"Do you feel honored? What are you proud of?" Hackett asked in a deep voice.
Ben instantly cowered, chuckling. Im not proud. I'm just stating a fact. Valeria is definitely my daughter. Her mother would not dare to betray me. Why are you asking about this?"
"I now suspect that Valeria may not be your daughter at all. How could someone with your character possibly have fathered Valerial
Now, thinking about it, Valeria and Ben seemed to have nothing in common, they did not look alike, and their personalities. were entirely different. They did not seem like father and daughter at all. "You're going too far with this, Mr. James. Valeria is undeniably my daughter. This is an established fact."
Hackett couldn't be bothered with him and turned to Tyler, saying, "Bring Melvin in
Tyler nodded lazily and got up from the sofa. He walked out of the office with a relaxed demeanor,
Melvin Wilcox was the private doctor of the James family, serving the family for many years. He was highly skilled, and his lips were sealed tight. This was why the family liked him that much. "Mr. James. Melvin greeted as he came in
Hackett signaled with a glance, and Melvin nodded. He took out his medical kit and approached Ben.
"What are you going to do, Mr. James? Why did you bring a doctor here!"
Melvin took out a syringe and some blood collection tubes from his toolbox, leaving Ben looking terrified.
"What are you going to do? Spare me, Mr. James. I haven't done anything wrong recently."
Melvin replied, "Just stretch out your arm. We're only drawing some blood for tests. It won't take much."
"Is it really that simple?" Ben didn't believe it.
Tyler walked over and pulled Ben's arm out, placing it in front of Melvin. "Quit the nonsense. After the blood is drawn, you can leave. Why are you blabbering here? It's annoying."
With Tyler's scolding. Ben instantly behaved and endured the blood draw by Melvin. It took less than a minute, and two tubes of blood were drawn.
Then, Hackett instructed Tyler. "Have the driver send him away
"Understood." Then, Tyler led Ben out of the office, leaving Melvin in the room.
"Melvin, how long will it take for the DNA test?"
"At the soonest, it will take about a week to get the results."
Hackett nodded. "Alright, I'll provide you with another blood sample as soon as possible."
After Melvin left. Tyler returned to the office and asked curiously, "Mr. James, why did you draw blood from that old gambler? Are you planning to give him a medical examination?" Hackett no longer had any relations with that gambler, so why he had to be so concerned about him?
Hackett's expression darkened. "I suspect that Valeria may not be that gambler's daughter.

Tyler, who had been looking drowsy, instantly woke up, almost losing his balance. "What? Although it's true that Valeria didn't inherit that gambler's bad genes, what evidence do you have to suggest that she's not his daughter?"
Hackett turned the computer screen toward Tyler. "Based on this
Tyler looked at the simulated image on the screen and blurted out, "Isn't this M
Sharp's image? What does this mean?"
As expected, anyone who looked at this image couldn't help but think of Valeria. A faint smile appeared on Hackett's lips as he slowly explained, "This is a simulation of what the eldest daughter of the Maddox family, who went missing in her childhood, would look like twenty years later. Do you also think it resembles Valeria Tyler was instantly shocked. "Are you suggesting that Valeria might be the daughter of that cunning old fox, Clayton?"
Tyler felt like her worldview was about to shatter. This world was simply too crazy, and he couldn't imagine the changes that would occur if this were true. If Valeria were Clayton's daughter, oh my goodness...
In the afternoon, the sun was shining brightly.
Today, Valeria planned to visit an office space for rent. She wanted to rent a well-located office but didn't want to spend too much money, so she had to put in some effort and look around
"Starting a business alone is really not easy. She couldn't help but sigh. Well-located office spaces were expensive, and affordable ones were often in remote areas. It was truly a challenge.
At that moment, her phone rang. She swiped the screen and answered. "Hello, Valeria Sharp. Who is this?"
It's me, Hackett."
Upon hearing his voice, Valeria's expression darkened. "What's the matter? Shouldn't you be accompanying your fiancée to try on wedding dresses? Why are you calling me?" Perhaps she hadn't noticed, but her tone was dripping with jealousy. "My wound is hurting a bit. I'm at the hospital, applying medication. Tyler is out on business, and I can't drive. Could you come and pick me up?"
Well... why did this sound suspicious?
Valeria didn't think much of it and immediately declined, saying "Don't you have plenty of bodyguards except for Tyler? I remember your family has many of them. Can't you just ask anyone to send you home?" She felt like this guy was doing it on purpose After saying this, she was about to hang up the phone. Unexpectedly, Hackett said, "Regardless, I got injured for your sake. Is this how you treat your lifesaver?"
He hadn't mentioned anything about repayment before, and now he was suddenly calling himself a lifesaver.
Valeria chuckled and said, "But I didn't ask you to get injured for me."
"Ms. Sharp, you're being a bit heartless. I'm the man who protected you from being harmed by sulfuric acid. Even though I didn't expect you to be grateful, can't you agree to such a small request to send me home Who would dare to lend a helping hand in the future with your attitude like this?"
Ms. Sharp? Hearing herself being called "Ms. Sharp," she couldn't help but get annoyed.
"Fine, I'll come to the hospital. Wait for me!" She gritted her teeth.
At the hospital. Hackett and Tyler had everything arranged here, waiting for Valeria to arrive. Today, they had to collect Valeria's blood, no matter what. If the DNA test showed that Valena wasn't Ben's daughter, it was highly likely that she was Clayton's missing eldest daughter, Elena Maddox.
Chapter 252
After about half an hour, Valeria arrived at the hospital. As she walked toward the elevator, she couldn't help muttering under her breath, "What a scumbag, Why didn't he ask Elsie to pick him up at a time like this? Am I destined to suffer like this? Why does he always involve me in these troublesome matters?"
The elevator door opened just as she stepped inside, and Tyler followed closely behind her into the elevator. At the moment when Valeria was about to turn around, Tyler used a handkerchief to cover her mouth and nose. Suddenly, her vision went dark, and she lost consciousness, held firmly in Tyler's arms.
"You can't blame me for this. If you want to blame someone, blame Mr. James. It was his idea.".
With a ding, the elevator door slowly opened.
Tyler carried Valeria out of the elevator and headed toward Melvin's office.
Valeria woke up again after an unknown amount of time, finding herself lying in a hospital bed. Her head was still a bit hazy. "What's happening to me..." She slowly sat up, clutching her head, and then noticed the figure standing by the window. Hackett turned around. "You fainted in the hospital. You seem to be a bit anemic
