Chapter 243 The DNA Test

After the words left her lips, Helen immediately covered her mouth and added, "No, no. That can't be Jamie. It's definitely not him."

John's heart was in a predicament as well. Although the results of the DNA test was yet to be out, his instincts told him that the reason Selena went to the hut in the middle of the night had to have something to do with Jameson.

Hence, he marched to the basement. Selena stood up hurriedly when she saw him. "Are the results out yet? That body isn't Jamie, right? That can't be him, right?"

"What were you doing there in the middle of the night?" he asked in an interrogative manner.

"I was there because I received a call telling me to go there. The caller said that I would replace some clues to Jamie's whereabouts. That's why I went," Selena replied honestly, thinking that she had no need to lie.

"Why didn't you contact me when you received that call and tell me about it?" he asked in an icy tone, as though he had already crucified her as the killer. Honestly, he didn't like her to begin with.

The fact that she was able to get to her position today proved that she was extraordinarily scheming. In addition, his impression of her worsened because of that incident when Megan fell on the staircase and was sent to the ICU after suffering a miscarriage.

"I... I wanted to let you know about it initially, but the guy was really crafty. When he called me, he used a hidden number and also a voice changer in addition to mentioning that I have to go alone. I was afraid of alerting him and worried that you might mess up the situation because you're worried about Jamie. That's why I didn't tell you."

Staring fixedly at her, John was unsure if he should believe her words. All he knew was that Jameson's disappearance was undeniably connected with her.

"I know you're suspicious of me, Mr. Fowler, and your impression of me must be bad because of everything that happened before. Still, you have to look at the situation clearly and not be confused by everything in front of you. Think about it carefully, why would I bring Jamie out if I really planned to do something against him?"

Trying her best to put her words together, Selena knew that John's sudden appearance behind her was because he had been following her. It could even be that he was suspicious of her for a long time now but never showed it.

I can't be a suspect, she thought. At least not now because I still have to look for Jamie. Everything would be too late if she missed the best timing for his search.

"I was the one who asked for Niall's help to bring the boys out for hiking. In the end, he disappeared during my watch. Do you think I'd be that stupid? If I really wanted to make a move, I'd definitely pick another timing so that it has nothing to do with me, and I think you know that I'm capable of that."

The edge of John's lips twitched; there was some sense in her analysis, but there was another possibility to the situation.

That was, Selena decided to risk it and did this on purpose as to give others the impression that she wouldn't harm Jameson during her watch. That way, she would seem less suspicious.

Right now, John didn't dare to make any judgement, fearing that he would make a mistake.

"So this must be a trap, Mr. Fowler. Jamie is alive for sure, and that body won't be him."

The next second, someone burst into the room in a huff, exclaiming, "It's out, the results are out! The test results are here, Mr. Fowler!"

All of a sudden, Selena felt her heart at her throat, and even John, who had been through numerous storms in his life, seemed at a loss as he uttered, "Is it Young Master Jameson?"

The man who burst into the room was suddenly afraid to say a thing. Then, he passed the result of the DNA test to him. With a trembling hand, he took the paper, and when he saw the words written, he squeezed his eyes shut in pain, two streams of tears running down his face.
