Chapter 445 Missing Someone
Afterward, Cordelia arranged a task for Elijah, asking him to discreetly interact with Ben's alternate
personality and ensure he wouldn't do anything out of line. Otherwise, Ben's primary personality would
take the blame.
Elijah chuckled bitterly, "Having such a troublesome friend is truly my misfortune."
Cordelia faintly smiled and said, "You're quite a good buddy!"
After taking care of things in Beilve City, Cordelia took the flight to Verdania to pick up Amy.
Previously, she had already arranged a perfect background story for Amy, so all she needed to do was
go through an adoption process, and Amy would officially become her daughter!
For the sake of authenticity, this process had to be followed. Cordelia didn't dare underestimate the
intelligence of Ben and Elijah.
After that, Cordelia brought Amy back and immediately took her to meet Milo.
Amy had big eyes and long and thick eyelashes. She had fluffy and lightly curly hair, which was styled
into two small buns by Cordelia, looking adorable.
Seeing that Cordelia had adopted such a beautiful little girl, Milo smiled with narrowed eyes.
He said, "Oh, she looks so cute." Exclusive © material by Nô(/v)elDrama.Org.
After Amy got tired from playing and fell asleep, Cordelia settled her in a room and then informed Milo
about Amy's background.
"Mr. Carter, I'm sorry for keeping this from you. I had no chance to tell you the truth before." Cordelia
spoke with a face full of shame. After all, Milo was the elder who loved her the most.
Milo laughed heartily, stroking his beard. "Cordelia, you have such a kind heart. It's never too late to
say it. I understand the hardships of you, young people. How could I blame you? Life itself is a journey,
and every one of us is on our own path."
Cordelia looked gratefully at Milo and said, "Mr. Carter, I'm truly grateful for your indulgence over these
past two years."
"Cordelia, your deep affection and loyalty are rare noble qualities. I hope both you and your friend will
have smooth journeys in life." Milo smiled with kindness.
Cordelia was well aware that she could never repay Milo's kindness in her entire lifetime.
That night, Cordelia stayed at Milo's place.
The next morning, Cordelia had breakfast with Milo and Amy.
Looking at Amy, whose eyes were pure, Milo asked, "Cordelia, have you thought of an official name for
Amy?"
After thinking for a moment, Cordelia said, "Could you please give Amy an official name?"
She had already discussed with Imogen beforehand that Amy would have the surname of Carter, and
Imogen readily agreed and fully supported it.
After all, her daughter would be able to grow up under the guidance of a renowned doctor, which was
an honor for Imogen.
Milo thought about it for a while. "Let's call her Aimee Carter!"
The word Aimee had a similar pronunciation as her nickname, Amy. Cordelia was satisfied with this
name and immediately informed Imogen of the good news.
Later, Cordelia left Amy with Milo and went out alone to handle some matters.
During lunchtime, Elijah returned to Beilve City, came to pick her up at Undernet, and took her out for
lunch.
Today, Cordelia was very quiet, as if she was worried about something.
While elegantly dining, Elijah discreetly observed Cordelia and occasionally asked her some irrelevant
questions, finding she was absent-minded.
"Cordelia, are you worried?"
Cordelia twitched the corners of her lips and replied, "Is it that obvious? I'm missing someone."
Elijah's heart tightened.
In his mind, numerous speculations instantly surged. After all, Cordelia had just returned to the country,
yet she was missing someone else. It made him extremely nervous!
Could it be her ex-boyfriend or someone who pursued her?
