Chapter 1199
Blake was stunned as she watched Dalton in overalls playing with toys on the floor near the couch. She
had not paid much attention to him during the wedding, but now, observing closely, her eyes widened in
shock.
“Is Dalton really the one Mr. Jardin adopted from the doorstep of an orphanage? Not a child he had
with another woman? Or did Madelyn forget that she had a child?” Blake asked.
Margaret, taken aback by her questions, clarified, “Oh, no, no, you can’t just say things like that! Mr.
Jardin’s assistant can verify that Dalton was indeed adopted. He was brought home so Ms. Jent
wouldn’t feel lonely and had someone to accompany her. Dalton does resemble Mr. Jardin and Ms.
Jent, but it could just be a coincidence.) There are many unexplainable occurrences in the world.”
Blake asked, “May I hold him?”
As soon as she spoke, Dalton seemed to understand and toddled
over to Blake, extending his arms. His adorable behavior melted her
heart. Observing him closely, she could not help but exclaim, “His
eyes are just like Mr. Jardin’s, and the shape of his lips. If you cover
his eyes, doesn’t he look just like Madelyn? I wouldn’t believe anyone who says Dalton isn’t theirs.”
Margaret observed. “Ms. Dion, it seems Dalton is quite fond of you! In
this villa, aside from Mr. Jardin and Ms. Jent, he hasn’t let anyone
else hold him without making a fuss.”
Blake inquired further, “Has Mr. Jardin ever done a paternity test with
the child?”
Margaret replied, “Oh, Mr. Jardin would never consider such a thing. Besides, as Dalton was adopted,
he definitely doesn’t share blood
with Mr. Jardin.”
Blake frowned. “So, neither Madelyn nor Mr. Jardin ever did a test?”
Margaret confirmed. “Yes, that’s right.”
Blake suggested, “Is there any way to find a strand of Madelyn’s hair
in the house? Mr. Jardin’s would work too. I think it’s worth
investigating. What if there’s a blood relation?”
Margaret laughed off the suggestion. “Ms. Dion, you really have a wild imagination. I think it’s just a
coincidence.”
However, Margaret’s smile faded as she looked into Dalton’s clear,
watery eyes. She swallowed hard and said, “Well, it’s hard to say.”
Margaret had spent many days with Dalton and always sensed
something unusual about him. He would sometimes talk in his sleep, and during thunderstorms, he
would cry nonstop.
Shortly afterward, Margaret hurried upstairs and returned with a comb
Blake carefully wrapped the hair in a tissue. Contemplating plucking a
hair from Dalton, she hesitated, recalling Mr. Jardin’s stern novelbin
expression. Swallowing nervously, she said, “I-I can’t do it. Could you?” New chаpter av?ilable on

Margaret refused, “Mr. Jardin instructed that not a single hair of Dalton should be touched. If he finds
out, I’ll lose my year’s bonus. I’m
not risking it!”
Blake thought, ‘Even though Dalton might be related to Mr. Jardin by blood, he is, after all, Mr. Jardin’s
child, and his existence is of great significance.’
Ultimately, Blake devised a plan to use nail clippers to snip a tiny strand of Dalton’s hair without him
noticing.
