Chapter 269 Kingston lifted his cold eyes and glanced at Richard .

念 72 % Mr.

Schultz , if there are any results , we will contact you immediately .

If you havent been notified , it means theres no match yet .

Kingston was familiar with Richard and responded politely .

Richard nodded .

There was a hint of disappointment on his refined face , but he still maintained a gentle smile .

I understand .

I just happened to be here , so I thought Id ask .

His casual tone was merely a cover for the dejection in his heart .

Kingston said , I understand your eagerness as a father , Mr.

Schultz .

Rest assured , we will inform you as soon as theres any news .

Alright , I wont trouble you further , Dr.

Mason .

Richard forced a composed smile .

Its no trouble at all , Kingston replied with a slight nod before parting ways with Richard .

As he was about to head to his office , he caught sight of Joycelyn and Ellison leaving .

Changing his course , he walked toward them .

You know Richard ? Ellison asked .

Kingston replied , Yes , hes involved in many charitable endeavors in the country and has sponsored several clinical research projects in the medical field .

He seems like a good person , Joycelyn remarked , her gaze lingering on Richards lonely figure as he walked away .

After learning about her origins and having seen Sandras struggles to find her family , Joycelyn understood the pain experienced by both missing children and their parents .

She felt inexplicably sad .

The results should be ready in about two hours .

Lets head back for now .

Your Grant family members are coming soon , Kingston informed them in a calm voice .

He added , Your younger sister is hospitalized here , and since last night , the media has been swarming the place , turning it into quite the spectacle .

Just as Kingston finished speaking , a sleek black luxury car pulled up at the hospitals main entrance .

For an elite private hospital catering to the upper class , high end vehicles were nothing unusual .

However , stepping out of the car were Sibyl and her so called younger sister , who was actually her daughter , Tanya .

Ellison , we couldnt reach you yesterday , and now you just show up at the hospital , Sibyl said with irritation .

But despite her anger , she didnt dare vent it directly at Ellison .

Ellisons gaze remained as unreadable as ever .

It was like the surface of a still sea , calm and clear yet concealing unfathomable depths .

If I had come yesterday , I wouldnt have witnessed todays spectacle , he replied indifferently .

His vague response was even more infuriating than outright ignoring her .

Sibyl choked back her words , fuming silently before storming toward the inpatient department .

Lets go .

Call me when you have the results .

Though Kingston found it odd , he chose not to press the matter further .

Ellison hadnt told anyone about his and Joycelyns visit to the hospital for the blood sample regardin Little did he know that Leah had arrived shortly after them .

Even though she was married , she still couldnt let go of Ellison She had secretly watched the blood drawing process from outside and had seen her brother take the samples into the lab .

Without thinking twice , she secretly swapped the newly collected blood sample with her owIL After all , she was the only one who knew her special background .

Her DNA would never be matched with any biological relatives .

In the hospital ward , Bellina only had a minor wound on her forehead and a few bruises on her body from Lyras pinches .

She didnt dare tell the truth and simply said she got hurt in a car accident .

Jerome , did Dad go to check for results again ? Bellina asked sweetly as she nibbled on the apple her brother had cut into small pieces for her .

Jerome nodded .

Probably .

Bellina said , I hope theres good news .

If I had an older sister , Id be the happiest child in the world ! I really want a big sister .

Dad and my brothers are all so good looking .

My sister must be beautiful too ! Bellina made sure her words were loud enough for Richard to hear as he walked into the room .

Richard felt warmth in his heart upon hearing his daughters thoughtful words .

But its been so many years , and we still havent found her .

Medical technology is so advanced now , and databases are connected worldwide … Do you think shes still alive ? Bellinas voice suddenly carried a hint of sadness .

Maybe shes healthy and never needed medical treatment , so there are no records of her .

Or perhaps shes living somewhere remote .

As long as we dont give up , well find her one day , Jerome reassured her , handing her another piece of apple .

Bellina hummed in agreement , enjoying the princess like treatment she received .

Chapter 269 She wasnt worried at all that the real daughter of the Schultz family would take her place .

Because she would never be found .

13 11 Bellina thought smugly as she watched Richard walk in .

She quickly put down the fruit and eagerly asked , Dad , is there any news about my sister ? Richard simply shook his head .

Its okay ! Well definitely find her one day ! Bellina immediately shifted back into her obedient , well behaved persona in front of her father .

Dad , weve been back for days now .

Timothy says the company is really busy .

You and Jerome should go back first .

Ill stay here and wait for my sisters leads .

Bellina coaxed her father gently .

Richard asked , Youre not coming back with us ? No , I want to stay here a little longer .

And besides , I need to help Jerome evaluate his future wife , Bellina said with a bright , innocent smile .

My future wife ? Jeromes expression darkened .

Who ? Bellina exclaimed , Tanya ! I think shes great .

Plus , Im planning to start my own business , and I want to partner with her .

At the same time , she planned to steal Ellison for herself .

The more Bellina thought about him , the more she liked him .

Anything she liked , she had to make hers .

She had turned herself from an orphan into the Schultz familys beloved princess .

Now , she believed she could also marry into the Grant family .

Belle , are you staying because of Ellison ? Richards once warm tone turned stern .

Bellinas eyes flickered as she stuffed a piece of apple into her mouth .

No , I just want to build my own career .

And I also want to look for my sister , since she went missing here in this country .

Alright then .

But you must stay away from Ellison .

That mans level of cunning and influence is beyond ordinary .

Hes dangerous , Richard warned gravely .

Bellina , however , wasnt concerned in the slightest .

She thought if someone as poor and ordinary as Joycelyn could win over Ellison , she could as well .

Dad , I understand , Bellina responded obediently , though inwardly , she scoffed .
