Chapter 851 Deep Bond Between Siblings

"They were about the same age, at most four or five years' difference. We never paid any attention to
that.

Who knew it would turn out like this."

They never expected that things would come to this.

"So you were clear that Angelina was not from the Gu family?"

Because of what had happened before, the Li family didn't have it in them to lie in front of Jeremy.

"Yes, exactly.

Ah, no. We just happened to know that a while ago.

Well, we stumbled across something when we cleaned up her room last time. Since none of us could
decipher it, we took it to the hospital and asked a doctor to shed some light on this matter. We got the
shock of our lives when we learned it was a paternity test."

"Where is it? I want to see it," Jeremy said.

"Yes, just go and get it," Jeremy's assistant urged. Jacob gestured Hannah to fetch the paternity test
report.

Hannah went inside the bedroom and soon came out carrying it. Quickly, she handed the paper to
Jeremy and said, "Here it is."

Jeremy opened it and his eyes ran over the paper.

It was indeed true.



In the corner, he noticed the time. It was done almost at the same time that he was at the hospital.

Handing the paper to his assistant, he said briefly, "Give it back to them."

With that, Jeremy left, barely looking back.

His footsteps wobbled.

Nobody knew what to make of his reaction.

"President Jeremy..."

The assistant looked at Jeremy with concern.

But Jeremy only quickened his pace and soon he was out of their sight.

The assistant took out a check for one million dollars and said, "Here is one million. I want all of you to
keep this a secret. Even Angelina shouldn't know that we came here. Just treat her the way you treated
her before."

"Fine, okay."

The Li family took the check and watched the assistant leave as well.

Mulling over the assistant's words, neither of them understood it.

As Jeremy and his assistant got out of the Li apartment, Jacob cursed and became a little irritated, "So,
now that they know Angelina is not a member of the Gu family, I doubt whether she can extract money
from them from this day on."

"It seems so," Tomas said, agreeing to it.



"But how did the Gu family know? Tell me something. Is any of you that snitch?" With his doubtful eyes,
Jacob gazed at Thomas and Hannah.

"How could you even doubt that? Angelina is like our bank from whom we exract money. I am not dumb
enough to kill the goose that lays the golden egg!"

Hannah just cast an uneasy look at Jacob. He believed she didn't have the guts to make such a rash
decision.

"Did you listen carefully to that assistant's last sentence? What did he mean? He asked us to treat
Angelina the same way we treated her before."

Does that mean we can still extort a small fortune from her?" Jacob's eyes glowed.

"I suppose so," Thomas echoed.

"Then what are we waiting for? I guess that brother of hers won't kick her out so soon. We need to
make use of this opportunity to get more money from Angelina."

"That's a good idea."

Jacob took out his cell phone and began to text Angelina.

Jacob's text message was nothing more but a conundrum to Angelina.

Strangely, it seemed Jeremy was deliberately distancing himself from her.

'What is going on?

Is it because my intentions have become too obvious? Or has Jeremy noticed something already?

No, it can't be!' She finally shrugged off these thoughts.



She had been very discreet about it. There was no way Jeremy knew anything.

Consoling herself was the only way to go now.

She didn't know why, but lately she had been having negative thoughts. Her intuition told her
something bad was about to happen.

Ever since Angelina saw Ashley, she had been feeling this way.

She had already known that Ashley was a member of the Gu family.

And she was nothing but a worthless impostor.

Even so, she would not give up without a fight.

She still had other ways to reach her goal.

Ignoring Jacob's message, Angelina dialed Jeremy's number.

The first time she tried, no one attended to the call.

Determined to reach him, Angelina tried again.

To her relief, this time the call was answered. "Hello? Brother, where are you now? Why aren't you
home yet?"

They had been living together in one house since Jeremy found his missing younger sister.

It was true that Jeremy was supposed to be home by now.

It was way past his work hours.

Angelina had specially made a telephone call to his company to ask about Jeremy's schedule.



She couldn't understand why he was away.

"Brother, why aren't you saying anything? Wait for me to pick you up. Just stay where you are, okay?"

After getting the address, Angelina got ready to pick him up.

Belinda interrupted as she saw Angelina getting ready to leave, "Angelina, where are you going?"

"I'm going to pick Jeremy up."

"Look at the time, Angelina! He is an adult who is capable of returning on his own. You'd better not go
out at this hour."

Angelina smiled, "It's okay, mom. That place is quite close. He is waiting for me so I don't want to be
late. Everything will be fine, just relax."

"Well, if you insist. Look at the deep bond between you siblings," Belinda beamed a smile.

After hearing Angelina's words, Belinda had no choice but to let her go.

Angelina took the car key and ran out.

Meanwhile, Jeremy had been on pins and needles ever since he left the Li family's apartment.

Angelina was not his sister.

But he had spent all these years treating her like one. He had been spoiling her with gifts and
surprises.

And now, he had the shock of his life. He couldn't help but wonder where his actual sister was.

His brotherly heart wondered if she was in some kind of trouble.



'What if she is leading a difficult life?' he thought and his heart ached.

These thoughts overwhelmed Jeremy's mind, giving him a severe head ache.

'It's all my fault!

I have no one but myself to blame.

I am the one who brought the wrong person home.

What sort of a brother am I?' he cursed himself.

"President." His assistant looked at Jeremy's dispirited face and felt bad. Jeremy was a good man who
deserved to be happy. But today's events had turned his life upside down.

"You may take your leave now,"

Jeremy said, not looking up.

"But Mr. President, how can I leave you alone?" The assistant looked at Jeremy as his eyes began to
brim with concern.

He couldn't leave Jeremy here.

"Angelina is coming to pick me up," Jeremy said in a cold voice.

It was odd hearing him refer to her like this.

In the past, whenever there was a call from Angelina, he would be happy. He called her with all sorts of
pet names.

"All right."



After the assistant left, Jeremy took a seat at a milk shop nearby.

Sitting there in an open area, his handsome face, maturity and steadiness only attracted lots of eyes on
him.

Many young women turned around and rested their eyes on him. However, an unapproachable air
exuding from Jeremy just stopped them from getting near him and starting a chat.
