He unfolded the paternity test result and walked toward Rouge Jarvis.

Then, he handed it to her: "I’ve been searching for my sister for so many years. I know how important this matter is, and I absolutely cannot allow any impersonation to occur, so I asked Dr. Winslow to help me personally."

Dr. Winslow, Wallace Winslow.

He is Rouge Jarvis’s confidant and also her attending physician. He is honest and would never falsify medical knowledge.

Therefore, this paternity test result is a hundred percent proof of Tiana Thorne’s identity; she is indeed the Ford family’s eldest daughter, the biological daughter of Rouge Jarvis and Graham Ford.

Meredith Ford was completely stunned; her status was about to be taken away...

No way!

She has lived with her mother and brother for twenty years, while Tiana Thorne is merely a third party with just a blood relation.

Mom won’t love her more just because of blood ties.

Absolutely not!

Rouge Jarvis opened the medical report in her hands, and as she read the contents, her vision immediately blurred, unable to make out a single word.

Tears fell from her eyes onto the paper, and she hurriedly wiped them away, breathing heavily.

Tiana Thorne sensed her emotions were too agitated and held her hand.

As their hands clasped, Rouge Jarvis looked at her.

"I know this might be hard for you to accept right now, and I’m sorry for bringing this up without any preparation from you. I just... don’t want my biological mother to misunderstand me."

Even though her eyes were moist with tears, she lightly lifted the corners of her lips; the dimples that once seemed playful now appeared gentle as the wind.

"All along, my brother and I have only had a deep sibling bond, and the one I’ve truly dated is my fourth brother, Aiden Shaw."

Aiden Shaw’s deep hazel eyes held a scintillating glow, and his gaze was as deep as a lake, revealing undisguised affection.

Meredith Ford collapsed onto the floor, that sentence stabbing her heart like a knife, making her breath quicken, fists clenched, eyes filled with hatred.

No wonder her usually aloof brother was so affectionate towards Tiana Thorne, and her captivatingly enigmatic second brother cherished her in the palm of his hand—because Tiana Thorne was their biological sister all along.

How could this be...

This was supposed to be her honor...

Why did Tiana Thorne steal it from her?

She questioned, "Did you all know about each other from the start?"

When Tiana Thorne turned to look at her, the warmth in her eyes disappeared as she raised her lips: "We acknowledged each other even before Azurea. Meredith Ford, you never doubted my real identity because you were certain Celia Ford was already dead, right?"

Meredith Ford bit her lip without nodding again, for indeed, what she said was true, so she never suspected.

If she had known earlier that Tiana Thorne was Celia Ford, she would have used other means to prevent her from reuniting with their mother.

But now, it’s too late for anything.

At this moment, Rouge Jarvis’s eyes saw no one but Tiana Thorne. Her mind swirled with all the ways she had tried to prevent her sons from uncovering the truth over the years.

In reality, her Poppy hadn’t died and had always been in the world, waiting to reunite with her.

She had forcibly driven her daughter away for twenty years.

No wonder she never called her "Aunt," always referring to her as "Ms. Jarvis," for she was her mother.

Tiana Thorne forged close ties with her sons in such a short time because she was Poppy, their sister.

All of this was her doing.

Tiana Thorne felt her mood was off, grasped her hand tightly, and called out to her, "Mom, look at me."
