One Night Surprise

Chapter 348 Later On, I Got Pregnant

As night fell, only a small lamp on the desk was turned on in the room. The light was very dim, as if it was in response to the atmosphere of this meeting, fading in and out of the distant past.

Fiona put the photo album on the coffee table and pointed to Courtney a black-and-white photo on the first page.

In the photo, a young man and woman were standing side by side. In front of the man was a child that was not even as tall as his knees, and the woman was holding a baby girl in her arms. The baby girl looked as if she had just turned a-month old—she looked almost newly born.

“I was abandoned by my parents as soon as I was born. At that time, Alexander’s grandfather and grandmother coincidentally went up the mountain to pray and ended up rescuing me at the entrance of the mountain. After that day, I became the Second Young Lady of the Duncan family and Jeffrey’s younger sister. That year, Jeffrey had just turned one year old, which means he was one year older than me.”

Scott looked dashing back then—he was also very compatible with his wife. The only regret was that the two never had children, especially since his wife was older than him. Eventually, they finally got a son. The couple was so happy that they went to the mountain to offer a prayer to thank the heavens, but little did they know that they would end up saving a baby on the way there.

They were both precious to the couple; they named them Jeffrey and Fiona Duncan respectively.

“I didn’t know I wasn’t a child of the Duncan family until I was 17, and no one in the family ever told me.”

Looking at the photos of the two growing up page-by-page, Courtney was surprised.

“I’m sure it’s only because they couldn’t tell, Fiona. You and Mr. Duncan looked so much alike.”

When she saw the photo, Fiona’s cold face looked like it had regained some life, and her pale fingertips gently rubbed against the corner of the photo, as if she were trying to touch the past.

No one really knew if it was because they grew up together and were raised in the same family, but though they weren’t brother and sister, Fiona and Jeffrey looked very much alike—so much so that after they had turned five, people would often ask if they were twins since they looked so alike.
