Chapter 696 Error in DNA Test
I was spring, and the weather was good. Josie was bored of staying home and decided to head to the studio.
Most of the employees had returned to work. They did not expect to be inspected by the higher-ups so soon after starting work, so the whole office had low morale,
Angel was complaining to Alice when Josie arrived. “Alice, our job is only to draw designs. We know nothing about Carter Group’s shoddy construction. How can they investigate us?”
Jade was photocopying documents nearby and joined their conversation. “That’s right. We discovered it first and tried to stop it. Ms. Jo nearly got dragged into it. How would we know they carried out work at midnight?”
As Josie heard the news about Carter Group, Josie could not help but think that Dexter would never let Arnold off casily.
Rumors were rampant when the office reopened after the New Year holiday.
“Since we didn’t do anything wrong, the investigator won’t be able to find anything.” Alice comforted her colleagues and looked up to find Josie entering the office. She hurried ahead.
She immediately pulled Josie to the side. “I heard rumors that you colluded with Arnold and manipulated the situation. That’s not true, right?”
Josie sighed and headed to her office. Coincidentally, Laura was already there. “Tve worked with you for many years. Do you think I’m that kind of person?”
Alice pouted. “I suppose not.”
“What about the matter between you and Arnold? Is it real?” Laura poured herself a cup of coffee and asked calmly before turning to Josie.
Josie hit Laura with her handbag. “How could you do such a thing? Are you trying to cause me trouble?”
Laura laughed despite herself. She sat on the couch and crossed her legs. “Anyway, I heard you and Arnold went to the hospital on New Year’s Eve. Furthermore, based on my information, Dexter only learned about the incident a few days later. That means you didn’t tell him.”
“It’s amazing how rumors spread. All it took was a few days for the world to know about it.” Josie poured a cup of coffee for herself.
She sipped before continuing. “Why didn’t you tell me that Liana has been found?”
Josie noticed a flicker of guilt in Laura’s eyes.
Laura met her gaze and stared for a few seconds before bursting into laughter. “You’ve met Arnold. Didn’t he also hide it from you?”
Her mentioning of the matter angered Josie. “He told me about it but didn’t reveal that Heather was
Lana
Laura laughed even louder upon hearing her and slapped her thigh. She nearly ran out of breath from Laughing. Tve been waiting to see your reaction. How do you feel? It’s unexpected, right? Your expression is as I imagined”

Dont blame me Claudia went to Rivodia and claimed she had found Liana upon her return. How couli) we be sine that it was real” Laura explained. “Although Mark was happy about the discovery, he mmediately arranged a DNA Test on New Year’s Eve. Everyone gathe

“The result turned out to be real, to everyone’s astonishment. By then, it was morning, and Dexter had also left. I thought he would surely tell you.” Laura had a playful expression. “But I guess I was wrong”
Josie picked up another cushion and threw it at her.
“I had an excellent show that night. Thinking about Zach’s expression still makes me want to laugh?”
Zach could never win against Summer. Now, he had another rival, Liana, whom the family beloved. It would further threaten his already dismal position. Moreover, Mark would likely never give him any position of authority again.
Josie laughed with Laura, but her expression soon turned solemn. “Could something have gone wrong with the DNA test?”
She found the matter too coincidental to be accurate, no matter how she thought. Of all the people in the world, she could not believe that Heather was Liana.
