The Epic Blind Date with My Boss

Chapter 827 Conducting A DNA Test 

“So, she has been abroad,” Mallory stated firmly as she examined the video closely. “But there’s not much change, just in the jaw and cheekbones. It’s subtle, and only a professional would notice it.”

Having spent a lot of time by Calvin’s side, Mallory had encountered many women with various motives, making her adept at reading people.

Josie furrowed her brows. “Are you absolutely sure?”

Mallory leaned against the railing, her expression shifting with the gentle breeze. “I’m quite sure. She didn’t undergo plastic surgery to enhance her beauty; she altered her original appearance, trying to become…”

She struggled to find the right words, leaving her explanation incomplete.

Nevertheless, Josie felt relieved at her words. “Thank you; you’ve been a great help. I’ll treat you to a meal, sometime.” Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!

Mallory wasn’t done yet; she turned to ask, “Is it true what they say about you and Morgan?”

“You’re quite the gossip.” Josie sighed.

“I’m not prying; I’m just curious,” Mallory explained. “Before you started making headlines with Morgan, the news about Dexter and Heather was all over the place. I can’t help but wonder if you did it to spite. him.”

Upon hearing this, Josie couldn’t help but feel a sense of irony. “If he doesn’t care at all, then what I’m. doing is meaningless.”

Mallory wiggled her finger at the other woman. “Dexter returned to Wavery before you did; he met with Calvin this morning.”

Josie was surprised. “That fast?”

“Your expression still betrays some feelings for him,” Mallory observed.

Hearing this, Josie was reminded of the way Dexter had punished her in the car the previous night, and she couldn’t help but feel a surge of anger. “Don’t disgust me.”

Mallory chuckled and opened her arms for a hug. “I’m just relieved to see you’re okay. When I first heard. about your divorce, I was quite worried.”

Josie, her heart warmed by the gentle embrace, which had been cold for so long, felt on the verge of tears. “Thank you.”

This gesture solidified Josie’s trust in Mallory even further.

“Actually, there’s one more thing I need your help with,” Josie said as she pulled out a folder. “Inside, there are three samples. Two of them need separate DNA tests, and they should be compared with the one from the person with white hair.”

Initially planning to ask Laura for help, Josie now couldn’t wait any longer. The sooner this matter was resolved, the better.

Mallory opened the folder and examined its contents. One of the samples had a distinct marking. She seemed somewhat surprised as she asked, “You suspect that…”

Josie nodded, her expression serious. “I’m not entirely sure yet, but I need your help with this. Please keep it confidential. My public image is too conspicuous, so I have no choice but to handle it discreetly.”

After a moment of contemplation, Mallory nodded slowly. “I’ll help you with this.”

Josie expressed her gratitude and then offered a suggestion, “If possible, it would be best to conduct the tests in Lightspring. I have some concerns about the discretion of the laboratories in Wavery.”

Mallory understood the implication and nodded in agreement. “I’ll provide you with an answer within the next three days.”

As Josie left Heaven on Earth, she received a message from Laura: What’s going on? Also, everyone’s talking about your scandal with Morgan. It’s all over the city. Are you back?

Josie chose to respond only to the first sentence: Everything is fine now.

Meanwhile, amidst the gossip headlines, financial news was making waves.

Russell Group had been bottom-fishing, delivering an unexpected blow to foreign investors. This prompted the Securities Regulatory Commission to launch thorough investigations into major companies. to determine if there was any insider trading involving public information. The Carter Group was the first to face the consequences, with Arnold being taken in for questioning.

Originally, Russell Group had been hit hard by the scandal involving Josie’s photos. However, the recent developments had also erased some of the Carter Group’s victories.

Neither side achieved an absolute victory.

However, the Carter Group faced another setback when a photo and video of Summer pa*sionately kissing a stranger in a bar emerged, dealing yet another heavy blow to their reputation.
