Even though he never took a DNA paternity test to prove that Ian was his son, the remarkable similarities between Ian's appearance and character to his own made him firmly believe that Ian was his biological son.
Meanwhile, Violette had confessed before that Rita was her biological daughter. How could one woman possibly give birth to two children who have grown so big in just four years at the same time? The only possibility was that the two kids were twins.
He was so excited about this possibility last night that he couldn't sleep. Because... he really liked Rita.
From the moment he saw Violette's two kids, he was particularly fond of Rita. No matter who Rita's father was, he never felt any aversion to her, probably because Rita looked a lot like Violette.
And Rita had a very interesting personality. Although she seemed obedient, she was far from being a 'goody two-shoes.' She was lively and a bit mischievous.
He admired this kind of character, so he had a soft spot for her.
"What are twins?" Rita asked him with innocent and curious eyes, her eyelashes fluttering. "My mom never told me about this. What does it mean?"
Elijah's hopes, which had been growing in his heart, were gradually dashed. Could it be that things weren't as he imagined? But what was the deal with these two kids?
He wanted to take them to get a DNA test, but without the consent of Violette and the two kids, he didn't dare to act rashly. Otherwise, he might lose their trust.
"If you won't tell me, I'll ask my mom."Rita pouted and wanted to go find Violette.
