Piqued by his curiosity, Oliver went forward and asked, "What's going on, Marilyn?"

Marilyn was delighted when she saw Oliver. She hastily said, "Mr. Wright, please go and talk to madam. She has been crying all morning in front of Lady Rosalie's portrait."

Oliver hastily went over and he saw his mother, Luna Harris, holding a portrait of a baby in her hand. Her eyes were wet with tears.

As she looked at the portrait, she used her handkerchief to wipe the tear off the corner of her eyes, for she did not want the falling tear to smear the portrait. Oliver's heart ached when he saw the scene.

His mother missed his sister too much. She would look at the portrait almost every day, and sometimes she would be so overwhelmed by her sadness that she would cry. His mother's health was deteriorating day by day, and all of them were worried about her.

However, there was nothing they could do. Unless they could replace Rosie, everything else was nothing but only a band-aid attempt.

But now, he finally found Rosie, and his mother did not have to cry anymore.

With that thought in mind, Oliver walked into the room and snatched the portrait away from Luna's hand.

Luna jerked her head up when the portrait was gone from her head. When she saw Oliver was holding it, she shouted, "What are you doing, Oliver? Give Rosie back to me."

However, not only did Oliver not do as his mother asked, but he even threw the portrait embedded in a delicate photo frame into the dustbin.

"Mr. Wright!" Even Marilyn was shocked by his action.

Luna charged towards the dustbin like a lunatic, but Oliver stopped her midway. Then, he announced with a deep voice, "We don't need Rosie's photo anymore, Mother. Because... I have found her." "What?" Luna suddenly ceased all her struggle. She turned her head towards Oliver, her face was brimmed with disbelief.

What did she just hear?

Oliver said he had found Rosie?

Was she delusional, or Oliver was lying to her?

Luna did not believe that was the truth, for she did not want to experience another disappointment once more. Her body began to shake controllably as she asked, "What did you just say, Oliver?" Oliver understood Luna's feelings right now. His heart was wrung with pain when he saw his mother's expression, but he forced a smile onto his face as he said, "Mom, it's true. When I went to get Anna at Ningcheng City, I bumped into a girl who looked just like you when you're young."

"T... Then?" Luna grabbed Oliver's hand, her heart fluttering like a bird in a cage.

"I did a DNA test with the girl. I've brought the result back for you to see. Here." The moment Oliver took the report out, Luna snatched it away.

She flipped to the last page and looked at the conclusion at the end.

"The results show that there are a lot of similarities between the two DNA sequences. Hence, there is an 80 % chance that both bearers of the DNA sequences are biological siblings."

Luna read the sentence again and again, and tears began to roll down her cheeks.

After a short while, the entire document was wet with her tears.

"Mom..." Oliver had been a tough cookie, but even so, his eyes were turning red around the eyelids right now.

"Where is she, Oliver? Where is Rosie?" Luna grabbed Oliver's hand tightly as she looked at him expectantly.

She had been tormented by her languish after Rosie for 25 years, and now, she finally found her daughter. Luna felt that she was willing to die, as long as she could see her daughter once more. "She is in Ningcheng City with Anna right now," Oliver said, holding back his tears.

"Then what are we still waiting for? Hurry up and bring me there right away," Luna implored as she tried to pull Oliver out.

"Mom, Dad hasn't come back yet. I just called him, and I guess he is on his way back now..."

Before Oliver could finish his sentence, Luna interrupted, "We'll go first. After he comes back, he can come by himself..."

The moment Luna finished talking, they bumped into George Wright who had just rushed back to the house.

"What is this all about, Oliver? Why did you have to ask me to come back in such a hurry?" George asked with a frown.

Before Oliver could say anything, Luna went forward and tugged at her husband's arm. She said, "Let's go first. We'll talk on the plane."

George was startled as well when he saw his wife's eyes glowing with expectation. Ever since Rosie's disappearance, Luna never had such an expression on her face anymore.

What was happening?

It was only after they had gotten onto the plane that

Oliver had the time to tell his father everything. After knowing that Rosie had been found and she was in Ningcheng City, it was only then that George could finally understand Luna's feelings. He was on the edge of his seat as well.

It had been so many years. Even though he rarely showed it, he had never once stopped missing his lost daughter.

"How is Rosie doing? Is she good?"

"Did anybody bully her?"

"Is she married?"

"Did you tell her about us? What's her reaction?"

Luna and George showered Oliver with all sorts of questions, in which Oliver answered them one by one patiently.

After a few minutes, Luna asked again, "How is Rosie doing? Is she good?"

Oliver rubbed his temples helplessly and said, "Mom, this is the tenth time you asked the same question. Rosie is doing very well right now."

"Is that so? This is the tenth time already..." Luna mumbled. She turned her head and looked outside through the window. She could not wait to see her daughter anymore.

She was getting cold feet, and she had never felt so desperate in her life before. She finally could see her daughter once more after 25 years. She wondered

what had her daughter become?

Oliver received the report early in the morning, and it took him only half a day to shuttle between Ningcheng City and Skyking City. By the time he and his parents arrived at Ningcheng City, it was only the evening.

The Shaws had not had their dinner yet. All of them gathered around in the living room. There was a boring soap opera on TV, but none of them were paying attention to it.

Susan was fraught with nervousness right now.

Several hours ago, Anna received a message from Oliver saying that her parents were coming to Ningcheng City by plane now.

Judging from the time, they should have arrived by now.

Suddenly, the phone rang, and Julian picked it up.

"Mr. Shaw, Mr. Wright has returned. He has brought two people with him as well." The call was from the guard.

"Let them in."

After he hung up the call, Julian nodded at Susan.

"Our dad and mom here already? Oh yeah!" Anna sprung up and went to the door to welcome her parents.

Susan had stood up as well, but she looked a little

flustered.

She threw a gaze at Julian and whispered, "Wouldn't it be very awkward later? After all, we haven't seen each other for 25 years. Besides, what should I say when I see them? And..."

Before Susan could finish her words, someone had reached the door.

Susan raised her head up and saw an elegant woman standing at the door. She looked straight at Susan and her eyes were filled with tears.

Truth be told, Anna had shown her the photo of Luna before, but she did not feel anything at that time. It was only at the moment she saw the woman face to face that an indescribable feeling rose from her heart.

Especially when she saw the tears in the woman's eyes, she felt like she wanted to cry as well.

Standing at the door, Luna observed Susan from head to toe. From the first moment she saw her, she felt it in her bones. She did not need any confirmation anymore - she was certain that Susan was her daughter, Rosie.
