The press conference descended into chaos. The air was filled with the attendees'' gasps and
discussions about the surprise reveal.
"Is that the paternity test result for Javier and Betty Beckett? Is she not his daughter? This is straight
out of a telenov! I didn''t see thising."
"Not long ago, Javier Beckett was defending Betty. Now, it''s revealed that she is not his daughter. It
feels so surreal!"
"Look at his face. He looks like he has just eaten poop. I bet he has just found out about the truth."
"I would have killed myself if I found out the daughter I raised for 20 years was not mine."
"He was in the dark when Sophia Kirkman killed his beloved wife. He remained clueless when he was
cuckolded for years. What''s wrong with him?"
"Probably blinded by love, eh? I''m surprised he could keep that crazy woman, Sophia Kirkman, around
for years. He most certainly has... unusual patience."
The mocking and disdainful remarks attacked Javier. He stared vacantly at the result on the screen as
all color drained from his previously smug face.
He rubbed his eyes hard, but the writing remained the same. The fact that he was excluded as Betty''s
biological father gued him. He reyed it over and over in his mind.
"Mr. Javier!" Neil ran over in panic. "I tried turning off the screen, but it wouldn''t work! I''m sure someone
is behind this. We need to stop the conference as soon as possible. From what I''ve heard, the entrance
and exit of the hotel were swarmed by other media who caught wind of the news.
"I''ve dispatched security to handle the media. You must leave now!"
"Is Betty not my daughter? Is the paternity test result genuine?" Javier fixed his bloodshot eyes on the
screen. No matter how Neil tugged at him, he would not move, as he was numbed and in shock.
"The authenticity doesn''t matter. You cannot publicly admit that Ms. Betty isn''t your daughter, or the
statement will leave a stain on your name. You need to keep this to yourself, even if it''s unptable. It''s
still better than bing aughingstock forever!"
Javier acknowledged Neil''s solution as his best option for the time being. Feigning indignation, Javier
turned around to address the media. "Someone is trying to nder the Beckett family. The paternity
test result is fake. I urge everyone not to fall for it!" "Is that so?" Jasper squinted at his dad. "Javier, how
could you choose to defend Betty at this moment? She is not even rted to us. Are you really going to
tolerate being cheated on by Sophia, just to protect your pride?"
With that, Jasper raised the test result in the air, disying it to the watching eyes. He stated, "So, the
paternity test result on the screen is fake, huh? Well, the result in my hand is authentic! Betty is
definitely not your daughter. She is not a Beckett!"
In the next moment, he tossed the papers onto Javier''s pale face. What Jasper had done was parade
him naked in front of the world, turning him into a joke.

In the middle of his messy thoughts, he recalled the moment from years ago, when Sophia showed up
at his ce heavily pregnant and crying pitifully as she confessed how much she had missed him. She
alsomented all the difficulties she had faced during the pregnancy.
"Javier, I''m pregnant with your child. You can dump me if you want, but how could you abandon your
flesh and blood?"
