Chapter 238 You Are Not Her Biological Daughter
There was a time when she saw such calm and persistent eyes.
When was it?
Her head hurt so badly that she couldn’t remember.
She inserted her fingertips into her lengthy hair, feeling a little painful. “Eason, give me some time to think. I’m in a mess now.”
“Okay.” Eason glanced at the time and suggested, “It’s still early. Do you want to go upstairs and sleep for a while?”
Last night was Eason’s first visit to Cordelia’s house, and he didn’t know where her bedroom was. So it was inconvenient to
take her upstairs rashly. He had to leave her on the sofa for the whole night.
Cordelia shook her head. “Eason, can you order two takeout? I’ll wash up and get the letter after breakfast.”
“Sure.”
An hour later, Cordelia got the letter without trouble.
Her vision immediately blurred when she saw the beautiful font
on the envelope.
It was her grandma’s handwriting!
[Cordie, I hope you are well.]
[Forgive me for telling you something about your past in this way.]
[Let me guess, you must be Milo’s favorite apprentice now, right? Are you married? Did you choose the handsome guy from the Hansen family or the pretty boy from the Taylor family? Did you have any children?]
[Haha, Cordie, you are so beautiful and kind. Your family must be very happy, right? Then it’s time for grandma to tell you the truth about your background.]
[You are not Janice’s biological daughter. Janice did remarry, but you are not her biological daughter.]
Seeing this, Cordelia’s pupils trembled.
She was not Janice’s biological daughter? How could it be?
[Cordie, your mother’s name is Jane. She is Janice’s younger sister and also my daughter. Because of some factors of the times, Jane broke up with us on her initiative and went out to make a living alone.]
[Some day later, she suddenly brought you back and made a deal with Janice, letting her adopt you and let me raise you.]
[She has a special
yours. She sacrificed herself for righteousness. Grandma hopes that you don’t blame your mother.]
[If you meet your mother in the future, I hope you can tell her that grandma has missed her all my life, blessed her, and never forgotten her.]
[And there is one more important thing that grandma also hopes you can remember.]
[You have a benefactor named Henry.]
[When you participated in the Mount Damerel firefighting at fourteen, you almost died in the disaster. It was that boy who saved you.]
[But you were seriously poisoned by carbon monoxide at the time, and you had a serious illness, and you almost died. After you recovered, you lost a short memory and had nightmares for a while.]
[So, I dare not mention that accident to you.]
[Cordie, you have grown up. The past suffering will eventually pa*s, and your future will be better and more brilliant.]
[Grandma hopes you will be happy and safe in this life.]
The final signature was: [Loving Grandma.]
Cordelia grasped the letter with trembling hands, and tears were
Eason stood not far from Cordelia, watching her silently.
Seeing that she had put away the letter, Eason handed her a handkerchief. “Wipe your tears!”
Cordelia carefully put away the letter and put it back in her bag, then took Eason’s handkerchief but cried even harder.
Looking at her trembling shoulders, Eason wanted to give her a shoulder to lean on.
However, he asked awkwardly and at a loss anyway, “Cordelia, do you need a hug?”
