Chapter 244: Chapter 244: Could Elara Don Be My Daughter

The study room.

"Benjamin, don’t mind the opinions of others. You know, I’ve always treated you like my own son."

Hunter Miles patted Benjamin Harper’s shoulder with a kindly expression.

"Uncle Miles, I understand." Benjamin smiled faintly.

Hunter nodded, signaling him to sit down before continuing.

"Benjamin, tell me what you know. I understand that if it weren’t something significant, you usually wouldn’t bother with it."

He understood himself well.

You only truly understand someone if you truly care about them.

Soft-hearted, Benjamin took out his phone and found a picture of Elara Don.

"Uncle Miles, this is Elara Don. She’s very beautiful and kind, but somehow, she suddenly got caught up in a case."

Letting Hunter see Elara’s face first, maybe he would notice something!

Hunter glanced at the phone, and his pupils suddenly shrank when he saw the photo!

"Benjamin, she’s, she’s called Elara Don? Do you know who her parents are?"

Why does she look so much like Lina Quinn?

What is her relationship with Lina Quinn?

"From what I’ve heard, her mother’s name was Lina Quinn, and her biological father is unknown. Her mother died in a car accident when she was young, and afterward, she’s been living with her adoptive father, Troy Don..."

Benjamin gave a brief overview of Elara’s life.

Hunter gripped the phone tightly, a flicker of excitement in his eyes.

This child is indeed Lina Quinn’s daughter!

Back then, Lina suddenly resigned and broke off contact. Turns out she got married?

But why is Elara Don’s biological father unknown?

Hunter scrutinized Elara’s face carefully, the more he looked, the more he felt she resembled him.

Could Elara Don be his daughter?

But he never made a move on her, right?

"Uncle Miles, what’s wrong with you? Do you know Elara Don?"

Benjamin deliberately asked, seeing Hunter’s agitated state.

"I don’t know this child, but I knew her mother."

Hunter put down the phone, stood up, and walked to the bookshelf, pulling out an album and flipping to a certain page.

"This is Lina Quinn. She was a clerk at the Miles Corporation years ago, and we dated for a while. But then..."

Looking at the woman in the photo, Hunter’s eyes dimmed with sadness.

The Miles family was wealthy, and he was handsome and charismatic, admired by all as a revered figure.

Someone like him, of course, his parents wouldn’t consent to him marrying an unknown nobody.

So his relationship with Lina Quinn was always kept under wraps.

He had planned to take things slowly, waiting for the right moment to confront his parents.

Unexpectedly, after a banquet, he drank too much and somehow ended up with Eleanor Shaw.

Eleanor’s family was of a similar standing, and both families were eager to join forces.

Thus, disregarding his wishes, they directly announced their engagement.

He resisted, but never thought that while he was fighting with his family, Lina Quinn would leave a letter and disappear.

At that time, he was furious, thinking she never really loved him.

Why, when he was fighting for their future, could she just walk away?

So, out of spite, he submitted to his family’s arrangement, married Eleanor Shaw, and she became Mrs. Grant.

"Uncle Miles?"

Benjamin cautiously called out when Hunter only spoke halfway.

Hunter returned to his senses, sighed, "I guess Lina and I were just not meant to be. Tell me about Elara Don, how did she end up getting arrested?"

Elara Don is Lina Quinn’s daughter, no matter what, he couldn’t stand by and do nothing.

"I’ve heard, the situation is quite strange..."

Benjamin recounted the events of Elara Don’s arrest.

Hunter was a bit shocked, "Are you saying, Elara Don is investigating her mother’s death? And someone doesn’t want her to continue, so she got arrested?"

"Yes. This matter is quite serious. Currently, she’s not able to be bailed out."

Benjamin’s face was solemn.

Hunter pondered, "I’ll call Luke. He has extensive connections. See if he can figure out a way to get Elara Don bailed out first."

He decided to seek Gabriel Miles’ help.

Benjamin opened his mouth but ultimately said nothing.

The Miles brothers ran a business and were involved in politics, their interests intertwined.

Their relationship was quite good.

If he were to say anything now, he doubted Hunter would believe him.

The reason he showed Elara’s photo to Hunter was to confirm something.

He thought Elara Don might be Hunter’s daughter!

But judging by Hunter’s reaction, it was clear he was mistaken.

"Luke, I need you to help me with something..."

Hunter was on the phone with Gabriel Miles.

Benjamin lowered his gaze, concealing the darkness in his eyes.

Evelyn Miles wanted to marry Damon Hawke, Gabriel Miles was more than willing for Elara Don to get into trouble, how could he sincerely help?

Even if he did help, it would likely be using Elara Don’s safety to coerce Damon Hawke into submission!

What should he do?

Could he just sit back and watch Damon marry Evelyn Miles?

"Alright, Luke has agreed to help."

Hunter finished his call with Gabriel and looked to Benjamin.

Benjamin regained his composure and smiled without speaking.

"Benjamin, do you like Elara Don?"

Hunter suddenly asked.

Benjamin was taken aback, a hint of discomfort passing over his face.

"Uncle Miles, I do have some fondness for her, but I know the person she likes isn’t me."

Meeting the right person at the wrong time, the result is inevitably unresolved.

"No worries, you’re a great man, and will surely find a good girl who is a perfect match for you."

Hunter patted Benjamin’s shoulder, offering comfort.

"Uncle Miles, shall we head out?"

Benjamin stood up, not continuing the topic.

Downstairs, Mrs. Grant received a message from Gabriel Miles.

"Hunter wants me to help with Elara Don, how did he find out about this?"

How did he find out?

It was definitely Benjamin who blabbed!

The chill in Mrs. Grant’s eyes, "It doesn’t matter if he knows, just give a perfunctory response. Anyway, after two days, once Damon agrees to your conditions, Elara Don can be released."

In the end, the credit will go to Gabriel Miles.

And their goal will also be achieved.

A win-win situation.

Mrs. Grant put away her phone, observing Benjamin support Hunter down the stairs, a cold light in her eyes.

This Benjamin really thinks highly of himself.

Who knows what he’s told Hunter!

When she’s done with this, she’ll deal with him!

"Dad, why can’t you say anything to me and Mom face-to-face, and have to tell it to an outsider like him?"

Evelyn Miles pouted, looking at Hunter with dissatisfaction.

Hunter glanced at her, "Claire, from now on, don’t be rude to Benjamin. He’s not my biological son, but is more like one. Be more respectful to him."

Asking her to respect the son of a servant?

What a ridiculous joke.

Evelyn Miles gave a cold snort, but seeing Hunter’s rare stern expression, she wisely kept quiet.

"Hurry and eat, the food’s getting cold."

Mrs. Grant gave Hunter a look and said.

Hunter responded, seemingly absent-minded.

If Lina Quinn’s death wasn’t an accident, who wanted her dead?

She was just an ordinary woman, who could she possibly have offended?

...

It was late at night.

Benjamin couldn’t sleep, tossing and turning over Elara Don’s matter.

He sat up in bed, drew the curtains, and gazed at the night outside, his brow furrowed.

Trapping Elara Don was a formidable feat, how could he possibly help her?

Frustrated and restless, Benjamin opened his door, intending to get some water.

As he passed the study, vague voices of a woman sounded from inside.

"Luke, I’m still not reassured. That person should be well hidden, right?"

This was Mrs. Grant, Eleanor Shaw’s voice!

She was on the phone with Gabriel Miles!
