Ex-Husband Wants Badly to Resume Their Marriage
Chapter 448: It Was Still BurningUpon hearing this question, Talon Beale did not have much reaction and started to speak calmly, "since you have asked, I would
want to tell you the truth that Natalia is my adopted child.
When I was hospitalised for 3 months and upon waking up from my coma, I realized that all my beloved ones were all gone in
the explosion.
I have gone to all the orphanages in the city but there was no whereabouts of you.I thought you and your mother could have
passed on.
That was when I met Natalia who was about your age.
Not knowing why she was abandoned by her parents, I took pity on her and adopted her.
Not long after, Natalia had fallen ill.
When she woke up, she had lost all her memory.
Throughout the years, I have always taken Natalia as my own daughter.
I would not want her to know this hence nobody has known the truth.
About why I kept on stubbornly thinking that Natalia was my daughter when you showed up with Doris' mementos; that is
because I didn't believe you, nor did I want to hurt Natalia.However, since your adopted father has already mentioned about it, I
have no excuses but to believe it."
As he kept droning, the guests had already lost interest, but they were still expecting a different response.
When Talon Beale had finished talking, he looked at Sharon Allyson, "Do you have any questions?"
Sharon Allyson replied, "Well, you must have already investigated Josh Allyson for who he is, haven't you?"
Talon Beale squinted his eyes and remained silent.
"An avid gambler who had been chased by loan sharks daily with tonnes of lies, could have convinced Mr Beale with a few
words? Won't you be worried that we could have teamed up to get our hands on Beale Group?"
After a while, Talon Beale sighed, "Sharon, I know that you hate me and it would not be of much help with my words.I do not
expect you to forgive me but I do wish you well."
"Mr Beale, don't you mention it."
Sharon Allyson said, "I have something here that you might be interested in, Mr Beale" Sharon Allyson raised the paper bag in
Talon Beale did not know what her intention was: "Sharon, let's get a place to discuss further."
Meanwhile, a mellow yet powerful voice pierced through the crowd: "What paternity test? I would like to have a look"
Just then, Mr.Jones walked towards Sharon Allyson in his crutches and stood by her, took the paper bag, had a glance into it,
frowned and passed it to Talon Beale, "How would you explain this?"
Talon Beale's face had gone pale but he remained calm and took it over gently.
This is the paternity test done between Natalia Beale and himself about 20 years ago.This is exactly the copy from his house.
Talon Beale responded calmly, "I don't know what is going on and I have never done this before."
Mr Jones asked, "Do you mean this is fake?"
"This could be the only possibility."
Sharon Allyson raised her hand gently and gold chain went straight down from her fist, "Then, how about this? Will Mr.Beale still
deny knowing about it?"
A pocket watch that was partially burned caught everyone's attention.
Talon Beale had a change of expression, wanted to express his thoughts but had to hold it back.
Mr.Jones frowned upon seeing this, "Girl, show it to me."
Sharon Allyson retracted her hand but handed it to him eventually.
Mr Jones tossed and looked at it, frowned and asked, "Where's your mother's? Did you take it with you?"
"Yes, it is with me."
Sharon Allyson took the said pocket watch out of the bag and handed it to Mr.Jones.
Mr.Jones held both watches in hands and checked them against each other.
After a while, he said, "These two are exactly what Talon ordered back then.There's no doubt about that.Although this one got
burned like this, there are still recognizable signs left."
After hearing Mr.Jones's affirmation, Sharon Allyson looked at Talon Beale: "So, how is Mr.Beale going to explain all this? Both
this pocket watch and the paternity test are found in your room safe.Are you still trying to say that they are not yours?"
Even if Talon Beale could deny that the paternity test was not his, he could never explain the pocket watch.
If he even denied ownership of the pocket watch, it could mean nothing but that he was not the real Talon Beale.
Talon Beale quickly collected himself and replied with aplomb, "As you can see, the pocket watch was almost burned to a
never had a safe in my room"
Sharon Allyson said, "It can't be easier to know if you are lying.We just need to go check on it there."
As soon as the words left her mouth, Talon Beale's men hurried over to report nervously, "Master, this is bad! We just received a
call from the old house.It..it..."
Talon Beale said, "Just cut to the chase."
The man hurriedly continued, "It seems that the house has caught a great fire.It's still burning."
The crowd was shocked to hear that.
Talon Beale waved his hand and said to Sharon Allyson, "Sharon, is this what you want?"
Sharon Allyson opened her mouth and didn't know what to say for a moment.
She really didn't expect the Beale family to be on fire, and it just so happened to be at the right time, as if she had deliberately
slandered him and then destroyed the evidence..
Talon Beale spoke again, "Thank you all for coming to the Beale Group's anniversary, but I've said all what I want to say
today.I've gotta go home right away to fix something"
With this, Talon Beale hurriedly off to the door, but a male voice came from behind him, "Mr.Beale."
Talon Beale's eyes flashed with a touch of ferociousness, and he paused for a few seconds before turning his head,
"Mr.Matthias, is there anything else?"
Patrick Matthias approached him with a gentle smile on his face, "I heard what Mr.Beale said earlier.I'm just curious about
something."
"Let's talk about it later.My house is on fire and I have to get there immediately..."
"Just leave it to the firefighters, as they are professional.Mr.Beale would be of little use even if you were back in a second."
Before Talon Beale could respond, Patrick Matthias continued, "As Mr.Beale said earlier, the Beale Group is to be headed by
Miss Allyson alone.Does that mean that Miss Allyson will be the one solely responsible for whatever happens to the Beale
Group?"
Talon Beale said, "Beale Group is such a big company that every project is worth hundreds of millions of dollars.It goes without
saying that she will take full responsibility for whatever happens."
"Things are getting interesting! As far as I know, Beale Group has recently suffered serious losses.What's more, there was a
large amount of money missing from a few months ago.Even if the Beale Group is still able to maintain its former status, it is only
supported by an empty shell.Once this shell comes off, the Beale Group will be carrying hundreds of billions of dollars of
debt.Mr.Beale, do you think it a good time to shift the power to Miss Allyson? Are you actually planning to let her carry the Beale
Group's debt burden for you?"
