Chapter 195

Chapter 195 Wendy’s voice was filled with excitement, but Elysia gently reassured her, “The important thing is the job.”

“Alright, then I’ll leave it to you, Ms. Rosewood,” Wendy said.

“No problem,” Elysia replied.

Holden watched Elysia, who had decided for him without even asking his opinion. His eyes dimmed a bit. He wondered, ‘Is Elysia trying to get rid of me? Does she not want me to stay here?‘ He could not help feeling upset at the thought.

13 Elysia had already hung up the phone. She looked at the unhappy Holden and handed him the phone. Her tone softened. “You love your job, always striving for perfection and not allowing any mistakes. How could you just give that up to stay with me?”

Seeing that Holden still looked down, Elysia thought for a moment and then said something she hadn’t wanted to say, “We still have time. It’s not like once you go back to work, we’ll never see each other again.”

“So, you’re not trying to get rid of me because you don’t like me being here?” Holden’s eyes sparkled with hope as he looked at her.

Elysia was amused by his words. It turned out Holden wasn’t upset because she had decided for him, but because he thought she wanted him to leave. Holden’s mood finally lifted.

He thought, ‘As long as Elysia likes me, everything is fine. She is a warm–hearted sister for worrying about me. And Elysia just said we still had time. Does that mean she accepts me?‘ Holden couldn’t stop smiling as he looked at Elysia.

“Alright, ge fo I’ll you to go back now,” Elysia said.

313 Holden nodded. “Thanks, Elysia.”

By the time they returned to Jorlandia from Sivro, it was already late. But at least Holden was back, and Wendy’s worries were eased. She looked at Holden, who seemed a bit off today.

He was usually so dedicated to his work, but today he had left everything behind and gone to Sivro, refusing to come back. What was even more surprising was that Holden seemed in a much better mood after returning from Sivro.

Wendy wondered, ‘Could it be because he met Elysia?‘ Wendy’s eyes twinkled with curiosity as she looked at him. “Holden, can you tell me what good thing happened to you? You seem so happy.”

“I did have a good thing happen,” Holden replied.

“What is it?” Wendy was intrigued and sat down opposite him, her curiosity piqued even more.

“Wendy, is it really okay for an agent to be this nosy?” Holden teased.

“What’s wrong with that? I’m just concerned about my client. I can’t wait to hear what could make our Holden break his principles,” Wendy said, her eyes sparkling with interest.

She had been Holden’s agent for so long that they were more like friends. Holden trusted her and said directly, “I found my sister.”

Wendy was taken aback and wondered, ‘Sister? Didn’t Holden’s only sister pass away three years ago? Where does this sister come from? Is he just hallucinating from missing her too much? He is talking nonsense!‘

Worried, she began, “Holden, you...”

“Wendy, I know what you’re thinking. Don’t worry, I’m fine, and I’m not talking nonsense. Besides Evelyn, I have another 1/3 Chapter 195 sister. She’s Evelyn’s twin. You’ve met her too–Elysia, Holden said.

Wendy’s eyes widened in shock. She thought, ‘Elysia is Holder’s sister? That is quite a bombshell. No wonder Yaysia wod Evelyn look so alike. Now everything makes sense–twins. That is the reason. But why haart Holden ever mentioned it before?‘

升 Although she was curious, she didn’t voice her doubts. As long as Holden had found his sister, maybe Holden could finally move on from the grief over Evelyn.

Wendy remembered a time when Holden had visited Milton School and came out in a much better mood than mual. He had even asked her if there could be two people who looked alike in the world.

Wendy didn’t remember how she answered. Maybe she said yes. She thought, Now it seems Holden met Elysia at that school.

Since then, every time he sees Elysia, he gets happy. So, it is Elysia who has healed him?

In Sivro, Emma had heard rumors about Elysia. At first, she couldn’t believe it. But after she went to the Rosewood residence and checked things out, she finally confirmed that Elysia was not the Rosewoods biological daughter.

She thought, ‘What does Elysia have to brag about then? She’s a foster child like me. No, technically, I’m a foster child, while Elysia is an orphan with no parents: Comparing herself to Elysia, Emma felt superior. She thought she was better than Elysia now.

Emma smiled as she looked at the villa in front of her. She thought, ‘With Elysia gone, it is my turn to return. After all, I have been raised by Scott. With Elysia out of the picture, I am the only daughter of Scott.

‘If I go back now, Scott, considering our past father–daughter relationship, will surely let me back into the Rosewood family: The thought of becoming the Rosewood heiress again filled her with uncontrollable joy.

She rang the doorbell, and Mary opened the door with surprise. “Emma, what brings you here?”

Emma was annoyed by the title. She glanced at Mary disdainfully, thinking, ‘How clueless. I’m about to return to the Rosewood family and reclaim my position as the heiress. She’ll serve me and follow my lead. If she offends me now, she’ll regret it later.‘

Although she thought this, she put on a good show on her face. “Mary, I’ve heard about what happened at home. I’m worried about my parents and came to check on them.”

Mary looked at her, puzzled by her words, wondering, ‘Has Emma already known about her background?‘

Seeing that Mary wasn’t moving, Emma’s face turned displeased. “Mary, I’m here to see Mom and Dad. Could you please open the door for me?”

Emma’s tone and attitude annoyed Mary. It would have been fine before. Mary was just a housekeeper, and it was normal for the masters to show their displeasure. But now, Emma wasn’t part of the family anymore.

She was an illegitimate child, and her bossy behavior was over the top. Mary thought, ‘Compared to Elysia who just left the Rosewood family, Emma seems out of place. Both of them are not daughters of the Rosewood family, but their personalities are completely different.

‘Elysia is very kind to the servants and never looks down on us like Emma does. But now, Emma’s personality seems to have a root. She is really like her mother.

Thinking these, Mary’s eyes dimmed. She had originally wanted to remind Emma not to annoy Scott, but now she thought it was better not to bother. Emma wouldn’t appreciate it. So she opened the door and said with her head lowered, “Emma, please come in.”
