Scars Of A Broken Bond by Calv Momose

Chapter: 470
“Are you sure about that? My friend has no reason to lie. I’m going to check the hospital records right now.”
“Wait! Now I remember!”
Rory’s heart raced. He had to prevent her from digging further
“Then explain yourself.”
“On the 17th... It’s just a big misunderstanding! I was wandering near Monreal Avenue, lost in my thoughts, oblivious to the
traffic. I narrowly avoided being hit by a car, and as I swerved, I bumped into a woman. We weren’t acting inappropriately at all.
You can even check with your friend.”
“And why did you visit the gynecology department?”
“I never visited the gynecology department. Your friend must have been mistaken. I fell during the incident and had to get
checked for injuries.”
“Are you certain? You’re not lying to me? If I find out you’ve been dishonest...”
“Honey, I would never lie to you!” Rory affirmed.
Reflecting on Galilea’s particular call, the girl found a glimmer of joy. Perhaps this could open the door to a friendship with
Galilea.
Once the misunderstanding was resolved, the girl made a special call to Galilea. “Ms. Clifford, I want to thank you for your
advice. Did you see Rory at Monreal Avenue?”
“Yes,” Galilea affirmed.
“Oh, there was a mix-up! He nearly got hit by a car and accidentally bumped into a girl. He helped her up and went to the
hospital to check for injuries. He didn’t know her.”
“So it was a misunderstanding, after all. That’s a relief. I wish you and Rory all the best.”
Then, Galilea ended the call.

“What was the point of all that?” Evie queried, her lips pursed.
“Is it really a coincidence? Rory bumped into a woman just before going to the hospital for a paternity test?”
“You’re suggesting that woman is...”
Realizing the implications, Evie erupted. “Osiris has been keeping this from me for at least a decade! He is so heartless!”
This explained why Osiris had opted for a paternity test.
If the girl in the paternity report was borne by his mistress in recent years, there wouldn’t be a need for a paternity test.
Disregarding Evie’s rant, Galilea requested the surveillance footage in Monreal Avenue.
The footage was promptly delivered to Galilea’s phone.
She fast-forwarded a bit until she spotted Rory, then slowed it down to watch.
