Chapter 440

George easily agreed to Quintis' request. Since he needed to attend a meeting, Quintis did not join Emily when she drove over to Alnewgo University. She was determined to unravel the mystery of the situation with her own hands.

When she arrived at the university, Emily was warmly welcomed by the staff with open arms. George had initially planned to accompany Emily to the infirmary himself, but Emily had rejected his offer. With Laura by her side, Emily made her way toward the infirmary that was bustling with activity.

Emily requested the infirmary supervisor to show her the surveillance tapes. After being given permission, the supervisor did as Emily asked and pulled up the tapes.

Fortunately, although there weren't many cameras in the infirmary itself, there were cameras installed in the corridors of every level of the building. The recordings had also been saved.

The supervisor scanned through the recordings. After searching for a while, they stopped at a scene where a man dressed in black entered the infirmary. Not long after, the same man exited the infirmary and left the area.

The supervisor informed Emily, "This was the last student who participated in the blood test."

Emily nodded and asked softly, "Do you remember his name?" Thɪs chapter is updated by Find[ɴ]ovel.net

"Vaguely. I think his last name was Holland," the supervisor answered.

Emily continued her line of questioning. "Can you recall his height and weight?"

"Hmm... He looked pretty average and had some acne on his face. His height is about five feet and two inches, not taller than five feet and five inches," the supervisor replied.

Emily pinned the supervisor with an unwavering stare. "Are you certain?"

The supervisor seemed to be slightly intimidated by Emily's bearing. He looked a little nervous, but he nodded his head and said in a steady tone, "I'm certain."

"Thank you! Thank you so much!" Emily exclaimed as tears leaked from the corners of her eyes.

But unlike before, these weren't tears of despair-they were tears of joy. The mystery had been unraveled at that moment. Although there wasn't any concrete confirmation, Emily was already certain of the truth.

The man who harbored such deep resentment for her... The man she had once disdained... There was no mistake this time, it was him. Jack was her dear Nicholas, her biological son.

If he wasn't, he wouldn't have the key. He wouldn't have known that she was searching for her missing child. He wouldn't have developed such a strong loathing for her.

Why else would he have found someone to participate in the blood test in his place? Jack was around six feet and three inches tall. How could he be any shorter than five feet and five inches? The only explanation that Emily could come up with was that Jack had managed to guess her identity and intentions, so he had found someone to pretend to be him.

Emily was astounded by the lengths Jack had gone to to hide his identity. But then she recalled how she had supported Quintis' endeavors to crush him. Quintis had used Sandalwood Group to take down Drakengard Games, even ousting Jack from the company altogether.

He must have been so upset and hopeless. He must have hated his own mother to the core. Jack had grown up in such a poor family. He had entered Alnewgo University through his own efforts and hard work. But his own mother had torn him down, causing him to lose everything.

Emily was sobbing uncontrollably. She had hurt Jack again and again. Could she still hope for him to forgive her?

"Nicholas, I'm sorry. I'm so sorry!" Emily cried in her heart that was filled with despair and fear.

But the emotion that Emily felt most strongly was joy. She had suffered through so many hardships and her efforts were finally bearing fruit. Perhaps God had seen her struggles and took pity on her, sending Nicholas back to her side as compensation.

Laura's phone started ringing. The investigator she had sent to Perthter City was calling.
