Derek didn't know how to lay it out.
If he remembered correctly, Cali, the eldest lady of the Smiths, died a decade ago.
She had been unmarried and had given birth to a girl whose father was unknown. Although no one dared to say anything to that child under the protection of Old Master Smith. But many people laughed at her and said she was the bastard of Cali and an unknown man.
This, in any case, was disgraceful.
"What's wrong with you? What's going on? That the Smiths, doesn't exist anymore?"
"No, this the Smiths, as I said, is a famous family in Capital City, and there is indeed a woman named Cali..."
"Then where is she now?"
Meredith could not help but hold her breath. The thought of what she was about to hear next, about her own mother, made her nervous.
"She's... gone."
It was not that Derek wanted to broke her expectations at the moment, but people couldn't come back to life after death. Cali had died many years ago, and even if he wanted to hide it from her, he couldn't.
The expression on Meredith's face froze and her eyes gradually dimmed.
She didn't even know how to face her biological parents because she didn't know who they were.
But now, knowing that her biological mother had passed away, she felt nothing but heaviness in her heart.
If a person were alive, there would be countless possibilities ahead of them, but now that Cali was no longer alive, there would be nothing left.
...
Meredith was silent for a while. Derek sensed her sadness and quickly grabbed her shoulder, trying to give her some strength.
Meredith paused for a moment. "What about that girl?"
"Her name is Evelyn, the Miss of the Smiths."
When Meredith heard that the girl was fine, her sadness eased a little.
"What kind of person is she?"
Meredith couldn't help but ask.
The girl who had exchanged life with her. How was her life now? And what was her character?
Derek hesitated for a moment. He didn't have much impression of Evelyn.
He only remembered Old Master Smith set him up with her. And her character was very arrogant, spoiled. At the first sight of her, he didn't like her much.
"I've met her, but it was a long time ago. Well, I'll get someone to check her for you right away."
When she heard this, she thought it was feasible and nodded. "Thank you."
He immediately sent someone out to investigate Evelyn.
Not long after, a document was sent to the two of them.
Meredith immediately took it over and read it carefully. First, there were a few photos of Evelyn. She immediately saw if she looked like Amelia.
But they didn't look very alike.
She thought maybe it was the shooting angle of photos or photoshopped. She might need to see her in person. So she didn't obsessed with this.
However, as she continued to look at her blood type, she was stunned.
"Impossible..."
She muttered to himself.
Derek saw her and immediately asked, "What's wrong? What's impossible?"
"Her blood type is ab, but my mother... she's o."
