Ellis chuckled bitterly when he heard what she said.
He just couldn’t understand why Mary was so persistent about having this amniocentesis done.
He had already gone through three exams and all
showed azoospermia; it was impossible for him to have
children…
When Keira was about to leave, Uncle Olsen asked all
seven brothers to accompany her and Mary to the car.
On the way to the parking lot.
Charles couldn’t help but lean in. “Little sister, do you want to know what happened to Howard and his
mother?”
Keira couldn’t help but glance at him.
Charles was the youngest son.
He had been calling her “little sister” before, and Keira didn’t correct him, but now..
Keira coughed. “How old are you?”
Charles said, Little sister, I’m about to celebrate my
21st birthday soon. I’m studying at Tsipin University.”
Tsipin University is the top-ranked institution in the country, located in Clance.
These children of wealthy families might be able to spend money to attend famous overseas
universities, but Tsipin University wasn’t so easy to get into.
Charles getting into Tsipin University ant he was truly a scholarly type.
Keira couldn’t help but twitch her lips. “I’m about to
turn 23 years old.”
The rather naive Charles still hadn’t realized the
problem. “Oh, and then? Little sister, do you want a birthday present?”
Keira was speechless.
She twitched her lips. “My point is, you should be calling ‘big sister”.”
Charles fell silent.
He was stunned!!
Keira then looked toward the Olsen family’s sixth son. “How old are you?”
He smiled and said. “I’m older than you, I’m 23 years
and one month old!”
Keira said, “So I have six older brothers and one
younger brother.”
Charles couldn’t believe it.
He felt like crying, as he had thought the family finally had a younger sister, but it turned out this
“younger sister” was actually an older cousin!!
He wasn’t happy!
However, this didn’t affect his affection toward Keira, as he leaned in close again. “Then, dear big little
sister, do you know what happened to Howard and his
mother?”
Keira thought, “What’s with this ss of a title?”
But facing soone with a face similar to the faces of Ellis and Jas, full of innocence and the clear-
eyed look characteristic of university students…
He looked quite endearing.
She asked, “What happened to them?”
Charles chuckled. “Just now I saw Uncle Olsen
instructing the bodyguards. They sent them off to a pyramid sche organization, which specializes in
human trafficking, to so countries to the east. Their fate is to beco trafficked people!”
Keira didn’t see that coming.
She couldn’t help but twitch her lips. “Wait, does our family even deal in that kind of business?”
Jas imdiately explained. “Of course not. You mustn’t have any misunderstandings about our
family! Our business is quite diverse, so we have those kinds. of connections. Everything else is legal
and compliant.”
Keira then nodded in relief.
After all, this was Crera!
But she didn’t notice that, after Jas finished talking about being legal and compliant, Ellis glanced at
him and imdiately showed a hint of a sneer.
Feeling the ridicule from his older brother, Jas coughed and covered up his mont of unease.
As they chatted, they arrived at the parking lot.
The car that Keera drove in Clance was a black Chery, a dostic brand, fitting for the Keera’s style
and
economic status.
Charles noticed the car and imdiately said. “Cousin sister, let give you a better car! Isn’t it
inappropriate for you to drive this old thing?”
Keira, however, smiled. “I’m used to it; it’s pretty good.”
Now, this car had already been sent for modifications by Lewis.
The engine had been replaced, the windows had been changed to bulletproof glass, and even the
tal shell had been replaced with composite materials used for manufacturing airplanes.
All of this was because Lewis feared she might encounter so crisis again…
It just looked unassuming on the outside, but in reality, whether it was about driving performance or
safety, it was much stronger than a regular car.
Charles wanted to say sothing more, but Jas lowered his voice and said, “Sister, although Mr.
Horton made his stance clear today, you also can’t go too far. This gigolo, although he looks rather
good, you should also consider Mr. Horton. That kind of person is
a real talent. Your gigolo is a college graduate who’s
(
interested only in your money. Don’t be deceived!”
Keira was speechless.
Where on earth did Lewis resemble a fresh college
graduate?!
He was twenty-eight years old, okay?!!
She twitched the corner of her mouth and nodded.
Finally, after bidding farewell to her seven brothers, she got into the car with Mary.
Keira sat in the passenger seat.
Mary went to sit in the back seat, without giving Ellis another glance.
The car started moving quickly.
Mary sighed silently, not wanting the trouble of seeing Ellis to disturb Keira’s happiness, so she found a
topic
and said, “Keera, what’s the deal with Lewis anyway? Are you really going to marry that second-hand
old
man?”
Keira didn’t know what to say.
She silently glanced at Lewis.
She saw the man’s gaze fixed straight ahead, a sharp
glint flashing in his deep eyes, and she imdiately
coughed once, turning to Mary.
“Well, actually, Lewis is quite nice.”
Mary frowned. “He’s quite nice with a family background beyond reproach, but you still have to choose
between the gigolo and Lewis, right?”
Upon hearing this, Lewis imdiately glanced at Keira with the corner of his eye.
He saw her blink and reply slowly, “Only children make choices. Adults, like , want them all!”
Mary was shocked.
The corners of Lewis’s lips couldn’t help but curl up.
He suddenly rembered when he first t Keira,
after she had picked up his grandmother, she had called him saying, “Your elder is in my hands…”
At the ti, he thought this girl was really cheeky!
Now, she finally regained so of her past playful charm and didn’t look so burdened anymore.
anwhile, the Olsen family mbers had already
returned ho.
Jas, with his head down, was sowhat unhappy, “Uncle Olsen, Ellis, do you think Keera refuses to
move back ho because she holds a grudge against ?”
Ellis didn’t even bother to speak to his younger
brother.
Uncle Olsen didn’t pay him any attention, either.
It was Charles who comforted him. “I think it’s alright. When she spoke to you, there was a smile in her
eyes.”
“Really?” Jas’s eyes lit up, but soon he beca puzzled again. “Then why does she refuse to co
back ho? Is there soone she dislikes in this
house?”
Those words stunned everyone briefly, and then their gazes turned in unison to Victoria.
Victoria was speechless.
Feeling like a lamb among tigers under the gaze of her seven brothers, she quickly said, “I did have
misunderstandings with Keera before knowing her identity, but we’ve already made up…”
“Is that so?” Jas stroked his chin, “Has she forgiven
A/10
you then?”
Victoria didn’t know what to say.
She twitched the corner of her mouth and lowered her head, her eyes flashing with resentnt.
The seven brothers were definitely doing this on
purpose!
They were pushing her to apologize to Keera.
She sighed and suddenly said, “It’s my fault. If it’s because of that she doesn’t want to return ho,
then perhaps I should move out first…”
She put on a tearful expression and slowly lifted her
head.
She was expecting to face pleas and persuasion, but what she encountered was…
