Let's Get Married Chapter 375: Paternity Test

As Lily crouches down to hold him, Adair jumps into her arms. If it wasn’t for Rex, she would have
fallen onto the ground.

Adair has never been a child who cries, but now he can’t help but sob in her arms. “Mom, I missed you
so much.”

His soft voice filled with fear and grief is like a dagger through Lily’s heart. She raises her hand to dry
his tears, “Don’t cry. Don’t cry, mom is here to pick you up.”

Adair isn’t a child who makes trouble, and soon he stops crying. When he raises his hand and touches
his little face, Lily notices a band aid on his thumb.

“What happened? Did you get hurt?” she asks as she clutches his hand tenderly.

Hearing this, Rex frowns and leans over. But this time, Adair, who has never shown guard against him,
shuns his touch and hides himself in Lily’s arms. “Father’s Grandmother and Grandfather pricked it.”
He says in a low voice.

Lily’s tenderness caused by seeing her child becomes harder again upon hearing the sentence. Her
eyes are red and she blows on his finger. “Mom is here. Don’t be afraid.”

Adair doesn’t want her to worry, and cleverly shakes his head. “Mom, I’m okay.”

Lily stands up and holds her child against her. She doesn’t want to get entangled with Rex’s family, but
what she’d just seen and heard is as if a bucket of gasoline that has been poured over her, setting
everything on fire.

She isn’t an uneducated person, but now it is obvious that all reason has evaded her. “Who pricked
him?”



Listening to her, the old couple looks at each other. Deep in their eyes one can see the presence of a
guilty conscience and a lack of confidence. After two seconds of silence, Rex’s grandfather coughs, “It
was done by a family doctor. When the child was brought here, we had to confirm it.”

His answer isn’t what Lily expects.

Family Doctor, confirm, pricking his finger.

By using their brains one can see what is going one once you put these words together. It is a paternity
test. They were not sure if the child is Rex’ or not. So they did a DNA test.

Lily’s eyes widen as she tries to control her strength so she doesn’t hurt her child. “You…did it in front
of the child?” she asks, suddenly feeling flustered, fearing that Adair will now know who his father is
without any precaution. She also feels afraid that he will not accept it, and that it will leave an indelible
impact on his young mind.

“Isn’t this normal? We can’t just randomly have outsiders claim that they’ve given birth to a child of our
family. But if he’s really our offspring, then we will bring him back.” Rex’s grandfather doesn’t know if it
is the guilt that is making his voice so high.

“But in the end, we saw that the child is indeed yours and Rex’. Afterwards he’s our descendant.”

This sentence undoubtedly causes an explosion in Lily’s heart. She can’t imagine that the patriarch of
Rex’s Family, who is also a cultured man, would say and do things like this.

Over the past five years, she’s been very careful with her relationships, but Rex’s grandfather
presented through those relationships and feelings in front of her child, forcing him to accept and face
it.



Lily looks down at Adair, who is also looking up at her. Their eyes meet in the air. She can clearly see
the loss and cowardice in the child’s eyes.

It is an expression she’d never before seen in Adair’s eyes. The eyes that are always bright and
optimistic are now filled with cowardice. All of these are caused by Rex’s grandparents.

For the first time in five years, Lily cannot suppress her temper. In her eyes, there aren’t two kind
seniors, but mean and vicious attackers.

She is just a mother who wants to protect her child. “Adair is my child. I have and will never entrust him
to others, nor do I want to claim ties of kinship with anyone. I’m afraid you are misunderstanding things.
I don’t intent to let my child recognize you as his families. Not now, and not in the future. Adair is my
child. You don’t have permission to decide such things and even if you want to do anything, you’ll have
to get my consent and permission.” She says angrily.

“You!” Rex’s grandfather says angrily. “You don’t know what’s good from bad!”

“Enough!” Rex, who has been silently standing behind him, suddenly shouts.

He looks away from the child, and his gaze falls on the old man sitting on the sofa. “This is my business
with Lily. You don’t have to worry about it. Adair is only four years old, if you really wanted to treat him
as a family member, you wouldn’t have done such a thing.”

“Well, I and your grandmother did this for your sake! And you, you speak for her”. Rex’s grandfather
says as he stands up and holds the sofa with his right hand. One can see that his body isn’t as strong
as before.

But Lily can’t find herself to sympathize with him, not when he has hurt her child.



“From today on, I won’t let you see the child again. Adair has nothing to do with your family. You can
rest assured that you won’t have to worry about his identity.” Lily says before taking a deep breath. This
is the last thing she wants her child to witness, but it has happened already, and since that is the case,
she will leave room for them. “Five years ago, I chose to leave. I thought I was wrong and I came back,
but now it seems that coming back was another wrong start. So it ends here. We will each go our
separate ways!”

This sentence undoubtedly draws all boundaries, firmly.

Rex knows that his grandfather’s behavior has crossed Lily’s line. But her words just now, cause his
heart to miss one beat because of the fear of losing her and Adair.

The most powerless thing is that he himself cannot argue against it.

Adair’s eyes are no longer warm and happy, but instead cautious as he doesn’t dare look at them
directly. He isn’t any better than Lily.

But still Rex’s grandfather doesn’t realize his mistake, and he even adds fuel. “I don’t care what you
think; as long as the blood of our family flows in this child, he is a member of our family!”

Lily is speechless, and they didn’t take her words seriously, she doesn’t say anything else. Instead she
takes the child’s hand, turns around and leaves.

Rex doesn’t stop them and follows them.

“Mom, mom, slow down. I can’t keep up with you.” Adair says as he tries to keep up with her fast steps.
After all, he is a child, how could he keep up with an adult’s strides.

Lily realizes that she is walking too fast, and slows down her pace immediately. “Sorry, mom didn’t
realize that.”



Adair shakes his head. “Mom, I’m so happy you came to get me.”

His words make her heartbroken. Her child is so obedient and sensible. But as a mother, she couldn’t
settle these matters and made him suffer.
