Chapter 79 The Children Are Not Edwin’s
“Mr. Keaton…” the driver said with a trembling voice.
“Shut up.”
Edwin’s cold tone silenced the driver immediately.
The driver didn’t want to make Edwin any angrier, so he kept mute and prayed that they could get
back peacefully.
Before long, Edwin arrived home.
It was at that time when Melina called.
Edwin frowned and answered the call unwillingly, “Hello, Grandma.”
“Edwin, would you come to my place for dinner tonight?” said Melina.
“Grandma, I’m a little tired today. Maybe another day.”
Melina hesitated for a moment before she finally said in a concerned tone, “Edwin, I don’t want to
interfere with your private affairs.
“But
you
have to mind your behaviors. Don’t get yourself involved in scandals.
“Now that you’ve decided to marry Katelyn, you should keep away from Julianna. Don’t get yourself in
the middle of a scandal. That’ll damage the reputation of our family as well.”
Melina saw the photo of Edwin and Julianna kissing at the airport.
After all, the Keaton family was the richest in Philadelphia.
They were naturally put under the spotlight and therefore must mind their every single move.
Although Melina didn’t like Katelyn, she valued her promises. She had never left any of her words.
unfulfilled.
Since she had promised the Reece family that Edwin would marry Katelyn, she wouldn’t allow him.
to mess around with another woman.
Hearing this, Edwin took in a deep breath and said, “I know, Grandma.”
“I asked you to bring Julianna’s children to me. It’s been so long, why haven’t they come yet?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtEdwin was irritated when Melina switched the topic to talk about Julianna.
He pursed his lips and said, “She said that her children were not mine. So I think there’s no need for
you to meet them.”
Hearing this, Melina fell silent.
“If there’s nothing else, I have to go. I’ll go to your place to join you for dinner this weekend.”
“Alright then.”
After hanging up, Edwin let out a long sigh of relief and lit a cigarette.
He was still skeptical of Julianna’s words.
However, he was extremely angry with her attitude. When he thought of the affair she had with Glenn, he
felt even more frustrated.
The next day.
A Rolls-Royce pulled off at the gate of the Reece Group.
It was Melina. She came to see Julianna.
In Julianna’s office.
Julianna was somewhat surprised that Melina came here for her.
She greeted Melina politely and respectfully, “Hello, Melina. What brings you here today?”
Melina was wearing a classic dress, a pair of round frame glasses with a fancy eyewear chain, and an
emerald necklace and bracelet matching each other.
She looked elegant and noble in her outfit.
“Julie, long time no see. How are you doing?”
Julianna was a little confused by her intention. She answered, “Well, not bad. Is there anything I can help
you with?”
Six years ago, Melina was extremely in favor of her marrying Edwin.
During the two years of their marriage, Melina treated her quite well. Therefore, Julianna was also very
respectful to her and still called her Melina even though she had divorced Edwin.
Melina sat down on the sofa and looked at Julianna with a kind yet serious expression. “I just come by
and see if everything’s fine with you.”
“Please have some tea.” Julianna served her a cup of tea nervously.
“No need. Sit down please,” Melina smiled lightly, calming Julianna down.
Although Melina was the guest here, she looked like taking control of everything.
Julianna still felt a little uneasy and sat down on the far end of the sofa. “Melina, if there is anything you
need me for, please just say it.”
Melina paused for a few seconds and smiled kindly. “I would like to know more about your
children.”
“Melina, I have explained clearly to Edwin about my children.”
Melina just gazed at Julianna quietly.
Her eyesight was friendly, but somehow it made Julianna feel like being scanned by an X-ray.
“Julie, this is not something you can joke about. If the children are Edwin’s, Edwin, and the entire Keaton
family would take the responsibility.”
Julianna twitched her mouth and said, “I’m sorry, Melina. But you must have misunderstood something.
My children have nothing to do with Edwin.”
“Whatever you say, I want to figure it out by myself.”
“How?”
“Let me see them. I want to take them to have a paternity test with Edwin. If they really are not
Edwin’s…”
Julianna interrupted her, “I’m sorry, but they’re my children. You have no right to take them.
away.”
“No, don’t take me wrong. I will not take them away from you.
“I’m also a mother. I know how much you want to protect your children. I guarantee you that even if they
are Edwin’s offspring, I will never separate them from you.
“You can rest assured about this. But if you insist on refusing, I won’t push you, and I’ll think of
some other ways.”
Melina’s words were gentle yet so firm that couldn’t be turned down.
Julianna frowned slightly and pondered for a few seconds. “If you insist, I can show you something.
“Melina, please wait a moment.”
Then, Julianna went directly to a corner of the office.
She opened the safe and took a folder from it.
“Please take a look.” Julianna handed the folder to Melina.

“What is this?” Melina gave Julianna a puzzled look.
3/5
“This is the birth certificate of my children in the hospital and the result of the paternity test.”
Melina directly opened the folder after hearing this.
Inside were two official documents.
One was the birth certificate of the children stamped with the seal of the hospital. And in the column of
parents’ information were Julianna and Glenn’s names.
The other was a report of a paternity test that showed that the probability of Glenn being the children’s
father was 99%.
It meant that Glenn was truly their biological father.
Melina read these two documents through.
She adjusted her glasses to hide her slight disappointment.
“If you don’t bother, you can take these documents to any institution for a recheck. The certificates
are absolutely authentic and valid.
“So, can you believe that they were not Edwin’s now?” asked Julianna.
She had spent a great fortune on faking these two documents so that her children’s birthday would
appear three months later than their real birthday.
It took Melina a while to regain her ration.
“Yes, I can now. Sorry to bother you today.”
Melina stood up and prepared to leave as she spoke.
“Don’t mind. I’m glad that we make things clear,” said Julianna.
Melina walked towards the office door. When she reached the door, she suddenly stopped. “There’s still
one thing I would like to remind you.”
“I’m all ears.”
“You once married Edwin. But he is now getting married to your sister.
“This is not very decent, to be honest. Therefore, I hope you can keep a distance from him.”
Julianna smiled indifferently, “Please don’t take me wrong.
“I’ve never thought of getting close to Mr. Keaton.
“As long as he can stay away, I will not disturb him.
“Also, if it won’t trouble you too much, I hope that you will advise him not to obstacle the normal
operation of the Reece Group out of no reason.”
