Chapter 199

The Chapman residence. Eliza sat in her study, looking through the economics book that she could not understand while listening to the teacher describing the foundation of economics in front of her. Three days had passed since Ethan called the Valentine family. She didn’t place any hope on Sergey’s side, but there was no news from Ethan’s side either. She frowned tightly and felt helpless. In the past three days, she tried to escape from the Chapman family several times, but she failed every time. She was either caught or she didn’t manage to escape. She bit her pencil and stared at the book in the teacher’s hand. Her entire body sank into deep thought. In the beginning, she told Sergey that she could restore the Chapman family’s glory like Shreya. But when she really began to attend classes and learn about the Chapman family’s business, she knew that she was not suited for this. But it was even more impossible for her to marry a stranger. For her, the Chapman family was just a family she had just returned to. She had no sense of belonging to the Chapman family, nor did she consider herself a member of the Chapman family, let alone waste her life’s happiness for the Chapman family. The only thing she wanted to do now was to go to Krine to find her three children, and then catch Beau and make him kneel in front of her to apologize. Thinking of this, Eliza involuntarily turned her head to look at the scenery outside the window, trying to find other ways to escape from the garden.

After a while, the class was over.

The teacher looked helplessly at Eliza while packing up things. “Miss Chapman, with such a learning attitude, it is impossible for you to become an excellent successor of the Chapman family.” Eliza rolled her eyes at him and said, “Who said that I would become an excellent successor of the Chapman family?” She didn’t want to inherit it at all! The teacher sighed, shook his head and left. Eliza didn’t even look at him but continued to sit by the window and look at the small garden outside. Not long after, she noticed that there was a small gap in the northernmost part of the garden. Although the gap was not big, she was thin. It should not be a problem for her to pass through there. She kept looking forward. That gap led to… It was the road outside! Eliza excitedly jumped up from her chair. Just as she was about to go to the gap in the back garden to check it out, a small black figure came in through the gap. Eliza was too far away to see the person’s face clearly. However, she could tell that it was a little boy in black who looked only five or six years old. After the little fellow came in, he looked around in the backyard like a thief. He was in between a rockery when Sergey was hurriedly walking forward with several bodyguards.

That was to say, as long as they turned a corner, they could see the sneaky little guy who had just broken in! Sitting by the second floor study window, Eliza’s eyebrows furrowed. After hesitating for a long time, she still opened the window the second before the butler and the others made a turn.

“Sergey!” Eliza’s crisp voice stunned both Sergey and those people. In the distance, the little boy dressed in black raised his head to look at her in shock. Sensing the shock in the little fella’s eyes, Eliza gave him a look that told him to hurry quickly. Then, with a smile, she leaned against the window and looked at Sergey. “I finished my lessons today.” Sergey frowned and laughed scornfully. “Miss Chapman, have you mastered it?” “Just so so. I have a question. I want to consult you.”

The butler smiled coldly. “I’m going to deal with something right now. I’ll answer your questions once I’m done.” After that, he turned his head and strode away with his followers. After the butler left, Eliza released a long sigh and looked in that little boy’s direction. The little boy in black had already squatted on the rockery. He smiled and waved at her, signaling her to go over. Eliza knitted her eyebrows.

According to her current character, it was already her limit that she could help an unfamiliar boy before Sergey found him. But… She pondered in the study for a long time and finally went downstairs to the small garden. There was a bench in the cave behind the small rockery. When Eliza arrived at the rockery, a little fellow dressed in black was sitting on a bench and smiling at her. “I knew you would come to see me.”

The little fellow, who looked to be five to six years old, blinked his eyes and smiled at Eliza. Eliza knitted her eyebrows. The little fellow looked a little familiar.. But she couldn’t remember when she had seen him. She took a deep breath and looked at him. “What’s your name?” “My name is Demarion.” The little fellow sat on the bench with a smile. “You are my mommy.” Eliza’s entire body froze. After a while, she shook her head and smiled helplessly. “Impossible.” She did have two sons and one daughter, but they were together with Beau in Krine. How could he come to the Chapman family? “It’s possible.” Demarion sighed. “Father knows you’re in the Chapman family, so we came without stopping.” “After we came to Puskia, we found Ethan and knew that you had lost your memory. You couldn’t remember us.” “But I’m your real son!” As the little fellow spoke, he took out a wrinkled DNA identification report from his pocket.

“This is a copy. It clearly says that my mommy is you and daddy is Beau.” Eliza frowned. She took the piece of paper and opened it. “According to the test, the possibility of Demarion and Eliza being related is 99%” Looking at the number on the report, Eliza paused. She looked up and asked, “Are you really my son?” “Of course!” “Then…” She looked in the direction of the gap. “Where are your brother and sister?”

“They are in the hotel!” Demarion looked at Eliza with a smile. “We’re staying in a hotel, which means that father will come to Chapman family to visit tomorrow.” “But I missed you so much that I came to see you secretly.” After saying this, the little fella took a deep breath. He stood up and walked over to Eliza’s side. He stood still in front of Eliza and stretched out his arms silently. “Can you hug me?” “I miss you so much.” Looking at the little fella’s large pitch-black eyes, Eliza’s heart fiercely trembled.

The little fella’s eyes were so beautiful. It was so beautiful that she felt that if she did not promise to hug him today, she would be extremely evil. She took a deep breath and reached out to hold Demarion in her arms. But what she didn’t expect was that when she was holding the Demarion, she suddenly felt a pain in the back! She quickly let go of him, only to find that the Demarion was holding a blood-stained needle in his hand! And the blood on the needle was from her body!
