Chapter 89 Hospital
The hospital was extremely crowded during the weekend in which the majority of the visitors had shown up for their health screening.
Meanwhile, Hayden became clingy toward Colton and insisted for Colton to carry him after alighting from the car.
In fact, Colton did not detest children, especially those who looked adorable.
Nicole was resigned to see her son clinging onto Colton. So, she silently shot a glare at Hayden and mouthed a warning, ‘Don’t cross the line!’
However, Hayden immediately turned away and acted as if he did not notice her warning. He instead encircled Colton’s neck with his short, chubby arms before burying his head against Colton’s shoulder, which left Nicole speechless.
The five of them entered the hospital and went straight to the department where DNA paternity tests were being carried out. It was because of Colton that even the hospital director came to the department.
“Hi, President Gardner, what brings you here today?” the director asked in a sycophantic manner. Colton had his personal doctor, so he had never visited the hospital. Hence, the director wondered what was behind the matter that caused this big shot to show up in the hospital today.
Before this when the hospital was purchasing medical equipment, Colton had lent them a helping hand. As such, the director naturally treated him with all the courtesy due to his favor.
Standing straight while carrying Hayden, Colton replied nonchalantly, “I’m here for a DNA paternity test.”
The smile on the director’s face stiffened as he glanced at the kid in Colton’s arms. At the same time, Hayden politely turned to let the director see his face.
Now that both their faces were observed side by side, anyone could tell with naked eyes that they were father and son. Owned by NôvelDrama.Org.
Although the director had not heard that Colton had a son, he still wore a fawning smile and curry favor with Colton. “Your son bears a close resemblance to you. I’m sure he’s your biological son.”
Queenie’s face turned ashen when she heard the director’s comment. She quickly walked over and interrupted, “Please don’t make a wild guess. Colton never had a child. This kid is his!”
The director followed Queenie’s gesture to see Joseph. Looking at the sulky woman in front of him, he remained silent and did not speak up again.
As the few of them walked together, any observant person would be able to tell that Colton was Hayden’s father because the two of them bore similar resemblances.
Hearing the director’s statement, Hayden smiled as bright as a sunflower. Clinging to Colton, he nodded and responded, “You’re right. I think I look exactly like Mr. Handsome too.”
On the other hand, the only thing Joseph wanted to do now was to quickly complete the DNA paternity test as he had no intention of being involved in any unnecessary troubles. As long as it was proved that Hayden was his son, Nicole would surely curry favor with him for the sake of custody. If that happened, Mann Apparel would be able to prosper with Nicole’s help.
“Let’s quickly go for the test and save the rest for later,” Joseph urged as he did not want any more accidents to happen.
Queenie regretted her decision because given the situation now, the test result would definitely show that Joseph was not Hayden’s biological father. After all, Town Central Hospital was not somewhere where she could easily tamper with the report.
Apart from that, she would be completely doomed if Nicole eventually tracked her down by the time the test produced a negative result.
Truth be told, the situation would not be as serious if what was discovered was merely Joseph’s fake report as Queenie could still shift the blame to Joseph. However, she did not dare to imagine the consequences if they found out that Colton was…
At this thought, Queenie broke out in cold sweat and her face paled in nervousness.
“Mr. Handsome, since we’re already here, why don’t we take a test too?” Cuddling Colton, Hayden squeaked in a childish manner.
When Nicole heard that, she became awkward and took a step forward to look at Hayden while responding, “Cut the nonsense!”
However, Colton actually did not mind the suggestion. “Since we’re already here, it’s just a quick procedure and I don’t mind taking the test,” he said nonchalantly.
She recalled her conversation with him last night and figured that it might be easier to switch the specimen by doing so, which was why she did not reject his proposal.
When the doctor finished collecting their specimens in the lab, Colton secretly switched the specimens. Although he still thought it was a rather despicable thing to do, he decided to properly complete the task since he had already promised Nicole.
However, they were unaware that a stealthy figure appeared when they left and switched the specimens that Colton had already swapped.
