Jessica became more and more interested in Emily.
"Uncle Gavin, could you please give me a look at what auntie left you?" She said.
Gavin knew that it was a good opportunity for Jessica to know about Emily.
It was the first time when she tried to know about her mother after she grew up. Gavin was willing to tell her everything that had happened in the past.
Then he took out all the things about Emily.
He told Jessica about every photo of Emily, as well as the cheerful or unhappy things that had happened to them in the past.
Jessica did notice that so many years had passed away after Emily's death. When she heard about so many things from Gavin, everything in the past seemed to be vivid for her.
In a pile of photos, she suddenly found a photo of Emily sitting in the garden of the Youngren family.
At that time, Emily's smile was so enchanting.
Actually, she had seen this photo in the photo album of the Youngren family when she was young.
She got to know why she felt very familiar when she saw Emily's pictures. It was sure that she had seen her photo before.
At that time, Nanny Zamani, who had been a servant of the Youngren family, pointed at Emily's photo and said to her, "This is your mother."
But she denied, "No, this is not the picture of my mom."
It was the only photo that was left in the photo album. Perhaps Zelda was too careless to take it away.
However, although Jessica was young, she knew about different people. With one glance, she could tell that the smiling woman in the photo was not Zelda, her mother at that time.
But Nanny Zamani insisted that the woman was her mother.
At that time, she was crying to complain to Zelda. Then Nanny Zamani gave her the chocolate to stop her crying.
Jessica suddenly remembered that when she saw Lucas's birthday photo that day, she found their birthdays were the same day.
It couldn't be such a coincidence.
The more times Jessica looked at Emily's photo, the more confused she became.
Why did Nanny Zamani point at her aunt's photo and say that was her mother?
At that time, Nanny coaxed her into not telling others of the Youngren family the fact that Emily was her mother.
She looked at Gavin with her big eyes and asked, "Uncle Gavin, was Lucas born on the same day as me?"
"Jessica, you have known everything?" Gavin was a little excited.
His daughter was so smart that she must have learned something from his words.
And Jessica's doubts seemed to be solved by Gavin.
However, they didn't put their real kinship on the table.
After all, it was after more than 20 years that the father met his daughter for the first time.
It would be unrealistic for them to be as intimate as normal fathers and daughters.
Gavin was willing to give Jessica more time to accept the fact, the new home and the long-lost family.
Jessica almost knew the fact when she saw Gavin's expression.
She suddenly stood up and said, "I'm tired. I'm gonna go back to have a rest."
It was hard for her to accept the sudden information in a short time.
When Jessica was about to get out, Lucas came to the door of the study.
He came here to ask his father about Jessica's whereabouts because he couldn't find Jessica anywhere. He didn't expect her to be in his father's study."
"Jessica." Lucas called her name.
"I wanna go upstairs now." Jessica left.
Lucas found the air in the room was not good.
"Father, have you told Jessica?"
