Chapter 259 Your Mother Is My Biological Mother
Finished
Elaine rolled her eyes. She was about to mock him, but noticed a hint of uncertainty in the gazes of the people around her
Zendaya seemed to have stiffened as well.
Elaine was momentarily at a loss whether to laugh or cry. Is my sister worried that I fancy her?
Zendaya was truly taken aback. After all, strictly speaking, she certainly didn’t know Elaine as well as Clifford did. She wasn’t sure whether what Clifford said was true or false.
It was true that Elaine was treating her so well upon their first meeting.
Looking back now, even though there was a mutual affinity between them, Elaine’s kindness towards her was so overwhelming that it left her somewhat perplexed.
Not to mention, she was somewhat guilty. She had liked other boys in the past, but those feelings were different from what she now felt for Elaine. This was also the first time Zendaya had such a peculiar fondness for a woman she had just met.
So, she was also somewhat flustered.
Isabella and Alexander naturally knew the reason. They just weren’t sure if Elaine would explain it.
I remember hearing that even if two family members don’t know each other, they would feel an affinity upon their first meeting. Of course, if this attraction isn’t clearly understood, it could lead to misunderstandings, which would be troublesome.
Isabella was lost in thought for a while. On the other side, Elaine had gradually made up her mind, although it was not in line with her original plan.
She swiftly raised her hand, flinging the documents she held straight onto Clifford’s face.
“Open your eyes and see clearly. What kind of nonsense have you filled your head with? Of course I care about her more than you!”
After speaking. Elaine didn’t bother with Clifford’s reaction. She turned her head to look at Zendaya.
“Zeya, I’m sorry. I initially wanted to find a separate time to talk to you about this, but it’s all because of this idiot! Now that things have escalated to this point, others might be misled by this idiot into thinking that we have a strange relationship if we don’t clarify it now. I don’t really care, but your reputation can’t be ruined by this idiot any longer. I’ll announce it ahead of time. You are actually my half–sister. We share the same mother but have different fathers.”
Elaine’s statement hit everyone like a bolt out of the blue.
Everyone began to question whether they were hallucinating. They couldn’t believe this crazy revelation.
“The person Clifford found as Elaine’s stand–in is actually Elaine’s younger sister?”
“Same mother, different fathers? So, they share the same mother? Wait, my brain’s a bit muddled. I’m having a hard time wrapping my head around this.”

As they were talking, they heard Clifford shout, “How could this be?”
At that moment, someone quickly discerned the contents of the document.
“It’s a professional assessment. They are biologically related.”
“I was just thinking that it’s such a coincidence that they really do look alike.”
“Wow, this is… huge news.”
Finished
Aside from Isabella and Alexander who didn’t rush over in excitement, the other friends had already gathered around Clifford.
“It’s true!” exclaimed Roland in astonishment.
“The amount of information today is just overwhelming.” Ines and Aiden were both taken aback. Do such coincidences actually exist?
Damien’s mouth twitched in disbelief. What on earth was happening? Previously, Clifford was even plotting against the two sisters.
Deborah exclaimed in surprise, “Elaine, does your family have a missing child?”
Zendaya suddenly blurted out, “How could that be? I have parents. I…
This news was so shocking that Zendaya found it hard to accept it.
Elaine held Zendaya’s hand and said earnestly, “Your mother is indeed my biological mother. The woman I now call my mother is my stepmother. However, this information isn’t widely known back home. The moment I saw you, I felt an immediate connection. It must be the blood ties at work. I had doubts earlier. so I took some of your hair for a DNA test. There’s no mistake. We truly are sisters,”
Elaine continued, her voice tinged with anxiety, “Don’t you want me as your sister? Your parents have passed away, so I’m the only family you have left. I regret not discovering your existence sooner, leaving you to endure many hard years in the orphanage. But rest assured. From now on, no one will be able to make you suffer again.”
Based on Elaine’s investigation into Zendaya, they both shared a similarly tragic fate.
When she was five years old, that woman ran away. When Zendaya was four, that woman passed away. Neither of them had ever experienced motherly love fully. They were truly sisters in hardship.
Yet, she had a loving father and stepmother, living a life akin to a pampered heiress. On the other hand, Zendaya had been raised in a less–than–comfortable orphanage, growing up in solitude and hardship.
Reflecting on the hardships that Zendaya had endured over the years, Elaine was heartbroken to see her willingly playing the role of a stand–in, all for the sake of money.
Previously, Elaine had always been flamboyant. But in that moment, she was gazing at Zendaya with the most tender and affectionate gaze.
Zendaya couldn’t bear it. She realized that her affection for Elaine was genuine familial love rooted in blood ties.
Upon reflection, it didn’t seem quite as hard to accept.

One could say that this was like a windfall from the heavens.
Zendaya was bombarded by a whirlwind of emotions, leaving her somewhat dazed.
“Do you really not want me as your sister?” Elaine began to play the victim.
Zendaya immediately shook her head and said, “No, what I want is…”
Immediately, she started to feel both awkward and embarrassed.
Finished.
“Call me Ellie.” Elaine’s eyes sparkled, yet her lips trembled slightly, as if she was anticipating something wonderful to happen.
Zendaya paused for a moment. Under Elaine’s expectant gaze, she finally called out, “Ellie.”
In an instant, Elaine’s eyes moistened.
None of their friends had ever seen Elaine in such a manner.
They were all dumbstruck.
