Chapter 539: You Might Really Be
Baron Stuart looked at her calmly for a few seconds, without speaking.
Emily Walker stared at him in a daze, waiting for his answer, but realized that he was just staring at her motionlessly, and couldn’t help but become aware of her own eagerness and anticipation that she shouldn’t have had.
She lowered her head, trying to explain, “I just…”
“Suspect you are the Walker family’s lost child?”
As soon as Baron Stuart said this, Emily suddenly raised her head, her eyes full of surprise as she looked at him, momentarily forgetting what she was about to say.
After half a moment, Emily recovered from her shock, “Baron Stuart…”
Baron Stuart pulled her into his embrace, his thin lips slightly parted, his expression thoughtful, “You might really be their daughter.”
“…” Hearing this, Emily pushed him away, her eyes flashing with astonishment and disbelief, “Why, why would you say that?”
Baron Stuart looked at her, the sexy curve of his mouth lifting slightly, and then raised his chin and narrowed his eyes, as if pondering the question, “Because your husband, me… has enough power, and found out in no time that the Walker family had lost a child twenty years ago, but they still thought the child was dead.”
Emily looked up, momentarily at a loss.
It was true that the Walker family had indeed lost a child twenty years ago, but why was Baron Stuart so sure it was her?
“Why, why do you think it’s me?”
Baron Stuart lowered his head, his ink-jade-like star eyes staring at her intently. After a long time, he said softly, “Don’t you think so yourself?”
It was her recent strange behavior that led him to thoroughly investigate the disaster that happened twenty years ago in the Walker family.
Emily was ninety percent likely to be the lost child of the Walker family.
Because twenty years ago, Wilson Carter and Clarissa Adams had also been to the place where the disaster occurred, and after returning to their country, they inexplicably had one more child.
Now, if they really wanted to prove whether Emily was the child of Baxter Walker and Angela Reid, a simple DNA test would reveal the truth.
Upon hearing this, Emily was stunned. She indeed thought so in her heart, but how did Baron Stuart know?
And how did he come to investigate the events of twenty years ago without her knowing?
She looked at him with fiery eyes, this man, he’s so mysterious.
No, it was her husband.
She lowered her head, her expression somewhat gloomy, “Angela Reid once came to me. She has a mandarin duck stone identical to mine and told me that I could be her lost daughter from back then. But at that time, I always believed my parents were my biological parents, so I denied it. Later, when I heard my aunt say such things, I became suspicious, unsure whether it was true or not…I have no idea…”
Baron Stuart’s gaze fell, carefully observing the changes in her facial expression, “Do you want to know? The truth.”
Emily raised her eyes, looking at him in surprise.
Then, she lowered her head again, “Not yet, not for now.”
At least at this time, she didn’t want to know the result.
She didn’t want to try that kind of feeling, and didn’t want to experience the taste of loss just after confirming her biological mother.
Before the bone marrow test results came out, and before Angela Reid’s condition improved, she didn’t want to know.
Hearing this, Baron Stuart couldn’t help but frown, “Why?”
She was so worried about Angela Reid, and so anxious. Didn’t she want to know the truth earlier?
