After a few minutes of driving, Anthony stopped the car into the cafe parking lot. He immediately went downstairs then opened the door for Clara who immediately came out and walked towards the main entrance of the cafe. The man chose to wait at the security post, mingling with the guards there.
Clara walked in a bit hastily while carrying a black branded bag into the main hall of the cafe, immediately greeted by the manager and invited to enter the VVIP room.
"Hi," said Clara when she saw Fabrizio and Paulina sitting relaxed while enjoying the dishes they ordered on the table. The woman approached them with a smile and then sat on the couch opposite them. "Did you guys wait for me too long?" She asked.
"Not too long, because we also just came here after taking the test results at the hospital," replied Fabrizio.
"Please read," Paulina called out, handing Clara a white envelope.
Clara grabbed the envelope and opened it and took out a neatly folded piece of paper and opened it. The woman slowly frowned as she read the results of the DNA test which stated that Frederica was not Nathan's daughter because there was no match at all.
"Oh my God," Clara whispered with a confused look.
"Why do you have to do this DNA test anyway?" asked Paulina, still not understanding the problem at hand.
Clara sighed. "This is a very big secret and only Nathan's extended family, including Felix, knows because he is their confidant. In the past, Patricia admitted that she was pregnant because Nathan had raped her..but Nathan didn't feel he was making her pregnant, he didn't even feel like he had raped her. Maybe at that time Nathan was made drunk or given drugs because Patricia has video evidence and lewd photos with Nathan ...
at that time Nathan could do nothing but be responsible and not by marrying her. He gave Patricia and Liora whatever they asked for because they always threatened to spread the videos and photos if Nathan kicked them out or did anything to them. and what's even weirder is that when Frederica was born, Nathan did a DNA test with all family members knowing, but the test result was positive he was indeed Frederica's father. he didn't believe the result so he asked Felix to do the test many times and the result was always positive." Clara explained in such detail, in such a low voice and very serious gaze at Paulina and Fabrizio.
"That result….immediately negative," said Paulina, glancing at the paper Clara brought. "I don't think there will be any mistake or fraud from anyone else because no one knows about this DNA test other than the doctor on duty there," she continued.
"That's why I'm confused because many times the DNA test has been done and the results are always positive. But why is it negative now? ... Could there have been cheating in the past?" Clara wondered with a frown then looked back at the DNA test results. "I think Nathan has been duped all this time by those who have been tasked with carrying out the DNA test. And surely the masterminds behind all this are Aunt Liora and Patricia...However, when the test result is always positive, it means that there is indeed a
biological father who also did the test. Then the results are entered together with Frederica's test results on Nathan's behalf."
"That means Patricia and Frederica's biological father are still close together, or maybe they are in cahoots," Fabrizio said after centuries of thoughtful silence.
"Conspiracy What do you mean?" asked Clara with a probing look.
Fabrizio sighed then drank his cocktail for a moment then looked at Clara seriously. "What I mean is, Patricia has been in a relationship with that guy for a long time, then set up Mr. Nathan to look like he raped her..then after that, she continued to have a relationship with the man until she became pregnant and accused Nathan of getting her pregnant. And I think they still conspire to take advantage of Nathan's accountability," he explained.
"Makes sense," Clara said.
"Then just show the results of this DNA bag to Mr. Nathan," said Paulina.
"Not now," said Fabrizio swiftly.
"But feel sorry for Mr. Nathan. He keeps getting annoyed because Patricia and Mrs. Liora must have made him very uncomfortable," said Paulina with a look of disapproval.
"He is very stressed because of this, especially those videos and photos are still being kept by Patricia and Aunt Liora. A trusted person who has always given results has made him even more cornered," said Clara angrily. "I don't think that confidant can be trusted anymore because he may have conspired with Aunt Liora and Patricia," he continued.
"It's very clear that that confidant does have an affinity with Liora and Patricia..especially when the poison case began to be investigated by him, Paulina became the target. it's not just about the poison that he betrayed, but from the very beginning Patricia started ruining Nathan's life the engineering she made," said Fabrizio so ambitiously, the only thing on his mind right now was Felix.
Clara was silent, remembering Arion's hint about Nathan's closest person being a dangerous person for him . she thought because the beginning of the problem all started with Patricia and Liora, maybe even Felix is Frederica's father because every time he gets an assignment to do a DNA test, he always produces a matching test result. She thought it might be Felix's DNA, not Nathan's.
"We'd better dismantle all of this after we can prove that Felix is behind all of Mr. Nathan's problems," said Fabrizio calmly. "This is like a task for me, but once you get a clue, everything will be finished because the perpetrator is centered on one person," he continued.
Clara sighed, then leaned her back against the couch's shoulder. She massaged her forehead, feeling dizzy from this complicated matter. .even the thought of Michael being with Mia so early in the morning still haunted her, making her uneasy.
Seeing Clara who was dizzy, Paulina got up from the couch. She walked over to the waiter to order a drink for her ex-boss's wife, while Felix was still sitting on the couch.
"Ma'am, when can I start helping Mr. Nathan with the Casey accident case?" Fabrizio asked, breaking the silence.
"Soon," Clara said quickly, then pushed her back away from the couch's shoulders. "You invite him, meet in secret...You tell him you're an old friend of Casey who can't take the case closed. Later I will come with Nathan when I see you, we pretend not to know each other….and you can also bring Paulina, so that after that we can freely meet to discuss what our plans are to resolve the existing problems, without fear of Nathan getting suspicious," she continued.
"That's a great idea, ma'am...I have also prepared evidence to free Paulina," said Fabrizio with a relieved smile.
Clara just nodded, then returned to silence because she was sad.. She was sad to think about Nathan, Michael, the accident case, the poison case, even she was very sad because she didn't know whether after 99 days she could still enjoy life in this world, or indeed it was better to die because everything looked bad for her, except Nathan who cared for her by real, considering voluntarily paying a high-priced doctor to treat her and take care of her case without fear of Robert or Oskar.
