If it was Baron Stuart’s stuff, she definitely wouldn’t be able to get close enough to see clearly if the mandarin duck stone had the character ‘mandarin’ on it, but she could investigate and look into Emily Walker’s background.
With that thought, hope flickered in Angela Reid’s heart once more.
Two days later, without Baxter Walker’s knowledge, Angela Reid found the Avie Hotel and learned about Elia Parker.
That morning, Angela arrived at Avie Hotel, and her extravagant and noble attire instantly caught Elia Parker’s eye.
She had no idea why such a rich madam would visit her small restaurant.
Shouldn’t wealthy ladies like them go to Five Star Restaurants to eat?
“Madam, what would you like to eat?” Elia Parker was quite good at doing business. As soon as she saw Angela’s glamorous appearance, she knew she must be rich, and she could speak eloquently and smoothly!
Angela glanced at Elia and then looked her up and down before hesitating to ask, “Are you… Mrs. Carter?”
Elia stammered, her smile faltering for a moment, and then looked at the wealthy madam in front of her.
The tone of her voice was clearly not here to eat but to find her, and she could tell that Angela’s family background was far better than her own— why would such a wealthy lady look for her for no reason?
“Who are you?” Elia asked.
“I’m Angela Reid, and I want to ask you something,” Angela replied gently.
Upon hearing that she wanted to inquire about someone, Elia’s face turned unwelcoming.
So she wasn’t here to eat after all, just to waste her time!
Elia’s face immediately darkened, “I’m sorry, but I’m very busy. If you’re not here to eat, then I won’t bother with you.”
After saying this, Elia turned and left in displeasure.
“What if I eat here and ask you something in passing?” Angela asked, somewhat dissatisfied with Elia’s snobbishness.
However, since she wanted to inquire about something, she had to choose to ignore it.
Upon hearing this, Elia immediately turned back around with a smile, “Of course! What would you like to eat!?”
She walked over attentively, looking at Angela with a smile.
Angela wasn’t fond of her sudden change of attitude, so she took her wallet out of her bag, counted ten USD bills, and said coldly, “You don’t need to serve any food, I just need to ask you something, is this enough money?”
She handed the brand-new red USD bills to Elia with a cold tone.
“It’s more than enough, absolutely more than enough!” Elia grinned, taking the one thousand USD, “What would you like to know?”
She put away the money and looked at Angela with an eager expression.
Angela looked around the Grand Hall of the restaurant, “Let’s find somewhere to sit down.”
The one thousand USD was more than enough to pay for a little bit of her time and a location.
“Alright, let’s sit over there!” Elia led the way to a dining table by the window.
After they sat down, Angela looked left and right, wondering how such a woman could have raised a girl like Emily Walker.
After calming down for a little while, Angela slowly began, “Do you have a daughter?”
Elia paused, but since the other person had paid, she had no reason not to answer, “Yes, how did you know?”
Ignoring her question, Angela continued, “Is she your biological daughter?”
