Will Laurent Come to Delphine's aid? "It's plausible"

Will Prince Laurent come to Delphine's aid? When he was asked during the RTL "Contreverse" talk show about the possibility of the king's younger son giving a DNA sample in the paternity suit, Pierre Legros mentioned that it's "a completely plausible hypothesis."

When we brought up the incident, Pierre Legros wavered a little.  "Prince Laurent is aware that he might be asked for a DNA sample. If he is asked, he will consider it. He's not against it as a matter of principle. He's very open to the notion. This doesn't reflect on his possible decision."

I hope he does come to the rescue of this poor woman, let her have some peace of mind.

She could have obtained peace of mind on her own  though...

[Blue Clover]

Peace of mind comes from knowing who your parents are, I can't see how she can do that if the man she believes is her father refuses testing.

Peace of mind can also come from within and knowing who you are as a person, as an individual. This just feels like a vendetta for some reason...
