Beau furrowed his brows and subconsciously grabbed Elizaâs arm. âWhatâs wrong?â âDonât blame meâ¦â
She bit her lips and stared at him with blurred eyes. âI want to help you find herâ¦â âIf sheâs alive⦠I hope that Braint and Demarion get to see their biological motherâ¦â âAfter all⦠Iâm not their biological mother.â
She closed her eyes. Her voice sounded very ambiguous because she was drunk, but he could still understand what she meant. âAt least we should let her take a look at Braint and Demarion. They are so adorableâ¦â âI want to know why she left, why she didnât come back to find you even though she didnât dieâ¦â âI also want to know.â Eliza closed her eyes and said, âThereâs a lot of evidence showing that I should have been pregnant at the same time as her and we gave birth at the same time.â âI must know her, I must know her!â âI want to find her⦠I want to ask her what my child looked like.â âI also want to knowâ¦â As she spoke, her voice gradually lowered. âI also want to know if my child is really deadâ¦â âI suspect that my child is still aliveâ¦â âIf he really died, why did they wipe away my memories? Why did they treat me like a mad personâ¦â In the end, her voice even sounded like she was about to cry. âYou have your own children.â âI want to find my child, tooâ¦â âAlthough I donât know what I can do after I find himâ¦â âI may not hear him call me Mom.â âBut⦠as long as there is hope, I donât want to give upâ¦â âMy biological mother is an irresponsible mother. My father said that sheâs still alive and told me that if I want to find her one day, I can take the jade pendant to find herâ¦â âBut I donât want to find her at all, and I donât care about that jade pendant⦠Otherwise, I wouldnât have skipped searching for it for such a long timeâ¦â âBecause in all these years, regardless of whether it was me or Esme, she never looked for us.
She never looked for her daughterâ¦â Elizaâs tears crashed down. âDad said that mom isnât an ordinary person. Sheâs someone very powerful..â âSince she is that powerful, she should be able to find me if she wanted toâ¦â âShe just doesnât want to look for me.â âI canât be like her⦠Even if I canât find my child, I have to work hard to find himâ¦â With that, she raised her red and swollen eyes and looked at him. âDo you understand me?â âFor Braint and Demarion, and for myself⦠I want to find Chasityâ¦â Beau held her tightly in his arms. After a while, he sighed and raised his hand to gently touch her face to wipe away the tears from her eyes. âYou are a better drinker now.â Every time she got drunk, she would be so irrational. But now, she was serious, rational, and could express herself well. âIâ¦â Eliza raised her eyes and looked at him with a charming smile. After a while, she leaned over and kissed his lips. âGloria gave me some hangover medicine.â Because she had been in the entertainment circle for a long time, Gloria always knew that there were some drinking sessions that she could not turn down. Therefore, she always brought hangover pills with her. After Eliza defeated those people just now, she stuffed two pills into her mouth. Elizaâs words made Beauâs eyes narrow. âSo youâve been sober from the moment I went to look for you?â âNot very clear-headed.â Eliza smiled embarrassedly, âStill a little dizzyâ¦â After that, she hugged Beauâs neck and planted a peck on his face. âBut Iâm still quite rational.â âLittle scoundrel.â He lifted her chin and gently bit it. âYou pretended to be drunk and let me take care of you, huh?â âI really thought you were drunk. I took you upstairs, fed you with water, and showered you.â âWell, I know you donât regard me as a substitute.â Eliza avoided him and smiled as she lay in his embrace. âSoâ¦â Eliza blushed. âI think I should do something for you and the two children.â âToday, Lucija and Joye kept saying that I am Chasityâs substitute.â âBut Iâm not angry at all.â She raised her hand and placed it on his chest.
âI know I have a place in your heart. Iâm not a substitute.â No matter how much others talked about it, they couldnât upset her as she knew his true thoughts. Whatâs more⦠Yesterday in his office, she said that she would deal with Lucija and go find Chasity. But he was afraid that she would be hurt and strongly opposed the idea. After they had a quarrel, she went home in a fit of pique to look for Braint and planned together with him. Although he quarreled with her on the surface and had a cold war with her.
But in fact, he had always been concerned about her. She knew that his people were following her.
Whatâs more⦠He left his companyâs affairs behind and went to the roadside stall to protect her. He also took her to the hotel when she was drunk and did everything for her. Wasnât this more convincing than Lucija and Joyeâs mouth? Thinking of this, Eliza took a deep breath. âI still managed to get something today.â Beau looked down at her. âWhatâs it?â âJoyeâs cousin is the director of the psychiatric hospital.â
âGloria helped me find out that there was a woman who had experienced fire was sent to the psychiatric hospital to get her memory wiped.â Then she raised her head and looked at him with her clear eyes. âI think this woman who had experienced the fire⦠is Chasity.â Beauâs brows knitted together. âGo now or tomorrow?â Eliza was stunned. âWhat?â âAre we going to look for Joyeâs cousin now, or tomorrow?â Eliza paused, and a look of happiness flashed through her eyes. âHoney, are you willing to help me investigate it?â âIf not?â He raised his hand and pinched her nose gently. âCan I not help after you told me so much?â
âYou are my wife. If I donât spoil you, who else would?â His words were deep and elegant, and his voice was serious. Elizaâs face instantly turned red. She bit her lips and stammered, âThank youâ¦â âWhat are you thanking me for?â He sighed, picked up his phone, and called Noah. âInvestigate the current director of the psychiatric hospital.â âKeep an eye on her after you find her.â âWeâll go see her tomorrow morning.â
After that, he hung up the phone. Eliza looked up. âTomorrow morning?â âThatâs right.â Beau raised his hand and rubbed her head. âIt takes time to investigate. Noah is not God.â âWe couldnât have gone there tonight.â âYouâve been tired all day. Have a good rest first. Weâll go to see her tomorrow after we get up.â
Eliza pursed her lips and nodded obediently. They should⦠be able to get some information tomorrow, right?
