Having always observed Ariadne, Bonita was quick to sense her change.
‘So, I shouldn’t say that.’
Because Ariadne might get hurt?
…No, that’s not it. That wasn’t the reason.
She couldn’t say it because she feared that upon hearing it, Ariadne might revert to her old self.
Therefore, Bonita changed her words.
“No, it’s nothing.”
“Bonita.”
Ariadne too noticed Bonita’s change of topic and what she was about to say.
‘She already knew.’
Maybe the real ‘Ariadne’ had told her. Being a clever child, Bonita might have picked up on small hints.
In any case, Bonita and Ariadne looked nothing alike.
While Ariadne was like a glamorous rose and sharp as a cat, Bonita had a soft and adorable presence, like cotton candy.
Even considering Eloise’s looks, Bonita’s appearance would not change much even as an adult.
“Actually, my dear. There’s something”
Just as Ariadne was about to speak, a knock on the door interrupted her.
“Come in.”
Upon invitation, Luke’s servant arrived. It was Edward Serran of the Serran Barony, who had been working under Luke since graduating from the Imperial Academy five years ago.
“Miss Hilton, and young lady. The Duke has asked for both of you in the reception room. Please come quickly.”
Ariadne stood up swiftly.
“Is the result out?”
“Yes, it seems so.”
Hearing Ed’s words, Bonita’s eyes wavered. She hadn’t expected the results to come out so quickly.
Though Catherine had threatened the priests to finish within three hours, it had only been about two and a half hours.
“Mother.”
“Bonita, let’s go.”
Ariadne smiled as she took Bonita’s hand.
“With this, you really regain your rightful place.”
Ariadne’s face was so full of conviction as she said this that Bonita nodded as if enchanted.
Luke, who had been standing with his arms crossed, turned his head at the sound of the door opening. It was Miss Hilton and Bonita.
“Come here and sit.”
He spoke to Bonita in a gentle tone. Holding Ariadne’s hand, Bonita looked back and forth between the two before heading towards Luke.
Eventually, Bonita ended up sitting between Luke and Ariadne. Catherine, sitting next to Luke, furrowed her brow.
“Cough.”
The red-haired priest cleared his throat.
“I’ll now announce the results.”
Hearing this, Luke felt an odd dryness in his throat. It wasn’t out of curiosity for the result, but rather, it was an assured expectation.
“So, what’s the result?”
Catherine, unable to wait any longer, urged the priest. Dominick quickly opened his mouth under her intense gaze.
“Do you see the color of this liquid?”
“Color?”
At Luke’s question, Dominick shook the liquid, which had turned blue.
“We mixed both of your blood with specially treated holy water. If unrelated, it shows no reaction, but the closer the blood relation, the bluer it turns.”
The liquid in his hand was so deeply and vividly blue it couldn’t be bluer.
“Such a color indicates a relationship as close as siblings, or parent and child. The current reliability of the temple’s paternity tests is over 99%, so there’s no room for error.”
“So”
“Yes.”
He nodded.
“The lady is definitely the Duke’s biological child.”
It was an unequivocal affirmation.
“Of course.”
Luke muttered under his breath.
Ariadne internally agreed.
For them, it was hardly surprising. After all, they were the parents.
To conceive a child, at least one encounter is necessary.
With the daughter being definitely Eloise’s, the idea of her father being someone other than the Duke of Lysianthus was absurd.
Meanwhile, Bonita swallowed hard.
Despite the priest’s confident declaration, it still felt unreal to her, bringing only a sense of relief.
At the same time, a ticklish feeling stirred in her heart.
Bonita turned to look at Luke, who was quietly smiling.
Catching her gaze, Luke also turned his head towards her.
And Catherine.
She seemed frozen, like someone who had heard an impossible result. Her wrinkled lips were tightly pressed together.
“Mother?”
“…….”
