Chapter 308 308: Do you know this lady?

Ella shoved her phone back into her bag after typing something on it and turned over to see the sleeping figure next to her.

Ella regretted dragging Stefan to her hometown, but every time she remembered something essential about her birth, she couldn't stop herself from returning there without Michelle's awareness.

Yes, she lied to her mother about going on a business trip with Stefan since it was the only way she could keep her mother from finding out what she was up to.

The car soon came to a stop, and Stefan awoke with a jerk.

"Are we already there?" he inquired, looking out the window.

"Yes, we are. Now, come on, we need to get in the house before anyone notices us," Ella said, hastily paying the money and walking out.

Ella didn't want to draw anyone's sight, especially their noisy neighbours. So she intended to take a morning flight to their residence and avoid being spotted by anyone.

They quickly opened the gates and strolled inside the property, then entered the house.

"I never imagined myself entering my house like a thief," Ella murmured, setting the bag aside and taking a seat on the couch in the main hall.

Stefan also followed her and joined her on the couch. He looked at the girl, who appeared to have lost her peace ever since she confirmed her father's identity.

He knew it wouldn't be easy, no matter how much he tried to comfort her. If he had been in her place, he would have turned the world upside down to find the guy who gave birth to him. Ella remained calm, though.

"Don't worry, everything will be fine," he reassured, caressing her face.

Ella didn't intend staying around long and wanted to finish her tasks before anyone noticed. So she let go of her tiredness and went to her mother's room.

Ella had stolen the keys to the cupboard where Mischelle kept classified documents. It was a risky maneuver, but she managed to grab them, and now she was looking about the area where she expected to discover what she was looking for.

Stefan peered around the room, inspecting the photographs set up on the walls. They were all Ella's accomplishments.

Mischelle adored her daughter, and the look on her face with each of her Ella's achievements was priceless.

Ella exclaimed, "I found it!" and his gaze shifted from the pictures to the girl who hurried with some papers in her hands and sat down on the bed.

Stefan soon followed her and observed as she opened some medical papers. They were rather old and did not originate in the area where they were currently living. However, it had Michelle's name printed on the patient's name.
