After greeting the two elders, Pedro and Valerie noticed me. A look of surprise fell on their faces when they saw me. They looked at Anthony and asked, "Master Miller, who is this person beside you?"
Anthony said with a smile, "This is Arianna. She's a staff member of our company, and she's here with Irvin today."
Pedro and Valerie looked at each other, still looking surprised. "Arianna?" Their eyes fell on me, confused.
"Mr. Moore, this girl looks just like President Lin when she was younger. If it wasn't for the fact that your family has already brought your daughter back, I would have thought that she is your daughter," Charles, who was about the same age as Pedro, teased.
Many people agreed with what he said even though this was met with surprise by the elderly couple. They then looked at Valerie and me carefully.
After a while, he said, "I have to admit that the similarity is uncanny. Her nose is very similar to Pedro's, and she is tall and delicate. If Pedro hadn't already gotten his daughter back, I would have thought her to be your biological daughter."
Everyone laughed hearing this. Pedro glanced at Valerie before focusing his gaze at me. He bunched his eyebrows as he looked on.
After Irvin was done entertaining the guests, he walked in and said with a smile, "I can't believe everyone thinks so. Why don't we let Mr. Moore recognize Arianna as his goddaughter so that we can have more good news today?"
Hearing that, I couldn't mask my surprise. I didn't understand what Irvin was trying to say.
