Elia Parker’s smile at the corner of her mouth obviously stiffened, and she was a bit unhappy with that remark, “Madam, my daughter is of course my own flesh and blood, I don’t know what you mean by inquiring about my daughter?”
Upon hearing that, Angela Reid’s heart sank. If it was indeed her biological daughter, it meant that Emily wasn’t her daughter from those years ago.
Her hopes dashed once again, Angela’s expression darkened, and she stood up to leave.
However, she seemed unable to let go completely, and turned her head back just before leaving, “Really your own flesh and blood? Not adopted?”
Her words completely wiped the smile off Elia’s face. Since she got the money, there was no need for her to keep smiling, “Yes, she is born from my ten-month pregnancy! What are you probing about my daughter Emily for anyway?”
Elia was very unhappy about being bluntly asked about her family affairs!
However, this statement reignited the flames of hope within Angela Reid’s heart.
She looked up at Elia, her excitement hard to conceal, “What did you just say? Leanne? Isn’t your daughter’s name Emily?”
Could it be that she had two daughters? Angela wondered.
Elia was taken aback, so this was about that girl!
“Emily is not my daughter!” She averted her gaze with a huff. Thinking about how she and her man had been chased out of the restaurant last time by Emily, Elia was still quite resentful to this day!
“Then who is she?” Angela asked cautiously, perhaps she was the daughter she had 20 years ago!
However, Elia’s next words extinguished the last hope that had just been ignited in Angela’s heart.
“She is the daughter of my husband and his ex-wife!” Elia blurted out unhappily.
There were three people she hated the most in her life, and they were Wilson Carter’s ex-wife and their two children!
But today, someone came specifically to ask her about these people, which really upset her!
“Ex-wife…” Angela froze in dismay.
“Yes, she was born to my husband and his ex-wife!” Elia didn’t want to continue talking to her, so she stood up, “Is there anything else? If not, I’m busy!”
With that, she turned her head and left without looking back, leaving Angela Reid with a stunned expression.
Her faint hope was ultimately shattered, and Angela left the restaurant feeling a bit lost and desolate.
Perhaps it was just because she longed too much to find her daughter. If her daughter were still alive, how could they not have found her back then?
As for the mandarin duck stone, it might just be a coincidence.
These past few days, Emily liked to lie in bed late, not getting up until nine plus in the morning.
The weather was gradually getting cooler. That morning, Emily finished washing up and dressed in a loose white extended-length shirt and simple black leggings.
Her belly was gradually becoming more prominent, and Mrs. Noelle had said not to wear tight clothes to avoid squeezing the baby inside.
Coming downstairs, Emily passed the living room on her way to the dining room, but unintentionally noticed a file folder on the tea table and walked over curiously.
Opening the folder, Emily was taken aback.
Wasn’t this the planning case that Baron Stuart mentioned yesterday? Why didn’t he take it? Wasn’t it for a meeting today?
At the thought, Emily picked up the phone and dialed Baron Stuart’s number, but nobody answered.
Could he be in the middle of a meeting?
Looking at the file in her hand, Emily thought, if they found out the file was missing halfway through the meeting, wouldn’t it cause a great loss?
