Chapter 450
Although I had thought about it, I still felt uneasy.
Would replaceing her really be the same as I imagined? She might have already started a family, had children, and be living a happy life. My appearance might just be a stone disturbing her stable life.
Moreover, with the silver pendant lost two years ago, replaceing her would be even more difficult than replaceing a needle in a haystack.
Unexpectedly, Yasmin said, "I can help you, whether it's through public searches or private inquiries. It's up to you how you want to proceed."
I was surprised. "Really?"
"Of course." Yasmin nodded, glanced at Christine, who was juicing in the kitchen, with a gentle and. obviously maternal gaze. "If someone had been willing to help Christine in the past, perhaps I could have recognized her sooner." "You and Christine..." I hesitated slightly. "Were you separated before?"
If that were the case...
I had to wonder if Christine's true identity was really Yasmin's daughter. Two years ago, she had deceived the Shaw family. Now, it wasn't out of the question that she was here to deceive Yasmin as well.
Yasmin didn't hide anything from me, her smile fading into a trace of melancholy. "Yes, she was swapped with another baby just days after her birth."
"Who swapped her?"
"We haven't found out yet." Yasmin sighed.
"What about the baby that was swapped to you?" I asked softly.
"It was a stillborn."
I was stunned by her words.
Yasmin spoke with self-reproach, "With everything that was going on at home, I left Jeswood and went to Northland to start a new life. Had I known Christine was swapped, I would never have left Jeswood. I would have insisted on replaceing her." "It's not your fault." I reassured her. "If anyone is to blame, it's the person who swapped the babies."
"Let's not talk about me anymore. At least, Christine and I are reunited."
Yasmin smiled with a sense of relief and said, "Let's focus on your situation. Is your family in Jeswood or Jelaston?"
"In Jeswood." I pursed my lips. "The Shaw family of Jeswood."
Clang-
Yasmin's glass crashed to the floor, shattering into pieces with tea splashing everywhere. She seemed flustered and asked urgently, "The Shaw family? The Shaw family, one of the four major families of

Jeswood?"
"Yes."

"Is your father Ben Shaw?"
"Yes, that's him."
Seeing her so familiar with this, I couldn't help but ask, "Do you... know the Shaw family?"
"No!" she answered decisively, suddenly standing up and crouching down to clean up the mess. However, she seemed to accidentally cut her finger.
I quickly grabbed some tissues to help her press on the wound. "Do you have iodine and band-aids at home?"
"No need." Yasmin suddenly became distant and took a few steps back. "It's getting late. You should go home now. I'll let you know after I try on the dress."
I was a bit confused but understood the need to be considerate. "Alright, I'll leave now."
Just as I was about to go, I turned back and said, "By the way, Ms. Jackson, there's something I think I should let you know."
"What is it?"
I thought about it and said, "Two years ago, Christine..."
"Ms. Wilson!" Christine came over with two glasses of juice. She handed one to me with a smile and said, "Are you going to tell my mom about how we met two years ago?" Then she handed the other glass to Yasmin, saying sweetly, "Mom, for you!"
I smiled. "Yes."
"If my mom is interested, I'll be happy to tell her."
Christine blinked and leaned on Yasmin's shoulder playfully and said, "Ms. Wilson, please don't take away our topic of conversation."
At that point, as an outsider, I couldn't say anything more. Moreover, Yasmin seemed somewhat distant after learning I was from the Shaw family.
