My Three Darlings

Chapter 176

Lucija was stunned. She could hear her own voice trembling. “Elias, what… what are you talking about?” “I said.” Elias frowned and glared at her. “Do you really think Bridget’s death was an accident?” “No matter how tight her mouth is, Beau will have a way to pry it open!” Lucija took a sudden step back. “So Bridget’s death…” “I did it.” Elias glanced coldly at Lucija. “How many times have I told you not to interfere in Beau and Eliza’s matters?” “Back then, I did want to make you and Beau a couple, but so many years have passed. You should also understand that it’s impossible between you and him!” “Did you forget what you did back then?” “You almost killed Eliza and her sons!” “You mentioned Chasity, who didn’t exist, again and again in front of Eliza. Did you want her to know that she is Chasity herself?” “Or.” Elias gave Lucija a tired look. “Do you think that I’m too free now and you’re trying to make things difficult for me?” Lucija bit her lips and bowed her head. “…” “I just can’t stand that Eliza has always been with Beau, and I also can’t stand that she has always been in his heart…” Elias laughed bitterly. “What if I can’t stand that you always have Beau in your heart?” “Should I learn from you and rob by force?” Lucija was suddenly stunned. She raised her head and her lips moved. After a while, she braced herself. “Elias… You are more than a decade older than me.” “You and my father are comrades-in-arms.” “I’ve always… always treated you as my brother.” Her words made Elias laugh bitterly, “I was just joking with you.” “I can protect you this time, but it’s impossible to protect you every time.” “I promised your father that I would be your backer in the future, but I can’t help you like this all the time.” Elias got up with his back facing Lucija: “Watch out for yourself.” . After that, he opened the door and left. The sun shined brightly on the corridor of the old house. In a daze, he seemed to see Lucija’s father, Liam. He lay on the bed covered in blood and held his hand. “Elias, I know that you have a good family background and you are always calm.” “Anyway, I’m dying. You can just put the blame for the failure of this mission on me.”

“I only have one request…” “Can you marry my daughter?” At that time, he sighed. “But I am more than a decade older than her.” “Then help me protect her, take care of her until she gets married, okay?” “All right…” Elias also closed his eyes. Liam had helped him to take on all the blame. It was all thanks to

Liam that he was able to advance and receive commendation and become the pride of the Valentine family. He could not go against his oath.

After Elias left, Lucija stayed in her room for the whole morning. At noon, she contacted Joye again, and the two of them sat in the coffee shop and reviewed what happened yesterday. Neither of them expected that yesterday, Eliza was clearly still that lowly and despised person. But instead, she defeated them. If not for Elias’s quick reaction, what happened back then would have been exposed today! While feeling shocked, Lucija also felt a lingering fear. “What should we do?” She had made up too much about Chasity before. If Eliza and Beau continued to investigate… Just as Lucija was anxious like an ant on a hot pan, Joye’s cell phone rang. “Hello, we are calling from the appraisal center of Krine. You sent two samples of hair here before, and the results are out now…” “I’ll get it later.” After Joye hung up the phone, Lucija frowned. “What’s wrong?” “It’s nothing.” Joye shrugged. “You’re aware that Julian has an adopted daughter, right?” Lucija nodded her head. She had seen Julian’s adopted daughter by chance before. Her appearance… was very similar to Eliza’s.

She never had a good impression on her. “This child was adopted by Julian from the orphanage in Krine.” “She’s about the same age as Beau’s sons.” Joye stood up. “Besides, she and Eliza look so alike…” Lucija suddenly opened her eyes wide. “So you suspect.” “I guess she might be the girl you dumped back then.” “That’s why I secretly fiddled with that little girl’s hair and then sent it over with Eliza’s hair for identification.” “The results just came out. Do you want to go with me?” Lucija stood up excitedly. “Let’s go!”. The result was exactly the same as Joye’s speculation. Lilliana was Eliza’s daughter. “This is getting interesting…” D Joye held the report with a touch of coldness on her lips. “Julian’s adopted daughter turns out to be Eliza’s daughter…” Lucija bit her lips, and an idea suddenly appeared in her mind. Even if Beau no longer cared about the fact that Eliza had given birth before, but what if he knew… that Eliza gave birth to a daughter for his love rival? Although Julian had mentioned to the public that Liliana was his adopted daughter. But many media speculated that his adopted daughter was just an excuse for his status to remain single. There were also many people who believed that this so-called adopted daughter was actually his own daughter. Thus… “Don’t tell anyone about this first.”

Joye slightly twisted her eyebrows while Lucija was daydreaming. She put the report in her backpack. “They will only find out the flaws if we expose this at the wrong timing. We have to give it further thought.” “I understand.” Lucija nodded. Just as she was about to say something, Joye’s phone rang again. It was her family who urged her to go to Bridget’s funeral. She was annoyed by the nagging, so she took a taxi and left directly. Lucija hesitated in the appraisal center for a long time. Finally, she pushed the door open and walked in. “Can you give me another copy of the report that Joye just took?” “I know there must be backups here.” “I’ll pay you no matter how much it costs.”

When Beau received Lucija’s phone call, he was having dinner with his family. The two little guys, Braint and Demarion, kept picking food for Eliza. “Mommy, eat this!” “Mommy, try this!” Facing the two passionate little guys, Eliza could only helplessly raise her head and ask Beau for help. He smiled lightly. Just as he was about to speak, his phone rang. It was the number of the old house. He frowned and picked it up. “Beau, it’s me, Lucija.” “Don’t hang up.” On the other end of the line, Lucija took a deep breath and said, “I have something important to tell you.”

“About… about Eliza’s daughter.”Belongs © to NôvelDrama.Org.
