Freya picked up the identification report and carefully read it over.

Although she had anticipated it, she was still shocked. She turned to Xavier, "Are you sure the report is correct?"

Xavier firmly replied, "I have verified it three times, and the results are consistent. The evidence proves that Ella is indeed the daughter of the pavilion master."

This identification was personally conducted by him and there is no room for error.

Moreover, the matching rate of the mother and daughter's DNA is too high, confirming their blood relation.

"I understand now. So, Jade discovered this secret a long time ago, which is why she wanted to eliminate Ella. However, when Ella didn't die, Jade got nervous. When the pavilion master arranged to meet Ella, Jade was afraid her past actions would be exposed, so she decided to kill the pavilion master."

Freya narrowed her eyes. If that's the case, Jade really has some skills, managing to deceive everyone for so many years.

Xavier was also shocked after receiving the results.

Since learning about Ella's troubled past, Xavier had been secretly investigating Ella's background, but had not found any results until now.

After all, Ella only remembers what happened after being adopted by Raven Pavilion, and all memories from before are gone. This makes the investigation really tricky.

"One thing is very suspicious, how did Jade know the truth? Even the Pavilion Master didn't find out, yet Jade managed to manipulate it for over a decade."

This is the most puzzling aspect for Xavier.

In theory, if Jade had any doubts, how could someone as astute as the Pavilion Master not know?

Ella clenched his fists and said hoarsely, "In fact, when rumors were flying around, the Pavilion Master once conducted a parent-child identification test with me. The result confirmed that we were not mother and daughter, so the matter was dropped. Also, because Jade was very upset about this, the Pavilion Master was able to silence everyone and prevent anyone from mentioning it."

Upon hearing this, Freya furrowed her brow even deeper.

It was supposed to be a mother-daughter relationship, but the result was unsatisfactory.

This can only mean one thing - someone tampered with the paternity test.

"If I'm not mistaken, Jade bribed the doctor to alter the paternity report. Ella, do you remember which doctor conducted the test for you back then?"

It seems that the surname is Bradley. Since I can remember, Dr. Bradley has always been in charge of the health of the Lord. I heard that the Lord was in critical condition during childbirth, and it was Dr. Bradley who saved the Lord's life. Later, the Lord's health deteriorated, so Dr. Bradley was hired as a private physician to help her recover.

"Find this Dr. Bradley, interrogate rigorously, maybe there will be some gains."

Freya had a premonition that once she found the doctor bought by Jade, everything would be revealed.

Ella nodded.

She also wanted to know what had happened back then, why her own daughter ended up outside, while Jade took her place for over twenty years.

....

Raven Pavilion.

Jade sat on the sofa drinking tea.

At this moment, Yoyo hurriedly walked in.

"Second Miss, something big has happened."

"What's the matter?"

Yolanda's face looked very bad. She walked up to her and whispered something in her ear. Immediately, Jade's face turned ugly.

She threw the tea cup in her hand on the ground, stood up abruptly, and said, "Those old stubborn people, what ceremony do they still want when they're dead? Tell them, the inheritance ceremony will proceed smoothly in a week. Whether they agree or not, I have secured the position of the pavilion master."

"You can't do that, Miss Er. Those are the elders of Raven Pavilion, they still hold a lot of authority. If they don't attend the inheritance ceremony and preside over it, even if you receive the token of succession, you won't be the legitimate master of Raven Pavilion!"

Following Jade's orders, Yolanda spread the news of inheriting the position of pavilion master, but to her surprise, the elders who had retired in the pavilion all stood up and opposed it.

Even when Yolanda revealed that the pavilion master had passed away, they refused to concede.

Yolanda couldn't persuade these people and could only retreat and report back.

"Hmph, once I inherit Raven Pavilion, I will cancel these unwritten rules one by one. As for those so-called elders, they are all parasites of Raven Pavilion and there is no need for them to stay."

Jade's anger could not be contained, she directly swept the tea set off the coffee table, splashing tea all over the floor. Ever since the pavilion master passed the succession token to her, those elders had been dissenting, even feeling that she was unsuitable to be in power.

Some people actually bring up the traitor Ella, which makes Jade extremely angry.

Now that she is about to inherit the position of the pavilion master, they are coming out to oppose her, clearly not wanting her to control the Raven Pavilion.

"Miss Ji, the elders still hold a lot of power in each department. If you go head-to-head with them, I'm worried..."

"What's there to worry about? I am the one in charge of the Raven Pavilion. From now on, everyone has to obey my orders."

Jade's eyes were fierce, her fists clenched tightly, making a cracking sound, "Go, cause them some trouble. If they still refuse to give in, then..."

After speaking, Jade made a gesture of slicing her neck.

She would never let these elders ruin her plans. They have always favored Ella, even after he became a traitor to the Raven Pavilion, they still refuse to give up.

Since they can't be of use to her, there's no point in keeping them around. It's better to eliminate them now to prevent obstacles later.

"Miss Ji, if you do this, I'm afraid it might backfire. It might be better to..."

"I told you to do it, so just do it. If you keep talking, I'll punish you along with the others!"

Without waiting for Yolanda to finish speaking, Jade coldly interrupted her.

"Yes."

Yolanda dared not disobey the command, so she turned and left.

In a corner, a pair of sharp eyes deeply observed the two of them, capturing every word of their conversation.

After Yolanda left, she quietly retreated and immediately transmitted the information she heard.

...

In the medical room.

Xavier and White Tiger were chatting with Madam Shawn .

Madam Shawn held White Tiger's hand, smiling and saying, "Little Fox, you don't have to bring so much every time, Yolanda can't eat that much, it's a waste to leave it."

"Mom, Little Fox also hopes for your early recovery, right?"

Xavier looked at his mother's fondness for the white fox and felt very happy.

"If you want me to recover soon, you two should hurry up and settle the marriage, so that you can give birth to a chubby grandson for me early, and then all my health problems will be gone," his mother said enthusiastically.

Xavier anxiously exclaimed, "Mom, didn't you say you wouldn't interfere in our affairs? Why are you suddenly urging us to get married?"

He still wanted to enjoy a few years of dating and even if he were to get married, he didn't plan on having children so soon.
