Mr. Nelson Winning His Ex-wife's Heart

Chapter 111

Chelsea frowned slightly, "Hospital? Did something happen? What's wrong?"

The last time she checked, Hilton had been healthy and had rarely been to the hospital.

Hilton snorted, "You'll know when you get here. I'm seriously sick and need a lot of money."

Chelsea saw through his act at once. He only wanted money from her so he had come up with the perfect excuse. He probably was not sick at all. Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.

But she still played along. "Okay, which hospital are you in? I'll come over."

Hilton gave her the name of a hospital without skipping a beat. It was the hospital where Chris worked. A smile appeared on Chelsea's face when she realized that.

She could ask him for a favor then.

After hanging up, Chelsea dressed up and went out. The first she did when she got to the hospital was to find Chris.

Seeing her, Chris was surprised. "Chelsea, what can I do for you? Is something wrong?"

Chelsea went straight to the point and said, "My father is in this hospital. And I need you to help me find out what on earth is wrong with him. I'm afraid that he's scheming with his attending doctor and they will lie to me on purpose."

Chelsea knew Hilton's personality. Shame was not something he was aware of. If Hilton wanted money

from her, making up a serious illness was something he was capable of doing.

Chris agreed to help her. And after offering her a seat, he called one of his colleagues to inquire on the matter.

As he hung up, Chris shrugged while internally questioning the audacity some people had. "It's just like you suspected. Well, he is indeed sick. But it's just a common disease in the elderly. He doesn't need to be hospitalized from what I heard, but his attending doctor said that he insisted on it and there was nothing he could do."

Chelsea nodded. "Okay, I see. Thank you so much."

Chris smiled and replied, "No need for that."

Chelsea kept silent for a while and hesitated a bit as she said, "Umm, there's actually one more thing I want to ask for your help with."

"What is it?" asked Chris curiously.

Chelsea spoke up. "Since he's already in hospital, I was hoping you could arrange a paternity test for me and him."

"Paternity test? Do you suspect that he is not your biological father?" Chris' eyebrows shot up in surprise at the plot twist.

Chelsea shook her head and replied, "No, not suspecting. I'm sure. I just need solid proof."

She had never understood why Hilton and Garry didn't treat her as part of the family, and hadn't been close to her at all while she was growing up.

Their eyes had been full of disgust everytime they looked at her. Never once had there been a single ounce of love in them.

Then she finally found out that she was not Hilton's biological daughter and it all made sense.

Even her deceased mother was not her real mother.

Her mother had told her everything before she died. That day, she said to Chelsea with difficulty, "I'm so sorry my darling. I can't protect you anymore, but I have something important to tell you. A secret."

"Mom, what do you mean? What secret?" Chelsea cried bitterly at that time, fully aware of what was happening.

"After my death, they will definitely plan to extort money from you, they might even sell you. You don't have to be polite to them, and you don't have to listen to them because of family affection you hold. Don't be afraid of them. Because you are not related to them in any way. Not by blood and certainly not by family bonds."

That was when Chelsea got to know that she was actually the child of her mother's friend back when she was young. The girl fell in love with a man, but she couldn't get married to him.

After she gave birth to Chelsea, she got severely depressed and passed away after entrusting the baby to someone else.

That was why Hilton and Garry disliked her so much. Because when they looked at her they only saw a burden. They probably thought of how much it would cost to raise one more child.

But fortunately, her mother was gentle and kind.

Even though she was not her real daughter, Chelsea had never felt it. Her mother raised her as her own.

As he heard that, Chris was stunned. He had never known what Chelsea's background was like, and presumably Edmund didn't know either.
