Chapter 570: Chapter 569
Vera imdiately shouted: “Are you insane?! How can you say such a thing?! Lewis Horton, you will stop at nothing just to prevent from marrying into the Martin family!”
Lewis Horton firmly looked at her: “Miss South, the more you react this way, the more it shows your guilt. You should have already known Keera’s background, right? So you knew, the daughter of old Mr. Martin is her mother, isn’t it?”
Vera roared angrily: “No, I don’t know her mother at all!”
Lewis Horton: “Then why did you destroy the photo and not show it to us?”
Vera coldly said: “I just wanted to prevent you from finding another excuse to get involved with the Martin family!”
But Lewis Horton narrowed his eyes: “Old Mr. Martin has made it clear, even if we know the whereabouts of his daughter, he will not make a decision based on it, so your reason is not valid. Right, old Mr. Martin?”
All eyes imdiately fell on old Mr. Martin.
Vera, looking frantic: “Old Mr. Martin, don’t be fooled by him! He is just making excuses! From the beginning, you’ve been leading the conversation! This isn’t what I think at all!”
However, old Mr. Martin stared at Keera Olsen for a long ti, walked up to her, and sized her up.
So similar, too similar.
Not the appearance, but that deanor, just like his first love from years ago.
They are both so haughty, superior, their deanor like the traditional Crera’s bamboo, seemingly impossible for anything to overshadow!
No wonder he felt Keera was so familiar the first mont he saw her, so this is why!
Old Mr. Martin suddenly grabbed her hand: “Are you my granddaughter?”
Keera Olsen’s eyes flickered.
She glanced at Lewis Horton.
In the mont when they looked at each other just now, she understood what Lewis Horton ant. He usually doesn’t talk much, but he said so much just now, just to instigate disputes between Vera and old Mr. Martin.
To make Vera say more unpleasant things, to make Vera even more overbearing, and to show complete disrespect to old Mr. Martin.
Although old Mr. Martin seed very submissive to Vera on the surface, no matter what, even if Vera was their leader, such commanding tones would make anyone uncomfortable inside.
The Martin family and the South Family are about to engage in a marriage alliance, the reason behind it Keera wasn’t clear.
But if it wasn’t for being driven into a corner, the Martin family would not have made this choice, otherwise why didn’t the Martin family of the previous generation or the generation before that engage in a marriage alliance?
Thus, although old Mr. Martin appeared spineless, internally he was actually reluctant.
In such a situation, as long as he had a reasonable excuse, it would make him hesitate!
Like now…
That statent from Lewis Horton was simply nonsense, she had seen that photo, the mother and daughter standing there straight, how could you discern any deanor?
Photographs are naturally posed, you couldn’t really see anything at all!
Thus, what Vera said was actually true, she purposefully obscured the faces just to not give herself away, but she didn’t expect Lewis Horton to exploit this loophole.
That man really is… a master manipulator.
Keera Olsen withdrew her gaze and looked at old Mr. Martin: “I’m not sure, but looking at the photo, that daughter does look a bit like my mom.”
Lewis Horton imdiately spoke: “Keera, do you have your mom’s photo?”
Keera Olsen almost rolled her eyes!
Even if I did, I couldn’t show them!
Wouldn’t it be clear it wasn’t her if I showed them?!
Lewis’s words were not to sabotage, but to make it more believable…
Keera Olsen cooperatively spoke: “I grew up in Clance, and only secretly t my mom once, unfortunately, I don’t have her photo. As for her family’s side…”
Keera Olsen sighed: “There should be photos, right? Should I go and look for them?”
Old Mr. Martin imdiately nodded: “Good, go and look for them, let see!”
His eyes were already turning red as he grasped Keera Olsen’s hand: “But even if you don’t find them, it’s okay, you are my granddaughter! You and she, are just too similar!”
Hearing this, Keera Olsen felt even more that she wasn’t.
Because she resembles her grandmother, and it is different from her maternal grandmother…
This was already confird during her ti with the Olsen family.
She awkwardly smiled, and once again glared at Lewis Horton.
This guy’s thod of delaying ti is really not very clever… after all…
Vera was already frantic: “Old Mr. Martin, you’ve been deceived by them! She’s not your granddaughter! If you don’t believe it, why not do a DNA test?!”
As soon as this was said, Scott Martin imdiately spoke up: “Right, the photo is gone, but DNA can definitely confirm!”
Erin South Martin also chid in, hurt by her grandfather’s behavior, she had been silent all along, now she couldn’t help but shout: “Yeah, a DNA test can prove it! And make Vera give up!”
Vera, furiously looking at Erin South Martin: “You…!”
Erin South Martin stuck out her tongue, and then seated herself next to Charles Olsen.
Vera took a deep breath, and then angrily said: “Old Mr. Martin, it seems without the DNA results, you will not let us continue with the engagent. Let’s not wait, let’s do it now!”
Old Mr. Martin, hearing everyone’s words, imdiately nodded: “Right, let’s go do the DNA now!”
As soon as these words ca out, Keera Olsen imdiately furrowed her brows.
If they did the DNA, wouldn’t it give the ga away?!
As she was hesitating, Vera spoke again: “What’s the matter? Keera Olsen, are you scared? Don’t dare to do it?”
As soon as these words ca out, old Mr. Martin looked at her doubtfully.
Keera Olsen knew she couldn’t let old Mr. Martin start doubting, or else the engagent feast would continue. No matter what, she had to stall.
She imdiately spoke with conviction: “Scared of what? I am certain old Mr. Martin’s daughter is my mom, it’s just a DNA test after all! Let’s do it!”
Scott Martin imdiately ran to her side: “Let’s go, in no more than two hours, we’ll have the DNA results!”
