Chapter 456
Ian's skepticism threw Makayla into deep thought.
"What kind of proof do you need?" Makayla asked.
To Makayla, the relationship she shared with Elijah required no evidence whatsoever.
Elijah was her brother, and that was that.
Ian challenged, "You say you're Elijah's sister,. Do you have an ID? Can you show it to me?"
Makayla wasn't sure if she had an ID card, but she could ask her brother about it.
"I'll dig up some proof!" She assured Ian.
She trusted Marta's words wholeheartedly. Because Marta had told her that Elijah's mother was also
her mother, and Elijah confirmed it too. She and Elijah shared the same mother, and it was only natural
they were siblings!
"If you can't come up with proof, I won't acknowledge anything." Ian said coldly, walking away with his
plate.
Makayla watched his retreating figure, feeling a mix of anxiety and indignation. If only Elijah were here
now. She could ask him for proof.
Ian returned to Mike's side.
Mike asked, "What did Makayla say to you? Didn't Elijah say he wouldn't come? Makayla's here, so it
looks like Elijah might show up at the wedding today."
Ian frowned, "Nothing really."
Mike noticed Makayla kept glancing their way, and felt a pang of sympathy, "We really shouldn't be so
ruthless to someone who's mentally challenged."
Ian said, "She's not as naive as she used to be."
Mike said, "Yeah, I've never doubted your mother's medical skills."
Ian looked quite proud of his mom.
Mike said, "But your mother seems a bit off lately. You've seen it. She barely eats and she's so thin. If
Elijah wanted to take her away, he wouldn't need to put in any effort. It's one thing she doesn't want to
keep fit, but how can she be so irresponsible to herself?" This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.
Ian said, "We could try snooping around mom's phone. See what she's thinking."
Mike didn’t respond.
Ian asked, "Are you scared?"
Mike said, "Absolutely! She's your mother, not mine. If you mess up, she might just give you a good
tongue-lashing. But if I do, she'll kick me out!"
Ian said, "Oh."
After some inner struggle, Mike suggested, "Ian, we can give it a shot. If your mom finds out, we'll face
the consequences together, deal?"
Ian nodded.
After breakfast, Mike went to the parking lot to fetch a laptop. Ian and Rita waited in the banquet hall.
Seeing Mike leave, Makayla immediately approached their table.
Makayla looked at Ian, puzzled, "Why don't you want Rita to play with me? I'm your aunt."
Ian said, "Proof!" New chаpter avąilable on Drаmanоvels.cом
Makayla's eyes sparkled, "I'll show you the proof."
Ian said, "Even if you show me, I won't acknowledge it! I don't want Elijah to be my dad. I don't
recognize him!"
Ian was speechless. He was suddenly at a loss for words. Makayla's way of thinking was unique, but
he couldn't find anything wrong with it.
