Ellis saw Uncle Olsen’s expression and couldn’t help himself from asking, “Uncle, since Mrs. Olsen
said she didn’t want to see you, why don’t you just go back? She’s heartbroken now, and your
presence here is not making things any better.”
Uncle Olsen glared at him.
Ellis imdiately realized that his comnt might have
been too harsh.
He coughed and then said, “You just ntioned sothing was amiss, so what is it that’s not right?”
Uncle Olsen lowered his eyes. “Miss South has always been strong-willed. Her daughter has died, and
the murderer hasn’t been found. Would she ask to leave? When she sent the ssage, my first
thought was that she would want to avenge her daughter.”
Jodie South was never a weak character.
Her health wasn’t good, and she was fainting frequently, but a person’s nature wouldn’t change.
Ellis couldn’t help but ask, “Then why don’t you just barge in and ask her directly?”
Uncle Olsen gave him a sideways glance.
Ellis imdiately understood sothing. “No way, no way, have I stumbled upon sothing? Ha!
Uncle, you’re not afraid of anything, but you’re afraid of Mrs. Olsen getting angry?”
Uncle Olsen was speechless.
He wondered what he should do with this idiotic
nephew.
He did fear that it was Jodie’s wish for him not to
interfere, and if he disobeyed and barged in, Jodie might end up hating him.
Uncle Olsen silently sighed and looked down at his phone.
Unexpectedly, after sending out the ssage, there was still no response from the other side.
It was just like last ti when they made plans but he had to rush off with Jodie to the sea to search for
soone, and while waiting for the retrieval process, he rembered the appointnt and sent her a
203 eting Again
ssage.
The young friend also didn’t reply at all.
At the ti, he thought the young friend was angry, but now that he thought about it, when they t at
the Horton family’s condolence visit, she didn’t seem to hold a grudge against him!
Uncle Olsen was puzzled and scratching his head, but he quickly thought of sothing, opened
WhatsApp, found “Howard,” and sent a ssage. “Where are you
staying?”
Howard indeed replied imdiately. “Four Seasons Hotel. Uncle Olsen, is there sothing you need?”
Uncle Olsen. “I’m coming to find you. I’ll take your whole family to dinner tonight.”
It was a gesture to make up for missing the appointnt with the young friend last ti.
After seeing Mrs. Olsen, Keira gave several orders to Samuel to find the murderer as soon as possible.
When she ultimately parted with Samuel, and he asked, “Boss, when will you be able to reclaim your
identity?”
Keira knitted her brows and said, “We’ll talk about it
after the murderer is found.”
Only when she knew who the murderer was and why they wanted to kill them, and could ensure her
own safety, could she live under her true identity again.
Keira arrived at the Four Seasons Hotel.
Just as she found the private room where Howard and his family were staying, she saw Howard and
his mother excitedly preparing clothes. Howard’s mother even took out Amy’s dress to dress her up
beautifully.
Glancing at Keira, Howard lifted his chin and scoffed. “You’re just in ti to co bac for dinner. Hurry
up and change into sothing more formal. Don’t embarrass tonight!”
Keira paused slightly. “Dinner?”
Howard then excitedly opened his mouth. “Yes, today Uncle Olsen and I hit it off imdiately. Do you
know who Uncle Olsen is? He’s the one in charge of the Clance Olsen family, one of the five major
families of Clance. He just sent a ssage saying he is inviting us to dinner tonight!”
Howard’s mother chid in right away. “Son, you are so capable, to think that coming to Oceanion we
could encounter such distinguished people, and you’ve managed to get connected! My god, that’s the
Clance Olsen family! Normally, we could only see such people in financial magazines, and he has
taken a fancy to
you!”
When Keira heard Uncle Olsen’s na, she was slightly
stunned.
Before, Uncle Olsen had frequently wanted to et her, but she hadn’t gone to see him, and now that
she had beco Keera, she suddenly got the opportunity.
But how could soone like Howard ever get in touch with Uncle Olsen?
She glanced at Howard and saw that he was indeed handso, with a refined and scholarly
appearance-a truly good-looking fellow. It must have been this handso face that had chard
Keera!
Little did anyone know he was just an empty suit!
The look of disdain in Keira’s eyes made Howard chuckle. “I told you, I’m really good at business.
Today, I had a chat with Uncle Olsen about the future
economic trends, and he listened patiently throughout.
Now he has invited to dinner, which must an he thinks highly of my insights! Alright, let’s go, we
can’t keep Uncle Olsen waiting!”-
Keira didn’t bother with idle chit-chat.
Since she had decided to investigate her sister’s death under the guise of Keera, she would play along
with them to avoid complications.
She bowed her head and changed into a suitable tweed
coat.
Then she went into the bathroom to carefully wash off
the iodine on her face…
Although the color wouldn’t fade imdiately, at least it wasn’t as yellow as it had been during the day.
Once they were dressed, they headed downstairs.
Howard chose Fragrance Hall on the car’s navigation and started the vehicle.
Howard’s mother asked, “What place is Fragrance Hall?”
Howard imdiately replied with pride, “Fragrance Hall is a famous private restaurant in Oceanion. I’ve

