Recently, however, Leo started behaving strangely whenever Denise was around. He would cling to Zoe longer than usual when she tried to leave or hide when he heard Denise’s car arrive. Initially, Zoe thought it might be a phase or separation anxiety, common in young children. But one evening, right before Zoe was about to leave for a night shift, Leo burst into tears, begging her not to leave him with his grandmother. Concerned, Zoe knelt beside Leo, trying to comfort him by reminding him of the treats his grandmother often brought. But Leo, looking toward the door in fear, revealed that his grandmother was acting strangely. He described how Denise would try to put something in his mouth, chasing him with it. The item, Leo explained, was a cotton bud, which Denise insisted on using to collect his saliva for a test. The thought of this terrified the little boy, who was still traumatized from a recent accident that left him with a broken arm and a fear of anything medical.Zoe’s unease turned into anger as she realized Denise had been trying to administer a DNA test without her knowledge. Determined to confront the situation, Zoe stormed into the guest room where Denise was sleeping and demanded answers. Denise, caught off guard, admitted that she was suspicious about Leo’s blonde hair, a trait no one in their family shared. Her curiosity had driven her to this desperate act, all to satisfy her doubts about Leo’s paternity. Shocked and hurt, Zoe couldn’t believe Denise would go to such lengths. She asked Denise to leave, needing time to process what had happened and focus on comforting Leo. Over the next few days, tension grew between Zoe and Andrew. Denise had already called Andrew, sowing seeds of doubt in his mind. Despite his initial hesitation, Andrew suggested they do the test to settle the matter once and for all. Zoe agreed, but only on one condition—Andrew would also take a DNA test to prove that his father was truly his biological father. If Denise wanted to throw accusations around, then she should be prepared to face them herself. Though surprised by Zoe’s demand, Andrew eventually agreed.A few days later, the test results arrived, confirming that Leo was indeed Andrew’s son. But there was an unexpected twist—Andrew’s test revealed that his biological father was not the man he had believed him to be all his life. As Andrew processed this shocking news, Zoe distanced herself from Denise, unwilling to forgive her mother-in-law’s actions so easily. Eventually, Andrew confronted Denise, who confessed to having had an affair in her youth. This revelation shattered Andrew’s perception of his family, and he decided to take time and space away from his mother to focus on his own family with Zoe and Leo. Denise’s guilt had festered for decades, leading her to project her insecurities onto Zoe and Leo. But now, Zoe and Andrew were determined to move forward, focusing on their son and leaving Denise’s drama behind.
