Chapter 45
"Miss Yuliana," greeted Cole as he walked over.
Yuliana looked at Cole disdainfully. "My car broke down, so I'll need you to give me a ride. Drive the car over now."
Cole glanced over at the red Ferrari parked behind Yuliana, keeping his exasperation to himself.
He should have looked at the horoscopes before going out to work today.
His car was only a few steps away from hers. Couldn't she walk herself over?
Despite not being fully satisfied, he had to maintain some tact as a professional personal assistant.
Cole returned a courteous smile and replied, "Okay, Miss Yuliana."
He made his way to the car and drove it over.
"Go ahead," commanded Yuliana the moment she got in the car.
"Yes, Miss Yuliana," said Cole as he started the engine.
Yuliana, who was sitting in the back row, took out her mobile phone and texted Elaine to let her know she was on the way to Fuller Group.
After sending the message, a folder in the corner of her eye caught her attention.
'What could this be?' she wondered.
Yuliana sneaked a glance at Cole. Confirming that he wasn't paying attention to her, she discreetly picked up the folder and opened it.
What she read left her utterly shocked.
This was Shane's paternity test!
What was she to do?
Cole had his full attention on the road. He was none the wiser to what Yuliana was doing in the back row.
The only thing Yuliana could think of was to ask her sister for help.
Immediately, she sent another message to Elaine. She snapped a photo of the report and sent it to her.
Elain replied instantly. She instructed Yuliana to try to stall Cole, while she figured out a way to deal with the rest.
" Oh my, oh dear." Yuliana panted as she began to put on an act.
Hearing this, Cole's eyes snapped to the rearview mirror. He saw Yuliana clutching her stomach in pain and her lips turning pale.
"Miss Yuliana, what's the matter?" Cole asked with concern.
Yuliana groaned weakly, "My stomach hurts. Send me to the hospital, quick."
Cole was stuck in a predicament. The president was still waiting for his documents.
Sensing Cole's uncertainty, Yuliana started to ramp up her act. "Ouch, it hurts! It really hurts so much!" shouted Yuliana.
Cole was startled by the shouting. Thinking quickly, he decided to change course.
This was a matter of life and death. To add fuel to fire, Yuliana was the president’ s fiancee. If anything were to happen to her, he wouldn't be able to bear responsibility.
Seeing that Cole had taken the bait, the corner of Yuliana’s lips curved upward in a slight smile.
"Oh, it' s so painful," complained Yuliana, keeping up her act. Noticing that Cole was speeding, she shouted hurriedly, "Cole, please slow down, slow down!"
Cole was puzzled. Considering the urgency of the situation, he slowed down but maintained a speed of 50mph.
Yuliana continued to insist that he was driving too fast. In the end, they slowed down to a 30mph crawl, which led to a few honks from irritated drivers behind them.
What was supposed to take 20 minutes to get there. They took an hour.
When they finally reached the hospital, Cole let out a long sigh of relief. However, Yuliana persistently clung to him.
Yuliana' s odd behavior raised some suspicions with Cole, but he could not think of any reason for her to fake her illness. Patiently, he accompanied Yuliana for a long list of tests.
Meanwhile, Elaine clasped her phone and paced back and forth in her house.
The only thing occupying her mind was the DNAtest results.
'The alleged father is not excluded as the biological father of the tested child.'
"Who in the world is Sheryl?"
In a flash, the name 'Charlotte Emerson' popped into her mind.
Could Sheryl Emerson be Charlotte's daughter?
Elaine trembled inadvertently. She couldn't possibly just sit and wait for her doom.
She immediately dialed her private investigators to do some snooping on Charlotte Emerson.
At the same time, she picked up her purse and stalked out. NôvelDrama.Org: text © owner.
She wanted to turn the tables before the report reached Shane.