just heard about it. It seems to be owned by Mrs. Horton, and it’s hard to get in without a reservation!
The elites of Oceanion love to dine here. Uncle Olsen inviting us to eat here shows he really values
!”
Howard’s mother imdiately glared at Keira. “Son, I have always known you are destined for great
things. You’ve always been the most impressive in our village. What a sha to marry Keera!
Speaking of which, your status don’t sound good when you ntion it. Keera, on, say you have married

oward imdiately said, “It doesn’t matter if a girl hanges her surna or not. Keera, when you get
back to Clance, just transfer the company shares and legal representative status to , and add my
na to the property ownership certificate…”
Keira ered inwardly but didn’t speak.
was going to assu her sister’s identity, she d reclaim everything that belonged to her sister!
But for now, she couldn’t be bothered to argue about these things.
Seeing Keira’s lack of response, Howard’s mother beca irate. “What kind of attitude is that? You are
eating Howard’s food, living in Howard’s house, and even dining in a private restaurant like Fragrance
Hall, all thanks to Howard’s connections! You must change your na once we return! Have you heard
?”
Keira’s expression turned cold, and Howard intervened. “Okay, Mom, that’s enough, we’re here.”
Howard’s mother gave her a fierce look, “Take care of that burdenso girl, and make sure to behave
properly later. Don’t get dazzled by the wealth and humiliate my son. If you do, I’ll punish you and that
burdenso girl severely afterward!”
They parked the car and had just gotten out when soone greeted them, “Is this Mr. Smith’s family?
Uncle Olsen has been waiting for you in the private
room for a long ti.”
Howard imdiately smiled. “Yes, that’s us, please lead the way…

The assistant to Uncle Olsen held a different status in
<
Clance, and people like Howard couldn’t afford to act superior in front of him.
The assistant smiled and walked ahead.
Howard and his mother entered the grand Fragrance
Hall first.
The place was elegantly decorated with a classic feel, and there were little streams and bridges. The
whole atmosphere was distinct.
Howard and his mother cautiously surveyed their surroundings, and his mother even whispered a
warning. “Keera, hold that burdenso girl tight. Everything here is incredibly valuable, and if you
accidentally break sothing, selling you wouldn’t
cover the cost!”
Keira snorted to herself.
Finally, they arrived at the door to the private room. Howard nervously adjusted his clothes, and after
proudly glancing back at Keira, he pushed open the door.
Keira looked in indifferently and caught a glimpse of a mature man sitting inside.

He was brewing tea, and upon hearing the door open, he looked up.
His subtle movents exuded an aura of nobility, inspiring a sense of awe.
Howard’s face brimd with eagerness to please, and his mother barely dared to breathe.
Only Keira paused for a mont, then cried out,
“Handso Uncle?”
