Cold Husband Burning Regret: The Divorce He Couldn't Handle novel Chapter 707

Jensen and Ilse looked at him and Evander in utter confusion. Victor raised his chin towards the back. His assistant immediately stepped forward and handed a freshly printed document to Jensen.

Jensen took the document, his face full of doubt. After scanning just two lines, his expression turned ashen. "What... what is this?"

Ilse snatched the document from him. It was a DNA paternity test report.

Jensen and Chrystal showed a 25% DNA match, indicating a paternal half-blood relation!

"Ladies and gentlemen, today was supposed to be a joyous engagement banquet, an event I, for one, have long anticipated! Yet I have only just discovered that in this engagement, the Pembrokes have been the greatest victims!" Victor looked out at the assembled guests, his voice resolute. "My daughter-in-law, Chrystal, is originally a daughter of the Howard family!"

At these words, the entire banquet hall erupted.

Ilse slumped limply to the side. The report in her hand fluttered to the ground. The stark black results on the white paper were clearly visible to nearby guests, and the murmuring grew louder.

"Oh my god, Mrs. Pembroke is actually a Howard daughter! That means Young Master Pembroke is——"

"This is a consanguineous engagement! My goodness, if not for this report, it would have been an incestuous affair!"

"But didn't the late Mrs. Howard have only two sons? How could..."

The guests' discussions were precisely the result Victor wanted. He needed the Howards to be forced to acknowledge his grandson's and daughter-in-law's identities!

Victor turned his head to look at Evander, his tone dripping with undisguised mockery. "Mr. Howard, you and the late Mrs. Howard knew this secret. Yet you did nothing to stop our two families from proceeding with this engagement. I must say, I am quite surprised."

Ilse and Jensen also looked at Evander.
