"But the question is why do they have to steal it? What"s inside the letter that it needs to be stolen?" she asked no one in particular because she was puzzled why this has become a big issue and news worthy at that. Then she frowned at the thought of the news.She knew that this is just a simple issue regarding Clark"s biological father but why make a big fuss about it.
"My daughter, if this letter proves that Clark is the future heir of the Howards and the Briggs" what will be the outcome? And if it really turned out that Clark is both your son, and then should you decide to get married which means strong alliance of both families, the effect will be securing the family and business ties. Our influence will go further than we could imagine. So anything could happen, anyone could devise evil plans. That is only my own point of view." John Howard proposes some possibilities to her daughter.
Ingrid hasn"t gotten the chance to react when she noticed that Mr. Vladimir took the last attaché case from one of his men. He opened it and showed them the worn out letter. Her eyes ceremoniously blink at the sight of this controversial letter.
The private investigator then handed it to Clifford. "Here it is, young master. The sought after letter. Luckily we traced the man who stole it and he is in our custody now."
Clifford takes it from Mr. Vladimir"s hands. Their fathers and Ingrid antic.i.p.ates this moment. Will this be a moment of truth or just a piece of a puzzle?
Ingrid felt impatient as Clifford slowly opened it. As for Clifford, he felt unprepared to read its content.
"Are you willing to read it or not? Cause if you are not, then just give it to me!" Ingrid glared at him. Clifford did not respond but his grip intensified and opened the letter.
His eyes moves fast as he reads, his brows furrowed and saying not a word.
In connection with these, we are pleased to inform you that after many attempts, the IVF is a success...
But further information regarding the benefactor remains highly confidential. Violator/s of such contract and/ or condition will be legally held liable and may face court charges.>
Clifford handed the letter to Ingrid, his face showed exasperation and he could not decipher what he feels right now. He is torn between insult and pride. He feels insulted because he felt that his sperm was for sale and pride because he met the exact demand of the benefactor. Other than that, it would not be an issue for him if he does not know who the benefactor was. But now that he knew...
"Well, you deposited or donated it, right? And besides someone needs it "badly"" his thoughts are betraying him. "...but hey! Looking at the other side, the report and this letter coincides but we still need more proof."
Ingrid finished reading the letter and found some loopholes in it. She waved the letter in the air and presented what she thought about it.
"This is not enough! We need to have a DNA test."
"Yeah, I agree and Ingrid is right, we need to perform the DNA Test." Clifford agreed.
"Then the DNA Test we shall do. We"ll go to the best DNA testing clinic in the world." Clint Briggs arranged.
He could not contain himself, everything falls perfectly in its place despite the fact that it was not "how" they planned but it turned more than amazing.
John and Clint looked at each other feeling satisfied; they haven"t exerted any effort but it just happened in a snap. Fortunately, the circ.u.mstances made a way. But Ingrid cut off their silent merriment.
"But I found some holes in this letter." Ingrid speaks out again.
"And what would that be?" Clifford examines her.
