Married a Secret Billionaire
Chapter 1575

"W-What do you mean?" Sasha struggled to maintain her composure but avoided making eye contact with Elijah. "Could this card be yours instead of mine?"

"I didn't say that," Elijah replied with a smile. "I just suddenly remembered that my wife also has several similar cards with this aqua-blue color and a laser-etched bamboo pattern on the back. The Pattons are scholars who admire resilient plants like bamboo! By the way, would you like to turn it over and take a look?"

Sasha felt flustered. She clutched the bank card tightly and hurriedly left, avoiding any further conversation with Elijah.

When she found Lina, she began by acknowledging that she had indeed made a promise. She then explained that she hadn't anticipated the cat's-eye stone to be so expensive, stating that she was in a rush when she left home and this card was the only one with money in it.

Finally, she adopted an intimate tone and said, "Lina, we're like sisters. Your daughter is like my own! I won't hesitate to spend whatever it takes for her!"

Lina played along and seized the opportunity to take the bank card from Sasha's fingers. "Really? Thank you so much! When Sephy grows up, she'll consider you her godmother!"

Sasha's face twitched, but she forced a smile.

Lina said with sincerity, "Lenny, I heard you're now managing charity projects for Elijah, and you're doing an excellent job. He has praised your talent more than once."

"Oh, really..." Sasha was afraid of being exposed.

"Yes!" Lina smiled. "So, I'll make sure you're treated fairly in the future!"

Hearing this, Sasha felt a weight lift from her chest. It seemed that the amount she had given earlier wasn't a loss after all. Exchanging it for Lina's promise of fair treatment was quite a deal! "Ms. Thompson!" Elijah's deep voice echoed.

Sasha furrowed her brow and instinctively tried to leave, but Lina held her back.

"Lenny, what are you hiding from? Aren't you close to Elijah?"

"..."

Sasha had no time to hide and came face to face with Elijah.

Elijah's eyes bore into her as if they held hidden knives, as though he wanted to harm her.

Sasha's heart raced once more.

Elijah nodded politely with a smile, presenting a gift to Lina. "This is a red agate I specifically chose for your little princess. It may not be very valuable, but it's a token of my sincere intentions." "Thank you, Mr. Chriss."

"There's one more matter... that I hope you'll allow."

Lina's eyes brightened. "Go ahead."

Elijah smiled. "I hope I can use your venue to announce a family matter."

Lina readily agreed, "We're old friends now. Please, go ahead."

Both of them knew exactly what would happen next. Only Sasha appeared bewildered. By the time she reacted, Elijah had already taken the stage.

"Ladies and gentlemen," Elijah began, holding the microphone with poise. "Today, I'd like to share some joyous news with all of you."

The music abruptly stopped, and all the guests focused their attention on him.

Elijah's voice was low, and his words were clear. "I have recently found my long-lost younger sister, and I'd like to introduce her to all of you today."

As soon as he finished speaking, the doors swung open. The surrounding lights dimmed, leaving a gentle spotlight illuminating the woman slowly approaching. Everyone looked at her with a mixture of surprise and curiosity.

The woman walked gracefully, her aqua-blue evening gown showcasing her excellent figure and highlighting her fair skin and an inherent aloof aura. However, what intrigued everyone even more was the mask covering her face!
