"Ahem!"
Only then did, Cleo justify her dumbfounded expression and becomes embarrassed by herself. While Harry's escorts pretended not to have seen or heard. They all looked away and still stood tall.
Harry pulled up a chair and sat there. Leaning his arm on Dr. Edward's desk. He then looked at Dr. Edward.
"I'm convinced you've learned most of this from Cleo. Been watching all that rubbish news and the press conference I had today."
Dr. Edward congratulated Harry and shaking his head as a sign of his amazement.
"You became a famous celebrity in just one day!"
Cleo sat down beside Harry.
"Have all the problems been handled properly? The mass media won't drop your name again?"
Cleo asked out of curiosity. Made Harry look at her with certain eyes. He wanted to say something. But he couldn't bear to hurt Cleo's heart.
"Everything is fine from now on. Then, if Julia absolutely is Jenny. Then this whole feud will end sooner than we expected."
Cleo breathed a sigh of relief.
"That's good. But, if I've may know. Why are you running in such a hurry like just now? Anyone chasing you? And something bothering you?"
Harry changed the subject again.
"I will get a sample of Muliawan's blood as soon as possible."
Dr. Edward agreed with it.
"The sooner was the better. But how do you get it?"
Harry didn't specify what he was going to do. He squinted and was already starting to think some ways in his head.
Julia came into Dr. Edward's office room again with a slightly pale face. She looked at Cleo and Harry at the same time. She was getting much better when she saw them together.
Dr. Edward didn't know how else he could reduce the number of men standing in and in front of his room like he was a suspect who needed to be kept away from the outside world.
A nurse came forward to give the news.
"I've taken Miss Julia's blood sample and kept it."
She then left with a scared look on her face because she felt uncomfortable toward too many scary people with her at this time.
Julia approached Cleo.
Standing beside her and glancing at Harry. Julia showed her discomfort unintentionally. Harry realized that then said.
"I'm not going to judge you weird. So there's no necessary to look at me with that restless look."
Julia just smiled faintly. She just came out of the lab room. Accidentally heard the bad news about Cleo and was worried about the woman right now. But she didn't dare to start a conversation.
Harry stood up. He asked everyone to follow him except Dr. Edward, of course.
"We have to get out from here and stop worrying about me. Because this isn't the first time you've ignored my remand."
This firmness was more Harry directed at Cleo. He turned and looked at his wife.
"Then. I've may look cruel in your eyes. But I'm doing all this for your good and safety. I'll let you do whatever you want once you're safe again. So wait for that time. And be an obedient wife."
Cleo defended herself.
"But anything I did today, had a reason. And you can't forget this great effort of mine."
Harry patted Cleo's head gently.
"I know. So, let's go home and rest. Then I'll have someone take Julia off."
Harry gave up his last intention. He let Julia come with them in the same car to get a lot of information out from her. But at that time he was busy sending messages to Luan either.
Asked about how his efforts were going to remove all of Cleo's viral videos. Harry ignored other phone calls from the influential people in his company and was enthusiastic about his other business colleague.
The three of them are now sitting opposite each other inside the car. Began busy thinking of each other. Harry kept watching Julia with an appraising look. He repeatedly matched his memory of Jenny and Julia's figure.
He was shocked and became had a hard time matching the two of them.
"I can understand that you were probably surprised to learn this information. But this matter is no different for me or the rest of my family if they have find out it later."
Harry glanced at Cleo too.
"But how did you guess that Julia was Jenny?" Harry mentioned his one-sided judgment "They look so different and I have a hard time matching their resemblance."
When Jenny was little, Jenny had a round face shape and a slightly fat body but at a normal capacity. Meanwhile, Julia's face that he was currently looking at was so thin and tiny. Her eyes look much bigger and her nose also looks sharp without surgery.
"I've seen a childhood photo of Julia when I accidentally came to her home. She looks so similar to Jenny's photo that you showed me. That's why I've once told you. I've seen that girl's face somewhere."
Harry was getting much calmer when he was able to shake off his doubts about Jenny who was might be Cleo. He was glad that Cleo was not involved in blood relations with Theodore's family.
He was pleased when Jenny was someone else and not Cleo. Harry secretly laughed at his carelessness and stupidity of worrying about several things that he shouldn't have considered.
Harry glanced back at Julia.
"If so. Where have you been? And why is it only appearing now?"
Julia felt her throat dry.
"I don't remember of my childhood before I was 8 years old. My memories of those days disappeared suddenly. And the thing that I remember the most at that time was, I was abandoned on the side of the road just like that."
Harry listened intently.
"Aimless. And my adoptive father found me that day. Then take me to his home."
Cleo became quiet at the right time. For the sake of letting Julia finish the whole story.
Harry took this situation in a different light.
"In that case, your adoptive father could be charged as a kidnap suspect!"
The circumstances were getting worse when the stupid and annoying guy took Jenny without reporting it to the police. He was not trying to find out who the biological parents of the little girl he accidentally found.
Harry held himself to not hitting any hard object. He tried to calm himself while thinking several things.
"Then, can you show me your palm?" Harry's sudden request made Julia and Cleo become confused.
The two of them looked at each other and confirmed their synchronous hearing.
"I only told you to show your palm. Is it difficult?"
Cleo coded for Julia to obey.
Julia stuck her palm out in front of her. Harry examined the hand and found what he was looking for. Although it was too faint and the size of the scratch was different.
Harry was very sure that the scar he had imagined and what he was seeing at this moment was the same scar.
Harry lifted his face and aimed at Julia.
"Where did you get this scar from?"
Julia looked confused. It was difficult for her to answer the question because from the start the scratch had been on her left palm without she has been able to remember what caused it.
Julia shook her head.
"I don't know. And I don't remember at all. But I got this wound a long time ago."
Harry gave up on the question.
"Then how can I meet up with your adoptive father? I believe we need to hear testimony from him."
Julia abruptly looked down. Cleo replaced Julia to answer Harry's interrogation.
"Julia's adoptive father is dead, Har. Julia is now alone because her adoptive father decided not to marry in order to raise Julia alone."
Julia fluttered her eyelids. She tried to get rid away her bitter memories. Although she missed her adoptive father so much. And for her, her adoptive father was a very kind and loving man.
She then raised her head.
"My adoptive father couldn't possibly be planning to kidnap me. He's been trying to find out who my real parents are. But he only got failure."
This testimony was very strange and unnatural. Grandma and her two sons were doing their best to find Jenny. But how could Julia's adoptive father say that he had a hard time finding out who Julia's real parents were?
Harry decided to stick to one thing.
"if it's like this, let's wait until your DNA test results we got it."
Harry didn't ask Julia anymore. He was busy with his own thoughts and leaned his head to relax.
