Even if she’s not my Seraphina, can’t I still consider her as a sister?” Protecting Claudia had become a habit these days. Waldron had made up his mind. If Claudia wasn’t Seraphina, he would consider her his sister. “Nothing is certain until it’s verified. Waldron still believed that Claudia was Seraphina. Ervin had long seen through his thoughts. “Dad won’t allow it, and Elva will be angry.” Mentioning Elva, Waldron smirked, “I’m considering Claudia as my sister, not asking you to do the same. If Elva gets mad over this, what will she do when Seraphina comes back?” Little did Waldron know that his words would later become prophetic. While talking, both had followed the car into the estate. As soon as they entered the hall, they saw Thomas, who was sitting in the middle with his back to them. Thomas, dressed in a suit, turned around. His black and white hair was combed back, and despite being over fifty, his features were still distinct, revealing his youthful handsomeness. 11-21 “Dad.” Thomas looked at Waldron, his expression dark, “Waldron, what exactly is your relationship with Claudia?” Thomas had also heard about the events at yesterday’s banquet and how Waldron had messed up the collaboration between the two families. A quick investigation revealed the crux of the matter. Knowing that this was a difficult hurdle with his father, Waldron didn’t want to explain too much and simply said, “I want to take her as my sister.”
Thomas was taken aback, “Is that … all?” Waldron spread his hands resignedly, “Yeah, what else? Do you want me to marry her? I don’t mind, as long as you don’t care about the Lamont family’s revenge.” “You cheeky brat!” Thomas cursed and threw a cup at him. “You already have a sister, why do you need another one?” “Elva was adopted by you, not by me. I lost my biological sister. What’s wrong with having another one?”
Hearing this, Thomas fell silent for a long time. The disappearance of Seraphina had always been a sad thing for the Friedan family. Finding Seraphina was not only his hope but also the hope of his children. “Do you want to consider her as your sister because she resembles Tania?” Waldron remained silent, and Thomas snorted. 16.93% 11:20 Chapter 21 She Can’t Possibly Be Seraphina 40 (Vouchers “I know you have deep feelings for Tania. After all, she raised you for a few years. But even if she resembles Tania, this girl can’t possibly be Seraphina.” Thomas had investigated Claudia. Apart from her life improving slightly after marrying Edmond, her previous life was miserable. Claudia had been bullied from elementary school to college because she had no parents. Thomas had turned Wellfort upside down looking for Seraphina. If Claudia was Seraphina, what had they been doing all these years? So close yet so far. This would be a slap in their faces. “Ervin,” Thomas seemed to have thought of something, “your mother kept saying she saw Seraphina
yesterday, and she seemed men tally stable. Investigate who attended yesterday’s event and who interacted with Emily.” Mentioning Emily, Thomas’ voice softened considerably. Ever since Seraphina went missing, Emily’s men tal health had deteriorated. Finding Seraphina might cure her. There were many guests at yesterday’s banquet, and he didn’t know what had happened to Emily. The only way to find out was to start with the guests. “Alright,” Ervin nodded gently. He also knew about this. Emily’s mood had noticeably improved after finding her yesterday. Waldron was idly scrolling through his phone. Seeing that they had 33.99% 11:21 finished discussing matters, he quickly stood up to leave. Thomas called out to him, “Since you want to take her as your sister, she should meet us. Invite her over for dinner tomorrow.” Waldron was surprised by Thomas’ words and excitedly asked, “Really?” Was this an agreement? Seeing Waldron’s excitement, Thomas snorted, “You wanted me to meet your friend yesterday, which was her, right? Over the years, you’ve only taken an interest in one woman. I want to see what kind of person she is.” Regardless of what he thought, the mere idea of Thomas meeting Claudia made Waldron’s lips curl into a smile. Thomas saw this and interpreted it differently. Thomas thought, “If Waldron really has feelings for that girl, it would be a big problem. Better to nip it in the bud.” In the hospital, by Edmond’s bedside. Cicely held Edmond’s and Rosalie’s hands; her voice choked with
emotion. “My dear Tristen, listen to me. Marry Rosalie. She will bring you luck. Look at your injuries…” Cicely hesitated, her eyes red. Edmond sighed, “The fire was caused by a short circuit. It was a simple accident.” “That’s why you need luck!” Cicely’s pupils contracted at the word en neo Chapter 2) She Can’t Possibly Be Seraphina 40 Vouche “fire,” and she quickly hugged him. “You are my treasure. Among my two sons, you are my favorite. Listen to me and consider marrying Rosalie.” Rosalie glanced nervously at Edmond upon hearing “You are my favorite.” Edmond lowered his eyes, his lips tightly pressed, his face slightly pale. Cicely continued, “Your brother is not as sensible as you. If it were him, I wouldn’t care. But you are the heir to the Lamont family. Only if you marry Rosalie can you secure your position as the heir.” Rosalie felt her scalp tingle as she listened to Cicely’s biased words. Seeing Edmond’s gloomy face, Rosalie wished she could immediately cover Cicely’s mouth. She had only mentioned the idea of “luck” to Cicely, not expecting her to reveal her favoritism so openly. Tristen had been the pride of the Lamont family and Cicely’s pride. Rosalie had to admit that someone like Tristen was indeed worthy of his parents’ pride. A perfect high achiever, polite, handsome, and fair in his dealings. Tristen and Ervin had been the talk of Wellfort. Back then, Edmond, apart from getting into trouble and being good- looking, had no merits. After Tristen’s death, Edmond had transformed overnight into a cold and decisive heir to the Lamont family. But even so, in Cicely’s eyes, he was still the Edmond who had no merits. Cicely, who had lost her memory, only had Tristen in her heart. Knowing this harsh reality, Edmond had become indifferent If it had been before, he would have been hurt, but now, he had long since become indifferent.
Thinking about the diagnosis regarding his mother, Edmond looked at her expectant eyes. The words reached his lips but were ultimately swallowed back. Even if the rumors about Edmond and Rosalie were outrageous, he had never really considered marrying Rosalie, But Cicely didn’t have much time left. Edmond thought, “Claudia and I will eventually divorce anyway, If I can’t marry the one I love, then it doesn’t matter whom I marry.” A weight seemed to press on his heart, making the red veins in his eyes more prominent. His voice was h oa rse and tinged with repression, “I’ll consider it.” Hearing this, Rosalie was so happy that tears swirled in her eyes. Edmond said he would consider it! 22 Ring Her to Me 40 VouchersContent property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.
