The mother-in-law jumped with a DNA test… The daughter-in-law’s answer left all the guests stunned

“What’s that supposed to mean?” he asked, bewildered. Maria explained, “You need to take a paternity test with your father. What if your mom cheated and you’re not his? People who betray others often suspect everyone else of the same. It hurts that you don’t trust me but take her word as gospel.”

Ethan was furious and shouted back, “What kind of nonsense is this? How dare you talk about my mom like that? She and Dad have been together nearly 30 years, and they’re happy.” But Maria stood her ground. Eventually, Ethan relented. Once his emotions cooled, he realized his wife had a point.

Suspicions like these were no joking matter. Maria simply wanted him to experience the sting of being doubted and distrusted. Composed, Ethan replied curtly, “Alright, dear. You’ll get your test. I’ll try to convince Dad, though I have no idea how I’m going to explain this to him.”

At first, his father resisted the idea. Robert Alexander grumbled, “What’s this foolishness you’ve cooked up? Why is this necessary?” “Dad, please, just help me out without asking too many questions,” Ethan pleaded.

“Fine, son,” the older man sighed, though he wasn’t thrilled about it. The day arrived when the test results were ready.

Ethan and Maria visited his parents’ home. After picking up the sealed envelopes from the clinic, everyone gathered at the table. Ethan pulled out the first envelope.

Elizabeth Andrea smirked slyly, anticipating her imminent triumph. She eagerly awaited her son opening the envelope. But Ethan turned to her and said, “Mom, I’m about to open this blasted envelope and read the results. If you’re right, Maria and I will divorce. But if the test is positive, you’ll apologize to my wife and never again interfere in our lives to drive us apart. I think that’s fair.” His mother merely smiled and nodded. Finally, Ethan tore open the envelope and announced Liam’s results.

She listened, stunned, unable to believe her ears. Ethan was ready to combust with shame. His first impulse was to drop to his knees and beg his wife for forgiveness.

He cursed himself for trusting his mother over his beloved wife. What a fool he’d been! But Maria halted his attempts to apologize and fixed her gaze on her mother-in-law.

Elizabeth Andrea trembled with rage at the test results. Ethan slowly pulled out the second envelope and said cryptically, “But that’s not all. Here are the paternity test results for me and Dad. My wife insisted on this, and I didn’t object.” Hearing her son’s words, Elizabeth Andrea nearly fell out of her chair. She clutched the table and shouted, “Ethan, don’t!”

She leapt up, trying to snatch the envelope from him, but Ethan sat her back down and opened it. He and his father stared at the results with curiosity.

Suddenly, Ethan looked at his mother, confused. Robert Alexander grabbed the paper from his son and exclaimed, “What’s this? How is this possible? I don’t understand.” “I don’t either, Dad,” Ethan replied.
