Lazily Yours.

Chapter 550: Bastard

"So, tomorrow you two will have a DNA test with me. Gabi doesn't like blood, so she won't be joining us." Alfons had a kind smile on his face. "You can stay at the guest house until the result is out. Once we already know that we are indeed relatives, then we can have a small celebration with everyone in the mansion."

"Then does that mean we won't be able to visit the gardens until the result is out?" Clarisse asked.

"Unfortunately, no. Since we don't really know yet if you are indeed a relative. You can't just run around either as there will be security personnel everywhere."

"So you mean to say that if we try to go to the gardens, they will arrest us? Isn't that illegal?"

"Trespassing is illegal." Gabi chimed in. She used a napkin and elegantly dabbed it on her lips. "They have orders to shoot anyone that they think is suspicious. And they can do it as long as they are inside the gates of this mansion. So you should be careful."

"Oh. We understand." Mary Lan smiled. "However, my granddaughter also has a job. Is it alright for her to leave the mansion every now and then?"

"Yes, every guest house has its own gates that would lead you out of the property," Alfons said. Right now, he was forced to five into Gabi's demands and not invite his grandmother and cousin to the mansion. After all, the Gabi now isn't someone that he could just threaten.

It was good that Gabi didn't actually ask Kasper to kick them out earlier or it would be harder to make Clarisse and Gabi closer to each other. All he needed now is to wait for the DNA result, which will surely become positive since they were actually blood-related to Mary and Clarisse.

"That's great then," Mary said. "Anyway, the house is indeed elderly-friendly, so I am very happy to be able to stay there. It was even more luxurious than the hotel that we stayed at when we first arrive here."

"Oh, we have a few guesthouses around the mansion. The goal is to give our guests both privacy and the top luxury. We wanted them to feel special and at home at the same time."

'Speaking like the true owner,' Gabi thought as she continued eating her food

"Wow Mr. Alfons, you are really nice. I didn't expect you to be this kind."

"Please, Clarisse, call me Alfons. I am just a nobody in this house. There is no need to be formal."

"Huh? Why are you saying that?"

Alfons just gave Clarisse a smile. "Anyway, Mr. Jonathan said that you didn't bring any clothes with you? Since you will be staying in this place for a few days, why not buy some more clothes in the mall?"

"Really? That would be nice! Grandmother would need a few of her medicines too."

"Speaking of medicines, would it be alright if I let some of the doctors that I know to examine, Miss Lan?" Alfons uttered. "They were specialists in cancer so I am very confident in their skills."

"Of course. There is no problem, right, grandmother?"

"Ah?"

Gabi smiled inwardly. Earlier, this woman said that they don't need any second opinion and yet, they easily agreed to have Alfons recommend a doctor for them. Why are they being so obvious? Did they really think she was dumb? She noticed that Alfons keep on side eying her reaction.

Did he think that she would intervene and offer her own group of doctors? That would be a waste of money.

"Ah, Gabi, don't you have a few clothes that you can give Clarisse?" Alfons said.

"No."

"Ah?"

"We are not of the same size."

'Oh Yes. You don't have the same size. Indeed. You are right, then why don't you accompany her shopping? It would be a pleasant experience for you too. It would be good to have someone your age shop with you so you could familiarize yourself with the latest trends."

"Can't."

"Why?" Alfons asked.

"I am busy."

"Miss Gabrielle, please don't misunderstand. This is just my first time in this city and I am a bit unfamiliar with everything. Plus, we are the same age. If you are busy studying then, I can just help you with that. I might not look like it but I am top of my class and even studied economics. I am also good with math."

'Economics?' Was it just a coincidence that she studied economics? "No. I'm good. If you are lost, you can easily take a cab home."

"But "

"Gabi, since you are busy during the weekdays, then why not do it on the weekend? I can see that you have been wearing white all this time. It looked really pure, but I think the newer styles would look good on you too."

Gabi raised her eyebrow at Alfons. Then she smiled. Why was he making it too obvious that he wanted her to bond with Clarisse? Is he really dumb? "No. I am busy earning money. I have no time to think about fashion."

"Gabi, you are just a twenty-year-old girl. How could you not care about fashion?"Alfons chuckled. "Aiyo how about this? I will personally accompany you and Clarisse while you shop. Is that fine with you?"

"No." Gabi got up. "I think earning money is important. I already look pretty. There is no need to overcompensate." She looked at the grandmother and granddaughter pair. "I will leave first. Spencer led them out of the mansion once they were done eating. I don't want strangers walking around my mother's house."

"Understood, young miss."

Since Gabi was already walking away from them, she didn't see the anger in Alfons eyes. He clenched his fist, his knuckles turning white. Every time he tried to get close to Gabi, she would rub it in his face that this house is hers, that the money is hers, that she was earning money. It was as if, she was purposely making him look like the poor little bastard that he once was!
