Chapter 465

Auteur: Summer Blossom
The man's mother couldn't take the blow of losing her daughter and fell ill. She had been bedridden ever since.

For the sake of her health—both physical and emotional—the family had no choice but to move abroad. Staying in the same place and surrounded by everything that reminded her of what she'd lost would have only deepened her sorrow.

20 years had passed, and the family had almost accepted the harsh truth. Their kidnapped daughter was gone for good. She was either lost forever or already dead.

The man took a deep breath and pulled himself out of those heavy thoughts from the past. He tightened his grip around the ornate velvet box in his hand. He looked determined, and a glimmer of hope lit up his eyes.

If this necklace were up for auction, he wondered whether his sister was nearby—or if she'd never left the city at all. Maybe someone else had come across it by chance and put it up for sale, unaware of its true significance.

But even the faintest glimmer of hope was enough for

    Sharon confirmed the photo and smiled."The faster, the better. The deposit has already been paid. As for the upper limit on the balance, that depends on how quickly you act," she said over the phone.The person on the other end expressed their understanding, and the call ended.Sharon set down the phone and let out a cold snort.Macie was in her way, plain and simple. As long as she was around, Sharon would never have the future she wanted.Macie's disappearance wasn't just necessary. It was deserved. She had stolen Edward from her first, after all. Now it was only fair that Macie paid the price.One life for everything Macie had stolen. Sharon saw it as a fair trade.Sharon was confident that there would be no mistakes. She had hired professionals, and the payment was extremely generous. The payment of 50 million dollars was more than enough to buy a life.Then, as another thought crossed her mind, the smile on her lips grew. She used Macie's necklace for the auction, then us

    "Yesterday, you said you wouldn't put it up for auction unless it was absolutely necessary. Did something happen? If so, you can tell me. I'll help you handle it," Elias Hale said.At his words, Sharon smiled faintly and gently declined his offer to help."I'll tell you once we become a real family. The necklace was sold, and I've already received the money. The problem has been resolved."Hearing her refusal, Elias felt a twinge of disappointment, sensing that she still kept her guard up around him.There was a 90% chance the DNA results would confirm that they were biological siblings. After all, so many things matched up, from timelines to fragments of her memory. But it seemed that Sharon still couldn't bring herself to believe it.Elias decided to let it be. He would wait for the final results. "Would you like to have lunch with me?" he asked.Sharon paused, hesitating for a few seconds before giving a small nod.Elias watched her, a subtle smile appearing on his lips. He n

    Elias reached out and took the small sealed bag, examining the strands of hair inside. Then, he looked up and said, "You're very thorough. Thank you for your cooperation, Ms. Emerson."Sharon smiled sweetly and responded, "It's the least I could do. After all, this is no small matter."He slipped the hair sample into his coat pocket. He then leaned back against his seat, crossed his hands, and asked the questions he had been meaning to ask since last night. "What's the name of the orphanage you grew up in?"After hearing that, she smiled. Sharon had expected him to look into the orphanage, so she'd taken care of her records there the day before. "It used to be called Ethereal Home, but now it's Sunlit Hearthstead Orphange," she answered calmly.Elias wrote down the name of the orphanage and inquired, "And you were around four years old when you arrived there? Do you remember how you got away from the traffickers?"Her expression turned somber, and she let out a sigh. "I don't reme

    Elias stopped a few steps in front of Sharon and said, "Hi, I'm Elias. Are you Ms. Emerson?" However, the young woman simply stared at him wordlessly. So, he pulled out his phone and made a call, frowning.Sharon was still caught in the daze of her imagined morning romance. But the moment he introduced himself, her heart nearly dropped.The man introduced himself as Elias. Wasn't that her "older brother"? Sharon had already marked him as her next conquest, yet he turned out to be that Elias. Although they weren't related by blood, she was about to pass herself off as his long-lost sister, so there was no way she could pursue him romantically.Her heart sank with disappointment. She couldn't believe the odds. She had finally found a man who made her heart race, but he was entirely off-limits for her.Still, she thought that it wasn't all bad. He wasn't her man, but he was her "older brother". He'd still be someone close to her.Sharon glanced at him again. Right then, her phone r

    The moment the call ended, Nolan reported it to Yosef at the Fowler residence. "Mr. Fowler is still on the phone discussing work matters at this hour, Mr. Fowler Senior. He sure is dedicated.""Is he really talking about work? It's almost 10:00 pm. Who's still working at this hour?" Yosef frowned."It could've just been a quick check-in," Nolan offered. "From the sound of it, it seemed like a project he really cares about. He instructed the other party to close the deal regardless of the circumstances. It apparently slipped through their fingers once before."Yosef's frown deepened when he heard that. A second round of negotiations? But he'd reviewed nearly every major deal in the past ten days and didn't recall anything fitting that description."Look into it. Find out what project he's so hands-on with. If it's something that failed once already, it shouldn't be hard to trace," he ordered. Nolan nodded, though given the hour, he figured he'd wait until morning to ask Nathan about

    While Elias was brimming with anticipation, Sharon returned to her motel and stood in front of the bathroom mirror, studying her reflection intently. She and Macie didn't look much alike. The former was taller and had a long face, whereas the latter's face was oval-shaped. Her features were more spread out, whilst Macie's were closer-set, with softer curves in her brows and eyes.Sharon thought about how she needed to change her makeup to look more like Macie. The heavy makeup and bright red lips she liked before wouldn't cut it anymore. From now on, she had to go for a lighter, softer look to downplay her features.Mulling it over, she started applying makeup and shaving off her arched brows. After an hour, she looked at herself in the mirror. She looked a little plain, but a small smile curved at her lips. She thought it was great, as she now looked more like Macie. Sharon was meticulous. She didn't overlook a single detail. Since she had monolids, she decided to wear double-
