This might be a bit long, pls bear with me. I got married to a virgin in 2021 with the rule of no sex before marriage but the marriage ended in 2023 due to many reasons most especially barrenness. Then to avoid my previous mistake, I made a new personal rule which I tell any lady I want to date, and the rule was; "you must get pregnant for me before I marry you". Around early April 2025, my GF said she's pregnant and after pressing her several times if she had sex with any other guy apart from me, she confessed that on February 22nd,2025 she was raped by one guy who told her to come for a job interview, then she had her period Feb 24th-28th then we had sex 1st of March,2025 which she now missed her period in March 2025, so definitely the pregnancy should belong to me since she still did period after the rape incident.
I took the matter up and got the rapist arrested, he confessed to raping her and was pleading for mercy and forgiveness which I later granted due to pressure from pastors and his relatives. So I took responsibility for the pregnancy,and delivery hoping to do a DNA test after delivery but the cost was too expensive for me to afford, so I did traditional marriage with her due to the family making it compulsory.
Fast forward to this month which the baby is 10months old, she fell sick and was taken to hospital, after treatment her genotype was done and found to be AS whereas myself and her mother are both AA, then I took them to three different facilities to repeat the same test and still got the same result. This means that I am not the biological father of the baby because it's not possible for two AA to produce AS, so therefore I am guessing the biological father of the baby is that rapist but what's confusing is she still had her period after that rape incident.
Anyways, I am really confused and needs an outsider opinion for me to make objective decision on this matter cos I and my family have already forged a bond with the baby, her mother and her family, if I spill this discovery, everything will spoil, if I don't spill it, I will be raising another man's child as my own and my family will be in the dark not knowing anything.
I really need a neutral suggestion on the next step to take either to call that rapist to ask him for genotype and if he's AS, then tell him he is the father of the baby OR I should call a meeting with my wife and her family to end the marriage and tell them what's going on OR I should just ignore everything and continue raising the baby as my own since no one knows about this issue yet.
Pls drop your civilized suggestions in the comment, no insults pls.
Mod can pls push forward to FP for more suggestions
