Chapter 639 Tangible Evidence
[ At Hiroshi Villa… ]
After concluding their lively conversation regarding the forthcoming engagement party and the warm welcome they planned to extend to Abigail, the Hiroshi, and Yan Family found themselves pleasantly surprised by unanticipated guests. Nathan and Ethan showed up at the entrance gate of the mansion.
The head guard promptly relayed the news to Mr. Hiroshi about the unexpected arrival of the Sparks. A heavy tension gripped the atmosphere within the living room as they found themselves at a loss for words, uncertain about how to confront Nathan.
Madam Priyanshi and Old Master Yan exchanged glances, their expressions a mix of sympathy and understanding. Their silence spoke volumes, silently acknowledging the profound bond Nathan had with Abigail. They both empathized with him, aware of just how deeply he had cared for and supported Abigail for almost two months.
Nathan had given so much of himself for Abigail\'s sake. But Abigail chose Dave over him. They couldn\'t do anything about that. It was Abigail\'s decision and they respected her choice.
\'What is he doing here?\' Jane lamented to herself inwardly. His sudden arrival had cast a hint of awkwardness, replacing the previously cheerful atmosphere.
"Have you talked to him?" Old Master Yan softly asked Abigail.
Grasping Dave\'s hand, Abigail could only shake her head. She didn\'t feel the need to explain or inform Nathan about her engagement. She already ended things with him a long time ago.
"Don\'t worry, Grandpa. I\'ll talk to him," Jane volunteered.
It did not take long when Nathan and Ethan appeared at the entrance door. As if propelled by an invisible burst of enthusiasm, Ethan dashed toward Old Master Yan, addressing him with a youthful voice.
"Great-grandpa!" Ethan exclaimed with infectious glee, his small frame practically launching itself into the old man\'s legs, giving him a heartfelt hug.
Ethan\'s presence had an immediate effect on the atmosphere, infusing it with a newfound liveliness. His boundless energy acted as a soothing balm, putting everyone at ease, and momentarily dispelling the unease that had settled in the room.
However, as the room bathed in the warmth of Ethan\'s welcome, Old Master Yan couldn\'t help but release a deep sigh. Beneath his affection for the spirited boy, he carried a sense of sorrow, for he recognized that it was such a waste because Ethan would never become part of the Yan Family anymore since Abigail chose Dave, not Nathan. The old man was very fond of him. Not only him, Mr. Hiroshi and Madam Priyanshi felt the same way.
Meanwhile, Nathan locked eyes with Dave, and without the need for words, they shared a nod of acknowledgment. In contrast, Abigail found herself unable to meet Nathan\'s gaze directly. She longed to escape his penetrating stare, opting instead to seek refuge behind Dave\'s reassuring presence.
As Nathan\'s gaze shifted downward, he couldn\'t help but notice the intertwined hands of Abigail and Dave.However, what was truly surprising was Nathan\'s lack of any trace of jealousy at that moment. He found himself taken aback by this unexpected response, questioning his own emotions in the quiet recesses of his mind.
\'What\'s happening to me?\' Nathan wondered silently. \'This doesn\'t make sense. Have I already moved on?\'
Nathan\'s subconscious instincts guided his gaze, causing him to sweep his eyes across the room in search of someone. His heart seemed to have its own agenda as it skipped a beat in the very instant his gaze locked onto Jane\'s mesmerizing emerald eyes.
In that fleeting moment, everything seemed to fall into place within him. \'Here she is,\' he thought, his inner voice resolute and filled with a sense of certainty.
On the other hand, Jane cocked her eyebrow upon seeing Nathan\'s enigmatic smirk. \'Why is he looking at me like that?\'
Mr. Hiroshi, ever the astute observer, also noted Nathan\'s smile directed at Jane. The thought crossed his mind, \'Hmm, Nathan doesn\'t look brokenhearted at all. Or maybe he is just putting on a brave front to protect his ego.\'
"Apology for our sudden intrusion. I hope we haven\'t disrupted any important discussions," Nathan finally spoke up. He could sense that the Yan family and Hiroshi family were discussing Dave and Abigail\'s wedding.
Madam Priyanshi smiled at Nathan and shook her head. "No need for apologies," she reassured him. "Our discussion has concluded for the moment. What brings you here today?" Her words were polite, yet they held an undertone of curiosity.
"I came to see Jane," Nathan declared, his announcement hanging in the air like an unexpected gust of wind, leaving everyone momentarily speechless.
