Chapter 466: Chapter 465 Chapter 466: Chapter 465 Helen had barely finished speaking when Kiera furrowed her brows.
She said directly, “I would like to turn our disputes with the Gill family into nothing more than water under the bridge, but do you think that by rely apologizing, the Gill family will let this go?”
She didn’t want to cause trouble for the Olsen family because of her personal issues.
Besides, she wanted to cooperate with the Gill family…
Although Helen’s proposal was a bit extre, if it could nd fences, Kiera was willing to suffer a little humiliation.
After all, finding her mother was also an urgent matter.
Helen imdiately said, “I’ll step in and diate for you, and there definitely won’t be a problem.”
Her words made Kiera slightly startled.
Jas Olsen quickly explained, “Sister, Aunt Helen is related to the Gill family; she is Austin Gill’s aunt…”
Kiera was taken aback.
She had never expected that the Olsen family and Gill family were connected by marriage!
Since that was the case, and everyone was relatives, why should Lady Gill and the rest make such unpleasant trouble?
Helen sighed, “Keera, this matter is actually being taken too far by my sister-in-law. You don’t understand her… she’s very proud! She had a crush on your father for so long, and your father never spared her a glance. She has always held a grudge, especially in front of your father. If it had been any of her brothers, Ellis included, my sister-in-law wouldn’t be so earnestly stubborn about it!”
She looked at Kiera, “So, rather than saying you caused trouble as soon as you entered the family, it’s more accurate to say you were dragged into this by your father! However, now is not the ti to argue about who’s right and who’s wrong. Initially, it wasn’t a big deal. Jackson Gill is always fooling around outside, how could she not know the truth? She just can’t swallow her pride!”
Helen continued, “I’m here today to act as a diator. As the younger one, go and apologize with to my sister-in-law, admit that you were too heavy-handed, and with that, our two families can resolve this crisis, which is beneficial for both sides!”
Seeing Helen speak sincerely, Kiera agreed and promptly stood up, “Okay, Aunt Helen, I’ll listen to you. Let’s go.”
Jas Olsen and Kate Freeman imdiately followed behind her, “Little sister, big senior sister, we’ll accompany you!”
“No need.”
Kiera stopped them, “It’s not good to bring so many people; it looks as though we’re going to provoke them. Just Aunt Helen and I will visit!”
She even stopped Lewis Horton from following and went to the Gill family just with Helen.
The two were not turned away at the door but were ushered by the butler into the reception hall, not the living room.
Helen’s expression stiffened.
She used to co back to her parents’ ho as if it were her own ho. When had they ever been so formal?!
It seed her sister-in-law really was making a fuss!
Helen sighed, then glanced at Kiera before saying, “Don’t worry, don’t be scared. My big sister-in-law seems cold but is warm on the inside. She won’t be harsh on a young girl like you…”
Kiera raised an eyebrow, about to say she wasn’t afraid when Helen added, “Moreover, I’m here today. If the Gill family dares to lay a hand on you, I will definitely stop them!”
Kiera fell silent.
She wanted to say that she needn’t worry; these people were probably no match for her.
But seeing the determined look on Helen’s face, she silently swallowed the words.
Helen had originally gone to find Kiera, asking her to co and apologize. Kiera was sowhat displeased in her heart, but seeing how Helen was protecting her…
She must truly be doing it for the good of both families, right?
At that mont, footsteps sounded from outside the door, followed by Lady Gill entering coldly. Upon seeing Keira Olsen, she snorted and took a seat on the sofa, turning to Helen, “Helen, what brings you here today?”
Unable to contain herself, Helen retorted, “Big sister, this is my ho! Can’t I even return to my own house now?”
Her tone carried a mix of affection and coquettishness.
Lady Gill scoffed, “Your ho? Isn’t your ho with the Olsen family? I thought you’d forgotten your last na!”
Helen sighed and walked straight over to Lady Gill, “Big sister, I brought Keera here today to apologize to you. For many years, our Gill family has had a good relationship with the Olsen family. This ti the incident was indeed because Jackson Gill, that boy, went too far! Keera saw him bullying her good friend and just couldn’t hold back, and might have gone a bit too far with her response… Please don’t be angry!”
Lady Gill scolded, “A bit too far? If that was just a bit, then what would you consider going too far?”
Helen grimaced, “Big sister, don’t take this the wrong way, but Jackson Gill is from the second branch of the family. You know how my second brother is—fickle-minded, and my sister-in-law spoils their child rotten. It’s led to Jackson causing no end of trouble over the years! If he doesn’t behave himself, how can we be blad for Keera defending herself fiercely? Moreover, I’ve heard that when Keera was with the Freeman Sect’s outer gate, Jackson had bullied her for many years! If there’s anyone to be held accountable, the Olsen family has already been lenient in not pursuing this further. How can you instead turn this around on us?”
Lady Gill scoffed again, “The Olsen family this, the Olsen family that. Since you are part of the Olsen family, what are you doing here at our Gill house?”
Now Helen was angry, “My last na is Gill, I can co and go as I please! You favor Jackson and shield him, and I’m not allowed to speak? It was his fault to begin with… Aren’t we Gills supposed to reason as well?”
Helen then turned to Keira, “Besides, I’ve brought the child here, that should be enough, big sister. You can’t refuse to step down when I’ve given you an out! Do you really want to put the Gill family and the Olsen family on the pyre over one Jackson Gill? Do you have any idea what everyone is saying about us now?”
Helen stared at her, “Keera’s father has been cornered by the shareholders at his company, demanding an explanation. I refuse to believe that no one from the Gill side has put pressure on you. Are the two great families heading towards becoming sworn enemies? Big sister, have you made up your mind to make choose between my maiden and marital hos, all for that worthless nephew? Didn’t you also look down on him before? Why be so foolish now!”
Listening to her words, Lady Gill silently sighed, “Do you know what Jackson Gill has done?”
Helen shook her head, “I don’t know.”
Lady Gill then revealed, “He helped us find Barbara’s jade pendant.”
Helen was imdiately taken aback, “What? Barbara? Big sister, you have news of Barbara?”
Barbara was Lady Gill’s daughter.
Lady Gill imdiately nodded, “With such a service that Jackson has done for us, how could I not protect him? If it ans finding Barbara, even if we have to spend every last penny of the Gill family, I am willing!”
Helen found herself at a loss for words.
The Gills were all eager to find Barbara; especially the people from the first branch of the family. So, if Jackson had helped them find such crucial evidence, it was no wonder the big sister was so supportive of him.
Indeed, Jackson had earned a significant rit for the first branch!
Just as she wasn’t sure how to respond, Keira suddenly realized sothing and spoke up, “Lady Gill, the day Jackson helped you find the jade pendant, wasn’t it the sa day as the incident?”
Lady Gill reflexively questioned, “How did you know?”
How did she know?
Of course, it was because on that day, Jackson had stolen Nara Gill’s jade pendant!
Later, she even went to the hospital specifically to ask Jackson to return it to Nara… At that ti, she only glanced at it and hadn’t seen it clearly.
But now…
In a flash, Keira understood sothing!!
