After confirming whether she is the descendant of that man, we can then set the next step in our plan. There are many steps between now and when we prepare for the worst. I’ve already thought of two solutions; whether she is or isn’t, I can handle this issue,” said Kiara.

It was just that Kiara had become so nervous when she first deduced this that she hadn’t investigated this simple matter properly and was fretting needlessly.

After Kiara finished speaking, Mario Yuno squinted his eyes.

“So… after all your research, you’ve just come to the conclusion of a paternity test?”

Is it really that simple?

The private paternity tests in the Domestic Region only started the year before last, and not many people knew about them.

“I’ve carefully studied the materials he gave me, and I found that many cases that seem complicated are actually quite simple when you get down to the essentials. His diagnostic style is very simple, but it’s always effective. As the saying goes, ‘The extraordinary is often mistaken for the ordinary,'” Kiara argued.

This way of thinking from the expert made Kiara’s thoughts diverge. She felt that the technique she had not been able to break through for many years was suddenly inspired in a different way.

Mario Yuno saw the spirited look on her face and a flicker of hesitation flashed in his eyes as he finally smoothed out her hair with his hand.

“Let’s eat first. We can talk about other things later.”

The two of them went out for a simple late-night meal. On the way back, Mario Yuno, looking at the street lights ahead, said something out of the blue.

“Actually, we are going to be together for a very long time.”

“Hm?” Kiara didn’t understand why he would suddenly say something like this.

“So… ‘If two hearts are loyal through the ages, why should they care about the everyday nearness?'”

“Speak human!”

“If you really like Professor Joel that much, I don’t mind waiting for you for three years,” Mario Yuno said.

This was a conclusion that Camden had come to after a great deal of internal struggle.

Of course, he hoped she would stay with him forever, and he also dreamed of a beautiful future together.

But he could feel the excitement she could hardly hide when she talked about Yuzo Joel, and her ideals that were always in her heart.

“But don’t you want a child?” Kiara never expected him to say such a thing.

Given his nature, it was almost as if he wanted to tie them together with a rope. If she went to study in the Southern Region, she wouldn’t just come back in a couple of months; it would be several years at least. His work was not going to change. Could he really handle being apart for so many years?

Mario Yuno was torn inside, but in the end, reason triumphed over emotion. He knew Kiara had a heart that longed to soar, and how could he bear to pull her down from the heights she sought?

“A child can be had anytime, but you are at the stage of your education now; don’t miss this golden opportunity,” he said, with the tone of a husband.

Kiara was deeply moved by his words.

He had made many changes for her, from being overbearing and self-centered at the beginning to now being considerate and empathetic. He had truly grown a lot.

“I won’t deny that this incident has made me realize the academic authority and charm of Yuzo Joel, but I still don’t want to go.”

“Is it because of me?” he asked.

“Not entirely. Looking after the home is one reason, but there’s also another main reason,” Kiara said thoughtfully, pondering how to phrase her next words.

“I have a strange premonition that I should stay away from Yuzo Joel. It feels like if I get too close, I might get caught up in some complicated matters.”

Kiara couldn’t specifically explain this premonition; she analyzed it as a kind of human instinct.

The ability to foresee danger is one of human’s innate instincts. Kiara had felt on several occasions that Yuzo Joel was unfathomable. She didn’t know whether he was a friend or foe but was certain her current strength was not on the same level as his. It was wiser to keep her distance than to confront him and suffer a disadvantage.

Hearing her say this, Mario Yuno didn’t insist any further; he respected all of Kiara’s decisions.

After returning home, they discussed the issue and concluded that since Zoe was Second Brother’s child, a paternity test could not be done without involving Second Brother.

Therefore, they decided that Kiara would drive over the next day to talk to Second Brother personally. Unexpectedly, in the middle of the night, someone knocked on the door. When Mario Yuno went to open it, an anxious-looking Second Brother stood at the threshold.

Only Second Brother of the Yuno Family, with his extremely low EQ, could manage to knock on someone’s door in the middle of the night.

“I’ve thought it over; I want to do a paternity test for Zoe,” Second Brother said straightforwardly.

Kiara, wrapped in a bathrobe, and Mario Yuno, in his underpants, exchanged a glance. They hadn’t anticipated this outcome, thinking that the stubborn Second Brother would resist this matter. Kiara had mentally prepared herself to reason with Second Brother with emotion and logic.

To their surprise, he had come over by himself in the middle of the night.

“Second Brother, how did you suddenly come to this decision?” Mario Yuno thought his Second Brother was the kind of man who wouldn’t turn back until he hit a wall.

“No matter who Zoe’s biological father is, he is my son. I just don’t want to leave him with any regrets. Let’s first conduct the test to see if he is his birth father. If that’s the case–”

“You plan to tell him when he grows up?” Kiara asked curiously; she really wanted to understand the inner trajectory of the stoic Second Brother.

“I will keep this matter a secret and forbid anyone from telling Zoe. He is my son. I’m doing this test only because I want to know how to educate my son in the future. I’m also not planning on leaving the child with you. I’ll raise him myself.”

It took Kiara a few seconds to wrap her mind around it.

Second Brother… is quite ruthless!

This was about erasing all traces of the birth father in the child’s heart; he was even planning not to tell Isaac.

Whether Zoe was that man’s son or not didn’t matter; what mattered was that Second Brother would certainly raise Zoe. If it turned out the child had problems, he would invest even more thought into the child’s education.

“Have you thought it through?” Kiara asked Second Brother.

“I have, he is my son no matter when. If I give up on him, who else will care for him in the future?”

From the moment they found the baby, he had an indelible connection with Second Brother’s life.

Raising a child who might have a flawed character was a promise made in a single sentence.

But from the moment Second Brother said, “He is my son,” it meant a silent commitment.

Zoe would never know the decisions his father had made for him until the last moment of his life, but Kiara felt that Zoe was fortunate to have met Second Brother.

“Since you have made up your mind, I respect your decision. I will cooperate with you in the follow-up. No matter what, Zoe will always be a child of the Old Yates Family, and no one will give up on him.”

Kiara concluded that the secret of Zoe’s origins would forever remain within the walls of the Old Yates Family.

After seeing off Second Brother, Mario Yuno wasn’t sleepy anymore and looked Kiara up and down.

“What, haven’t you seen me before?” Kiara scolded him.

“I have, but I feel that today… you’ve surprised me a bit.”

“What’s surprising?”
