Chapter 342 The Lost Daughter

Anaya and Jaylon were not familiar with each other. Just as Anaya was hesitating to say hello, Jaylon noticed her.

Jaylon put out his cigarette and walked toward Anaya.

Jaylon was bigger than the average man. He had a wide shoulder. There was a faint scar near his eyebrow, and it

added toughness to his masculinity.

The first thing the passers-by noticed during the day was his outstanding appearance. But they ignored the hostility

in Jaylon. By night, the wildness inside him could no longer be hidden.

His vibe, along with the empty street, somehow gave away a scary feeling.

If it were some other girls standing in the middle of the street, they would probably tremble from fright.

But Anaya stopped and silently watched Jaylon walk toward her.

When there were only steps between the two of them, Anaya asked, "Mr. Malpas, are you looking for me?"

"Yes." Jaylon stopped in front of Anaya. His sharp gaze softened a little. "Are you free? Let's have a chat in the

opposite coffee shop. Around ten minutes."

Anaya hesitated for a few seconds and nodded.

In the exquisitely decorated and elegant coffee shop, few people were sitting around.

Anaya picked a seat by the window and sat down. After ordering, she gazed at Jaylon.

From the moment they met, Jaylon had been staring at her.

It didn't seem like he had bad intentions, but Jaylon was making Anaya feel uncomfortable.

After all, no girl would like to be stared at by a man for a long while.

Regardless of whether he was plotting something or not, it was just weird.

"Mr. Malpas, what do you want to say to me since you have waited for me so long?"

Jaylon was silent for a while. He did not answer. Instead, he opened his briefcase, took out a document from it,

and handed it to Anaya.

"I came here to give this to you."

"What is this?"

As she asked, Anaya took the document.

Flipping to the first page, she saw the birth record of a little girl, as well as the information about the little girl getting

lost when she was two years old.

The girl looked exactly the same as Anaya when she was a child.

When she saw clearly what was written on it, Anaya's hand trembled as she was holding the document.

She continued to go through everything. The other papers were all the clues that the Malpas family had gathered

over the years.

All the evidence was related to Anaya.

She was the lost daughter of the Malpas family.

On the last page, there was a family photo.

In the photo, a middle-aged woman who resembled Anaya a lot looked rather sad.

The woman looked at the camera. Her beautiful face was filled with a faint melancholy as if she hadsomething on her mind.

Seeing the woman's photo, Anaya felt heartache.

Anaya didn't know if it was because she shared some likeness with this woman or because this womanmight be Anaya's birth mother.

After Anaya looked at the document, she couldn't come back to her senses for a long time.

After knowing that she was not Adams' biological granddaughter,

Anaya knew that she might replace her real family one day.

She just did not expect everything to happen so suddenly.

It was so fast that Anaya did not know how to react.

Jaylon quietly waited for her to finish reading the documents. Seeing that she had not spoken, Jaylonsaid, "Do you have anything

to ask me?"

Anaya put down the documents. "Are these all true?"

"If you don't believe me, I can ask Dad to come and do a paternity

test with you."

Jaylon could also do a test with Anaya, but the paternity test

between siblings was not that effective compared with the test

between father and daughter.

Jaylon's certainty reassured Anaya and made her start to believe.

"If it's convenient, please ask him to come."

But just in case, Anaya still needed confirmation.

Jaylon nodded. Anaya continued, "Why did you abandon me back

then?"

Previously, Adams had told Anaya that she had been placed at the entrance of the Dutt's house yearsago.

Jaylon stated calmly, "We did not abandon you. The Malpas family starts by doing a smugglingbusiness. We have made countless enemies. Back then, when Mom and Dad brought you to America,they did not expect America to be hell for them. One of our enemies has its headquarters in America.

"Mom and Dad planned to bring you back to Canada, but they were intercepted on the way back. Theyescaped by luck, but you were detained by the enemy.

"Later, when Dad brought back support, the group of the enemy was killed by another gang, and youwere nowhere to be found.

"For so many years, we have been looking for you."

Anaya listened to Jaylon as he talked about what happened in the past, and her mood was a littlecomplicated.

It was like listening to another person's story, and she felt unreal.

In addition, Jaylon had no expression when telling the story. Anaya felt that all of this was make-up.

After Jaylon finished speaking and got no response from Anaya, he

continued, "It must be too much for you at the moment. Let's call it

a day for now.

"Father has something to do. I will let him come to see you after the new year."

Anaya nodded in response. The two chatted for a while and then

came out of the coffee shop.

It was sunny in Boston a few days ago, and yet it was snowing that

night.

There was light snow, but the wind was strong.

Even though the wind was so strong, Anaya did not feel cold at all.

After Anaya and Jaylon parted, she quickly returned to her car.

Along the way, she kept her hand in her pockets and walked to the car before taking out the key.Suddenly, she heard the sound of something falling to the ground.

She looked down and saw a warmer pad lying quietly on the snow.

No wonder Anaya felt warmth coming from her pocket just now.

She was sure that she did not bring any warmer pads out today. After thinking about it, it should comefrom Jaylon. Jaylon looked cold and unapproachable, but he was so considerate

to Anaya.

After realizing that she was Jaylon's sister, Anaya was silent for a while and then suddenly laughed.

She actually found her family.

...

When Anaya returned home, she immediately told Hearst about

that matter.

Hearst heard the news but was not surprised.

The last time Jaylon came to visit Hearst regarding Roland's

matter, Hearst had someone investigate the relationship between

Jaylon and Anaya.

Then Hearst found out that one of Jaylon's main purposes for

coming to America was to replace his missing sister. And Hearst had a

bold guess in his heart at that moment.

However, because there was no concrete evidence, he never told

Anaya. Hearst helped Anaya dry her hair and waited for her to finish before asking, "When do you plan to tell Mr.

Dutt about this?"

When Adams was mentioned, Anaya was in a dilemma.

Adams had always treated Anaya as his birth granddaughter. Now

that she had found her family, Adams might be sad and unable to accept the truth.

"Not until Jaylon's father and I have a paternity test."

After all, Anaya would have to take some time to process the information.

After drying her hair, the two of them lay on the bed and prepared

to sleep.

Hearst suddenly remembered something. "Do you and Aracely have a dinner party the night before New Year's

Eve?" "Yes, Aracely is preparing to tell her father and her mother everything between her and Winston. She will

also call a group of

friends that day to be her backup, hoping that her parents will not

blame or even beat her."

Anaya couldn't help but laugh when she mentioned that.

Aracely usually looked fearless and heartless, but she was most terrified of her parents.

"Do you want to invite Jaylon along?"

Anaya was silent for a moment and said, "I think so."

It would be a good chance for Anaya to get familiar with her

brother.
