Chapter 234
Hackett knitted his brows as he sat there.
Elena?

And she was lost for 20 years? In that case, the Maddox family hail an elder daughter, but she was lost.
Clayton glanced at Hackett and felt his wife had embarrassed high in front of his future son-in-law. He slammed his palm on the dining table hard and snarled, "We're discussing Elsie's engagement now. Why did you bring up Elena? Did Elena's loss back then have nothing to do with you? Do you dare to say that it has nothing to do with you? Now that we only have Elsie as our daughter, I have to find a good man for her to take care of her for us
Loretta started to cry. Every time she thought of Elena, she could not help but want to cry.
"I miss Elena so much. I want to know if she's dead or alive now, Is she well-fed? Is she doing well..."
"Alright, stop arguing. It's a shame of you to argue in front of our guest!" Elsie's grandmother, Rhonda, could not stand it anymore and reprimanded the couple, who were almost 50 years old.
Elsie also could not take it anymore.
She burst out, "That's enough! Can you guys stop mentioning my sister's name in front of me? Is it my fault that my sister is missing? Why are you guys forcing all the pressure on me after she's lost? What have I ever done wrong?"
Since her sister had lost when Elsie was young, her mother had been depressed. Her father had never stopped looking for his sister, but after using all kinds of methods to search for Elen, they still could not find her after 20 years. Sometimes, Elsie felt like she was her sister's substitute. It was because her sister was lost that her parents and grandmother gave all their love to her.
if her sister was found and returned to the family one day, would her family have to take back all their love!
"Elsie..." Loretta stopped crying and looked at her daughter in a daze.
Elsie covered her face and ran out of the dining room.
Hackett seemed to have smelled a business opportunity. He narrowed his eyes slightly. Clayton had searched Elena for 20 years but could not find her. He looked like an incompetent father.
If Hackett helped the Maddox family find Elena, the sly Clayton would probably advance the plan.
Otherwise, Clayton would only help Hackett retake his shares after he and Elsie married. Hackett's aunt would probably have already transferred the assets overseas by then.
Hackett stood up slowly, I'll go and see Elsie."
With that, he walked out of the dining room.
Elsie ran all the way out, crying. She stood in the garden and looked at the sea of flowers, but her tears kept falling
After a while, Hackett's tall figure appeared behind her.
Elsie looked back and thought that Hackett was trying to comfort her. She snapped, "Don't try to comfort me! Let me be alone for a while!"
Hackett sneered and sat on a rattan chair. "You're wrong about me. I'm not trying to comfort you."

He did not care if Elsie was in a bad mood. All he wanted to know was information that would be useful to him. Elsie was confused.
She thought she had misheard. Usually, men would seize the chance to comfort women under such circumstances. "Then why are you here?"
Hackett said, "I want to ask about your sister. You have an older sister called Elena?"
"Why do you care? My sister has been missing for 20 years. Do you think you can find her?" Elsie replied sulkily.
Hackett smiled. "What if I can find her? It's a good thing for your family."
Elsie turned around and wiped her tears. She stared at the man in front of her. "If you can find my sister, my father and the rest of the family will retract their focus on me. By then, everyone will be free and happy." "That's exactly what I'm thinking. When the time comes, you can also live the life you like."
and find
"Then hurry up my sister! She's been missing for 20 years. Where the hell are you going to find her? My father has searched for her for over 20 years but has no clue of her yet."
She did not believe that Hackett could ever find Elena.
Hackett asked again, "So you should tell me some information about your sister. Do you have photos of her or something like that?"
"Elena was only six years old when she was lost. If she were still alive, she would be 26 years old now. Of course, there are no photos of her now."
"I'm talking about when she was young. I can use high-tech teclmology to predict her appearance after she grew up." Hackett' said.
Elsie realized that Hackett was quite reliable when he was serious. She could not help but believe everything he said.
"There are photos from when she was young, but it's hard to say if my sister is still alive..."
"We can only pray that she is still alive. As long as she is still alive, she can save us," Hackett said with a faint smile.
After a while, Elsie returned to her room with Hackett to get the photos. Clayton watched them from afar.
Clayton felt that he had not misjudged Hackett. Elsie was usually not easy to comfort when she cried, but Hackett managed. her from crying with just a few words.
to stop
"Elsie, I hope you understand my good intentions for you." Clayton sighed.
He had lost a daughter. He had to entrust his other daughter to a good man before he could be at ease,NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.
In Elsie's bedroom.
That was Elsie's first time bringing a man into her bedroom. She was not used to it
and
She awkwardly picked up a photo frame from the bedside table. It was a photo of herself and her sister when they were young in it. She handed it to Hackett. "Here, this is the only photo of me and my sister. I was three years old that year, my sister was six. That was when my sister was lost." Hackett took the photo frame and glanced at it. Just that glance made his heart skip a beat
For some reason, he felt that the little girl in the photo looked very familiar. He seemed to have seen her eyes and brows
Au
somewhere before....
The little girl in the photo had her hair in a cute ponytail and was holding an ice cream in her hand. She stood under the sunlight and smiled so brightly and lovely.
Why did this little face look so familiar? Had he seen it somewhere before?
But Hackett could not remember where he had seen that face before.
"Can you give me this photo? It'll be easier for me to find someone to restore your sister's future appearance."
"Okay, take it. If you can find my sister, I will admit you are amazing." Elsie did not believe that Hackett could find her sister. After all, her sister had been lost for 20 years. Hackett said, "I'll just give it a try."
Hence, Hackett took the photo frame and left the Maddox family's villa. Before he left, Clayton's voice suddenly came from behind. "Hackett, what are you doing with that photo frame?" Hackett stopped in his tracks and turned to look at Clayton. "Elsie was so adorable in this photo when she was a little girl, so I wanted to take it and put it on my desk."
"Don't hide it from me. You want to find Elena, right?" Clayton smiled.
Clayton was indeed clever, and one could not hide anything from him.
Clayton added, "Don't waste your time. I've been looking for her for 20 years."
"Let me give it a try. There might be a miracle." Hackett left with the photo frame. Clayton looked at Hackett back and sighed deeply.
