After all, the Old Master had defended someone he knew was in the wrong and was also very dissatisfied that Nell had forced Celine to apologize.
Why did he suddenly change his tune today?
Nell felt that there was something strange about this, so she refused without even thinking about it.
However, she had just turned down the Old Master when Harriet Brockman called her.
She was not familiar with Harriet but because she was closer to Joseph Garrett, and Harriet was Joseph’s wife, their relationship was naturally a little better.
Harriet called her because she wanted to go to the spa together with her.
This made Nell even more surprised.
After asking, she found that it was a chain store that Harriet had opened. They recently introduced a new massage technique which was said to be very comfortable and had very good health benefits for women.
However, Harriet just had to invite her at this time.
Nell instantly felt that something was up.
It must be because she had refused Old Master Garrett’s invitation that he told Harriet to invite her in another way.
Nell did not know if she should laugh or cry. Although she was suspicious about why the Garretts were beating around the bush like this, she did not think much about it.
Since they were so enthusiastic, it would not be good of her to reject them again, lest they call her again later. Thus, she agreed to Harriet’s invitation.
That afternoon, the two came to a first-rate beauty parlor. After they had changed, two masseuses came in.
Both of them were wearing work clothes and masks. Nell noticed that one of them looked familiar but she could not be sure who it was because of the mask.
However, she did not think much about it. After all, there was no way she knew the people who worked for her.
The masseuse’s skill was indeed very good. Nell’s body had always felt a little cold after jumping into the water two days ago. She knew that she might have caught a cold and took some anti-cold medicine at home, and was feeling slightly drowsy now.
Being massaged with such a good technique made her even sleepier.
Therefore, it did not take long before she had fallen asleep.
She slept without any reservations and did not know how shocked the person who was massaging her was feeling.
It took more than an hour to finish the spa session.
Nell was woken up by Harriet.
She had never thought that she would be comfortable enough to fall asleep and smiled in embarrassment.
Feeling that the service of this shop was good and the technique used was also great, she got a membership card and made an appointment to come back next time before leaving the beauty parlor satisfied.
She did not notice that as soon as she left, the masseuse who had massaged her immediately changed her clothes and drove away from a different exit.
At the same time, in the Garrett residence.
Old Master Garrett sat in his own room and looked at the gray-haired old woman in front of him.
“Are you sure you saw the birthmark on her back?”
The old woman was known as Aunt Xenia. She was also the old maid who had been by Juliette’s side. She had taken care of the child for a while in the past, so she knew the child’s characteristics very well.
She nodded. “Yes, I’m sure.”
“What about her hair?”
“I have it too.”
Aunt Xenia said and took a small transparent bag out of her pocket, revealing some strands of hair in it.
Old Master Garrett said solemnly, “Take it for a DNA test. Get Celine Jenning’s done as well.”
Aunt Xenia nodded but felt confused after thinking about it.
“We’ve already tested Celine Jenning’s DNA in the beginning. I even personally supervised it, so there shouldn’t be any problem. How could it be fake?”
Old Master Garrett smiled coldly.
“Perhaps it was tampered with along the way or maybe there’s some other secret? In any case, test it again and make sure you’re watching every step of the way. Never give anyone a chance to interfere to ensure the authenticity of the results, understand?”
She already knew that Nell was Juliette Garrett’s real child.
Sylvia Walker had told her this secret a long time ago.
The necklace Nell’s mother had left behind, that she had been so determined to get back, was seemingly an ordinary necklace but it was a token.
At that time, Sylvia had accidentally learned of this secret and swapped the necklace, replacing the blue gemstone with a red one.
Then, she secretly made arrangements for Celine to replace Nell and take over her identity.
However, this secret was very well hidden. She had thought that it would remain undiscovered for the rest of her life.
She had never thought that it would be exposed so soon!
Celine smiled coldly.
‘Nell, oh, Nell, why are you so annoying?
‘I really didn’t plan on killing you. After all, I don’t want to get myself into trouble.
‘However, it seems that you insist on getting in my way no matter where you go. It was like that in Jincheng and it’s like that in the capital now too.
‘Why do you get to be a precious and darling daughter while I have to be the soil under someone’s feet?
‘Hah! They want to verify it?
‘What’s the point of verifying anything if the person is dead?
‘If that’s the case, then you don’t have to continue living anymore!
‘Stop being a thorn in my side and getting in the way of my future.’
Celine’s lips quirked up in a wicked smile. She took out her phone and made a call.
“Our secret has been discovered. Now, I need to discuss with you what kind of death to give her!”
