Chapter 255
Carissa anticipated such a misunderstanding. While she had previously said she understood, in reality, she didn’t fully comprehend.
It was just like when she had rushed to Eldoria upon receiving Rafael’s letter. Despite her efforts to temper her hopes, she couldn’t help but go and see for herself.
So, hearing Anthony’s words now, her temper flared. She turned, threw back the curtain, and lifted Ryan up. The two stood before Anthony.
With a cold voice, Carissa said, “At least take a good look. Throughout the journey, Ryan wrote messages in my hand, worried that you might reject him. I reassured him that you wouldn’t.”
Anthony was reluctant, but he instinctively glanced at the child she was holding.
In that one glance, he realized just how wrong he had been.
In that brief moment, his heart almost stopped.
The resemblance was undeniable.
Although Ryan was now gaunt and not as chubby and adorable as before, the similarity was unmistakable.
Anthony’s lips trembled, and his eyes quickly filled with tears.
He tentatively called out, “Ryan?”
Ryan’s tears fell relentlessly, and he struggled to be set down.
Carissa gently set him down, and he extended his hand, making a high–five gesture towards Anthony. Then, with two fingers, Ryan drew an imaginary shape resembling an inkpot in the air.
After making the gesture, Ryan lowered his hands, his shoulders shaking as he cried.
Seeing the gesture, Anthony felt as though his heart was being torn apart.
This gesture was something only he and Ryan knew.
A month before the incident, when Anthony and Sophia visited Northwatch Estate to see Yvette and Ryan. Ryan had shown him his schoolwork, and Anthony had praised Ryan’s writing. Anthony also gave Ryan a high–five, promising that if Ryan continued to work hard and received the teacher’s praise, Anthony would gift him an inkpot from Ebonwood.
Ryan had mentioned that it was his teacher who told him that the ink made in Ebonwood was the finest.
