The lawyer arrived quickly, followed by Wang Yi.

The revelations from her ex-boyfriend clearly left her at a loss, visibly more haggard than the last time we met, especially since she was pregnant.

The four of us sat together peacefully for the first time.

The lawyer professionally explained the distribution of Li Wei's inheritance again, but Li's mother held the paternity test in her hand as a talisman:

"Let me tell you, I don't understand any of this! Lin Shuang, this is the paternity test of the child in Yi's belly, proving that the child in Yi's belly is Li Wei's, so all the money belongs to the grandson!"

Li's mother raged, slamming the paternity test on the table.

The lawyer was speechless:

"Madam, only the paternity test between Li Wei and Ms. Wang's child in her belly is valid evidence. The test between grandmother and grandson is invalid."

Upon hearing the lawyer's words, Li's mother's eyes widened.

Fearing that Li's mother might not understand the lawyer's words, I kindly explained in plain language:

"In other words, this test can only prove that this is your grandson, but you have several sons, so who knows which son this belongs to?"

"Yes, Mr. Li Wei has been cremated, so you cannot conduct a paternity test. Therefore, you can never prove whether the child in Ms. Wang's belly is Mr. Li Wei's biological child."

The lawyer and I echoed each other, and Wang Yi and Li's mother's faces turned increasingly grim:

"Impossible, impossible!"

Li's mother couldn't accept that all her efforts had been in vain for so long.

"Madam, according to the law, you can receive 750,000 of Li Wei's estate. My client, Ms. Lin, considers your age and the need to support your younger son, so the property purchased by Li Wei after marriage will be given to you and will not be taken back."

The lawyer dutifully stated the facts, disregarding Li's mother's emotions, and just laid out the truth.

"This is impossible! My son has so much money, and I only get a little over 700,000? Are you kidding me?" Li's mother slammed the table hard, stood up abruptly, and said, "Oh, I also have this!"

Suddenly, as if remembering something, Li's mother began searching through a stack of documents in her hand, took out one after a long search:

"This! This is the paternity test between the child in Yi's belly and Xiao Jia. I've seen it, and the similarity is even higher!"

Unexpectedly, Li's mother suddenly produced another paternity test.

In a corner we hadn't noticed, Wang Yi's face turned pale, almost colorless.

"I've seen it, the similarity is 99.99%! I deliberately had an amniocentesis done for Yi, and for safety, I had one done for Xiao Jia as well. This can prove that they are from our Li family, right? Much higher similarity than mine!"

Li's mother seemed possessed, pointing vigorously with the paternity test in her hand.

99.99%, the sudden turn of events left both the lawyer and me dumbfounded.

Who and who? The child in Wang Yi's belly and Li Jia's?

How much similarity? 99.99%?

Can a nephew and uncle have such a high similarity?

Li's mother's words and the clearly stated similarity in the test seemed to be telling us one fact - the child Wang Yi is carrying belongs to Li Jia.

Wang Yi seemed to finally react, quickly stood up, tried to remain calm, and attempted to take the paternity test from Li's mother:

"Auntie, please don't get agitated, sit down first, don't harm your health."

Wang Yi's face was grim, trying to rush through this situation before we could react.

My lawyer, with over ten years of experience, perhaps encountered such a situation for the first time, his expression shifting from the previous calmness of handling matters impartially to a hint of excitement:

"Wait, Li Wei's mother, are you sure it's 99.99% similarity in the paternity test?"

The lawyer's words were faster than Wang Yi's actions; before Wang Yi could take the test away, he asked.

Thinking there might be a turning point, Li's mother didn't notice Wang Yi's increasingly pale face beside her, almost collapsing to the ground:

"Yes, 99.99%! Look, it's written here!"

Excitedly flipping it open, Li's mother pointed to the final similarity for us to see, her face beaming with joy.

But the lawyer's next words made her completely lose her smile:

"Only a father-son relationship would have a 99.99% similarity in a paternity test."

With one sentence, the once lively living room suddenly fell into an eerie silence. Li's mother stood frozen in place, Wang Yi's face turned ashen, sinking into a chair. For a moment, the room was silent.

"Pfft."

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to."

I couldn't help it; I burst out laughing.

This apology was sincere; I just couldn't hold it in. Li's mother, who had thought she was clever all her life, in her fifties, had such an absurd ethical situation happen in their family.
