Ice-Cold Ceo, Crazy Love

Chapter 242

Eason let out a sigh, “I used to have a sister. But there was an accident during my mother’s labor, and my sister went missing. She’s never been found.”

Ben squinted slightly. “So, you think Susan is your sister?”

Eason was torn. “I don’t know. The world is full of lookalikes. I’ve tapped into all my connections to find my sister and have found quite a few girls who bear some resemblance to my mother. Some even look more like her than Susan does. Each time, I went for the tests full of hope, but the results always ended in utter disappointment.”

Ben seemed to understand.

He arched an eyebrow. “Have you ever mentioned this to Susan?”

Eason shook his head. “No, I haven’t dared to.”

“Why not?” Ben frowned.

Eason hesitated before speaking, “The moment I first saw Susan, I felt something strange. Even without any tests, I instinctively felt she was my sister. But her family background is crystal clear, with parents and a younger sister. Her family tree doesn’t leave room for doubt. If she were my sister, how could she suddenly become the daughter of the Miller family?”

“And then?” Ben asked, more pragmatically.

Ben thought Eason didn’t grasp the significance of his turmoil. Wrestling with the idea back and forth was pointless. Why not just tell Susan the truth and have everything out in the open?

Eason glanced at Ben. “You don’t understand. I’ve been let down so many times, and now, finally, there’s a girl who is the spitting image of the sister in my heart. Even if it’s just my imagination, I don’t want to shatter this illusion so

easily.”

Despite telling himself to get a sample of Susan’s blood for testing as soon as possible.

However, Eason never took any real action.

Because he was scared.

Scared that the result would be another disappointment.

He had borne so many disappointments before.

But this time, it was different.

Susan was the exact embodiment of the sister he had imagined.

Unwittingly, he had infused her with so many of his emotions.

If this time it turned out not to be true.

Eason wasn’t sure if he had the courage to continue the search.

“You’re just fooling yourself.” Ben pointed out sharply.

Eason gave a wry smile. “Perhaps.”

Ben handed the photo back to Eason and said coolly, “I can understand your actions. But that doesn’t mean I can accept them. Mr. Nicholas, you now have two options. Either you tell Susan the truth yourself, or I will. Of course, whether or not to take the test should be up to Susan to decide.”
