Daddy, You Got The Wrong Mommy-Chapter 247: Trusting Him for Now

A few people joked for a while, then Leia Quinn raised her glass and looked at Elara Don.

"Anyway, today we should celebrate a bit. Elly is blessed and protected by heaven. Let’s toast!"

"Right, Cindy is right, let’s go." Craig Landers echoed.

"Mommy, cheers." The two little ones also picked up their milk glasses and spoke in unison.

Elara Don and Damon Hawke exchanged a glance and both raised their glasses.

With a ’ding’, everyone’s glasses clinked together.

A crisp sound was heard.

Elara Don felt warm inside.

This time, she managed to avert danger.

But the hidden adversary hadn’t been found, and she still didn’t know who was behind her mother’s death.

Things were not over, and she felt uneasy.

Her hand felt warm as Damon Hawke held it.

Elara Don looked at him and met his deep, dark eyes.

"Eat, don’t think too much. Don’t worry, I’ve got it covered."

Damon Hawke seemed to understand her thoughts and spoke softly.

Elara Don’s lips curved slightly, and she replied with a hum, placing a piece of food onto his plate.

She should trust him.

With him here, they would surely uncover the truth!

The meal was enjoyed in harmony.

The brothers had eaten enough and saw that the four adults were still drinking, so they went back to their room first.

Dominic Hawke received a message on his phone, his brow furrowed slightly, so he went to open the computer.

"Brother, what are you doing?"

Bea played with a little bug, curiously watching Dominic Hawke open the computer, his fingers skillfully dancing across the keyboard.

"Someone invited me to join a hacking organization. I’ve thought it through; I need to become stronger to protect Mommy properly."

Dominic Hawke had a serious expression.

Bea blinked, admiring yet sighing.

"Brother, you’re amazing! I need to work harder too."

His brother’s computer skills were so strong, but what about him?

What could he do?

It seemed he only knew how to play with bugs!

In the villa, Cole Hawke stood with a wine glass by the window in the study, looking out at the night view.

Elara Don had been acquitted, and he felt relieved.

However, this meant that Elara Don and Damon Hawke’s relationship might deepen.

Cole Hawke took a big sip of wine, his eyes flashing with complexity.

This wasn’t the outcome he wanted.

The phone rang, and Cole Hawke glanced at it, his dark eyes narrowing.

It was a call from Evelyn Miles.

As he answered, he greeted, "Samantha."

"Arthur, Elara Don came out safely. It was Damon Hawke who got her out. With things like this, the two of them will probably get married soon. Are you just going to watch?"

Evelyn Miles’s voice came through the phone, carrying a hint of provocation.

Cole Hawke fiddled with the wine glass, the corner of his mouth curling in mockery.

"Samantha, although I once said our goals were aligned, this incident made me very unhappy. There’s no need to call me again in the future. Of course, I won’t just sit by and watch them get married, but I’m not your ally either."

He almost let Elara Don get hurt; he couldn’t stand by doing nothing.

Although he didn’t want Elara Don to marry Damon Hawke, he didn’t want to see her being smeared as a criminal either.

Cole Hawke hung up the phone directly.

He walked to the cabinet and took out a document.

It was the genetic comparison report of Vinny Hawke and Damon Hawke.

Confirming they were mother and son.

Cole Hawke’s fingers gripped the document, a glint flashed in his eyes.

He wouldn’t expose this document, but he would use it to his advantage!

Blue Sky Apartments.

Leia Quinn and Craig Landers returned to their little home.

The brothers also went to sleep.

In the bedroom, Damon Hawke lay on the bed, holding Elara Don who was lying in his arms, his long fingers gently stroking her black hair.

In the warm yellow light, everything was so peaceful.

Elara Don’s lips curved as she closed her eyes, enjoying the peace of the moment.

Above her, a deep, magnetic voice spoke.

"Elly, marry me."

He wanted her to marry him!

Elara Don opened her eyes, her body moved slightly as she sat up.

After going through a trial, she had come to understand.

She liked him, and he didn’t seem indifferent to her either.

If he wanted her to marry him, she was willing to give them a chance to build a nest of love together, to provide a warm home for the children.

But...

"Tom, I haven’t found out the cause of my mom’s death yet, I don’t want to get married right now."

As long as the hidden adversary was not found, her heart would never be at rest.

She wasn’t in the mood to discuss her own affairs right now. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

"Elly, getting married doesn’t conflict with investigating your mom’s death."

Damon Hawke took hold of Elara Don’s shoulders, "I believe that your mom’s spirit in heaven would definitely wish for you to find happiness."

The man’s gaze was deep, carrying a hint of seriousness and determination.

Elara Don pouted, "As if marrying you would guarantee me happiness, am I the person you love the most? I don’t think so, right?"

The person he loved most in his heart was probably Evelyn Miles!

"How is it not? Elly, heaven and earth can testify, the person I love most in my heart is of course you."

Damon Hawke immediately declared loyalty.

"Ha, don’t lie to me. I heard your conversation with your mentor. The person you love most is Evelyn Miles, you’re just treating me as her substitute."

Elara Don had always been concerned about this, and she took the opportunity to speak up.

Damon Hawke frowned, "When did I say that? Elly, you’ve wronged me."

He couldn’t remember saying such a thing.

"Don’t deny it; your sister played the recording for me. I should have saved it to confront you in person."

Elara Don discontentedly pulled away from his hand and got out of bed to head to the bathroom.

Damon Hawke frowned even tighter, he really couldn’t recall ever saying such things to Andrew King.

But one thing was certain, that supposed recording was definitely Vinny’s trick to sow discord between him and Elara Don.

Damon Hawke got out of bed and pulled Elara Don into his arms.

"Elly, I swear I’ve never treated you as a substitute for Evelyn Miles. That so-called recording was probably a fabricated audio made by my sister to intentionally come between you and me. Elly, after all this time, can’t you really feel my sincere feelings for you?"

These words made Elara Don press her lips together in silence.

She wasn’t a log of wood; of course, she could feel Damon’s feelings for her.

But he had tricked her with a false identity before, which made her think he was habitually deceitful.

How could she easily trust him?

However, that was then, and this is now.

Since he denied it, the thorn in her heart was also removed.

She might as well believe him.

"Men’s words are as believable as pigs can climb trees. Okay, let me go, I need to go to the bathroom."

Though she believed him in her heart, she still wanted to act a little proudly.

"Elly, nine out of ten men’s words are untrustworthy, but I’m that one exception."

Damon Hawke lifted her horizontally and, laughing, carried her to the bathroom.

Elara Don let out a startled shout, wrapping her arms around his neck.

"Damon Hawke, what are you doing? Put me down."

"Wife, my queen, let me serve you from now on until you see my sincere heart."

"Ah, Damon Hawke, don’t touch me, get out!"

"My queen, let me help you with your garments."
