakness, such a mess. But who could let go after seven years?

Women are emotional creatures. She used to get frustrated seeing other women get played in love.

But now that she was in the same boat, she made the same choice, unable to let go.

Selena asked, "Even if he has a kid, even if he betrayed you? He spent the whole night at Jessica's villa last night. You know what they did."

This sentence instantly made Ann's shoulders slump, leaving her speechless.

If it were just a kid, she even thought she could forgive him. As long as she worked hard to earn money, raising a kid wouldn't be tough.

But Brody didn't love her, didn't like her, and that was a dealbreaker.

"I'll call off the engagement, break up, and move out," Ann said. She lowered her head, unable to resist leaning back against the cold wall. "Ms. Fair, thank you. Please leave me alone for a while." Selena nodded and left without hesitation.

As she closed the door, she heard heart-wrenching cries from inside.

Selena felt a bit sad too. Women are more likely to feel for such situations.

But only by getting through it could one replace a new beginning.

She went back to the office, took a moment to pull herself together, and immediately started prepping the contract with Ronald.

But her phone rang at that moment; it was a call from John.

As soon as she hit the answer button, Raymond's voice came through, "Take me off the blacklist, Selena. I made you eight million bucks last night, after all."
