The Mocked Miss’s Hidden Crowns novel Chapter 865

N Organization Laboratory

Charlotte handed two clear bags over to the researcher.

“Nine, make sure we get the results in three hours, no later.”

“Got it.”

She glanced at the hair samples, then made her way back to the lounge, dropping onto the nearest sofa.

Jackson and Adonis exchanged a look, both frowning. Wasn’t Charlotte acting a little too calm about this? One of those samples might belong to her real father.

Jackson stepped up and spoke quietly. “Franco keeps his wife under strict protection. In the entire Presidential Palace, only her doctor and a couple of personal maids have even seen her. No one knows what’s really wrong with her.”

“It’s going to take some time to get her full medical records. Dr. David wanted me to let you know.”

“Alright.”

Charlotte’s fingers froze for a second, then she answered with her usual laid-back tone. “We’ll wait.”

Wait? Jackson and Adonis glanced at each other, confused by how flat her voice sounded. She had to be just as anxious for the results as they were. If Franco was really her father, then Mrs. Hawk might actually be her mother. After all, the only story about what happened to Charlotte’s mom came from Steven, and Nora’s body was never even found. It was hard not to wonder. Once the DNA results were in, everything would finally be clear.

Meanwhile, at Apex.

Anthony’s meeting had dragged on late into the night. As much as he missed Charlotte, he didn’t want to risk waking her with a call.

“Anthony, all the papers are sorted,” Hans said as he stepped out of the conference room. Seeing Anthony staring off into space, Hans couldn’t help but frown. Anthony really did treat Charlotte like a kid. He’d just left her side, but he already looked worried, like he wanted to hop on a plane and go straight back.

“Any updates on F’s background?”
