Chapter 97: Chapter 97
Kiera Olsen was slightly taken aback when she heard that.
Then, she bowed her head, “Actually, many people have said that.”
Lewis Horton did not speak, just quietly listened to her explanation.
Kiera Olsen smiled, “When I was young, Isla really hated because when I stood with Mrs. Olsen, others always mistook for Mrs. Olsen’s daughter.”
Little kids don’t know how to hide their feelings.
Back then, Isla clearly targeted her, pushing her, hitting her, calling a bunch of friends to scold her… And at that ti, she was seriously brainwashed by Poppy Hill, thinking she owed Isla, always bowing her head in front of her, never knowing how to fight back.
Kiera Olsen’s eyes gradually deepened, “You know? I actually thought at the ti, maybe Poppy Hill treated so badly because I was not her child? Unfortunately, we had a DNA test, and I am indeed her daughter.”
Years ago, when she was abducted for several months and then returned, the police departnt had them undergo a DNA test to confirm the child’s belonging. At that ti, she thought how wonderful it would be if she were not Poppy Hill’s daughter?
Unfortunately, that was not the case.
“That is indeed quite unfortunate,” Lewis Horton said in a low, gentle voice, “However, I’ve thought about it carefully; you and Mrs. Olsen don’t actually look alike, just have similar auras.”
People who live together, over ti, tend to develop similar habits.
When Kiera Olsen was young, her favorite thing to do was to observe Mrs. Olsen, to learn how she interacted with people; later, she could awaken and was no longer manipulated by Poppy Hill, thanks to Mrs. Olsen’s guidance.
She laughed, “It’s just that we look different. If there was any part of my facial features that resembled Mrs. Olsen’s, I would definitely consider Mrs. Olsen my mother.”
This self-deprecating comnt made Lewis Horton smile slightly.
He looked down, saying lightly, “Perhaps it’s a matter of skipping generations?”
Kiera Olsen imdiately looked at him, “What did you say, Mr. Horton?”
“…Nothing.”
Lewis Horton felt that uncertain things should not be said, to prevent her from being disappointed again.
…
Mrs. Olsen and Taylor Olsen chased after Isla out of the house.
Seeing Isla enter the parking lot, both knew she wouldn’t run off and breathed a sigh of relief.
Mrs. Olsen appeared sowhat hesitant, “Taylor, am I really biased toward Kiera? Am I not paying enough attention to Isla? Is my favoritism too excessive?”
“It’s not too excessive.” Taylor Olsen always prioritized her and comnted very objectively, “You indeed like Kiera very much, but it’s still within limits. Isla has a strong sense of jealousy.”
Mrs. Olsen sighed, “Then how did Isla turn out the way she is today? You and I are not the petty kind.”
Taylor Olsen then supported her arm, “It’s all my fault. Other families don’t have illegitimate daughters, their children are raised sunny and cheerful; our family is different. Moreover, now that Kiera is what, Dr. South, better than Isla, her jealousy is understandable.”
Mrs. Olsen fell silent. “One’s excellence can’t be defined solely by capacity, moreover, whatever is at ho, we give to Isla first, then to Kiera. From childhood to adulthood, whatever Isla had, Kiera might not necessarily have, but what Kiera had, Isla certainly did. So what right does she have to bla Kiera? You were also wrong just now, pushing Kiera to confess, it was not right.”
Taylor Olsen then rubbed his forehead, “Shirley, you forgot that people have different degrees of closeness! Kiera is only Poppy Hill’s daughter. In my heart, only your daughter is my daughter. I won’t hesitate to choose Isla over Kiera if I had to choose between their lives.”
He gripped Mrs. Olsen’s shoulders, “Shirley, rember, no matter how outstanding Kiera is, she is unrelated to our family of three. If Isla strays because you favor Kiera, won’t you regret it later?”
Mrs. Olsen was startled.
Taylor Olsen then slowly said, “In the future, let’s keep our distance from her and live our lives peacefully as a family of three.”
Mrs. Olsen clenched her fists, slowly lowered her gaze, but her heart felt empty.
When the two reached the car, Isla had already regrouped her emotions.
A family of three drove to the hospital.
Today, the Allen family planned to return to Clance, and Mrs. Olsen went with Isla Olsen to apologize.
Isla Olsen behaved very well, knowing well that only by obtaining the Allen family’s forgiveness could Jake Horton possibly not call off the engagent. For the past few days, Jake Horton had been ignoring her, and she had been panicking.
Upon arrival, Mrs. Olsen sincerely apologized.
The Allen family of four had all their luggage packed and were just waiting to leave.
Rebecca Allen craned her neck to look outside, anticipating the appearance of her benefactor.
The benefactor had promised her to co and see her off.
But ti had already passed; why hadn’t the benefactor arrived yet?
anwhile, after Mrs. Olsen apologized to Mrs. and Mr. Allen, she approached Rebecca Allen. Suddenly, she pulled out a property ownership certificate from her bag and handed it to Rebecca Allen, “Miss Allen, Isla spoke inappropriately, which hurt you. I know nothing can truly make up for the harm she caused you, and the Allen family is not in need of this money, but this is a gesture from my heart.”
Rebecca Allen was taken aback and looked towards Mr. Allen.
Mrs. Allen was also slightly displeased, feeling that Mrs. Olsen was trying to dismiss the issue with money. She stepped forward to take the property ownership certificate, intending to give it back to Mrs. Olsen, when she suddenly caught sight of the information on the certificate and was completely stunned.
This, this isn’t the most famous Golden Road Estate in Clance?!
The property price in this estate wasn’t outrageously high, but the real value lay in the connections of the hoowners!
The Golden Road Estate was priceless! Countless people wanted to buy into that estate but couldn’t…
She hadn’t expected Mrs. Olsen to own a house there.
The gift was not rely a house but the connections in Clance!
Mrs. Allen looked at Mr. Allen, overwheld with surprise.
Mr. Allen hurriedly tried to decline, “We cannot accept this!”
However, Mrs. Olsen shook her head, “I’m now settled in Oceanion and don’t wish to involve myself in matters of Clance anymore. This is our way of apologizing; please don’t refuse.”
Only then did Mr. Allen accept it.
After presenting the apology gift, Mrs. Olsen left with Taylor Olsen and Isla Olsen.
Once they had departed, Mrs. Allen couldn’t help but express her admiration, “Mrs. Olsen truly has courage; such a gift, and she just gives it away!”
Mr. Allen sighed, “You haven’t t Lady South, her grace surpasses Mrs. Olsen’s…”
Mrs. Allen frowned, “It’s just a pity, both mother and daughter are such distinguished figures, yet they have such a disgraceful daughter!”
Mr. Allen also frowned at the ntion of Isla Olsen.
He suddenly thought of Kiera Olsen…
Thinking about it, Kiera Olsen and her mother, Lady South, looked very much alike, leading him to initially think that Lady South was Kiera Olsen’s grandmother…
Mr. Allen paused briefly, then suddenly asked, “Isn’t Miss Olsen coming?”
“She can’t make it.”
Frankie Allen, holding his smartphone, said with a frown, “It seems Miss Olsen has got herself into so trouble.”
Rebecca Allen spoke firmly, “I can’t leave; my benefactor is in trouble now, and I can’t abandon her to return to Clance at this mont!”
