Chapter 1314

Debbie smiled teary-eyed, and then something occurred to her. She pulled out a tissue to wipe away

her tears.

“May I ask you something?”

“Sure.”

“If…I mean, if for some cruel reason, your mom was forced to abandon you soon after you were born,

and then she came back after twenty or so years to beg you for forgiveness, would you forgive her?”

Debbie had considered asking Carlos for his opinion about the issue, but she was worried that he might

not understand the mother-daughter relationship since he was a man.

Whereas Miranda was a mother and she would undoubtedly enlighten her on the topic.

Confusion clouded Debbie’s face. Miranda had only to glance at her to understand what was going on.

“All mothers love their children. As a mother, you should know that. Put yourself in your mom’s shoes.

Think about it. If you had to be away from Evelyn for more than twenty years, how would you feel when

you saw her again?”

Debbie was stunned. She had never thought about it that way. If she were Ramona and Evelyn were

her… The more she thought about it, the sadder she grew. Bitter, warm tears flowed from her eyes,

blurring her vision. She wiped her tears away and said to Miranda gratefully, “Thank you, Aunt Miranda.

I know what to do now.”

Miranda continued, “Elroy is heartless. I know a little about the feud between your family and the Loftus

family from when I was in Alorith.

But don’t worry about him. He hasn’t done anything to you so far. That only means he’s afraid of

Carlos. Maybe you should ask Carlos for help?”

Debbie shook her head.

“I don’t want to involve Carlos in this. He’s already swamped. I can handle it myself.”

“Okay, if you’ve already made your decision. I sympathize with your mom. We were both forced to be

apart from our children for many years.

Believe me. Those years were very tough. She must be dying to make it up to you.”

Debbie and Miranda talked for two hours at the tea house.

Afterward, she went back to work, and Miranda went to the mall to pick out a gift for Evelyn. She

wanted to meet the little girl before she flew back to New York.

It was just after 6 p.m.

Miranda sat in the living room, waiting for Evelyn to come home from kindergarten. This was their first

meeting, and all of a sudden Miranda got butterflies in her stomach.

She wondered if the little girl would Like her. What if she didn’t Like the present she bought her?

At half past six Miranda heard a car pull into the villa. She anxiously walked out of the Living room and

stood at the entrance.

The silver Emperor rolled to a halt at the gate of the villa. Carlos stepped out of the car while Evelyn

was playing with a toy in the baby seat. Then he walked to the back door and carried her out.

“Daddy, is that Nanna?” Evelyn asked in her sweet baby voice when she saw Miranda with her big

eyes blinking.

Carlos had told her about Miranda on the way home.

A few days ago, when Carlos went to pick Evelyn up from kindergarten, he told her that he was her

birth father. He worried that the Little girl might not take the news well. To his surprise, she wrapped her

little arms around his neck and called him “Daddy” happily.

Carlos was much relieved, and his heart melted when she did that.