In the middle of Nathan\'s revelation, Old Master Yan and Mr. Hiroshi exchanged meaningful glances, both their eyes carried unspoken shared thoughts.
Then, in a secretive manner, Old Master Yan leaned closer to Madam Priyanshi, his voice a hushed whisper. "Why didn\'t I think of this earlier?" he mused quietly, a spark of enthusiasm lighting up his eyes.
"Jane and Nathan, they seem like a perfect match. Perhaps it\'s time to consider a different path for Nathan since he can no longer be with Abigail." The notion of matchmaking danced in the old man\'s mind, a fresh idea that carried with it the promise of new beginnings.
Madam Priyanshi bobbed her head in agreement as she darted her gaze back and forth between Nathan and Jane. Old Master Yan had a point.
"May I have a moment with Jane?" Nathan\'s voice broke the silence once more.
Even Dave and Abigail were taken aback, as Nathan seemed unfazed by their presence.
"Of course, go ahead and talk to her," Mr. Hiroshi responded with a warm smile, giving Jane a gentle push toward Nathan.
Jane found herself following Nathan as they strolled into the garden. Hanabi and Cherry had yet to arrive, leaving her puzzled about Nathan\'s sudden appearance at the Hiroshi Villa. After all, she was supposed to meet him at the Sparks Mansion once she got ahold of the DNA test result.
\'Can\'t he wait for me to initiate contact? Why did he feel the need to come here in person?\' Her internal thoughts were tinged with a hint of frustration, as Nathan\'s unexpected visit left her wondering about his motivations and the urgency that had driven him to seek her out at the Hiroshi Villa.
"Now, tell me the reason why you asked me for Veronica\'s DNA sample?" Nathan calmly confronted Jane, his true motive hidden beneath a veil of concern. Deep down, all he yearned for was to catch a glimpse of her, to ascertain her well-being. He came here for the sole purpose of persuading her to come with him abroad for her treatment.
Jane lifted her hand, gesturing for Nathan to wait, while her fingers quickly danced across the buttons of her phone, dialing Cherry\'s number. As she brought the device to her ear, her gaze remained locked on Nathan, her brows furrowing with anticipation.
"Where are you, Cherry? Have you managed to secure the results?" Jane inquired, her voice edged with a mixture of hope and impatience.
"Sis!" Cherry\'s voice crackled through the phone\'s speaker, excitement evident in her tone. "We\'ve just pulled up at Hiroshi Villa. I\'ve got the DNA results in my possession. Where can I find you?" Jane could hear in the background the sound of a car engine.
Jane\'s eyes darted briefly to the serene garden surrounding her. "I\'m in the garden," she replied, her voice softening as she imagined Cherry\'s imminent arrival.
Cherry\'s arrival was swift, as if she had sensed the urgency in Jane\'s call. She entered the garden, clutching a crucial piece of documentation tightly in her hand. Upon spotting Nathan by Jane\'s side, her expression flickered with surprise, though she quickly masked it with a warm smile.
Cherry approached Jane and extended the document towards her. "Here it is, Sis," she said, her voice carrying the weight of the important information contained within. "I also have another document from Doc Stephen, which I\'ll be giving to Abigail shortly."
Jane didn\'t pay more attention to the second document mentioned by Cherry. Upon receiving the first document, Jane expressed her gratitude. Meanwhile, sensing that her presence was no longer required, Cherry bid them farewell and made her way back to the mansion to deliver the second document to Abigail.
Nathan\'s curiosity piqued as he cast an inquisitive glance toward the document in Jane\'s possession. He couldn\'t help but inquire, "What is that?" His eyes remained fixed on the intriguing piece of paper, eager to unravel its contents.
In response to his query, Jane wore a knowing smile, one that hinted at a deeper significance. She extended the document towards him, inviting him to take it. "See it for yourself," she replied, her voice carrying a hint of anticipation.
As Nathan accepted the document and began to reveal its contents, a sense of anticipation hung in the air. Whatever lay within those pages seemed to hold a secret, a revelation, or perhaps a momentous decision that would shape their path forward. Jane watched his expression closely, waiting for his reaction, aware that this document had the potential to change the course of their plans and decisions.
Nathan frowned when he read the DNA test confirmed a positive match for two individuals as biological siblings, it resulted in a percentage match of 50%. He was about to ask her further but Jane spoke up to explain the document in his hands.
"I\'ve already informed you that Monica is alive. I needed Veronica\'s DNA to confirm Monica\'s true identity, as she is currently assuming another person\'s identity. Nathan, now you have tangible evidence right before you. Helena is, in fact, Monica."
