"Grandpa, it seems you've thought of it too," Jersaid, leaning in to take the glass from the old man's hand and wiping the droplets of water off his backhand with a tissue.

Nelson, in disbelief, grasped Jerome's hand with force. "Could it be... Liz is the one? How is that possible?" His voice quivered, but his mind flashed back to the first the saw Lizetta, the shock he felt at her familiar appearance. And the inexplicable warmth he felt every the saw that child. He also remembered the paternity test he had conducted for Andrea eight years ago.

"Grandpa, I secretly redid the paternity test. Here's the electronic version of the final result; you can take a look. The paper version will be delivered by Horace later." Seeing Nelson had guessed, Jeropened the paternity test report he had just received on his phone and pushed it towards him. "This one is the grandmother's and Liz's paternity test, confirming her as our granddaughter. And this one is the comparison between the grandmother and Nianwen's DNA, showing they are not related. I also sent a sample of your hair to be tested with Liz; though it's a bit more complex, the results will be out later." As Jerspoke, Nelson, trembling, put on his glasses and reviewed both reports carefully. His chest heaved, "So... Liz is Elsa's daughter, my granddaughter!" Nelson's voice was hoarse, seeking confirmation again from Jerome. Even after a lifetof experiences, this truth still left him utterly disoriented.

Jernodded, and Nelson suddenly stood up, accidentally knocking over the glass of water. "Grandpa! Please, try to calm down," Jerrushed to support Nelson.

Nelson said, clenching his fist and pounding the table. Thinking of Lizetta's experiences, knowing that the only Blood of the Madden family had been suffering outside, he was overwhelmed with guilt and Love self-reproach. His vision darkened, and his breathing quickened.

Jerhurriedly soothed him, "Grandpa, we didn't know before, but now that we've found her, there's plenty of tahead. You must take care of yourself so you can welcyour granddaughter hand uncover the truth to seek justice for her." After giving Nelson his usual blood pressure medication, he gradually calmed down, waving off the visibly concerned Jerome. "I'm fine, you're right. I need to stay strong for Liz!"

Nelson thought of his wife, who, first sight despite her confusion, recognized her granddaughter at first sight, longing for her. Yet he had been oblivious to his granddaughter's presence all this time, blaming himself for being the truly senile one, feeling he had let her down.

He closed his eyes, instructing in a hoarse voice, "We must keep this under wraps for now. How the N child was switched, whetkek the problem lies Within the Madden family, what happened with the fake paternity test years ago, we need to investigate thoroughly! And, finda reliable psychologist. I need to know if it's right to tell Liz about this..." х
