Chapter 159 The Child's Father

"My mother said that if I marry Jacob, she will give me half of her

family's shares as a gift. I won't have to work in the future...” Lamia

laughed loudly.

Cordelia was surprised, and she also felt happy for Lamia's vigor and

positivity.

At this time, not far away, Elijah’s cold voice sounded. "If you can't

change your laughter, you will never be able to marry into the Taylor

family.”

Cordelia and Lamia turned their heads together and found that Elijah

was standing not far behind them. Perhaps he had been listening to

their conversation for a long time.

"Elijah." Cordelia reached out to Elijah.

Elijah stepped forward and naturally held Cordelia's soft hand in his

palm.

Feeling that Cordelia's hand was cold, Elijah frowned slightly and

immediately took off his coat and put it on Cordelia.

Seeing Elijah's movements, Lamia's eyes widened.

She said, "Elijah, did I see wrong? I remember you didn't know how to

take care of people!”

Elijah stared at Lamia with sharp eyes, and she immediately shut up.

Cordelia explained, "Elijah is a reserved man, and he doesn't bother to

show affection in front of others.”

Elijah's cell phone rang. He ignored Lamia and went to answer the

phone.

Lamia approached Cordelia and hugged her arm. "Cordelia, did you

teach Elijah? He never took care of women before.”

Cordelia said, "I didn't. Maybe Eva taught him."

Thinking of Eva's squeamish appearance, Cordelia was surer of her

guess.

However, Lamia denied it.

She said, "When Elijah was with Eva, he didn't take care of her so

naturally as he did to you. He would only do what Eva wanted.”

As Lamia said that, she started acting vividly.

At this time, the servant came to the yard to call them. It was time for

dinner.

In the dining room, Gideon sat at the main seat.

Today he was wearing a suit with white patterns, and his gray hair was

neatly pulled back on his head. His face was radiant, and he was full of

spirit.

He said, "I have something to announce to you today. Baxter's family

has a new kid."

There was silence in the dining room.

It was Gabe who applauded first. "That's good. Congratulations to

Baxter's family!"

Edith raised her head and gave Gabe a hard look. She asked Gideon,

"Dad, what is going on?"

Gideon smiled and said, "Aaron has a first love..."

Hearing Gideon's words, the people present had different expressions.

This matter was too dramatic

Besides, Aaron had an extramarital affair and had an illegitimate child.

His character was very bad

However, Gideon didn't care about this at all for the sake of the child.

"I'm leaving for Tarssa City tomorrow to meet that child. During my

absence, Gabe will be in charge of the family affairs,” Gideon said with a

smile.

At this moment, Cordelia's cell phone rang.

She glanced at her phone and frowned.

It was Ottilie who hadn't contacted her for a long time.

Cordelia quickly left the table and went to the living room to answer

the phone.

"Cordelia, what should I do? They took my child away!" Ottilie said.

Cordelia frowned and said, "Ottilie, calm down. Tell me slowly, who took

your child away?"

"It's the child's father. He took the child away.” As Ottilie spoke, she

began to cry.

"Ottilie, you have to tell me who is the father of the child. Who is he?"

Cordelia had a strange feeling that this person might be...

Ottilie cried. "The child's father is Aaron!"
