Chapter 119

All eyes were fixed on Isabella's face.

Isabella remained silent.

Margaret and Steven exchanged glances and said, "But the age doesn't seem to match, does it?"

Zaire asked, "Isabella, where are you from?"

"Palovia."

"The location doesn't match either." Zaire looked at his parents, thought for a moment, and asked Isabella, "Did you ever visit Alvia when you were a child?"

Isabella shook her head.

Isabella also realized that the Jose family might think she was Lisa.

She explained, "I have been dependent on my sister since childhood. So Mrs. Jose and I probably just have a natural affinity."

Margaret asked, "Do you have only one sister? No parents?"

Isabella shook her head. "My sister said my father died and my mother left. When she abandoned us, my sister was only seven, and I was still an infant."

"Such a poor child!" Margaret sighed, feeling deeply sorry for Isabella's story. "You must have suffered a lot, haven't you?"

"It's all in the past. Everything is fine now."

Margaret nodded.

Kelsey, who had been listening all along, finally reacted. "Mom, Dad, Zaire, are you suspecting that Isabella is my long-lost sister?"

Zaire rubbed his forehead and said, "Kelsey, you really have a slow reflex."

The topic was almost over, and Kelsey just realized it.

Kelsey looked at Isabella, then at the others, and said, "It's strange, though. When I first saw Isabella, I felt she was special. When I saw her being bullied, I couldn't help but step in to help. Now Mom also says she feels a connection with Isabella, and Isabella says the same. What if she is really my sister.?"

"But the age and the place where your sister went missing don't match," Margaret said, looking at Isabella with regret.

She really liked Isabella.

After all these years, she wondered what would Lisa become...

"My sister was very young when she went missing. Age can be fabricated. Maybe she was taken to a different city after being found." Kelsey said excitedly, abandoning her breakfast and pulling Isabella up to her feet, "I think we should try. What if Isabella really is my sister? We can't miss this chance."

Margaret's eyes sparkled. "You mean?"

"Do a paternity test!" Kelsey said, then directly asked Isabella, "Isabella, would you be willing to do it?"

Isabella found it hard to believe. "I don't think it's possible."

After all, she had her sister Nina. If she had been adopted, Nina would have told her.

She had never heard Nina mention it.

"Whether it's true or not, a blood test will make it clear. The report won't lie, and it will put everyone's mind at ease."

Seeing the eager eyes of the Jose family, Isabella thought that a blood test wasn't a big deal and finally nodded.

After breakfast, a doctor came to draw blood.

But the test would take at least three days.

Isabella bid farewell to the Jose family, and Margaret and Kelsey saw her to the door.

Kelsey's eyes were bright. "Isabella, you should be prepared. If you really are my sister, I'll be bothering you a lot in the future."

Isabella smiled and said, "I don't think it's possible."

Margaret held her hand and said, "Whether you are or not, you're always welcome to visit."

"Thank you, Mrs. Jose."

The sound of a car engine came from behind.

Sebastian drove up behind Isabella. "I'm heading back to the company. Where are you going? I'll give you a ride."

Isabella wanted to say that they were not on the same path, but Kelsey gave her a push on the waist. "Then we'll leave her to you."

With that, Kelsey pulled Margaret back into the house.

Sebastian got out of the car, walked around the front, and came to Isabella, personally opening the car door for her. "It's hard to get a cab here. If you don't want trouble others, you'd better get in."

Isabella thought for a moment and agreed, "Then I'll trouble you, Mr. Landon."

Once in the car, as soon as the engine started, Sebastian asked her, "To Harvar University?"

Isabella hesitated and said, "To the Landon family."

Sebastian's face darkened instantly, and Isabella felt the air in the car grow thin.

Though Sebastian looked displeased, he still drove her to the Landon family.

The car didn't enter the Landon family estate. Isabella got out outside, politely thanked Sebastian, and then walked into the estate.

Sebastian sat in the car, watching her back for a long time. He then took out his phone and called Jack.

"How's the investigation going?"

Jack was silent for a moment and then said, "Sorry, Mr. Landon, give me a bit more time."

"What's wrong with you?" Sebastian frowned and said, "This isn't like you."

The reason Jack had become his special assistant was his efficiency. Tasks Sebastian assigned were usually quickly handled by Jack, which could be concluded those words: high efficiency, high speed.

A female voice came from the other end of the line. "Jack!"

Jack hurriedly said, "Mr. Landon, I'll handle it soon."

Sebastian said calmly, "No need, take care of your matters first. I'll have someone else investigate."

"Yes, Mr. Landon."

After hanging up the phone, Jack quickly walked into the kitchen. "What's wrong?"

Nancy, holding a spatula, looked at the broken bowl on the floor with a face full of fear. "I'm sorry, Jack. I wanted to make you a bowl of macaroni and cheese."

"It's okay." Jack took the spatula from her and comforted, "You go out first and I'll handle this."

Nancy nodded and walked out.

When Jack finished cleaning up and came out, she was already sitting on the sofa watching TV.

Jack took the trash bag to the door, and Nancy followed, hugging him from behind. "Jack, where are we going to play today?"

Jack was taken aback and said, "I have to go to work today."

Nancy hugged him tightly. "But you promised to take me to the amusement park. I've never been there before."

"I'm usually busy with work." Jack comforted, "How about I take you there on the weekend when I'm free?"

"No!" Nancy was upset, her eyes filled with tears. "You promised me!"

"But I really have to work."

Nancy bit her lip. "So you're just going to leave me here alone? Can I go to the office with you? I promise I won't disturb you. I'll just watch from afar."

"That's not possible."

"Why not!" Nancy's eyes were teary. "Are you embarrassed to have me there?"

"That's not what I mean."

"Then I'll go change!" Nancy didn't give Jack a chance to refuse and went to change her clothes.

Jack had no choice but to take Nancy along.

At the Landon Group, Jack left Nancy in the lobby's resting area, found some magazines for her, and gave her a tablet. "Nancy, you can read or play on the tablet here. I'll take you to eat something nice when I get off at noon."

Nancy blinked and looked around the lobby, saying, "It's so beautiful here. Jack, Is this where you work? It's so big and luxurious."
