As soon as Eugene’s words fell, Terry frowned slightly. He walked a few steps to Eugene’s desk and took a paper napkin from his pocket before spreading it out on the surface.
Everyone was puzzled by his actions. Even Eugene could not understand what Terry was about to do and stared at him with confusion. “What are you trying to do?”
Terry remained silent and took a blood glucose testing needle from another pocket. Taking a deep breath, he puffed out his cheeks as if he was cheering himself up. The next moment, he placed his little finger on the napkin and pricked it with the needle without uttering a word.
Eugene was shocked as he could not believe such a young child would be willing to go to such lengths to prove his point. He was certain that even adults would fail to do so.
The prick from the needle seemed painful as he could hear Terry’s sudden heavy breathing and see the boy’s squinted eyes and shrunk neck. Drops of blood dripped onto the napkin as Terry kept trying to force out more blood.
Eugene suddenly felt a twinge in his heart, perhaps because he also had a son around the same age as the three children. He could not bear to watch on anymore, silently cursing whoever had made these innocent children experience such pain. He could not believe someone would use young kids to cause trouble for him..
It would be so heartbreaking if their parents saw this. Hence, he quickly spoke up, “Stop it. I won’t do the paternity test, even if you provide a blood sample.”
Terry finally stopped as he could not ooze more blood from his finger. He looked up at Eugene. “You don’t have to do it if you don’t want to, but please don’t wrongly accuse us.” As he spoke, he took two needles from his pocket and handed them to Blake and Carter.
The other two children stepped forward and took a napkin before pricking their fingers. To Eugene’s surprise, neither of them even flinched. Although they held their breath and their fingers trembled, they endured the pain without a single cry!
Suddenly, Eugene had a different view of these three children and even admired them. Carter looked at him. “It’s your choice whether to take the paternity test, but we don’t recognize you as our daddy anymore!” With that, the three children took two steps back and exchanged a silent glance with each other before leaving the room neatly. Eugene was honestly stunned!
As he gazed at the three neatly folded paper towels on his desk, he began to doubt his memory. He could only recall having a one- night stand with Olivia, so how could three children be standing before him claiming to be his? Could it be that she was pregnant with quadruplets?
No! That’s impossible. These three children are younger than North. However, he could not recall having any intimate contact with anyone else. If there was not, then the children’s actions scared him. It was clear they were confident of their biological connection to him. Otherwise, why would they go through the trouble of enduring the pain of pricking their fingers and extracting blood samples right in front of him? Even if it was a conspiracy, the children’s actions felt too genuine to be mere acts.
Curtis was also stunned by this terrifying scene. Whose kids are they? I can’t believe they’d go to such lengths to prove it. But wait, it makes perfect sense if they’re President Nolan’s children. Why else would they willingly give blood samples?
He looked at Eugene cautiously. “President Nolan… Are you considering doing a paternity test?” Naturally, Eugene had yet to decide, for he had never expected to be pushed to this point one day, especially by three five to six-year-old children.
