Chapter 247 Getting rissa''s Son to Do a Paternity Test
In the chairman''s office.
As soon as Zev entered the office, Wade hurled a ss of water at him."
Zev dodged, but the ss still smashed against the door, shattering. A shard cut his forehead.
rissa feigned concern. "Zion..."
"Get out." Zev warned her not toe near.
With her back to Wade, rissa shed a provocative smile at Zev.

Zev coldly looked at Wade, his voice deep. "Grandpa, Kelly and I are already married and have a child. That''s a fact that won''t change. I suggest you focus on enjoying yourter years and taking care of your health. You don''t need to meddle in the affairs of the younger generation."
"You brat, you''re not even fully fledged, and you dare talk to me like that?" Wade questioned him angrily. "I''m not dead yet! Everything in the Lockhart Group is still in my hands. As long as I''m alive, you don''t get to call the shots! Don''t think you''re my only heir! If you don''t obey, I can write my will anytime and leave everything to Shane!"
rissa curled her lips in satisfaction.
Her goal now was to push Wade to finalize his will
as
soon as possible.
Otherwise, the longer things dragged on, the more risks there would be.
"Do as you please," Zev spat angrily and turned to leave.
But Ken, who had just entered from outside, blocked his
way.
Frowning, Ken looked at Zev. "Your grandpa is old now. As his grandson, you should be more understanding. Thepany will ultimately be yours. Shane is still young, and if the Lockhart Group doesn''t stay within the family, outsiders might take it over. The management must remain in our own hands."
Although Ken seemed to be reprimanding Zev, his words were also meant for Wade.
Bypassing Zev to leave the inheritance to Shane-who was still very young-would create a lot of problems.
In ancient times, many wielded power by controlling the emperor tomand the feudal lords-let alone a corporation.
Zev frowned at Ken, clearly unimpressed.
Ken turned to Wade and spoke again. "Mr. Wade, Zion is still your grandson. He grew up without the love of his parents and left home at an early age. Shouldn''t your love for him be gentler rather than so forceful?"
Ken knew Wade too well-he understood exactly how to soften his temper.
Sure enough, at the mention of Zev''s childhood loss, Wade''s anger eased considerably.

rissa shot a furious re at Ken, a sh of murderous intent in her eyes. Ken was getting in her way.
For the past two years, with Zev and Kelly disappearing from the picture, she had been close to having Wade finalize his will. Once that was done, he could simply ''disappear, leaving the Lockharts entirely in her hands.
But Ken had to meddle! If not for him, the surveince would have been in ce long ago!
Ken knew Wade far better than she did...
How infuriating.
It seemed she needed to remove some obstacles first.
ris a''s cold gaze lingered on Ken before she walked past him, seamlessly switching to a gentle smile. "Zion, let''s go. Let''s not upset Grandpa any further." Zev gave Ken a meaningful look before opening the door and leaving.
Now, only Wade and Ken remained in the office.
Ken prepared a cup of hot tea and walked over, gently massaging Wade''s shoulders. "Mr. Wade ... don''t keep using the will to provoke Zion. It took a lot to persuade him to return to thepany."
"Hmph, he''spletely lost his mind," Wade snorted, rubbing his temples. "If he insists on staying married to that Kelly and refuses to bring rissa into the family, giving Shane his rightful status, then I have no choice but to reconsider the will! Do you
gone, someone as ill-bred and vicious as Kelly, at if everything falls into Zion''s hands after I''m
tolerate rissa and Shane?"
Wade sighed, already nning ahead for his great-grandson, Shane.
Ken fell silent for a moment before speaking softly, "Mr. Wade, the fact is that Zion
is already married to Kelly. That can''t be changed. Shane, on the other hand, is
an illegitimate child. If you want to include him in the will, a paternity test will be necessary."
"Do we even need a test? I was there throughout the entire process when rissa underwent IVF and the embryo transfer," Wade said confidently.
Ken spoke again, "Given Zion''s personality, we can''t rule out the possibility that the sperm used wasn''t from the Lockharts. If there''s any mistake... To be safe, a paternity test is necessary."
Wade was persuaded by Ken''s reasoning.
"We need to convince rissa to cooperate and get the child tested," he sighed. "And as for Kelly''s child, find a way to have her bring him in for a paternity test as well. Otherwise... she can forget about gett, a share of the Lockharts'' assets!"
Ken nodded.
As long as Wade agreed to the paternity test, things would be much easier to handle.
In Kelly''s residence.

On his way back, he had passed by a snack street and didn''t forget to buy a bag
of candied pecans for Kelly.
“It''s fresh from the oven," he said, shaking the paper bag at her
Kelly walked over, pinched his chin, and inspected his wound. "Did your grandpa hit you?"
He got hit in front of all those people?
Zev shook his head. "He threw a cup. I just got scratched."
Kelly turned away, fetched the first-aid kit, cleaned his wound, and carefully ced a band-aid on it.
"Zev... Have you considered getting a divorce?" she asked softly.
