Chapter: 927

When Rachel looked at the girl, she immediately recognized her-Riley.

“Grandpa and Grandma are chatting with Uncle, and no one wants play with me." Riley puffed out her rosy cheeks to her mother. Slowly, her smile died down and she looked puzzled as she spotted Rachel out of the corner of her eye.

Clara followed her little girl's eyes and smiled softly.

"Oh! This is your aunt Rachel." Clara gently put her hand gently on Riley's shoulder, encouraging her to be open with Rachel.

Riley tilted her head and observed Rachel attentively.

“Auntie, you are so beautiful."

Everyone liked to be praised, and of course, Rachel was no exception.

A smile naturally made its way to her face. Seeing her smile brought a smile to Clara's face.

This was the first time Rachel was actually smiling genuinely since the birthday party started.

Rachel's earlier smile was faint and somehow not real. It made Clara worry about her emotional problems. Clara didn't know how Rachel had managed in the past four years. As a woman, she knew fully well that it was difficult to live in a land you weren't used to, and having to conceal your identity at that was worse. She felt sorry for

Rachel, especially when she saw how faint her smile was.

Rachel was ridiculous four years ago, but her bright eyes sparkled.

She still had some light in them.

Clara narrowed her eyes at Riley's comment. Rubbing her nose, she said, "I'm so sweet to you, but you're not calling me beautiful."

Riley blinked her eyes rapidly, put her arms around Clara's waist and said in a singsong voice, "Mommy, you are, and will remain the most beautiful woman in my eyes. I'm meeting Aunt Rachel for the first time. I want to leave a good impression on her."

Clara chuckled at the little girl's words.

Rachel raised her eyebrows when she heard what she said.

"Riley, this is not the first time we're meeting."

Riley widened her eyes and looked at Rachel in dismay. Indeed Rachel looked familiar, but she couldn't remember how she knew her.

"I also think you look familiar," she said, then looked up at Clara for help.

Clara touched her head and said, "You do know her, sweetheart. She saved your life. You got lost once when you were a little kid. Aunt

Rachel searched for you everywhere and even almost had a car accident."

These words triggered Riley's memory, and she began to remember.

Four years wasn't a very long time, but it wasn't a short time either. Riley was still very young at the time, and her memories of that period were vague. However, she could remember that she got lost.

She also vaguely remembered Roger crying when she was in his arms.
