"Your sister also told me your name..."
Hearing this, Eleanor took her eyes off the photo and looked at George.
"Your name is Elena, and your mother gave it to you."
Eleanor cracked a smile at the corner of her mouth.
So, she had a name too - Elena, it’s a pretty name...
She couldn't help but think back to when she was a kid at the orphanage, peeking over the wall and watching other kids being held by their parents.
Her smile gradually faded, tears falling uncontrollably, and the warmth within her heart was replaced by sadness and loneliness.
Seeing her like this, George gently handed her some tissues to wipe away her tears. "Don't cry, it'll hurt your eyes."
Eleanor blinked and gave a small nod, then asked again, "My mother..."
George gazed at her sadly, "I'm sorry, but Emilia said your mom passed away when she was little."
Eleanor kind of expected this outcome.
Otherwise, Emilia wouldn't have to take her abroad on the lam.
Something must have happened to her mother and sister.
She noticed that George hadn't mentioned her father, so she couldn't help but ask, "My father..."
George interrupted her before she finished, "I'm sorry, but that's all I know."
Eleanor didn't push George further, but was even more interested in the information he had.
As an internationally renowned cardiologist, George had been running around for her sister, Emilia - what was the relationship between them?
