Chapter 446 I Want to Meet That Child

Elijah pretended to be calm and composed as he asked, "Could you tell

me about it?"

"I did plan to tell you about it. After all, even if I don't tell you, you will

come to ask me sooner or later.” Cordelia frowned.

To avoid disrupting the hard-won peace between them, Cordelia

decided to inform Elijah in advance.

After hearing her words, Elijah became even more nervous.

"Cordelia, could you answer my question first?" Elijah suddenly

interrupted her.

Cordelia smiled helplessly and indulgently, saying, "Sure, go ahead and

ask."

"Before this, you mentioned that we haven't seen each other for two

years, and both of us have had different experiences and circumstances.

Were you hinting at this matter?”

Elijah's expression turned slightly unpleasant.

Although he tried his best to repress his emotions, they still

inadvertently showed on his face.

Cordelia was stunned for a moment, then nodded.

Elijah's gaze finally changed, suddenly becoming sharp. "Is he a

foreigner?”

After all, Cordelia had been staying abroad for the past two years, so it

was unlikely that she was in a relationship at home.

Cordelia didn't understand at first, but two seconds later, she realized

he had misunderstood her.

"Elijah, you..." Cordelia couldn't help but laugh. "You now seem like

someone with their mind on love."

Elijah twitched her mouth, but he maintained a serious expression.

"Well, what do you want to confess to me? Isn't it about your foreign

romance?"

"Romance? I've been so busy these past two years. Where could I find

time for romance?" Cordelia rolled her eyes at him, then said seriously,

"What I want to tell you is about someone else who is very important to

me."

Elijah suddenly became a little confused.

He set aside his curiosity and patiently listened as Cordelia told her

story.

Of course, this story was purely made up by Cordelia.

But for her adoption of Amy to make sense, she needed to provide a

reasonable explanation.

So, this story was born.

Amy's father died before she was born. Shortly after her birth, her

mother passed away.

Coincidentally, this couple lived right next to the apartment Cordelia

rented. Amy's father was a respected police officer who died in the line

of duty.

Before Amy's mother died, she entrusted Amy to Cordelia. However,

due to the complicated adoption process, Cordelia only recently

brought the child back to the country.

Elijah looked at Cordelia in surprise.

"You... adopted a child?"

"Yes! I like children, and I probably won't be able to have any of my

own in this lifetime. I feel that Amy might be a little angel sent by

heaven to be by my side again,” Cordelia said with her eyes welled up

with tears.

Elijah immediately felt sorry for her.

Wasn't it just about adopting a child? As long as she didn't adopt a

husband, he could accept it!

So he quickly accepted Amy's existence and directly considered Amy as

their jointly adopted daughter.

"Cordelia, I want to meet that child. Where is she now?" Elijah asked.

"She's with Mr. Carter. Mr. Carter gave Amy an official name, Aimee

Carter," Cordelia replied with a smile.

Elijah had no objections to this.

After all, Amy was the child Cordelia adopted, and being able to carry

the surname of Carter was a great fortune for Amy.

From this point of view, this child was really lucky.
