Chapter 2926
"Could it be that you aren't a virgin?" Layla asked. "You've been to so many parties where you drink. You can't really hold your liquor, so could one of your female friends have taken advantage of you when you were drunk?"
"Ah! Stop it, Layla! I'm getting chills! We are all decent people so you are overthinking! That's illegal, and none of them would dare to do such a thing!"
"You are too naive, or, to put it simply, you are a little slow. You don't know how evil people can be because our parents have protected you well. It's a complicated world out there, and a university is a miniature planet of its own."
Feeling devastated, Robert said, "I'm begging you to stop, Layla. I will get a paternity test done, all right?"
"Don't be too pessimistic. Our parents are quite happy about it. Even if the baby is yours, our parents will raise him so don't worry," Layla said gently.
Robert felt extremely depressed as he was not worried if his parents would be upset with him; what troubled him was who had taken advantage of him and who the mother was if the baby turned out to be his. These two questions threatened to suffocate him.Belongs to © n0velDrama.Org.
Layla was in a much better mood after the call as the crisis within their family had been resolved.
So long as the baby was not Elliot's, it was a good thing-regardless of whether Hayden or Robert was the father.
"Dad, are you sure that you are not the father?" Layla confirmed once again.
Elliot finally felt like he could breathe. "Why won't you believe me?"
"It's not that I don't want to believe you, but Robert said that he has never touched a woman before. How innocent!" Elliot fell into silence at the realization that Robert could not be the father. He immediately turned to look at Hayden.
"It's even less possible for Hayden to be the father." Avery had not expected Robert to be so innocent. Her head began to throb. Since her sons were all grown up, she would not stop any of them from having girlfriends, but Robert was still extremely naive. "My head is hurting." Layla tapped her head. "Dad, can you check when the DNA test results will be out?"
Elliot took out his phone and saw no notification from the DNA facility "Let's wait for a while! They will notify me as soon as the results are
out."
Hayden had grown uneasy and decided to take a stroll after his meal. "I'm going out."
"Where are you going, Hayden? I'll come along!" When she was a child, Layla had made it a habit to follow her brother around, and this bad not changed in her adulthood.
"Stay home. I'll be back soon." Hayden refused to let her follow him as he intended to head to the hotel where Layla had had her wedding.
Robert would not lie to his family, so
the baby could not be his. Since
Elliot was certain that he was not the father as well, Hayden was the only
one
who could be the father.
