Chapter 1604 Lilin walked up to Sophia with a frown and looked up at her sister, who was much taller. She stretched out her hand and said, "You wanted to give back the painting to me, right? Well, give it." Sophia did not notice anything peculiar with the painting, and she was not prepared to argue with Lilin in front of Adam. After all, she had just promised her father that she would get along well with her sister, so she happily returned the painting to Lilin.

Take better care of the painting | gave you next time!" Bryan's unease improved slightly after he took the painting back. He pouted and said, "Thank you, Aunt Lilin!" Lilin replied, "You're welcome!" She then turned to look at Adam and said," See, Dad? Benjamin is a very sensible, polite little boy. Speople just don't know how to teach their children!" Adam had a slightly contorted expression, while Sophia gritted her teeth after hearing the sarcasm in Lilin's words.
Lilin ignored Sophia and held the boy's hand. "Cwith me. I'll bring you to your father's room!" Bryan nodded and said, "Okay." He left obediently with Lilin, while Sophia was left to deal with Adam's scrutinous gaze.
Once they left the suite, Lilin looked around to make sure Sophia was not following them. She then whispered to ‘Benjamin’, "I know you're not Benjamin.” Bryan's expression froze. He stiffened, and he looked at Lilin with shock and guilt.
His reaction all but confirmed Lilin's guess. "I can see that you hate Sophia as much as | do." Bryan had a very good first impression of Lilin and felt Blshe was not a bad person, so he decided to cclean and nodded earnestly.

Bryan was a little puzzled. "How did you know?" Lilin explained, "When | gave you the painting earlier, you happily toldthat you wanted to give it to your Mommy. | thought you were referring to Sophia, but after | saw how angry you were when she took it from you, | knew right away that Sophia isn't your Mommy." "Aunt Lilin, is it okay for you to keep this a secret even though you're not really my aunt?" Bryan asked.
"Of course | can! My lips are sealed," replied Lilin assuringly. "If | wanted to expose you, | would've already done it in front of everyone back there." Bryan believed her and said, "Thank you!" Lilin then asked, "Could you tellwhy you're here and where did the real Benjamin go?" Bryan scratched his head in frustration and replied, "Well... We got switched up by mistake the other day. I'm pretty sure the real Benjamin is at my house now..." He described the entire situation to Lilin, who found it hard to believe. Two identical children could not possibly have existed in the world. There was more to it than met the eye.
All of a sudden, Lilin had another thought. "Do you have a photo of your mother? | want to see what she looks like." Bryan shook his head and replied, "I don't have one now, but | can assure you that she's very beautiful!"
