Chapter 280: Chapter 280

Alaric Faulkner didn’t know what Jasper Faulkner thought of that woman, but it was certain that he cared a little about her.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been looking for so long and kept postponing Mrs. Faulkner’s matchmaking arrangements.

Jasper Faulkner is indeed fortunate to have Eleanor Sterling give birth to a son and daughter for him.

Estelle Sterling was stunned upon hearing this.

So, Eleanor Sterling had already gotten Jasper Faulkner’s blood?

Suddenly, an uneasy feeling stirred in his heart.

"Um... Uncle Faulkner, I’ll head back to my room first, we can chat later."

He needed to double-check if there were any issues on Liam Keene’s end.

This was a crucial moment, and nothing else could go wrong.

Alaric Faulkner nodded, "Go ahead."

Estelle Sterling couldn’t wait another moment and dashed back to the room.

Caleb Faulkner was engrossed in a game, enjoying the virtual battle, when he noticed Estelle Sterling looking all panicked and asked, "What’s wrong?"

Estelle Sterling clutched his anxious heart and said, "Just now, Alaric Faulkner asked about my blood type, and I told him."

Hearing this, Caleb Faulkner lost interest in his game and quickly asked, "And then? Did he suspect you?"

"He found out I’m not his child, and then he told me that Sister Eleanor took Jasper Faulkner’s blood for testing."

"How did he find out..." Caleb Faulkner looked as if his world had collapsed.

"No, that’s not the key point, we can pretend we don’t know, as long as Mom Eleanor doesn’t slip up."

Estelle Sterling’s face darkened, and he immediately called Liam Keene.

Since Eleanor Sterling left Aethelgard, Liam Keene had been busy and overwhelmed. This update is available on novel⟡fire.net

When he received Estelle Sterling’s call, he hadn’t had a chance to react, "Little ancestor, what’s wrong?"

Estelle Sterling, with a calm face, asked, "Sister Eleanor went for another test, I know you’re in Aethelgard, have you managed things at the lab?"

There was a long silence on the other end of the phone.

Estelle Sterling’s heart grew colder and colder, as if plunged into an icy wasteland.

Liam Keene lightly coughed and quietly said, "I... I forgot to mention it."

Crash, Estelle Sterling heard the sound of a breaking heart.

Caleb Faulkner had been waiting quietly this whole time, and upon seeing the hopeless despair on Estelle Sterling’s face, he vaguely sensed something.

He cautiously asked, "Little Star, is it leaked?"

Estelle Sterling gritted his teeth and angrily said, "Liam Keene, you’re going to get me killed!"

Liam Keene hurriedly tried to appease, "I just got busy and forgot, this is very important, I didn’t dare let anyone else handle it, so only I knew..."

Estelle Sterling didn’t want to hear his excuses; none of these excuses could change one fact.

That the lab’s test results would prove he and Caleb Faulkner were Jasper Faulkner’s children.

Caleb Faulkner sighed and asked, "So what do we do now?"

Estelle Sterling was at a loss.

"Let’s take it one step at a time."

Rosalie Ray sat in a bedroom.

Faye Sterling sat in front of her, "Mom, did you call me for something?"

Rosalie Ray took out a pendant and put it around Faye Sterling’s neck.

"Faye, I lied to you before, this belonged to Eleanor Sterling’s mother."

Faye Sterling was taken aback and quickly took a look at it. The jade pendant was milky white, with a gentle and delicate texture, yet nothing extraordinary could be seen about it.

"Mom, why did you say you didn’t have it before? Why did you lie to me? And why are you giving it to me now?"

Rosalie Ray sighed, "Old Aunt Jade was taken away by Eleanor Sterling.

Eleanor Sterling will eventually force me to hand it over, I can’t hold onto it, so I’m giving it to you.

This pendant holds very important power that can let you rise to the top."

Faye Sterling’s eyes widened, looking at Rosalie Ray in shock, and she asked tremblingly, "What important power?"
