Chapter 759  Truth or Another Lie?

Day Seventy-Nine…

~~*****~~

[ At Country J: Sawada Clan Branch Headquarters… ]

Jane, Mr. Hiroshi, Tatsumi, and Vincent were gathered in Tatsumi's office. The room was filled with heavy tension as they waited for the DNA test result.

"My lady, are you nervous?" Tatsumi whispered to Jane. They were sitting next to each other.

In contrast to Jane's uneasy expression, Vincent remained calm. Confidence could be seen in his posture as if he had nothing to hide.

"I'm not nervous. But I have this nagging feeling that Vincent is up to something. We couldn't trust him. He is a great manipulator," Jane responded.

"Why don't you talk to your father? I guess he will listen to you. He will prioritize you. Just tell him you don't want to see Vincent ever again," Tatsumi suggested. He could sense that Jane was feeling uncomfortable because of Vincent's presence. In order to address this, Jane should be vocal and express her real feelings with her father.

"I'll do that later… after getting the result. By the way, where is Mia?" Jane hadn't seen Mia. She wondered if Vincent was serious with his threat. He might be hiding Mia now.

"According to Dad, Mia went out together with Speed, Vincent's subordinate."

Jane just nodded her head.

It did not take long before a medical staff entered the room, holding two white envelopes. Everyone's attention shifted to her.

"The result is out, Master." The medical staff informed Mr. Hiroshi, handing the sealed documents over to him.

Mr. Hiroshi cast a glance at Jane. "Do you want to open the result first?" He consulted Jane. "I think… you should see it first." Mr. Hiroshi added before giving her the sealed envelope containing the DNA Test Result between Mia and her. The old man kept the other envelope. He wanted to check the results between Mia and Vincent.

Vincent stared at Jane for a long moment, watching her as she gripped the document with her fingers. He was anticipating to see her reaction after reading the result. No one would ever doubt this result because Mr. Hiroshi, himself, had overseen the entire process.

Jane's hands trembled as she held the sealed envelope containing the results of the DNA test. The weight of anticipation and anxiety hung in the air, and she couldn't help but feel her heart pounding in her chest.

In a quiet room, she carefully tore open the envelope, revealing the document that held the answer to the question– 'Is Mia truly my daughter?'. As she unfolded the pages, her eyes scanned the words that would unveil the truth. There, in clear and irrefutable language, it was confirmed – Mia was indeed her daughter. A surge of emotions overwhelmed Jane – relief, joy, and confusion. 'How could this be possible? All this time… I thought my baby died in my womb.' Tears welled up in her eyes as she traced the lines on the paper, absorbing the reality that the search for truth had come to an end.

"What does it say, my Lady?" Tatsumi asked her expectantly.

Mr. Hiroshi was also staring at Jane intently, waiting for her response.

"Mia… Mia is my… d-daughter."

Mr. Hiroshi and Tatsumi were rendered speechless. But after hearing the result, Mr. Hiroshi also unsealed the envelope in his hand. It was his turn to confirm the relationship between Mia and Vincent.

Mr. Hiroshi had the same reaction as Jane. His eyes widened in surprise and he turned to look at Vincent with disbelief. "He is Mia's father," Mr. Hiroshi declared.

When his words reached Jane's ears, her heart sank in mischief. This was the last thing she wanted to hear. As a reflex, Jane rose from her seat and stormed out of the room, running away from them.

'I loathed Vincent so much! I'm such a fool for allowing him to play with my emotions over and over again! I hate him! I hate him!' Jane cursed Vincent in her mind as she continued running.

"Jane!!! Wait!" Tatsumi called out, chasing after her. Despite his efforts, Jane paid no attention.

All she could think of was to get away from the place… distancing herself from Vincent. Disgust for herself surged within her, and the haunting memories of her traumatic experience with Vincent resurfaced. She was shaken, on the brink of a breakdown.

'I hope this is just a lie!' Jane denied to accept it.

The ugly memories in her past ntensified the emotional turmoil she felt. She quickened her pace, a desperate attempt to outrun the shadows of her past.

As Jane reached the headquarters' exit, the hot afternoon air embraced her. She stumbled out into the open, gasping for breath. Tatsumi caught up, his concern etched across his face.

"Jane, are you alright?" Tatsumi inquired, his voice gentle but filled with worry. He was now holding her wrist.

She turned to Tatsumi, her eyes reflecting a mixture of pain and anguish. "I can't be near him. Not after everything," she whispered, the weight of her words hanging in the air.

Tatsumi was stupefied after seeing Jane's vulnerability for the first time. "Alright, let's get you somewhere safe… a place far away from that bastard. You don't have to face this alone." Sensing the gravity of her emotions, Tatsumi offered her a support. At that certain moment, he knew that Jane needed him and he couldn't allow her to be alone.

Nodding, Jane allowed Tatsumi to guide her away as they headed to his car. Tatsumi had series of questions in his mind– How did Jane and Vincent get involved with each other? Why is she in pain? What is she afraid of?

'Whatever it is… I will protect her. I will support her.' Tatsumi swore to himself.

Meanwhile, inside Tatsumi's office, Mr. Hiroshi and Vincent were left alone. The old man was giving Vincent a scruitinizing gaze.

"What have you done to my daughter? Proving that you are Mia's father doesn't mean my daughter is in love with you. All I can see in her eyes is pure hatred! Now, tell me the truth Vincent, what kind of evil scheme did you do to my daughter?"

"Perhaps, did you take advantage of her? Did you rape her?" Mr. Hiroshi confronted him directly. "You are in my territory, Vincent. You can't leave here unscatched. So it's best for you to tell me the truth!" Mr. Hiroshi's eyes narrowed as he pressed a concealed button beneath the armrest of his chair. The subtle click activated a mechanism, sending alert signal from the members of the Sawada Clan. Soon, several footsteps could be heard approaching the door. His men stationed themselves outside the office.

Vincent, seated across from Mr. Hiroshi, felt the atmosphere shift. The tension increased further when Mr. Hiroshi stood up. In his hands, he produced a sleek handgun, pointing it at Vincent.

"Now, Vincent," Mr. Hiroshi's voice cut through the air, cold and authoritative. "Start your confession. Don't you dare lie to me, I'll shoot you." Mr. Hiroshi threatened him.

However, amidst Mr. Hiroshi's threat, Vincent maintained an outward calmness, his demeanor remained composed. He met Mr. Hiroshi's intense gaze with a steady look. His hands rested on the table, fingers lightly tapping against the smooth surface.

"Mr. Hiroshi," Vincent began, his voice measured and unruffled. "I understand your concerns, and I assure you, nothing inappropriate has happened between me and Jane. There's a misunderstanding, and I'm more than willing to clarify."
